Placental growth factor inhibition modulates the interplay between hypoxia and unfolded protein response in hepatocellular carcinoma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a leading cause of cancer-related mortality. We previously showed that the inhibition of placental growth factor (PlGF) exerts antitumour effects and induces vessel normalisation, possibly reducing hypoxia ...

Weak lensing mass reconstructions of the ESO Distant Cluster Survey

open access: yes, 2005
We present weak lensing mass reconstructions for the 20 high-redshift clusters i n the ESO Distant Cluster Survey. The weak lensing analysis was performed on deep, 3-color optical images taken with VLT/FORS2, using a composite galaxy catalog with ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Detecting Associations Between Body Mass Index and Bone Mineral Density in Patients with Fractures of Different Localizations

open access: yesКреативная хирургия и онкология, 2023
Introduction. Osteoporosis is a multifactorial metabolic disease that increases the risk of bone fracture because of reduced bone mineral density.

Colorectal cancer‐derived FGF19 is a metabolically active serum biomarker that exerts enteroendocrine effects on mouse liver

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Meta‐transcriptome analysis identified FGF19 as a peptide enteroendocrine hormone associated with colorectal cancer prognosis. In vivo xenograft models showed release of FGF19 into the blood at levels that correlated with tumor volumes. Tumoral‐FGF19 altered murine liver metabolism through FGFR4, thereby reducing bile acid synthesis and increasing ...

Effect of rheumatoid arthritis activity on corneal densitometry, curvature, thickness, and lens densitometry

open access: yesJournal of the Egyptian Ophthalmological Society
Purpose To evaluate the effect of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) activity on the corneal densitometry, corneal curvature (CC), central corneal thickness (CCT), and lens densitometry and compare these parameters with healthy control patients.

Physical Therapy to Prevent Osteopenia in Preterm Infants: A Systematic Review

open access: yesChildren, 2021
Background: During the last trimester of pregnancy, about 80% of the infant’s calcium is incorporated, and for this reason, preterm infants have less bone mineralization compared to those born at term.

The value of bone mineral density assessment by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry for prediction of cardiovascular mortality in patients treated with hemodialysis [PDF]

open access: yesТерапевтический архив, 2020
Aim. Determine whether bone mineral density (BMD) assessed by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry can be used as predictor of increased risk of death in hemodialysis patients. Materials and methods.

Reactive oxygen species regulate caspase-11 expression and activation of the non-canonical NLRP3 inflammasome during enteric pathogen infection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Enteropathogenic and enterohemorrhagic bacterial infections in humans are a severe cause of morbidity and mortality. Although NOD-like receptors (NLRs) NOD2 and NLRP3 have important roles in the generation of protective immune responses to enteric ...

Normalization of spine densitometry

open access: yesJournal of Bone and Mineral Research, 1994
Abstract We investigated several transformations of bone mineral content (BMC) and area density (BMD), in particular volumetric density (BMAD), to ascertain the influence on (1) body size dependence, (2) diagnostic sensitivity, and (3) precision.
