Updates on Inflammatory Molecular Pathways Mediated by ADAM17 in Autoimmunity.

ADAM17 is a member of the disintegrin and metalloproteinase (ADAM) family of transmembrane proteases with immunoregulatory activity in multiple signaling pathways. The functional ADAM17 is involved in the shedding of the ectodomain characterizing many substrates belonging to growth factors, cytokines, receptors, and adhesion molecules. The ADAM17-dependent pathways are known to be crucial in tumor development and progression and in the modulation of many pathological and physiological processes.

Epigenetic Modulations of Non-Coding RNAs: A Novel Therapeutic Perspective in Sjӧgren's Syndrome.

Sjögren's syndrome (SS) is an autoimmune disease that can be classified as an epithelitis based on the immune-mediated attack directed specifically at epithelial cells. SS predominantly affects women, is characterized by the production of highly specific circulating autoantibodies, and the major targets are the salivary and lachrymal glands. Although a genetic predisposition has been amply demonstrated for SS, the etiology remains unclear.

Modeling green energy and innovation for ecological risk management using second generation dynamic quantile panel data model.

Ecological risk management has emerged as a critical research and policy development area in energy and environmental economics. Sustained ecology is crucial for the standard of living and food security. As the adverse impacts of environmental degradation and climate change become increasingly apparent it is imperative to understand ecological risk and its interconnectedness with environmental pressure, clean energy, economic activity, globalization, and green technology.
