We previously identified curcumin as a potent inducer of fibroblast apoptosis, which could be used to treat hypertrophic scar formation. Here we investigated the underlying mechanism of this process. Curcumin-induced apoptosis could not be blocked by caspase-inhibitors and we could

Enteric neurotransmission is essential for gastrointestinal (GI) motility, although the cells and conductances responsible for post-junctional responses are controversial. The calcium-activated chloride conductance (CaCC), anoctamin-1 (Ano1), was expressed by intramuscular interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC-IM) in proximal stomach and not

The mechanical, rheological and shape properties of red blood cells are determined by their cortical cytoskeleton, evolutionarily optimized to provide the dynamic deformability required for flow through capillaries much narrower than the cell's diameter. The shear stress induced by such

Using serial analysis of myocardial gene expression employing endomyocardial biopsy starting material in a dilated cardiomyopathy cohort, we show that mRNA expression of the severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) cardiac myocyte receptor ACE2 is up-regulated with remodeling and with reverse
