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

Molecular 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 ...

The relationship of protein conservation and sequence length

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2002
Background In general, the length of a protein sequence is determined by its function and the wide variance in the lengths of an organism's proteins reflects the diversity of specific functional roles for these proteins.

The Bond-Energy Bond-Order (BEBO) Model of Chemisorption [PDF]

, 1973
The bond-energy bond-order (BEBO) model of chemisorption allows an estimate to be made of the interaction energy between a gaseous specie and a solid surface as a function of either bond length or bond order, i.e., the length or order of either the gas ...

Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 increases metastatic potential and aggressiveness in colorectal cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1) is a cancer stem cell marker in several malignancies. We established a novel epithelial cell line from rectal adenocarcinoma with unique overexpression of this enzyme. Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 led to increased invasive capacity and metastatic potential, the inhibition of proliferation activity, and ultimately ...

Length-weight and length-length relationships, Relative condition factor and Fulton’s condition factor of Five Cyprinid species in Anzali wetland, southwest of the Caspian Sea

Caspian Journal of Environmental Sciences, 2012
This study was conducted to determine length-weight and length-length relationships, relative condition factor (Krel) and Fulton’s condition factor (K) for five species including Scardinius erythrophtalmus, Carassius auratus gibelio, Cyprinus carpio ...

Relationship between interpersonal sensitivity and leukocyte telomere length

BMC Medical Genetics, 2017
Background Telomeres are repetitive DNA sequences located at the ends of chromosomes, and telomere length represents a biological marker for cellular aging.

Length-weight and length-length relationships for six fish species from Zohreh River, Iran

International Journal of Aquatic Biology, 2017
The present study reports Length-weight and length-length parameters for six fish species belonging to four families from the Zohreh River. The weight-length relationships were estimated using the equation W= 𝛼Lb. The values of the slope parameter (b) varied between 2.72 and 3.72, with a mean±SD of 3.015±0.18.

COMP–PMEPA1 axis promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in breast cancer cells

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study reveals that cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in breast cancer. We identify PMEPA1 (protein TMEPAI) as a novel COMP‐binding partner that mediates EMT via binding to the TSP domains of COMP, establishing the COMP–PMEPA1 axis as a key EMT driver in breast cancer.

The Relationship between Mean Length at Maturity and Maximum Length in Coral Reef Fish

Fishes
This article proposes a mechanism that triggers first maturation and spawning in coral reef (bony) fish, which allows for predicting their length at first maturity. Thus, mean lengths at first maturity (Lm) and the corresponding maximum lengths (Lmax) in

Length-weight relationships of marine fishes from the central Brazilian coast [PDF]

, 2004
Parameters of the length-weight relationship are presented for 85 fish species from the marine and estuarine regions of the central Brazilian coast (latitude 13° to 23° S). Three different methods were used. A non-linear iterative process using the quasi-
