Despite the observed declines in lung cancer incidence rates among men, such favorable results probably do not reflect the recently-implemented tobacco control policies, given the relatively short ATPγS tetralithium salt between adoption and implementation of these measures, and the time lag assess

2019-07-30
Liver disease is the third most common cause of premature death in the UK [26]. Due to the increased incidence of obesity, NAFLD is now more prevalent than alcohol-induced liver disease [2] with 67% of overweight and 94% of obese individuals presenting this condition [27]. The HF/HFr regime was sele

2019-07-24
The B class scavenger receptor CD36 acts as a fibrillar Aβ receptor [40]. In our studies, acute OAB-14 treatment caused a remarkable increase in CD36 expression on the surface of microglia, which might be the main reason why microglia remove fibrillar Aβ. CD36-positive microglia are M2 microglia [41

The present findings also show that paternal hyperglycemia induced hypermethylation of specific CpG dinucleotides in the Ppara promoter region of the offspring liver, rather than altering the methylation of all CpGs in the Ppara promoter, and the magnitude of variation in CpG methylation was suffici

In addition to the liver, muscle is a key target organ of insulin action as it stimulates the uptake and disposal of glucose to maintain blood glucose levels within the normal (physiological) range. Relative gene expression of glucose transporter type 4 (Glut4; −29%; p increases Liproxstatin-1 expen

A second model recently developed using CRISPR/Cas9 is the CF rabbit, both CFTR null or carrying the ΔF508 mutation [50]. This model was also generated because of the need of an easy animal model that reproduces the lung phenotype. The CF rabbit is still at the initial characterization stage, but pr

2019-07-08
Adipose tissue is a major site for cholesterol storage. Over half of total body cholesterol resides within the adipose tissues in obesity [[36], [37], [38]]. In EAT and SAT from high cholesterol diet (Western or HFD + Cho)-fed mice, we detected about 300–400 mg of cholesterol per gram of tissue, whe

2019-07-08
Since: (i) melatonin inhibits biliary damage and liver fibrosis by downregulation of miR-200b; and (ii) downregulation of miR-200b (by Vivo Morpholino) in Mdr2−/− mice decreases the Pifithrin-α (PFTα) of selected clock genes, we propose that the modulation of the melatonin/MT1/miR-200b/circadian rh

Throughout all studies, it was of interest that despite marked alterations in the top and middle bands by either proteasomal or lysosomal inhibitors, the effect on the bottom band was not significant nor consistent. Considering this, it could be suggested that the bottom band may not be result of su
