Single-nucleus RNA sequencing of human pancreatic islets identifies novel gene sets and distinguishes β-cell subpopulations with dynamic transcriptome profiles

open access: yesGenome Medicine, 2023
Background Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) provides valuable insights into human islet cell types and their corresponding stable gene expression profiles. However, this approach requires cell dissociation that complicates its utility in vivo.

Bacterial lipopolysaccharide potentiates type II collagen-induced arthritis in mice

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 1992
Collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) is an immunologically relevant animal model of human rheumatoid arthritis. Studies comparing the disease incidence in genetically susceptible male and female DBA/1LacJ mice demonstrated that under low density/low stress ...

Periodontitis and bone metabolism

open access: yesClinical Cases in Mineral and Bone Metabolism, 2015
Periodontitis is a plaque induced disease characterized by tissue destruction. The extent of the alveolar bone loss depends on the host response stimulated by bacterial infection. Recently researchers have focused on the role of the immune system, of RANK/RANKL/OPG pathway and of cytokines network.

Differential regulation of TNF-α and IL-1β production from endotoxin stimulated human monocytes by phosphodiesterase inhibitors

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 1992
The effect of selective PDE-I (vinpocetine), PDE-III (milrinone, CI-930), PDE-IV (rolipram, nitroquazone), and PDE-V (zaprinast) isozyme inhibitors on TNF-α and IL-1β production from LPS stimulated human monocytes was investigated.

Transfer RNAs-derived small RNAs and their application potential in multiple diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
The role of tRNAs is best known as adapter components of translational machinery. According to the central dogma of molecular biology, DNA is transcribed to RNA and in turn is translated into proteins, in which tRNA outstands by its role of the cellular ...
