    Scaffold protein Lin7 family in membrane skeletal protein complex in mouse seminiferous tubules

    The membrane skeletal complex, protein 4.1G–membrane palmitoylated protein 6 (MPP6), is localized in spermatogonia and early spermatocytes of mouse seminiferous tubules. In this study, we investigated the Lin7...

    Serum heat shock protein 47 levels are elevated in acute exacerbation of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

    Little is known about the pathophysiology of acute exacerbation (AE) of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Heat shock protein 47 (HSP47), a collagen-specific molecular chaperone, is essential for biosynthesi...
