(2010)
Objective: To evaluate the spectrum, prevalence, and significance of incidental non-cardiac findings (INCF) in patients referred for a non-invasive coronary angiography using a 128-slice multi-detector CT (MDCT). Materials ...
Quercetin accumulates in nuclear structures and triggers specific gene expression in epithelial cells
(2012)
Quercetin is a flavonol modifying a number of cell processes in different cell lines. Here, we present evidence that nonconjugated quercetin enters cells possibly via organic anion transporter polypeptides and quickly ...
Cold shock Y-box protein-1 proteolysis autoregulates its transcriptional activities
(2013)
Background: The Y-box protein-1 (YB-1) fulfills pleiotropic functions relating to gene transcription, mRNA processing, and translation. It remains elusive how YB-1 shuttling into the nuclear and cytoplasmic compartments ...

Downregulation of serum epidermal growth factor in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Is there a link with mucosal damage?
(2010)
Background: Epidermal growth factor (EGF) is a multipotent peptide which contributes to epithelial development, inhibition of gastric acid secretion, acceleration of wound healing, and promotion of angiogenesis. The aim ...
