Angiopoietins (ANGPTs) are ligands of the endothelial cell receptor TIE2 and have crucial
roles in the tumour angiogenic switch. Increased expression of ANGPT2 relative to ANGPT1 …

Despite our vast knowledge, the understanding of the regulation of gastric acid secretion in
health and disease is far from complete. A better understanding of the pathways and …

The gastric parietal cell was the first system where a regulated membrane recycling
hypothesis was proposed as the principal means for moving molecular transporters between …

In the stomach, strictly regulated cell adherens junctions are crucial in determining epithelial
cell differentiation. Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) regulates epithelial cell differentiation in the adult …

The ezrin-radixin-moesin proteins provide a regulated linkage between membrane proteins
and the cortical cytoskeleton and also participate in signal transduction pathways. Ezrin is …

Abstract Background Clinically, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT)-associated muscle
atrophy still lacks effective treatment. Deletion and mutation of L-periaxin can be involved in …

Aims CD 44 has been reported as a negative prognostic marker in gastric cancer. It interacts
with moesin in epithelial–mesenchymal transition. To date, to our knowledge, there has …

epithelium from stem and progeni Page 1 [Frontiers in Bioscience, Scholar, 5, 720-731 …

Potassium ions are required for gastric acid secretion. Several potassium channels have
been implicated in providing K+ at the apical membrane of parietal cells. In examining the …

Background: Gastric glands grow and cells reach differentiation at weaning in rats. By
considering that early weaning (EW) can affect the timing of development, we aimed to …
