In molecular biology, a riboswitch is a regulatory segment of a messenger RNA molecule that binds a small molecule, resulting in a change in production of the proteins encoded by the mRNA.[1][2][3]...
Estradiol, or more precisely, 17β-estradiol, is a human sex hormone and steroid, and the primary female sex hormone. It is named for and is important in the regulation of the estrous and menstrual ...

Neuroregeneration refers to the regrowth or repair of nervous tissues, cells or cell products. Such mechanisms may include generation of new neurons, glia, axons, myelin, or synapses. Neuroregenera...
Survivin, also called baculoviral inhibitor of apoptosis repeat-containing 5 or BIRC5, is a protein that, in humans, is encoded by the BIRC5 gene.[1][2] NCBI Reference Sequence: NG_029069.1 Surv...
Neoplasm (from Ancient Greek νέος- neo "new" and πλάσμα plasma "formation, creation") is an abnormal growth of tissue, and when also forming a mass is commonly referred to as a tumor or tumour.[1][...
A nanostructure is a structure of intermediate size between microscopic and molecular structures. Nanostructural detail is microstructure at nanoscale. In describing nanostructures it is necessa...
Caspase-9 is an initiator caspase,[1] encoded by the CASP9 gene. CASP9 orthologs [2] have been identified in all mammals for which complete genome data are available. Unique orthologs are also pres...
Reticulon 4 receptor (RTN4R) also known as Nogo-66 Receptor (NgR) is a protein which in humans is encoded by the RTN4R gene.[1] This gene encodes the receptor for reticulon 4, oligodendrocytemyelin...
Transduction is the process by which DNA is transferred from one bacterium to another by a virus.[1] It also refers to the process whereby foreign DNA is introduced into another cell via a viral ve...
The Notch signaling pathway is a highly conserved cell signaling system present in most multicellular organisms.[1] Notch is present in all metazoans, and mammals possess four different notch recep...
Pre-eclampsia or preeclampsia (PE) is a disorder of pregnancy characterized by high blood pressure and a large amount of protein in the urine.[1] The disorder usually occurs in the third trimester ...
Notch (DSL) proteins are a family of transmembrane proteins with repeated extracellular EGF domains and the notch (or DSL) domains. These proteins are involved in lateral inhibition in embryogenesi...

Antiviral drugs are a class of medication used specifically for treating viral infections.[1] Like antibiotics for bacteria, specific antivirals are used for specific viruses. Unlike most antibioti...
Intraflagellar transport or IFT is a bidirectional motility along axonemal microtubules that is essential for the formation (ciliogenesis) and maintenance of most eukaryotic cilia and flagella.[1] ...
Channelopathies are diseases caused by disturbed function of ion channel subunits or the proteins that regulate them.[1][2] These diseases may be either congenital (often resulting from a mutation ...
