Association of transcription factor 7-like 2 rs12255372 polymorphism with susceptibility of type 2 diabetes mellitus in Bangladeshi population
Polymorphism of transcription factor 7-like 2 (TCF7L2) has a link with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) through β cell dysfunction that causes defect in blood glucose homeostasis. This case–control study recruited...

Open AccessAncestral function of Inhibitors-of-kappaB regulates Caenorhabditis elegans development
Mammalian IκB proteins (IκBs) exert their main function as negative regulators of NF-κB, a central signaling pathway controlling immunity and inflammation. An alternative chromatin role for IκBs has been shown...

Open AccessSingle cell RNA-sequencing identifies a metabolic aspect of apoptosis in Rbf mutant
The function of Retinoblastoma tumor suppressor (pRB) is greatly influenced by the cellular context, therefore the consequences of pRB inactivation are cell-type-specific. Here we employ single cell RNA-sequen...
