protein expression

[Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine] Scientists focused on the effects and mechanisms of the Astragali Radix and Coptis Rhizoma herb pair attenuation of atherosclerosis in apolipoprotein E knockout (ApoE-/-) mice.

[Endocrine Journal] Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells treatment significantly alleviated inflammation, reduced serum thyroid antibody levels, and decreased the ratios of IL-17α+/CD25+FOXP3+ cells and serum IFN-γ/IL-4 in experimental autoimmune thyroiditis rats.

[Cancer Letters] Scientists reported that tumor suppressor candidate 2 (TUSC2) protein expression is reduced/lost in glioblastoma compared to normal brain due to protein destabilization.

[Journal of Tissue Engineering] The authors developed four different 2D cell-based decellularized matrices and a 3D decellularized human trabecular-bone scaffold to evaluate bone marrow-MSC behavior.

[Endocrine Journal] Researchers investigated the therapeutic effect of human umbilical cord MSCs on experimental autoimmune thyroiditis (EAT) and the underlying mechanisms by utilizing a porcine thyroglobulin-induced EAT rat model.

[Scientific Reports] The authors reported that the deletion of dystroglycan (DG) in rat hippocampal cell cultures caused pronounced changes in the density and morphology of dendritic spines. They also noted a decrease in laminin, one of the major extracellular partners of DG.
