When Is a “Pathway” Not a Pathway?

چکیده
Physician and alchemist Philippus Aureolus Theophrastus Bombastus von Hohenheim was born in Switzerland one year after Columbus set out for, and discovered, the New World. The son of a physician, he adopted the nom de plume Paracelsus on completion of his own medical doctorate to imply that he was at least the equal of past great physicians, such as Galen and Celsus, and is credited as the founder of the field of toxicology. Paracelsus rejected Galen’s theory of the four humours and advocated for the application of the scientific method to medicine, as well as the importance of the sciences in medical education.

متن کاملThe Role of Wnt/β-catenin Signaling Pathway in Rat Primordial Germ Cells Reprogramming and Induction into Pluripotent State
Primordial Germ Cells (PGCs) are unipotent precursors of the gametes. PGCs can give rise to a type of pluripotent stem cells in vitro that are called embryonic germ (EG) cells. PGCs can also acquire such pluripotency in vivo and generate teratomas. Under specific culture conditions, PGCs can be reprogrammed to embryonic germ cells which are capable of expression of key pluripotency marker...

Background: The developmental competency of embryos is affected by several factors, including the developmental pathways and their elements. In mammalian species including goat, fertilized oocyte undergoes several divisions to form a structure called blastocyst. These events depend on the successful control of temporal and spatial expression of genes involved in genome activation. One of the cr...
متن کاملInvestigating the mRNA expression levels of Hippo pathway in adenoma polyps
Background Neoplastic adenomatous polyps generating from the epithelial cells are considered benign tumors. Adenomatous polyps are common in western countries and it can take seven to 10 or more years for an adenoma to evolve into cancer. The Hippo signaling pathway, also known as the Salvador-Warts-Hippo (SWH) pathway, is a signaling pathway that controls organ size in animals through the r...

Background and purpose: Âpoptosis or programmed cell death is a process of cell suicide. Ïonizing radiation is one of the stimuli for apoptosis, acting through DNÂ damage. Ïn the present study, effects of x-rays induced apoptosis in HL60 cells, as well as the protective effects of SÇF( Stem Çell Factor) in inhibiting x-ray induced apoptosis have been evaluated. Materials and methods : Ëxpo...
متن کاملRole of slow pathway after nodal fast pathway ablation on the basic and rate- dependent properties of the isolated rabbit atrioventricularNode
Introduction : The aim of this study is to obtain new insight into possible relation between functional properties of slow concealed pathway and rate-dependent properties of AV-node. Methods : Rate-dependent nodal properties of recovery, facilitation, and fatigue were characterized by stimulation protocols in one groups of (N=7) isolated superfused AV-Nodal rabbits. Small miniature lesions ...
