Molecular Mechanisms in Melanoma [PDF]
The review of melanoma by Mil- ler and Mihm (July 6 issue)1 clearly characterizes the linear progression of melanocytic lesions, from the morphologic perspective to the molecular per- spective.2,3 However, the genetic alterations would have more relevance if they result in kinetic ad- vantage and progression.

Transcriptomic landscape of TIMP3 oncosuppressor activity in thyroid carcinoma
Background Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is the most frequent thyroid tumor. The tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-3 (TIMP3) gene encodes a matrix metalloproteinases inhibitor that exerts a tumor suppressor role in several tumor types.

Molecular mechanisms of luteinization [PDF]
Dynamic changes in steroidogenesis occur in ovarian granulosa cells during ovulation after the LH surge. The ovulatory LH surge induces rapid up-regulation of steroidogenic acute regulatory (StAR) protein and rapid down-regulation of aromatase (Cyp19a1) in granulosa cells undergoing luteinization during ovulation.

Molecular Mechanisms Used by Salmonella to Evade the Immune System [PDF]
Human and animal pathogens are able to circumvent, at least temporarily, the sophisticated immune defenses of their hosts. Several serovars of the Gram-negative bacterium Salmonella enterica have been used as models for the study of pathogen-host ...

Molecular Mechanisms of Glucocorticoid-Induced Insulin Resistance
Glucocorticoids (GCs) are steroids secreted by the adrenal cortex under the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis control, one of the major neuro-endocrine systems of the organism.

Plant responses to photoperiod [PDF]
Photoperiod controls many developmental responses in animals, plants and even fungi. The response to photoperiod has evolved because daylength is a reliable indicator of the time of year, enabling developmental events to be scheduled to coincide with ...

Hypoxia- and MicroRNA-Induced Metabolic Reprogramming of Tumor-Initiating Cells
Colorectal cancer (CRC), the second most common cause of cancer mortality in the Western world, is a highly heterogeneous disease that is driven by a rare subpopulation of tumorigenic cells, known as cancer stem cells (CSCs) or tumor-initiating cells ...

Abstract P-5: Modern Membrane Mimetic Systems for Cryo-EM Based Structural Analysis [PDF]
Background: Single particle approach that is used to image the sample by an electron beam requires receptors to be extracted from the cell membrane and placed into the sample grid in the solubilized form.
