Background:Heat-shock protein 90 (Hsp90) has a crucial role in both the stabilisation and regulation of various proteins, including those related to radioresistance. Inhibition of Hsp90 may therefore… (More)
We as well as others have recently shown that Hsp90 is overexpressed in multiple myeloma (MM) and critically contributes to tumour cell survival. Pharmacologic blockade of Hsp90 has consistently been… (More)
The thrombin receptor was the first cloned G protein-coupled receptor reported to be activated by proteolytic cleavage of its extracellular amino terminus. A second proteinase-activated receptor… (More)
The current trend of antimony (Sb) unresponsiveness in the Indian subcontinent is a major impediment to effective chemotherapy of visceral leishmaniasis (VL). Although contributory mechanisms studied… (More)
Sialic acids typically present as terminal sugars of oligo-saccharides are reported to be modified by O-acetylation at the C-9 position on lymphoblasts of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL)… (More)
In the future, we can expect to see more dynamic service offerings and profiles, as users move from long-term service provider agreements to more opportunistic service models. Moreover, when the… (More)
1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) [1,25(OH)(2)D(3)] has been shown to act on novel target tissues not related to calcium homeostasis. There have been reports characterizing 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) receptors… (More)
The effect of oral administration of sodium selenite on glucose homoeostasis was studied in male Swiss albino mice 6 weeks after they were made diabetic with streptozotocin. Diabetes caused… (More)
Stress development depended on calcium-stimulated myosin phosphorylation in an arterial smooth muscle preparation in which the concentration of calcium was controlled. However, developed stress was… (More)
