Published: July 1991

With the present study we investigated both the presence of cytoplasmic estrogen (E-Rc) and progesterone (P-Rc) receptor, nuclear E-R (E-Rn) and the percentage of cycling tumor cells with Ki-67 MAB in 32 CNS tumor specimens. The main purpose of our study was to evaluate a possible correlation between the hormonal and kinetic parameters and the clinical and neuroradiological follow-up.

microorganisms play an important role in the zearalenone (ZEA) biotransformation process in natural environments. The phosphotransferase pathway in is both widespread and relatively well conserved. However, the reaction kinetics of these phosphotransferases remain poorly understood, and their catalytic activities are suboptimal.

Sepsis is a major cause of death in polytrauma patients, with delayed antibiotics increasing mortality. Although biological sex influences immune function and disease outcomes, gender-specific differences in inflammatory response and sepsis progression remain underexplored. This study examined the time-dependent behavior of C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT), and white blood cell count (WBC) in male and female polytrauma patients to evaluate their predictive value for sepsis.

The presence of endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) in water can impart detrimental effects on public health by mimicking the behaviors of natural hormones and their associated receptors in human body. Studies have demonstrated that ligninolytic enzymes such as laccase can degrade various phenolic compounds, including a broad range of EDCs. In this study, the technique of covalent immobilization of laccase through carbodiimide coupling chemistry on highly adsorptive reduced graphene oxide (rGO) sponges was utilized to effectively remove two representative EDCs; namely, bisphenol A (BPA) and triclosan (TCS) from water.

The parathyroid hormone type 1 receptor (PTH1R) plays a crucial role in modulating various physiological functions and is considered an effective therapeutic target for osteoporosis. However, a lack of detailed molecular and energetic information about PTH1R limits our comprehensive understanding of its activation process. In this study, we performed computational simulations to explore key events in the activation process, such as conformational changes in PTH1R, Gs protein coupling, and the release of guanosine diphosphate (GDP).
