Genetic markers that might contribute to the making of an elite athlete have not been identified. Potential candidate genes might be found in the renin-angiotensin pathway, which plays a key role in… (More)
Extracellular and cell surface proteins are generally modified with N-linked glycans and glycopeptide enrichment is an attractive tool to analyze these proteins. The role of N-linked glycoproteins in… (More)
DNA studies in familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (FHC) have shown that it is caused by mutations in genes coding for proteins which make up the muscle sarcomere. The majority of mutations in the… (More)
Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy has been used to study the angular distribution of a spin label attached to rabbit skeletal muscle myosin light chain 2. A cysteine reactive spin… (More)
The aim of this study was to investigate the role of metformin in the regulation of development and metastasis of ovarian carcinoma cell lines in vitro and ovarian cancer in a… (More)

Myosin binding protein C (MyBPC) is a sarcomeric protein whose role in sarcomere structure and regulation of contraction is currently under investigation. It is a member of the immunoglobulin… (More)
BACKGROUND
Chronic ulceration, especially in diabetes, remains a substantial clinical problem. Exogenous granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) is efficacious in the treatment of… (More)
The precise molecular basis for myocardial stunning remains unresolved, but protein damage within the myofibril is a likely mechanism. We used two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and mass… (More)
Sinus bradycardia can be defined as a sinus rhythm with a resting heart rate of 60 beats per minute or less. While it is assumed that increased autonomic parasympathetic activity is associated with… (More)
A slightly creamy, melanogenic, gram-negative, aerobic bacterium was isolated from seawater sample collected in the Karadag Natural Reserve of the Eastern Crimea, the Black Sea. The novel organism… (More)
