Regulation of cardiac myocyte cell death.
, 2003 Cardiac myocyte death, whether through necrotic or apoptotic mechanisms, is a contributing factor to many cardiac pathologies. Although necrosis and apoptosis are the widely accepted forms of cell death, they may utilize the same cell death machinery ...

Uterine Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress and Its Unfolded Protein Response May Regulate Caspase 3 Activation in the Pregnant Mouse Uterus [PDF]
, 2013 We have previously proposed that uterine caspase-3 may modulate uterine contractility in a gestationally regulated fashion. The objective of this study was to determine the mechanism by which uterine caspase-3 is activated and consequently controlled in ...

MicroRNAs in Sarcopenia: A Systematic Review
Frontiers in Medicine, 2020 Sarcopenia, which is characterized by the loss of skeletal muscle, has been reported to contribute to development of physical disabilities, various illnesses, and increasing mortality. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that inhibit translation

The Efficacy of Flavonoid Antioxidant from Chocolate Bean Extract: Prevention of Myocyte Damage Caused by Reperfusion Injury in Predominantly Anaerobic Sports [PDF]
, 2012 BACKGROUND: Use of predominantly anaerobic energy systems such as that seen in 800-meter athlete runners disrupts mitochondrial function as an energy source. Furthermore, it produces free radical substances and causes myocyte damage. Malondialdehyde (MDA)

Active Movement of the Tunic in Halocynthia roretzi
Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2010 Halocynthia roretzi, a solitary ascidian, can swell and deflate its solid, leather-like tunic largely, but it is not clear whether the tunic deforms actively.
