Journal ArticleDOI
Roles of pi3k/akt/gsk3/mtor pathway in cell signaling of mental illnesses
TL;DR: Progress is summarized on the involvement of the PI3K/AKT/GSK3 pathways in cell signaling of neuronal cells in mental illnesses and how this may provide an important signaling for the neuroprotection in depression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Roles for PI3K/AKT/PTEN Pathway in Cell Signaling of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
TL;DR: Molecular studies in the NAFLD support a key role for PTEN in hepatic insulin sensitivity and the development of steatosis, steatohepatitis, and fibrosis, and review recent studies on the features of the PTEN and the PI3K/AKT pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI
Function and Characteristics of PINK1 in Mitochondria
TL;DR: Functional studies have revealed that PINK1 recruits Parkin to mitochondria to initiate the mitophagy, and posttranslationally processed, whose level is definitely regulated in healthy steady state of mitochondria, and plays a pivotal role in mitochondrial healthy homeostasis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression and Function of PPARs in Placenta
TL;DR: Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors are members of the superfamily of nuclear hormone receptors involved in embryonic development and differentiation of several tissues including placenta, which respond to specific ligands by altering gene expression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Defective DNA repair systems and the development of breast and prostate cancer (review).
TL;DR: A comprehensive view is provided of the molecular mechanisms by which hormones may exert their effects on the regulation of tumor regulation, providing a comprehensive view of the function of DNA repair molecules from the viewpoint of carcinogenesis.
