Proteomic Biomarkers: What They Are and How Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Has Similarities with Other Diseases
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is the most frequent form of diabetes, characterized by insulin resistance and impaired insulin release. Its... -
A genome-wide screening of the 70 kDa heat shock protein (HSP70) genes in the rotifer Brachionus plicatilis sensu stricto with a characterization of two heat-inducible HSP70 genes
The 70 kDa heat shock proteins (HSP70s) and the constitutive members of the HSP70 family (heat shock cognates; HSC70s) play essential roles in...
