Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Dynamic of Afamin and Alpha-Fetoprotein Expression during Rat Liver DevelopmentIndriyani, Isabella Kurnia Liem, Puspita Eka Wuyung et al.Liver has a high level of Alpha-fetoprotein which is assumed to be important for mammalian development. However, Alpha-fetoprotein knockout studies in mice suggested that despite the absence of Alpha-fetoprotein, mice developed normally; the only abnormality observed was infertility in female mice. There are indications that Afamin, a protein that has a gene sequence located on the same chromosome as Alpha-fetoprotein, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 5 Feb 2021 · 6,766 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBeef Productivity of Limousine Cattle at Stable KeepingIrina Vlasova, Inna Ventsova, Alexander Vostroilov et al.The regularities of the post-embryonic development of farm animals have been studied by numerous researchers. Their ontogenesis is a result of the complex interaction of animal genotype with those conditions of the external environment in which their hereditary basis is realized. In Russia, the stable keeping system of the cattle is highly relevant as many farms do not have large … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 23 Oct 2020 · 6,762 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) on Dental Pulp Stem Cells (DPSC)Eric Mullins, Cale Forgues, Karl KingsleyDental Pulp Stem Cells (DPSCs) are non-embryonic, mesenchymal stem cells that may have significant potential for therapeutic and regenerative biomedical applications. Studies of DPSC differentiation have demonstrated the potential to form many tissue types, including neural, osteogenic and vascular precursors using cytokines and growth factors, such as Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF). Eight previously isolated Dental Pulp Stem Cell (DPSC) … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 1 Jun 2019 · 13,831 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExpression of microRNA miR-27, miR-124 and miR-218 Among Dental Pulp Stem Cell (DPSC) IsolatesMark Whiting, Karl KingsleyDental Pulp Stem Cells (DPSCs) are non-embryonic, mesenchymal stem cells that may have significant potential for therapeutic and regenerative biomedical applications. MicroRNAs are small non-coding RNA molecules that can act as transcriptional activators and repressors in many types of mesenchymal stem cells. To date, few studies have evaluated the expression or activity of microRNAs among dental pulp stem cells. Using … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 1 Jan 2019 · 8,167 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractIs Rerum® the New Coley's Vaccine?Marco RuggieroColey's Vaccine and Cancer Immunotherapy Dr. William B. Coley is credited for having been the first to translate the observation of an association between bacterial infections, high fever and cancer remission into a successful cancer treatment. However, it is worth noting that such an association dates back to at least one century before Coley's times; as Wiemann and Starnes from … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 31 May 2017 · 12,281 accessesView PDFCite
