The neuronal membrane as a key factor in neurodegeneration
The neuronal membrane is the site where most processes involved in neuronal preservation and functioning are triggered. These actions require the participation of membrane-related molecular agents, which associate in protein/lipid clusters to initiate molecular processing and signal transduction. Furthermore, numerous neuropathological phenomena have their origin in this structure and/or are a ...
متن کاملInflammation, a Key Factor in Cancer Ambush
Inflammatory condition is the consequence of defensive mechanism of immune system against viral and bacterial infection, tissue injury, UV radiation, stress and etc. Persistently acute inflammation leads to chronic phase which is characterized by production of pro-inflammatory mediators from T cells. These molecules (e.g. IL-6, TNF-&alpha, IL-1&beta and IL-17) are mostly pleiotropic cytokines i...

the research questions were as follows: 1. is there any relationship between the students concious awareness of the form and implications of the conjuncations and their improvement in using appropriate conjunctions? 2. does students knowledge of the from and the implications of the conjunctions help them to produce more coherent writings. 3. does a comparison between english conjunctions and th...
15 صفحه اولSTAT3 as a Key Factor in Tumor Microenvironment and Cancer Stem Cell
Background Recent studies revealed that tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) play a decisive role in the regulation of tumor progression by manipulating tumor oncogenesis, angiogenesis and immune functions within tumor microenvironments. Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), which is a point of convergence for numerous oncogenic signalling pathways, is constitutively activ...
متن کاملRho family GTPases: key players in neuronal development, neuronal survival, and neurodegeneration
The Rho family of GTPases belongs to the Ras superfamily of low molecular weight (∼21 kDa) guanine nucleotide binding proteins. The most extensively studied members are RhoA, Rac1, and Cdc42. In the last few decades, studies have demonstrated that Rho family GTPases are important regulatory molecules that link surface receptors to the organization of the actin and microtubule cytoskeletons. Ind...
