Somatic USP8 mutations are frequent events in corticotroph tumor progression causing Nelson's tumor.
(2018-01)
OBJECTIVE: Somatic mutations in the ubiquitin-specific protease 8 (USP8) gene are frequent in corticotroph tumors causing Cushing's disease (CD). Corticotroph tumor progression, the so-called Nelson's syndrome (NS), is a ...
The effect of life course socioeconomic position on crystallised cognitive ability in two large UK cohort studies: a structured modelling approach.
(2017-06-02)
OBJECTIVES: This study systematically compared accumulation, sensitive period, critical period and social mobility models relating life course socioeconomic position (SEP) and adult crystallised cognitive ability, which ...
Trends in congenital anomalies in Europe from 1980 to 2012.
(2018)
BACKGROUND: Surveillance of congenital anomalies is important to identify potential teratogens. METHODS: This study analysed the prevalence of 61 congenital anomaly subgroups (excluding chromosomal) in 25 population-based ...
Rhomboid family member 2 regulates cytoskeletal stress-associated Keratin 16.
(2017-01-27)
Keratin 16 (K16) is a cytoskeletal scaffolding protein highly expressed at pressure-bearing sites of the mammalian footpad. It can be induced in hyperproliferative states such as wound healing, inflammation and cancer. ...
The cytolinker plectin regulates nuclear mechanotransduction in keratinocytes.
(2015-12-15)
The transmission of mechanical forces to the nucleus is important for intracellular positioning, mitosis and cell motility, yet the contribution of specific components of the cytoskeleton to nuclear mechanotransduction ...
A mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1/2 (mTORC1)/V-Akt murine thymoma viral oncogene homolog 1 (AKT1)/cathepsin H axis controls filaggrin expression and processing in skin, a novel mechanism for skin barrier disruption in patients with atopic dermatitis.
(2017-04)
BACKGROUND: Filaggrin, which is encoded by the filaggrin gene (FLG), is an important component of the skin's barrier to the external environment, and genetic defects in FLG strongly associate with atopic dermatitis (AD). ...
Trauma proliferation and stress generation (TPSG) dynamics and their implications for clinical science.
(2018)
The current research and clinical focus on single traumas fails to assess numerous important trauma dynamics including trauma proliferation. In this study, 2 trauma proliferation pathways were identified that utilize a ...
Helpful advice and hidden expertize: pharmacy users' experiences of community pharmacy accessibility.
(2017-09-01)
Background: In recent years community pharmacies have emerged as strategically important settings to deliver services aimed at promoting public health. In order to develop evidence-based approaches to public health ...
Prevalence, determinants and clinical correlates of vitamin D deficiency in adults with inhaled corticosteroid-treated asthma in London, UK.
(2018-01)
Vitamin D deficiency is common in children with asthma, and it associates with poor asthma control, reduced forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) and increased requirement for inhaled corticosteroids (ICS). ...
