From the beginning, humankind has been wondering why we aged and if there was any way to avoid it. Several animal models have been studied and several theories have been postulated about the process of aging. The main goal of these... more
Study Guide and Exercises for Human Microbiome and Dysbiosis in Clinical Disease: Textbook and Presentation Slides -- Full-Color Version: https://www.createspace.com/5518130 with Discount Code: Q4QKVJBX -- Retail:... more
Major depression and chronic pain are significant health problems that seriously impact the quality of life of affected individuals. These diseases that individually are difficult to treat often co-exist, thereby compounding the... more
Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a PI3K (phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase)-related kinase, via two distinct forms – mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) and mTORC2 coordinates various extracellular and intracellular signals like growth factors,... more
Cell death is a crucial process during development, homeostasis and immune regulation of multicellular organisms, and its dysregulation is associated with numerous pathologies. Cell death is often induced upon pathogen infection as part... more
The Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK and PI3K/PTEN/Akt/mTOR cascades are often activated by genetic alterations in upstream signaling molecules such as receptor tyrosine kinases (RTK). Certain components of these pathways, RAS, NF1, BRAF, MEK1, DUSP5,... more
C. Peter Verrijzer, Jan A. van der Knaap et al., from Department of Biochemistry and Center for Biomedical Genetics at Erasmus University Medical Center, in collaboration with other institutes, have shown the importance of the formation... more
A novel hybrid class of telmisartan–rosiglitazone molecules was synthesized in an attempt to discover a dual peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) agonist/angiotensin II antagonist for treatment for metabolic syndrome.... more
Abstract: The levels of protein tyrosine phosphorylation within a cell is regulated by protein tyrosine kinases and protein tyrosine phosphatases. These protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTP) can act both as positive and negative regulators... more
The Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK and PI3K/PTEN/Akt/mTOR cascades are often activated by genetic alterations in upstream signaling molecules such as receptor tyrosine kinases (RTK). Targeting these pathways is often complex and can result in pathway... more
