Platelet-derived growth factor activates nociceptive neurons by inhibiting M-current and contributes to inflammatory pain.

Omer Barkai et al.

Pain, 160(6), 1281-1296 (2019-04-02)

Endogenous inflammatory mediators contribute to the pathogenesis of pain by acting on nociceptors, specialized sensory neurons that detect noxious stimuli. Here, we describe a new factor mediating inflammatory pain. We show that platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB applied in vitro causes

Systematic characterization of cell cycle phase-dependent protein dynamics and pathway activities by high-content microscopy-assisted cell cycle phenotyping.

Christopher Bruhn et al.

Genomics, proteomics & bioinformatics, 12(6), 255-265 (2014-12-03)

Cell cycle progression is coordinated with metabolism, signaling and other complex cellular functions. The investigation of cellular processes in a cell cycle stage-dependent manner is often the subject of modern molecular and cell biological research. Cell cycle synchronization and immunostaining

Deficiency of Th17 cells in hyper IgE syndrome due to mutations in STAT3.

Cindy S Ma et al.

The Journal of experimental medicine, 205(7), 1551-1557 (2008-07-02)

Hyper-immunoglobulin E syndrome (HIES) is a primary immune deficiency characterized by abnormal and devastating susceptibility to a narrow spectrum of infections, most commonly Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans. Recent investigations have identified mutations in STAT3 in the majority of HIES

Fertility and sterility, 101(6), 1588-1593 (2014-04-03)

To evaluate sperm DNA fragmentation in normozoospermic male partners of couples undergoing infertility evaluation. Retrospective cohort study. Clinical andrology laboratory. A total of 1,974 consecutive normozoospermic men selected from a larger cohort of 4,345 consecutive, nonazoospermic men presenting for infertility

Direct Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase Activation Provides Atheroprotection in Diabetes-Accelerated Atherosclerosis.

Arpeeta Sharma et al.

Diabetes, 64(11), 3937-3950 (2015-06-28)

Patients with diabetes have an increased risk of developing atherosclerosis. Endothelial dysfunction, characterized by the lowered bioavailability of endothelial NO synthase (eNOS)-derived NO, is a critical inducer of atherosclerosis. However, the protective aspect of eNOS in diabetes-associated atherosclerosis remains controversial
