BACKGROUND: Understanding the molecular basis underlying the formation of bone-forming osteocytes and lipid-storing adipocytes will help provide insights into the cause of disorders originating in stem/progenitor cells and develop therapeutic treatments for bone- or adipose-related diseases. In this stud...
BACKGROUND: Acetylcholine (ACh) is known to be a key neurotransmitter in the central and peripheral nervous systems, which is also produced in a variety of non-neuronal tissues and cell. The existence of ACh in maxilla in vivo and potential regulation role for osteogenesis need further study. RESULTS: Co...
Muchas enfermedades reumáticas autoinmunes se caracterizan por hiperreactividad de sus linfocitos B que resulta en hipergammaglobulinemia y emergencia de autoanticuerpos. Recientemente se ha demostrado que la IL-10 es uno de los más potentes activadores de los linfocitos B. Induce en ellos proliferaciÃ...
