Actin is a 43 kDa highly conserved structural protein. There are three main actin isotypes (alpha, beta and gamma) which show >90% amino-acid (aa) homology between isotypes and >98% homology within members of a particular isotypic group. The majority of the isotype heterogeneity is located in the amino-terminal 30 aa. The different actin isotypes have been shown to behave very differently in vitro and in vivo. Recent studies describe differential subcellular localization of gamma-actin and isotype specific binding of actin associated proteins. Beta actin is one of the two nonmuscle cytoskeletal actins and is relatively stable and appears to remain at normal levels regardless of experimental treatment. It is generally used as an internal control for experiments.

Human giant larvae-1 (Hugl-1) is a human homologue of Drosophila tumor suppressor lethal (2)-giant larvae and has been reported to be involved in the development of human malignancies. Previous studies performed by our group demonstrated that Hugl-1 inhibits glioma cell
Perfluorinated chemicals (PFCs) are ubiquitously distributed in the environments including stainless pan-coating, raincoat, fire extinguisher, and semiconductor products. The PPAR family has been shown to contribute to the toxic effects of PFCs in thymus, immune and excretory systems. Herein, we
Biological and cellular interleukin-6 (IL-6)-related therapies have been used to treat severe COVID-19 pneumonia with hyperinflammatory syndrome and acute respiratory failure, which prompted further exploration of the role of IL-6 in human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell (hUCMSC) therapy.

Chronic inflammatory process in the nasal mucosa is correlated with poor smell perception. Over-activation of immune cells in the olfactory epithelium (OE) is generally associated with loss of olfactory function, and topical steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs have been largely used for
