Cutaneous melanoma (CM) remains one of the leading causes of tumor mortality due to its high metastatic spread. CM growth is influenced by inflammation regulated by prostaglandins (PGs) whose synthesis is catalyzed by cyclooxygenases (COXs). COX inhi...

In animal models, melanocyte-stimulating hormones (MSHs) protect the liver from various injuries. Erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP), a metabolic disorder, leads to the accumulation of protoporphyrin (PPIX). In addition to the most prominent symptom...

We evaluated 13 patients affected by myasthenia gravis (MG) who had coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) before vaccination and 14 myasthenic patients who contracted severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection after vaccinat...

Advanced heart failure is a growing problem for which the best treatment is cardiac transplantation. However, the shortage of donors’ hearts made left ventricular assist devices as destination therapy (DT-LVAD) a highly recommended alternative:...

The interactions between cell and cellular matrix confers plasticity to each body tissue, influencing the cellular migratory capacity. Macrophages rely on motility to promote their physiological function. These phagocytes are determinant for the cont...

The evolution of ageusia research literature has yet to be investigated. This bibliometric study analyzed the entire ageusia research literature indexed in Web of Science, to reveal its growth and the most productive entities in terms of authors, ins...

Introduction: Proteinuria is a major risk factor for the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) demonstrated a nephroprotective and antiproteinuric effect in people with type 2 diabetes (T2DM)...

Maspin is an important biomarker which was proven to be correlated to many pathological features that can help the oncologists, the surgeons and also the pathologists for choosing the personalized treatment of the patients. Maspin expression correlat...

To date, little is known about the effects of motor rehabilitation in peripheral neuropathy (PN) patients with a history of recurrent falls (RFH). This study aimed to assess balance and the activities of daily living (ADLs) in elderly lower limb PN p...

The ancient guanine nucleotide-binding (G) proteins are a group of critical regulatory and signal transduction proteins, widely involved in diverse cellular processes of all kingdoms of life. YchF is a kind of universally conserved novel unconvention...
