p38 MAPK mediated in compressive stress-induced chondrogenesis of rat bone marrow MSCs in 3D alginate scaffolds.

29 Nov 2009 Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are well known to have the capability to form bone and cartilage, and chondrogenesis derived from MSCs is reported to be affected by mechanical stimuli. This research was aimed to study the effects of cyclic compressive ... Read more...

PI3K/AKT regulates aggrecan gene expression by modulating Sox9 expression and activity in nucleus pulposus cells of the intervertebral disc.

29 Nov 2009 The goal of the investigation was to test the hypothesis that the phosphoinositide-3 kinase (PI3K)/AKT signaling pathway regulates the expression of the major extracellular matrix component of the intervertebral disc, aggrecan, in nucleus pulposus ... Read more...

Expression and role of adrenomedullin in renal tumors and value of its mRNA levels as prognostic factor in clear-cell renal carcinoma.

13 Nov 2009 Antiangiogenic therapies are used for advanced clear-cell renal carcinomas (cRCC), but without curative possibilities, underlining the need for new therapeutic targets. Adrenomedullin (AM), a multifunctional peptide, is highly expressed in several ... Read more...
