Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleNerve Growth Factor (NGF) Gene Analysis in Menstrual Blood of Endometriosis: DNA Methylation and mRNA Expression LevelsOcktariyana, Nurul Hikmawati et al.Menstrual blood flow is reversed through the fallopian tubes during the menstrual process and implants outside the uterus, which is the theory of pathogenesis in endometriosis sufferers. This study aims to analyze the level of DNA methylation and mRNA expression of the Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) gene in menstrual blood in endometriosis patients and analyze the correlation. The study was … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 2 · 7 Aug 2025 · 4,684 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleLumbricus rubellus Protein Fraction DLBS1033N Increases Nerve Growth Factor Expression via Tyrosine Kinase ActivationAgung Heru Karsono, Raymond Rubianto Tjandrawinata, Maggy Thenawidjaja SuhartonoNerve injury occurred due to mechanical, thermal, chemical, or ischemic factors. Nerve regeneration is needed for recovery. Schwann cell proliferation and differentiation are important factors in the nerve regeneration process. Schwann cells release neurotrophins in the nerve regeneration process. In this study, Lumbricus rubellus protein fraction DLBS1033N was used as therapeutic protein candidate for nerve regeneration treatments. DLBS1033N treatments promoted … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 7 Feb 2018 · 9,407 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractZinc Deficiency and Associated T-Cell Dysfunctioning among Human Immunodeficiency Virus SeropositivesM. Andrew Pradeep, M. Thiruvalluvan, V. Nalini, J. Stella MaryProblem statement: All the nutrients in the diet play a crucial role in maintaining an optimal immune response. In both, deficient and excessive intake of nutrients can have negative consequence on the immune status and susceptibility to a variety of pathogens. Zinc is an essential micronutrient for human growth development and immune function. It plays a vital role in structure … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 8,037 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEarly Cellular Responses of Purine Nucleoside-mediated Protection of Hypoxia-induced Injuries of Neuronal PC12 CellsBettina Tomaselli, Valerie Podhraski, Günther Böck, Gabriele Baier-BitterlichHypoxia in brain may lead to cell death by apoptosis and necrosis. In parallel adenosine, a powerful endogenous neuroprotectant is formed. We wanted to investigate the effect of adenosine and its purine nucleoside relatives, inosine and guanosine on early cellular responses to hypoxia. O2-sensitive neuronal PC12-cells were subjected to chemical hypoxia induced with rotenone, an inhibitor of mitochondrial complex I. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,853 accessesView PDF Cite
