[ 1 ] - Assessment of Correlation Between miR-210 Expression and Pre-Eclampsia Risk: A Meta-Analysis

Background: Pre-eclampsia (PE) is a pregnancy disorder characterized by hypertension and proteinuria. The evidence has suggested that microRNAs (miRs) are associated with pre-eclampsia pathogenesis; however, these results are inconsistent. The aim of this study was to assess the association between miR-210 expression and PE risk. Methods: Previous studies were selected using PubMed, Scopus, ...

[ 2 ] - Study of PKA binding sites in cAMP-signaling pathway using structural protein-protein interaction networks

Backgroud: Protein-protein interaction, plays a key role in signal transduction in signaling pathways. Different approaches are used for prediction of these interactions including experimental and computational approaches. In conventional node-edge protein-protein interaction networks, we can only see which proteins interact but ‘structural networks’ show us how these proteins inter...

[ 3 ] - Proteomics Applications in Health: Biomarker and Drug Discovery and Food Industry

Advancing in genome sequencing has greatly propelled the understanding of the living world, however, it is insufficient for full description of a biological system. Focusing on, proteomics has emerged as another large-scale platform for improving the understanding of biology. Proteomic experiments can be used for different aspects of clinical and health sciences such as food technology, biomark...

[ 5 ] - Resveratrol reduces lipid accumulation through upregulating the expression of microRNAs regulating fatty acid bet oxidation in liver cells: Evidence from in vivo and in vitro studies

MicroRNAs has been shown to regulate lipogenesis in liver. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether the effects of resveratrol (RSV) on lipogenesis is associated with the changes in the expression of two miRNAs (miR-107 and miR-10b) that regulate lipogenic pathways. 30 wild type C57BL/6j male mice were randomly fed three diets: a standard chow diet (ND), a high fat diet (HFD, 60%...

[ 7 ] - Identification of Agents with Potential Leishmania Malate Dehydrogenase Inhibitor Activity: A Proteomic and Molecular Docking Approach

Background and purpose: Leishmaniasis is one of the most important infectious diseases caused by different species of the Leishmania, which is a public health problem worldwide. So far, no effective vaccine is introduced for this disease and drug therapy is associated with many side effects. Therefore, this study was designed to identify novel FDA-approved compounds with anti-leishmanial activ...
