Unfolded Protein Response (UPR) Signaling in Hepatic Stellate Cells (HSC) as a Key Regulator of Liver Fibrosis
… (HSCs), which secrete extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins such as collagen to form fibrotic scars. Activated HSCs produce vast amounts of fibrotic proteins that require folding and processing prior to secretion. Increased protein folding demands cause endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and initiate …

Effects of fescue toxicosis and chronic heat stress on murine hepatic gene expression
… lipid metabolism. Genes coding for ribosomes and protein synthesis were up-regulated by the E+ diet. Mice were also used to study the effects of chronic heat stress on hepatic gene expression. Twenty-five mice were randomly allocated to either chronic heat stress (cHS; 34 ± 1C̕) or thermoneutral …

Identification of transcription factor genes in plants
… gene families that possess characteristic protein domains. In this work we have exploited the presence of protein domains to create rules that serve for the identification and classification of TFs. We have modelled such rules as a bipartite graph, where families and protein domains are …
