Serum biomarker for diagnostic evaluation of pulmonary arterial hypertension in systemic sclerosis
Background Systemic sclerosis-associated pulmonary arterial hypertension (SSc-PAH) is one of the leading causes of death in SSc. Identification of a serum-based proteomic diagnostic biomarker for SSc-PAH would allow for rapid non-invasive screening and ...

Proteomic signatures of equine dental tooth tissues in ageing and disease
Abstract Background Ageing and dental disease in horses lead to structural and functional deterioration of dental tissues, yet their molecular signatures remain poorly characterised. Understanding how these processes alter the protein composition of enamel, dentin, cementum and pulp is essential for improving equine oral health and identifying ...

Midkine secretion protects Hep3B cells from cadmium induced cellular damage
Aim: To evaluate role of midkine secretion during Cadmium (Cd) exposure in the human hepatocyte cell line Hep3B cells. Methods: Different dosages of Cd (0.5-1-5-10 μg/mL) were applied to Hep3B cells and their effects to apoptosis, lactate dehydrogenase ...

Serum Midkine as a Biomarker for Hepatocellular Carcinoma Treatment Response and Prognostication
Up‐to‐date, tumor markers are considered more helpful in the evaluation of treatment response and prognostication rather than diagnosis. Identifying a valid biomarker to help clinical management of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is still a challenge, especially the alpha‐fetoprotein (AFP) negative HCC. This study evaluated the efficacy of serum Midkine

ALK activation, ligands and therapeutic targets in glioblastoma and other cancers
The intracellular anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) fragment shows striking homology with members of the insulin receptor family and was initially identified as an oncogenic fusion protein resulting from a translocation in lymphoma and more recently in a ...

Spatial transcriptomics and bulk RNA‐seq data analysis revealed the molecular characteristics of invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC). ILC was classified into three clusters: proliferative, immunoreactive, and stromal‐rich, with different prognoses. ABSTRACT Invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) is a special type of breast cancer.

Cellular expression of midkine-a and midkine-b during retinal development and photoreceptor regeneration in zebrafish [PDF]
In the retina of adult teleosts, stem cells are sustained in two specialized niches: the ciliary marginal zone (CMZ) and the microenvironment surrounding adult MÜller glia.
