(BMJ Publishing Group, 2017-12)
Introduction Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation
(PNF) is a widely used rehabilitation concept, although its
efficacy has not yet been demonstrated in stroke survivors.
The aim of this systematic ...
The impact of KRAS mutations on VEGF-A production and tumour vascular network
(Springer Nature, 2013-03-18)
Background: The malignant potential of tumour cells may be influenced by the molecular nature of KRAS mutations being codon 13 mutations less aggressive than codon 12 ones. Their metabolic profile is ...
Boceprevir plus pegylated interferon/ribavirin to re-treat hepatitis C virus genotype 1 in HIV–HCV co-infected patients: final results of the Spanish BOC HIV–HCV Study
(Elsevier, 2016-12)
Introduction: Boceprevir (BOC) was one of the first oral inhibitors of hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS3 protease to be developed. This study assessed the safety and efficacy of BOC + pegylated interferon-α ...
Competition in the chaperone-client network subordinates cell-cycle entry to growth and stress
(Life Science Alliance, 2019-04-15)
The precise coordination of growth and proliferation has a
universal prevalence in cell homeostasis. As a prominent

Sensing of nutrients by CPT1C regulates late endosome/lysosome anterograde transport and axon growth
(eLife Sciences Publications, 2019)
Anterograde transport of late endosomes or lysosomes (LE/Lys) is crucial for proper axon growth. However, the role of energetic nutrients has been poorly explored. Malonyl-CoA is a precursor of fatty ...
