Peritoneal colonization of ovarian cancer
The primary cause of mortality associated with cancer is metastasis, i.e., the spread of transformed cells from the site of oncogenesis to secondary loci within the body. Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is a debilitating ...
Molecular Actions Of Arecoline, An Alkaloid Implicated In The Manifestation Of Oral Submucous Fibrosis (OSMF)
(2010-07-21)
The pathogenesis of oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF) is due to a complex interplay between the production and degradation of extracellular matrix (ECM) protein components. In tissue fibrosis, there is a net accumulation of ...
Role of 3D-organization of the X-inactivation centre in imprinted X-chromosome inactivation
The connection between 3D-genome organization and genome regulation is one of the fundamental questions in modern biology. In a nucleus, the genome is organized through different layers of 3D-organization such as ...

(2015-08-19)
Oral Submucous Fibrosis (OSF) is a chronic inflammatory disease resulting in progressive fibrosis of the oral tissues that can cause difficulty in chewing, swallowing, speaking, and mouth opening. Epidemiological studies ...
Role of PdtaS-PdtaR two component signalling system in metabolic adaptation in Mycobacterium spp.
The ability to perceive and adapt to environmental fluctuations, both internal and external, is a fundamental characteristic of life across diverse organisms. Within the context of pathogenic bacteria such as Mycobacterium ...
Structural insight into unique features of the Translational apparatus in Plants
Plants are constantly challenged with a variety of biotic and abiotic stress conditions. Being sessile, plants cannot evade these conditions. Most of these sudden changes in environmental conditions require a quick change ...
