Mechanistic insights into the inhibition of NTCP by myrcludex B [PDF]
Background & aims: The sodium taurocholate co-transporting polypeptide (NTCP) is the entry receptor for the hepatitis B and delta virus (HBV/HDV) and the main hepatic uptake transporter of conjugated bile acids. Myrcludex B, a synthetic peptide mimicking

ZO-2 determines cell membrane localization of receptor NTCP and supports hepatitis B virus infection [PDF]
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infects hepatocytes by using sodium taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide (NTCP) as a receptor. NTCP can render non-permissive hepatocyte cell lines such as HepG2 permissive to HBV infection.

Effect of mTOR inhibitors on sodium taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide (NTCP) function in vitro
The sodium taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide (NTCP; gene name SLC10A1) is the primary hepatic basolateral uptake transporter for conjugated bile acids and the entry receptor for the hepatitis B and D virus (HBV/HDV).

Modeling Normal Tissue Complication Probability of Radiation-Induced Alopecia Following Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy in Glioblastoma Patients [PDF]
Background: Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is an aggressive primary brain tumor requiring radiotherapy (RT), which often leads to radiation-induced alopecia (RIA), a distressing toxicity impacting quality of life.
