Background Intra-articular injection of monosodium iodoacetate (MIA) in the knee joint of rats disrupts chondrocyte metabolism resulting in cartilage degeneration and subsequent nociceptive behavior that has been described as a model of osteoarthritis (OA) pain. Central sensitization through activation of ...
Proteins enter thecis-Golgi, pass sequentially through all the cisternae, and leave through the TGN, which is the organelle's sorting component.[10][8]The TGN sends proteins to the plasma membrane, endosomes, or lysosomes. Pakdel and Blume concluded that sorting at the TGN occurs through a C...
jointpainand deterioration so severe that joint replacement is typically needed by the age of 50 in the modern clinicalenvironment. Garrod's knowledge of biochemistry, specifically of the biochemical pathway that produces homogentisate, helped him propose an important hypothesis explaining the underlying ...
Combating the spread of drug resistant tuberculosis is a global health priority. Whole genome association studies are being applied to identify genetic determinants of resistance to anti-tuberculosis drugs. Protein structure and interaction modelling are
In this way, PPAD complements endogenous PADs and creates new exogenous epitopes for autoimmune response, which have been associated with RA disease progression15. Taken together, all these results suggest that the link between RA and P. gingivalis-induced PD may result from PPAD-mediated ...
We speculate that it should be due to the recruitment of endogenous TGF-β1, which creates an anti-inflammatory environment, reducing the expression of MMP13, which leads to the appearance of Col-II [46]. Recruiting hydrogels can recruit cells or cytokines, so it has a long-term effective ...
Our primary hypothesis was that high-intensity, dynamic resistance exercise training (HIT-RT) supported by whey protein supplementation has a significantly positive effect (defined as difference from a non-training control group) on osteopenia and sarcopenia in older men with osteosarcopenia. ...
Of the three Skylab astronauts that lost calcaneus bone, only one showed recovery during the first 90 days post-flight, and all four continued to lose bone for the next five years [15,43]. This lack of recovery or plasticity of bone is important not only for mission success in astronauts...
while there appears to be distinct temporal and biochemical discrepancies between our findings and pain models involving peripheral nerve injury, the pathogenic differences that likely exist between joint and nerve injury may explain these variations. it is noteworthy that the contralateral spinal dorsal ...
