Hepatic encephalopathy: a neurochemical, neuroanatomical, and neuropsychological study. [PDF]
Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is normally diagnosed by neuropsychological (NP) tests, which are not very specific and do not reveal the underlying pathology.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

The literature review summarizes the current data on the biological properties of inositols - a natural group of polyols (sugars) classified as cyclohexanols. These compounds are widely represented in food products (cereals, legumes, nuts, seeds, melons,

An association of boswellia, betaine and myo-inositol (Eumastós) in the treatment of mammographic breast density. A randomized, double-blind study [PDF]
Mammographic breast density is a recognized risk factor for breast cancer. The causes that lead to the proliferation of the glandular breast tissue and, therefore, to an increase of breast density are still unclear.

Glioma cells mainly express the endothelin receptor EDNRB, while EDNRA is restricted to a perivascular tumor subpopulation. Endothelin signaling reduces glioma cell proliferation while promoting migration and a proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition associated with poor prognosis. This pathway activates Ca2+, K+, ERK, and STAT3 signalings and is regulated

Skeletal muscle lipids. II. Changes in phospholipid composition in man from fetal to middle age
Phospholipid compositions were determined in samples of gastrocnemius muscles of individuals from fetal stage to the age of 55 yr. The lipids were separated by thin-layer chromatography. In order to enable characterization of the individual phospholipids,

Pertussis Toxin-sensitive Activation of Phospholipase C by the C5a and fMet-Leu-Phe Receptors [PDF]
Signal transduction pathways that mediate C5a and fMet-Leu-Phe (fMLP)-induced pertussis toxin (PTx)-sensitive activation of phospholipase C (PLC) have been investigated using a cotransfection assay system in COS-7 cells.

A Solanum tuberosum inositol phosphate kinase (StITPK1) displaying inositol phosphate–inositol phosphate and inositol phosphate–ADP phosphotransferase activities [PDF]
We describe a multifunctional inositol polyphosphate kinase/phosphotransferase from Solanum tuberosum, StITPKα (GenBank accession number: EF362784), hereafter called StITPK1. StITPK1 displays inositol 3,4,5,6‐tetrakisphosphate 1‐kinase activity: K m = 27 μM, and V max = 19 nmol min−1 mg−1.

ZFAS1 is a lncRNA promoting cell proliferation and migration, exhibiting high expression in various cancers. It is conserved, widely expressed, and produces multiple splice variants with unclear roles. We identified several splice variants in hepatocyte models, and found that inhibiting or suppressing regulators of the unfolded protein response (PERK ...
