Elucidation of 17β-Estradiol (E2) Role in the Regulation of Corpus Luteum Function in Mammals : Analysis of IGFBP5 Expression during Ea-mediated Actions
(2017-12-12)
Corpus luteum is a transient endocrine structure formed from the ruptured ovarian follicle. Its main function is to secrete P4, a pro-gestational hormone, essential for establishment and maintenance of pregnancy in mammals. ...
Insights Into The Mechanism Of Actions Of Luteinizing Hormone And Prostaglandin F2α In The Regulation Of Corpus Luteum Function Of Monoovulatory Species
(2016-11-11)
Corpus luteum (CL), a transient endocrine structure formed from the ruptured ovarian follicle after ovulation, secretes progesterone (P4) that is essential for establishment and maintenance of pregnancy in mammals. The ...
Deciphering the Mechanisms of AMPK Activation upon Anchorage- Deprivation
(2018-01-07)
AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a key regulator of energy homeostasis in cells. It has been implicated as a therapeutic target for various metabolic diseases like type II diabetes and obesity. However, its role in ...
Role of Chemokine Receptor, CXCR4 Mediated Signaling in Cellular Senescence
(2017-10-05)
Cellular senescence has been proposed to be equivalent to organismal aging and is one of the outcomes of the cell fate decision process in response to DNA damage that occurs in cells. When a cell encounters DNA damage, the ...
Role of Activin A Signaling in Breast Cancer
(2017-11-22)
Activin-A is a member of transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily of cytokines which includes TGF-βs, Activins, Nodal, bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), growth and differentiation factors (GDFs) and anti-Mullerian ...
Role of CG9650 in Neuronal Development And Function of Drosophila Melanogaster
(2017-10-05)
The nervous system is the most complex system in an organism. Functioning of the nervous system requires proper formation of neural cells, as well as accurate connectivity and signaling among them. While the major events ...
Exploring the Evolution of Cellobiose Utilization in Shigella Sonnei And the Conservation of ChbG Orthologs in Eukaryotes
(2017-10-11)
The chb operon constitutes the genes essential for utilization of chitooligosaccharides in Escherichia coli and related species. The six genes of the operon code for a transcriptional regulator (ChbR) of the operon, a ...
Studies on the Evolution of Aromatic Beta-Glucoside Catabolic Systems under Different Stress Conditions in Escherichia coli
(2017-11-22)
The genetic systems involved in the utilisation of aromatic β-glucosides in E. coli consist of the bgl, asc, and chb operons and the locus bglA encoding phospho-β-glucosidase A. The bgl and asc operons are known as cryptic ...
Glucose and Lipid Metabolism during Pregnancy and Lactation in Rats : Role of Undercarboxylated Osteocalcin
(2018-02-07)
Energy homeostasis is an important physiological mechanism essential for balancingenergy flow through the living systems by managing overall metabolism in the body.
Thus, energy homeostasis is under a tight control by means ...
