Matrix vesicles (MVs) involved in the initiation of mineralization by deposition of hydroxyapatite (HA) in their lumen are released by the budding of mineralization-competent cells during skeletogenes
The aim of this study was to investigate two mineralization-related genes TNAP and ANKH polymorphisms associated with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) in the North Chinese Han population.
Matrix vesicles (MVs) play an important role in the initial stage of the process of bone mineralization, and are involved in multiple rare skeletal diseases with pathological mineralization or calcifi
Background: T393C polymorphism in the gene GNAS1, which encodes the Gαs subunit of heterotrimeric G protein, is significantly associated with the clinical outcome of patients suffering from several ca
Sin1 or MAPKAP1 is a key component of mTORC2 signaling complex necessary for AKT phosphorylation at the HM and TM sites, and for AKT downstream signaling.
Precise timing is important for many people in our daily life, and its also extremely important for nearly every biological process at the molecular level.
Aims and background MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of endogenous non-coding RNAs, 21-23 nucleotides long, which regulate gene expression at transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels.
