Dickkopf-related protein 1 (Dkk1) regulates the accumulation and function of myeloid derived suppressor cells in cancer [PDF]
Tumor–stroma interactions contribute to tumorigenesis. Tumor cells can educate the stroma at primary and distant sites to facilitate the recruitment of heterogeneous populations of immature myeloid cells, known as myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs).

Insights into GABA receptor signalling in TM3 Leydig cells [PDF]
gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) is an emerging signalling molecule in endocrine organs, since it is produced by endocrine cells and acts via GABA(A) receptors in a paracrine/autocrine fashion.

Cyclophilin A and EMMPRIN (CD147) in cardiovascular diseases [PDF]
Cyclophilin A (CyPA) is an abundantly expressed intracellular protein. It exerts a variety of functions due to its peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase (PPIase) activity. When released into the extracellular space, CyPA binds to its extracellular receptor CD147 (EMMPRIN) and thereby initiates a cascade of inflammatory processes.

Extracellular cyclophilin A possesses chemotaxic activity in cattle [PDF]
Cyclophilin A (CyPA) was originally discovered in bovine thymocytes as a cytosolic binding protein of the immunosuppressive drug cyclosporine A. Recent studies have revealed that in mice and humans, CyPA is secreted from cells in injured or infected tissues and plays a role in recruiting inflammatory cells in those tissues. Here we found that in cattle

Role of RNA Interference (RNAi) in the Moss Physcomitrella patens [PDF]
RNA interference (RNAi) is a mechanism that regulates genes by either transcriptional (TGS) or posttranscriptional gene silencing (PTGS), required for genome maintenance and proper development of an organism.
