iNOS activation regulates b-catenin association with its partners in endothelial cells
(2012)
Background: Signals that disrupt b-catenin association to cadherins may influence the translocation of b-catenin to the
nucleus to regulate transcription. Post-translational modification of proteins is a signalling event ...
Extracellular matrix glycation and receptor for advanced glycation end-products activation: A missing piece in the puzzle of the association between diabetes and cancer
(2018)
A growing body of epidemiologic evidence suggests that people with diabetes are at a significantly higher risk of many forms of cancer. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying this association are not fully understood. ...
Inhibition of RAGE Axis signaling: A pharmacological challenge
(2019)
The Receptor for Advanced Glycation End Products (RAGE) is an important cell surface receptor, which belongs to the IgG super family and is now considered as a pattern recognition receptor. Because of its relevance in many ...
Helicobacter pylori infection and lung cancer: New insights and future challenges
(2018)
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is the causative agent of chronic gastritis and peptic ulcer diseases and is an important risk factor for the development functional dyspepsia, peptic ulceration, gastric adenocarcinoma and ...
HMGB1 decreases CCR-2 expression and migration of M2 macrophages under hypoxia
(2019)
Objective: The hypoxic milieu at tumor microenvironment is able to drive the behavior of infiltrating tumor cells. Considering that hypoxia-mediated HMGB1 release is known to promote tumor growth, as well to enhance the ...
Pathogenic potential of Helicobacter pylori strains can explain differences in H. pylori associated diseases rates from Chile and Cuba
(2019)
Background: The prevalence of Helicobacter pylori-related diseases varies geographically and it is partially determined by the virulence of the circulating strains. Cuba and Chile exhibit different gastric cancer rates, ...
