Transduction of molecular signaling is a fundamental mechanism that allows a living cell to communicate internally with other cells and its environment through chemical or physical signals, thereby maintaining its structural integrity and triggering...
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease with an unknown etiology. The purpose of this research was to assess miR-223, miR-146a, and miR-193a in acute and chronic phases of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) mice to consid...
ER-phagy is a specialized form of autophagy, defined by the lysosomal degradation of ER subdomains. ER-phagy has been implicated in relieving the ER from misfolded proteins during ER stress upon activation of the unfolded protein response (UPR). Here...
Expression of the double homeobox 4 (DUX4) transcription factor is highly regulated in early embryogenesis and is subsequently epigenetically silenced. Ectopic expression of DUX4 due to hypomethylation of the D4Z4 repeat array on permissive chromosom...
Many cellular processes are regulated by proteasome-mediated protein degradation, including regulation of signaling pathways and gene expression. Among the pathways regulated by the ubiquitin–proteasome system is the Hedgehog pathway and its do...
Prostate apoptosis response-4 (Par-4, also known as PAWR) is a ubiquitously expressed tumor suppressor protein that induces apoptosis selectively in cancer cells, while leaving normal cells unaffected. Our previous studies indicated that genetic loss...
Background and Aim: Patients with cyanosis secondary to congenital heart disease (CHD) are characterized by erythrocytosis and increased blood viscosity, which contribute to endothelial dysfunction, increased arterial stiffness, and impaired vascular...
TGF-β plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of GO by promoting orbital tissue remodeling and fibrosis. This process involves the stimulation of orbital fibroblasts, leading to myofibroblast differentiation, increased production of inflammator...
Primary central nervous system tumors are the most frequent solid tumors in children, accounting for over 40% of all childhood brain tumor deaths, specifically high-grade gliomas. Compared with pediatric low-grade gliomas (pLGGs), pediatric high-grad...
Zika virus (ZIKV) is an arbovirus with maternal, sexual, and TORCH-related transmission capabilities. After 2015, Brazil had the highest number of ZIVK-infected pregnant women who lost their babies or delivered them with Congenital ZIKV Syndrome (CZS...
