A Glance at Biogenesis and Functionality of MicroRNAs and Their Role in the Neuropathogenesis of Parkinson’s Disease

open access: yesOxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short, noncoding RNA transcripts. Mammalian miRNA coding sequences are located in introns and exons of genes encoding various proteins. As the central nervous system is the largest source of miRNA transcripts in living organisms, miRNA molecules are an integral part of the regulation of epigenetic activity in physiological and ...

Protein Phosphatase PP2C Identification in Entamoeba spp

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
Entamoeba histolytica is the causative agent of amoebiasis, and Entamoeba dispar is its noninvasive morphological twin. Entamoeba invadens is a reptilian parasite. In the present study, Western blot, phosphatase activity, immunofluorescence, and bioinformatic analyses were used to identify PP2C phosphatases of E. histolytica, E. dispar, and E. invadens.

Serum concentrations of IL‐31 in dogs with nonpruritic mast cell tumours or lymphoma

open access: yesVeterinary Dermatology, Volume 31, Issue 6, Page 466-e124, December 2020., 2020
Background The aim of this study was to compare serum interleukin (IL)‐31 concentrations in dogs with lymphoma and mast cell tumours (MCT) without pruritus to those of healthy dogs. Hypothesis/Objectives To determine if IL‐31 plays a role in tumour pathogenesis and if IL‐31 could be a biological marker for disease progression.

Serum canine thymus and activation‐regulated chemokine (TARC/CCL17) concentrations correlate with disease severity and therapeutic responses in dogs with atopic dermatitis

open access: yesVeterinary Dermatology, Volume 31, Issue 6, Page 446-455, December 2020., 2020
Background – Thymus and activation‐regulated chemokine (TARC/CCL17) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of canine atopic dermatitis (cAD). Serum TARC concentrations are a reliable biomarker for human atopic dermatitis; however, their potential as a biomarker for cAD has not been investigated.
