A maladaptive ER stress response triggers dysfunction in highly active muscles of mice with SELENON loss

Selenoprotein N (SELENON) is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) protein whose loss of function leads to human SELENON-related myopathies. SelenoN knockout (KO) mouse limb muscles, however, are protected from the disease, and display no major alt...

Challenges in community-based recruitment of Alzheimer's disease cases: Experience of the monitoring drug efficacy through multi-omics research initiative in Alzheimer's disease (MEMORI-AD) study

Background The Monitoring drug Efficacy through Multi-Omics Research Initiative in Alzheimer's Disease (MEMORI-AD) study aims to characterize drug response to donepezil and memantine in a Filipino cohort with late-onset Alzheimer's disease ...

High helminthic co-infection in tuberculosis patients with undernutritional status in northeastern Ethiopia

Abstract Background Tuberculosis and parasitosis are the widely distributed diseases in Ethiopia with the leading cause of mortality and morbidity, respectively. There has been no information on the status of co-infections of tuberculosis a...

Real time, in vivo measurement of neuronal and peripheral clocks in Drosophila melanogaster

Circadian clocks are highly conserved transcriptional regulators that control ~24 hr oscillations in gene expression, physiological function, and behavior. Circadian clocks exist in almost every tissue and are thought to control tissue-spec...

MOLECULAR BIOLOGY OF MYCOPLASMAS

Although mycoplasmas lack cell walls, they are in many respects similar to the gram-positive bacteria with which they share a common ancestor. The molecular biology of mycoplasmas is intriguing because the chromosome is uniquely small (< 60...

Toll-like receptor 2 coordinates induction of IL-22 in lung macrophages following organic dust-induced inflammation

IntroductionOrganic dust exposures, particularly in occupational settings, induce airway inflammation and contribute to the development and progression of chronic lung disease and impaired tissue regeneration. Interleukin-22 (IL-22) is a pl...

Corrigendum to “Enhanced LRP8 expression induced by Helicobacter pylori drives gastric cancer progression by facilitating β-Catenin nuclear translocation”. [J. Adv. Res. 69 (2025) 299–312]

S1 Subunit of Spike Protein from a Current Highly Virulent Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea Virus Is an Important Determinant of Virulence in Piglets

Base on the sequence of S genes, which encode spike proteins, we previously identified three different types (North American, S INDEL, and S large-DEL types) of porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) that have re-emerged in Japan since 2013...

Epigenetic deregulation of lamina-associated domains in Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome

Abstract Background Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a progeroid disease characterized by the early onset of age-related phenotypes including arthritis, loss of body fat and hair, and atherosclerosis. Cells from affected indiv...

Beginning at the ends: telomeres and human disease [version 1; referees: 4 approved]

Studies of rare and common illnesses have led to remarkable progress in the understanding of the role of telomeres (nucleoprotein complexes at chromosome ends essential for chromosomal integrity) in human disease. Telomere biology disorders...

Encyclopedia of Molecular Biology

The field of molecular biology has revolutionized the study of biology. The applications to medicine are enormous, ranging from diagnostic techniques for disease and genetic disorders, to drugs, to gene therapy. Focusing on the fundamentals...

Innovative green niosomal piperlongumine as a novel topical treatment for dermatophytosis in guinea pigs model

Abstract Dermatophytosis is a common superficial fungal infection that affects many people worldwide. Although various species of dermatophytes respond to common antifungal drugs, the recently identified Trichophyton indotineae isolates hav...

Targeting Inflammation With Nanosized Drug Delivery Platforms in Cardiovascular Diseases: Immune Cell Modulation in Atherosclerosis

Atherosclerosis (AS) is a disorder of large and medium-sized arteries; it consists in the formation of lipid-rich plaques in the intima and inner media, whose pathophysiology is mostly driven by inflammation. Currently available interventio...

The miRNA neuroinflammatory biomarkers in COVID-19 patients with different severity of illness

Introduction: The expression of specific miRNAs and their mRNA targets are changed in infectious disease. The aim of this study was to analyze the expression of pro-neuroinflammatory miRNAs, anti-neuroinflammatory miRNAs, and their mRNA tar...

Externally triggered drug delivery systems

Externally triggered drug delivery systems empower patients or healthcare providers to utilize external stimuli to initiate drug release from implanted systems. This approach holds significant potential for clinical disease management, offe...

Nanotechnology for the biologist

Nanotechnology refers to research and technology development at the atomic, molecular, and macromolecular scale, leading to the controlled manipulation and study of structures and devices with length scales in the 1- to 100-nanometers range...

Plasmodium vivax Transmission in Africa.

Malaria in sub-Saharan Africa has historically been almost exclusively attributed to Plasmodium falciparum (Pf). Current diagnostic and surveillance systems in much of sub-Saharan Africa are not designed to identify or report non-Pf human m...
