Metformin hydrochloride laden nanostructured lipid carriers: A promising strategy for skin diseases [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences
Metformin hydrochloride (MTF) has pharmacological properties for managing inflammatory skin conditions. MTF is a hydrophilic medication. Accordingly, embedding MTF into lipid carriers for enhancing skin penetration presents a challenge. The study aims to

Single nucleotide in the MTF-1 binding site can determine metal-specific transcription activation [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2012
Cells respond to changes in environment by shifting their gene expression profile to deal with the new conditions. The cellular response to changes in metal homeostasis is an important example of this. Transition metals such as iron, zinc, and copper are essential micronutrients but other metals such as cadmium are simply toxic.

Metformin Protects From Rotenone–Induced Nigrostriatal Neuronal Death in Adult Mice by Activating AMPK-FOXO3 Signaling and Mitigation of Angiogenesis

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2020
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease that affects substantia nigra dopamine neurons. Many studies have documented the role of oxidative stress and angiogenesis in the pathogenesis of PD.

On-Orbit Modulation Transfer Function Estimation Based on the Refined Image Kernel

Sensors, 2023
To overcome the limitations of traditional on-orbit modulation function transfer (MTF) measurement methods that are heavily dependent on natural features, scenery, artificial edges, and point source targets, this paper presents an on-orbit MTF ...

Divalent Metal‐Dependent Regulation of Hepcidin Expression by MTF‐1

The FASEB Journal, 2010
There appears to be cross‐talk between metal ions and their acquisition pathways. In particular, zinc and iron reciprocally inhibit each other's uptake. Hepcidin, a small acute phase and antimicrobial peptide, is the principle regulator of iron absorption.
