A BAFF Receptor His159Tyr Mutation in Sjögren’s Syndrome-Related Lymphoproliferation
(2015)Objective. To study the prevalence, clinical associations, and functional implications of the His159Tyr mutation of the BAFF receptor (BAFF-R) in patients with Sjögren’s syndrome (SS). Methods. The BAFF-R His159Tyr mutation ... -
The Bmi-1/NF-kappa B/VEGF story: another hint for proteasome involvement in glioma angiogenesis?
(2013)Angiogenesis is an essential process for sustaining tumor growth, particularly in cancer cell types with rapid proliferation, including malignant glioma. Bmi-1 is a transcriptional regulator of the polycomb group involved ... -
Gut Barrier Disruption Secondary to Radiofrequency-Assisted Liver Parenchyma Resection in a Porcine Model
(2022)Background: Radiofrequency-assisted liver resection (RF-LR) techniques minimize intraoperative blood loss, while avoiding the Pringle maneuver. Both surgical excision and radiofrequency ablation of liver parenchyma compromise ... -
hTERT regulation by NF-kappa B and c-myc in irradiated HER2-positive breast cancer cells
(2011)Purpose: Telomerase activity (TA), frequently observed in cancer, compensates for telomere shortening thus preventing cell senescence and conferring resistance to therapy. In the present study, we investigated the expression ... -
Impact of Interleukin 10 Deficiency on Intestinal Epithelium Responses to Inflammatory Signals
(2021)Interleukin 10 (IL-10) is a pleiotropic, anti-inflammatory cytokine that has a major protective role in the intestine. Although its production by cells of the innate and adaptive immune system has been extensively studied, ... -
Inflammaging and Skeletal Muscle: Can Protein Intake Make a Difference?
(2016)Inflammaging is the chronic low-grade inflammatory state present in the elderly, characterized by increased systemic concentrations of proinflammatory cytokines. It has been shown that inflammaging increases the risk of ... -
Nfkb2 deficiency and its impact on plasma cells and immunoglobulin expression in murine small intestinal mucosa
(2022)The alternative (noncanonical) nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling pathway predominantly regulates the function of the p52/RelB heterodimer. Germline Nfkb2 deficiency in mice leads to loss of p100/p52 protein and offers ... -
Potential dissociative glucocorticoid receptor activity for protopanaxadiol and protopanaxatriol
(2019)�Glucocorticoids are steroid hormones that regulate inflammation, growth, metabolism, and apoptosis via their cognate receptor, the glucocorticoid receptor (GR). GR, acting mainly as a transcription factor, activates or ... -
Primary High-Grade Non-Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer: High NFκB Expression in Tumor Specimens Distinguishes Patients Who are at Risk for Disease Progression
(2019)To investigate the potential prognostic role of NFκB expression in primary high-grade non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Patients with primary high-grade non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer who received induction and ... -
The triterpene echinocystic acid and its 3-O-glucoside derivative are revealed as potent and selective glucocorticoid receptor agonists
(2016)Glucocorticoids are steroid hormones widely used to control many inflammatory conditions. These effects are primarily attributed to glucocorticoid receptor transrepressional activities but with concomitant receptor ...
