SMALL OSCILLATORY ACCELERATIONS, INDEPENDENT OF MATRIX DEFORMATIONS, INCREASE OSTEOBLAST ACTIVITY AND ENHANCE BONE MORPHOLOGY.

Small oscillatory accelerations, independent of matrix deformations, increase osteoblast activity and enhance bone morphology.

A range of tissues have the capacity to adapt to mechanical challenges, an attribute presumed to be regulated through deformation of the cell and/or surrounding matrix.In contrast, it is shown here that extremely small oscillatory accelerations, applied as unconstrained motion and inducing negligible deformation, serve as an anabolic stimulus to os

Inducing ubiquitination and degradation of TrxR1 protein by LW-216 promotes apoptosis in non-small cell lung cancer via triggering ROS production

Thioredoxin reductases are frequently overexpressed in various solid tumors as a protective mechanism against heightened oxidative stress.Inhibitors of this system, such as Auranofin, are effective in eradicating cancer cells.However, the clinical significance of thioredoxin reductase 1 (TrxR1) in lung cancer, as well as the potential for its antag

ROMANIAN SMALL TOWNS SEARCHING FOR THEIR IDENTITY

Romanian small towns - urban settlements of less than 20000 inhabitants, having a polarizing function with respect to the socio-economic activities PRINT in the deeply rural areas - are considered an interface between rural and urban communities.Determining the identity of small towns is rather difficult, because complex and varied political, socia
