Pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) is a potent multifunctional protein that inhibits

Pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) is a potent multifunctional protein that inhibits angiogenesis and has neurogenic and neuroprotective properties. PEDF-transfected cells led to a reduction of the CNV area by 48% 14 days after transplantation and decreased clinical significant lesions by 55% and 40% after 7 and 14 days, respectively. We showed that transplantation of pigment… Continue reading Pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) is a potent multifunctional protein that inhibits

Emerging results suggest that ceramides with different fatty acid chain lengths

Emerging results suggest that ceramides with different fatty acid chain lengths might perform distinct functions in the regulation of tumor growth and therapy. ER is definitely a critical organelle in the induction of apoptosis and is responsible for intracellular Ca2+ storage. More important, the ER provides a topologically unique membranous network for protein modifications such… Continue reading Emerging results suggest that ceramides with different fatty acid chain lengths
