Bilirubin, the principal bile pigment, is the end product of heme catabolism. For many years,
bilirubin was thought to have no physiological function other than that of a waste product of …

Apolipoprotein D is a chordate gene early originated in the Lipocalin protein family. Among
other features, regulation of its expression in a wide variety of disease conditions in humans …

Evidence from numerous cancers suggests that increased aggressiveness is accompanied
by up-regulation of signaling pathways and acquisition of properties common to stem cells. It …

ERG gene rearrangements are found in about one half of all prostate cancers. Functional
analyses do not fully explain the selective pressure causing ERG rearrangement during the …

Purpose Inverse correlations of apolipoprotein D (ApoD) expression with tumor growth have
been shown, therefore proposing ApoD as a good prognostic marker for diverse cancer …

Less than a decade has elapsed since the publication in 2000 of the first anthology devoted
to lipocalins (Biochim Biophys Acta 1482, 2000), and only a few years since the first …

Abstract Background and Objectives Apolipoprotein D (Apo D) is a protein component of the
human plasma lipid transport system, and an androgen‐regulated protein in both breast and …

Bilirubin, a major product of heme catabolism, belongs to compounds with pleiotropic
biologic effects. Although for decades it was considered as a metabolite dangerous for …

Apolipoprotein D (apoD), so called because of its association with plasma lipoproteins,
belongs to the lipocalin superfamily. In human, apoD is present in many fluids, expressed in …

The study on dynamic analysis of human urinary proteome is the foundation that we
discriminate certain various urinary proteins as potential bio-marker derived from the …
