Effect of Different Regional Characteristics of Spawning and Growing Sites on Growth and Taste of Pacific Oyster, .

While Pacific oysters are important commercial aquaculture species worldwide, the effect of hormonal regulation and environmental conditions on growth and taste profile have not been fully known. Insulin-like growth factor (IGF) systems are known to play a major role in regulating neuroendocrine functions across various physiological processes and are particularly involved in growth. IGFs expression also is directly related to the nutritional status of vertebrates, however, full mechanism has not been clearly identified in bivalves.

Silmitasertib (CX-4945) Disrupts ERα/HSP90 Interaction and Drives Proteolysis through the Disruption of CK2β Function in Breast Cancer Cells.

Aberrant estrogen receptor (ERα) signaling mediates detrimental effects of tamoxifen including drug resistance and endometrial hyperplasia. ERα36, an alternative isoform of ERα, contributes to these effects. We have demonstrated that CK2 modulates ERα expression and function in breast cancer (BCa).

Association of metformin with cardiovascular and graft outcomes in kidney transplant recipients with posttransplantation diabetes mellitus.

Background: Posttransplantation diabetes mellitus (PTDM) is a crucial problem after kidney transplantation. We aimed to determine whether metformin affects cardiovascular and graft outcomes in patients with PTDM.

Methods: This retrospective cohort study included 1,663 kidney transplant recipients without preexisting diabetes mellitus.
