Dietary nitrate and nitrite protect against doxorubicin‐induced cardiac fibrosis and oxidative protein damage in tumor‐bearing mice

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Chemotherapies such as doxorubicin can have toxic effects on healthy cardiovascular/heart tissue. Following up on a doxorubicin toxicity study in mice without tumors where nitrate water was cardioprotective (lessened toxicity), this study with tumor‐bearing mice undergoing doxorubicin treatment showed no negative effect of nitrate and nitrite on drug ...

Diabetes‐induced vascular calcification is associated with low pyrophosphate and its oral supplementation prevents calcification in diabetic mice

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Induction of diabetes in three different mouse strains uniformly resulted in an increase in TNAP activity and a reduction in pyrophosphate (PPi) in the circulation. Inhibition of TNAP restored plasma PPi. Diabetes‐induced calcification in the media layer of the aorta was detected only in the Abcc6−/− strain, which is predisposed to ectopic ...

Impact of a senior research thesis on students' perceptions of scientific inquiry in distinct student populations

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This study addressed how a senior research thesis is perceived by undergraduate students. It assessed students' perception of research skills, epistemological beliefs, and career goals in Biochemistry (science) and BDC (science‐business) students. Completing a thesis improved confidence in research skills, resilience, scientific identity, closed gender‐

Naked cuticle is essential for Drosophila wing development beyond Wingless signaling

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Naked cuticle (Nkd), a Wnt signaling inhibitor, assumes extensive roles in Drosophila wing development. Overexpressing Nkd causes smaller, crumpled wings, while also perturbing multiple signaling pathways and developmental genes. A specific region (R1S) is critical for Nkd's function as a signaling integrator, offering new insights for studying its ...

Epidermal growth factor receptors

Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry, 1981
EGF-Rs are cell membrane glycoproteins of wide distribution. They have not yet been fully characterized or purified but are probably molecules of 170-190,000 mol. wt. in most cells. The growth factor EGF binds and will saturate cell surface receptors with a KA of about 5 X 10(9) M-1 although a receptor class with an affinity in excess of 10(10) M-1 has

Keratinocyte Growth Factor Receptors

Dermatologic Clinics, 2007
Modulation of the number of functional growth factor receptors on the epithelial cell surface that is exposed to the action of cognate ligands represents a key strategy in cellular physiology to regulate the proliferation rate and the differentiation process. The keratinocyte growth factor receptor (KGFR) and the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR),

Hematopoietic growth factor receptors

The International Journal of Cell Cloning, 1991
The molecular cloning for most of the hematopoietic growth factor receptors has been achieved over the past few years and revealed that they can by assigned to two discrete receptor families, namely the hematopoietic growth factor superfamily (HRS) and the receptor tyrosine kinase family (RTK).

Hematopoietic growth factor receptors

Cytotechnology, 1989
The formation of the cellular constituents of the blood is regulated by a series of endogenous polypeptides with largely paracrine function. A number of these hematopoietic growth factors (HGF's), which include colony stimulating factors, interleukins, and erythropoietin, have been purified to homogeneity and cloned, which in turn has led to extensive ...
