Pion form factor using domain wall valence and asqtad sea quarks [PDF]
We compute the pion electromagnetic form factor in a hybrid calculation with domain wall valence quarks and improved staggered (asqtad) sea quarks. This method can easily be extended to rho-to-gamma-pi transition form factors.

A novel technique for selective NF-kappa B inhibition in Kupffer cells: contrary effects in fulminant hepatitis and ischaemia-reperfusion. [PDF]
Background and aims: The transcription factor nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB) has risen as a promising target for anti-inflammatory therapeutics. In the liver, however, NFkB inhibition mediates both damaging and protective effects.

An indirect negative autoregulatory mechanism involved in hepatocyte nuclear factor-1 gene expression [PDF]
Recent studies have revealed that hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 (HNF-4) is an essential positive regulator of another liver enriched transcription factor HNF-1, defining a transcriptional hierarchy between the two factors operating in hepatocytes. To assess the possible autoregulation of the HNF-1 gene we have examined the effect of HNF-1 on its own ...

Liver‐specific knockout of N6‐methyladenosine (m6A) methyltransferase METTL3 significantly accelerated hepatic tumor initiation under various oncogenic challenges, contrary to the previously reported oncogenic role of METTL3 in liver cancer cell lines or xenograft models. Mechanistically, METTL3 deficiency reduced m6A deposition on Manf transcripts and

We studied the effect of preoperative hepatocyte transplantation on the prevention of liver failure in cirrhotic rats after hepatic resection. Two groups of Lewis rats were rendered cirrhotic by IP injection of 1% dimethylnitrosamine and were subjected ...

Effects of Diabetes Mellitus on Hepatocyte Nuclear Factor 1 Decrease Albumin Gene Transcription [PDF]
We have previously reported that albumin gene transcription is reduced in diabetes mellitus (DM). The present study explored the mechanism by which albumin gene transcription is down-regulated in DM. Deletional studies and displacement of factors binding to site B of the albumin promoter indicated that the repressive effects of DM are mediated by ...

RIPK1 protects from TNF-α-mediated liver damage during hepatitis [PDF]
Cell death of hepatocytes is a prominent characteristic in the pathogenesis of liver disease, while hepatolysis is a starting point of inflammation in hepatitis and loss of hepatic function.

Long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs) occupy an abundant fraction of the eukaryotic transcriptome and an emerging area in cancer research. Regulation by lncRNAs is based on their subcellular localization in HNSCC. This cartoon shows the various functions of lncRNAs in HNSCC discussed in this review.

The significance of hepatocyte nuclear factors (HNFs) in β-cell development and function has been generally recognized in humans, as evidenced by their associations with cases of maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY).

Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a genetically heterogeneous subtype of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) characterised by early onset, autosomal dominant inheritance and a primary defect in insulin secretion.
