Genetics of structural and functional brain changes in autism spectrum disorder.
(
Springer Nature
, 2020 , Article Review)
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurological and developmental disorder characterized by social impairment and restricted interactive and communicative behaviors. It may occur as an isolated disorder or in the context ...
Tight Junction Proteins and Signaling Pathways in Cancer and Inflammation: A Functional Crosstalk.
(
Frontiers Media
, 2019 , Article)
The ability of epithelial cells to organize through cell-cell adhesion into a functioning epithelium serves the purpose of a tight epithelial protective barrier. Contacts between adjacent cells are made up of tight junctions ...
Claudin-1, A Double-Edged Sword in Cancer.
(
MDPI
, 2020 , Article Review)
Claudins, a group of membrane proteins involved in the formation of tight junctions, are mainly found in endothelial or epithelial cells. These proteins have attracted much attention in recent years and have been implicated ...
Tumor microenvironment: an evil nexus promoting aggressive head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and avenue for targeted therapy.
(
Springer Nature
, 2021 , Article Review)
Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is a very aggressive disease with a poor prognosis for advanced-stage tumors. Recent clinical, genomic, and cellular studies have revealed the highly heterogeneous and ...
Exploring Dysregulated Signaling Pathways in Cancer.
(
Bentham Science Publishers
, 2020 , Article Review)
Cancer cell biology takes advantage of identifying diverse cellular signaling pathways that are disrupted in cancer. Signaling pathways are an important means of communication from the exterior of cell to intracellular ...
Ubiquitin-specific peptidase 37: an important cog in the oncogenic machinery of cancerous cells.
(
BMC
, 2021 , Article Review)
Protein ubiquitination is one of the most crucial posttranslational modifications responsible for regulating the stability and activity of proteins involved in homeostatic cellular function. Inconsistencies in the ...
Functional In Vivo Imaging of Tumors.
(
Springer
, 2020 , Book chapter)
Noninvasive imaging of functional and molecular changes in cancer has become an indispensable tool for studying cancer in vivo. Targeting the functional and molecular changes in cancer imaging provides a platform for the ...
Changes in resting-state functional brain activity are associated with waning cognitive functions in HIV-infected children.
(
Elsevier
, 2018 , Article)
Delayed brain development in perinatally HIV-infected children may affect the functional brain activity and subsequently cognitive function. The current study evaluated the functional brain activity in HIV-infected children ...
Brain Microstructural Changes Support Cognitive Deficits in Normal Children Born to HIVinfected Mothers
(2018 , Conference Proceedings)
Synopsis
In the current study, we evaluated the brain integrity [by mapping the fractional anisotropy (FA) and mean diffusivity (MD)] and neurocognitive
performance (NP) in normal children (NCI) born to HIV-infected ...
Role of non-coding RNA networks in leukemia progression, metastasis and drug resistance.
(
BMC
, 2020 , Article Review)
Early-stage detection of leukemia is a critical determinant for successful treatment of the disease and can increase the survival rate of leukemia patients. The factors limiting the current screening approaches to leukemia ...
