The Role of Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1) in the Control of Neuroendocrine Regulation of Growth

open access: yesCells, 2021
In mammals, the neuroendocrine system, which includes the communication between the hypothalamus and the pituitary, plays a major role in controlling body growth and cellular metabolism. GH produced from the pituitary somatotroph is considered the master

DEVELOPMENT OF MURINE STEM CELLS WITH CONDITIONAL KNOCKOUT OF HUMANIZED SNCA GENE

open access: yesФармация и фармакология (Пятигорск), 2023
α-synuclein is one of the key molecular links in the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease. The accumulated data indicate that pathogenic mutations in the Snca gene are associated with the development of neurodegenerative brain damage, indicating the ...

Electrophysiological properties of mouse and epitope-tagged human cardiac sodium channel Nav1.5 expressed in HEK293 cells [v2; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/10d]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2013
Background: The pore-forming subunit of the cardiac sodium channel, Nav1.5, has been previously found to be mutated in genetically determined arrhythmias. Nav1.5 associates with many proteins that regulate its function and cellular localisation. In order

Comprehensive microRNA analysis across genome-edited colorectal cancer organoid models reveals miR-24 as a candidate regulator of cell survival

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2022
Somatic mutations drive colorectal cancer (CRC) by disrupting gene regulatory mechanisms. Distinct combinations of mutations can result in unique changes to regulatory mechanisms leading to variability in the efficacy of therapeutics.

Erroneous Belief that Digestive Stability Predicts Allergenicity May Lead to Greater Risk for Novel Food Proteins

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
There continues to be an erroneous belief that allergens (especially food allergens) are more resistant to gastrointestinal digestion than non-allergens.

The PTEN/PI3K/AKT Pathway in vivo, cancer mouse models

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2014
PTEN negatively regulates PI3K signalling by dephosphorylating PIP3 to PIP2. AKT is activated downstream of PIP3 to mediate physiologic processes. Furthermore, substantial crosstalk exists with other signalling networks at all levels of the PI3K pathway.

Adaptation and selection shape clonal evolution of tumors during residual disease and recurrence

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
The cellular composition of recurrent tumors can provide insight into resistance to therapy and inform on second line therapies. Here, using a genetically modified mouse, the authors perform barcoding experiments of the primary tumors to allow them to ...
