Interaction of the T cell receptor (TCR) with an MHC-antigenic peptide complex results in
changes at the molecular and cellular levels in T cells. The outside environmental cues are …

The applications of Western/immunoblotting (WB) techniques have reached multiple layers
of the scientific community and are now considered routine procedures in the field of …

Lipid peroxidation (LPO), a process that affects human health, can be induced by exposure
to vanadium salts and compounds. LPO is often exacerbated by oxidation stress, with some …

At least 468 individual genes have been manipulated by molecular methods to study their
effects on the initiation, promotion, and progression of atherosclerosis. Most clinicians and …

Protein tyrosine phosphatase–1B (PTP-1B) has been implicated in the negative regulation
of insulin signaling. Disruption of the mouse homolog of the gene encoding PTP-1B yielded …

Vanadium is a trace element, which may be beneficial and possibly essential in humans1
but certainly essential for some living organisms. 2r11 Metal ions and thus vanadium ions …

This article provides an overview on the application of metallic ions in the fields of
regenerative medicine and tissue engineering, focusing on their therapeutic applications …

Cells require tight regulation of the intracellular redox balance and consequently of reactive
oxygen species for proper redox signaling and maintenance of metal (eg, of iron and …

Oxidants such as H2O2 are connected to lymphocyte activation, but the molecular
mechanisms behind this phenomenon are less clear. Here, I review data suggesting that by …

Stimulation of various cells with growth factors results in a transient increase in the
intracellular concentration of H 2 O 2 that is required for growth factor-induced protein …
