The transcriptional regulators YAP and TAZ are the focus of intense interest given their remarkable biological properties in development, tissue homeostasis and cancer. YAP and TAZ activity is key for the growth of whole organs, for amplifi...
Neuronal SUMOylation: mechanisms, physiology, and roles in neuronal dysfunction [0.03%]
神经元SUMO化:机制、生理和在神经元功能障碍中的作用

All cellular compartments are separated from the external environment by a membrane, which consists of a lipid bilayer. Subcellular structures, including clathrin-coated pits, caveolae, filopodia, lamellipodia, podosomes, and other intracel...
Bone development and mineral homeostasis in the fetus and neonate: roles of the calciotropic and phosphotropic hormones [0.03%]

Mineral and bone metabolism are regulated differently in utero compared with the adult. The fetal kidneys, intestines, and skeleton are not dominant sources of mineral supply for the fetus. Instead, the placenta meets the fetal need for min...

Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is a 37-amino acid neuropeptide. Discovered 30 years ago, it is produced as a consequence of alternative RNA processing of the calcitonin gene. CGRP has two major forms (α and β). It belongs to a gro...
Astrocyte reactivity and reactive astrogliosis: costs and benefits [0.03%]

Astrocytes are the most abundant cells in the central nervous system (CNS) that provide nutrients, recycle neurotransmitters, as well as fulfill a wide range of other homeostasis maintaining functions. During the past two decades, astrocyte...
Early developmental conditioning of later health and disease: physiology or pathophysiology? [0.03%]
早期发育对后期健康与疾病的影响:生理学还是病理生理学?

Much is known about the mechanotransducer (MT) channels mediating transduction in hair cells of the vertrbrate inner ear. With the use of isolated preparations, it is experimentally feasible to deliver precise mechanical stimuli to individu...
Mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) and ROS-induced ROS release [0.03%]
