Given the endless accumulation of complete genomes of a remarkable number of organisms, one of the immediate objectives of the post-genomic era is the functional description of all the genes that make up a genome. To this end, considerable effort has...
AKR1B10 is a aldocetoreductasa (AKR) especially interesting for two reasons: it is overexpressed in lung cancer and precancerous lesions of smokers and becomes very efficient, the retinal to retinol, retinal reductase being the most active among AKR....
Research in the field of molecular processes of aging in the last decade can be described as enormous, with many surprises that explain many basic biological processes of multicellular organisms. Blasco and her team make much of the progress...
The ability of locomotion of cells to certain stimuli requires deep and dynamic changes in cell morphology and cell adhesion. Many of these attractive stimuli in the cell membrane activate G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), which emit signals that modify...
