    β-elemene regulates M1-M2 macrophage balance through the ERK/JNK/P38 MAPK signaling pathway

    Macrophages are classified into classically activated M1 macrophages and alternatively activated M2 macrophages, and the two phenotypes of macrophages are present during the development of various chronic dise...

    DNMT1-mediated methylation inhibits microRNA-214-3p and promotes hair follicle stem cell differentiate into adipogenic lineages

    Dysfunction of the DNA methylation was associated with stem cell reprogramming. Moreover, DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) deficiency was involved in the differentiation of hair follicle stem cell (HFSc), but t...

    Exploration of phenol tolerance mechanism through antioxidative responses of an evolved strain, Chlorella sp. L5

    Phenol is a typical pollutant which can be degraded by microalgae. Phenol induces formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Tolerance to oxidative damage produced by ROS is critical for phenol degradation by...

    Enhanced growth by ectopic expression of growth hormone releasing hormone using an injectable myogenic vector

    Ectopic expression of a truncated growth hormone–releasing hormone (GHRH) from muscle tissues by a myogenic plasmid DNA vector directed by the skeletal α-actin promoter, pSK-GHRH, results in growth hormone (GH...
