Background: Amyloidogenic proteins, a heterogenous group of proteins characterized by their ability to form amyloid fibrils, lead to pathological conditions when they undergo abnormal folding and self-assembly. Missense single-nucleotide polymorphism...
Background: Multiple myeloma (MM) is essentially an incurable cancer, but treatments with proteasome inhibitors are widely used clinically to extend patient survival. While the mechanisms of proteasome inhibition by Bortezomib are well known, the cel...
Background: The aim of this study is to investigate the pathophysiology of cataract by analyzing signaling pathways in three sample types obtained from four different lens groups: age-related (ARC), diabetic (DC), post-vitrectomy cataract (PVC) and c...
Background: Mitoxantrone (MX) is regularly used to treat several cancers. Despite its long history in the clinic, recent studies continue to unveil novel protein targets. These targets may contribute to the cytotoxic effects of the drug, as well as p...
Polyploid crops such as wheat, Brassica, and cotton are critical in the global agricultural and economic system. However, their productivity is threatened increasingly by biotic stresses such as disease, and abiotic stresses such as heat, both exacer...
Background: Human insulin-like growth factor 1 (hIGF-1) plays a key role in cell proliferation and tissue repair. While plant expression systems offer a cost-effective and scalable alternative for recombinant protein production, the molecular effects...
Background: Poxviruses constitute a family of large dsDNA viruses that can infect a plethora of species including humans. Historically, poxviruses have caused a health burden in multiple outbreaks. The large genome of poxviruses favors reverse vaccin...
Background: The search for reliable aging biomarkers using proteomic databases and large-scale proteomic studies presents a significant challenge in biogerontology. Existing proteomic databases and studies contain valuable information; however, there...
Background: Molecular mimicry contributes to the development of unwanted responses to self-antigens. Autoimmune phenomena have been observed in diseases caused by Aedes aegypti-transmitted arboviruses, but the occurrence of mimicry between salivary a...
Background: Chronic ischemic heart disease (CIHD) is characterized by persistent myocardial ischemic due to long-term reduced coronary blood flow. In the past, we mainly relied on surgical intervention or drug therapy to alleviate symptoms, but effec...
