[ 1 ] - Recognition and characterization of Erythropoietin binding-proteins in the brain of mice

Objective(s): Erythropoietin (EPO), is a 34KDa glycoprotein hormone, which belongs to type 1 cytokine superfamily. EPO involves in erythrocyte maturation through inhibition of apoptosis in erythroid cells. Besides its main function, protective effects of EPO in heart and brain tissues have been reported. EPO has a critical role in development, growth, and homeostasis of brain. Furthermore EPO h...

[ 2 ] - Screening and identification of SUMP-proteins in sub-acute treatment with diazinon

Objective(s):Small ubiquitin-like modifiers (SUMOs) are a family of ubiquitin-related, proteins that are involved in a wide variety of signaling pathways. SUMOylation, as a vital post translational modification, regulate protein function in manycellular processes. Diazinon (DZN), an organophosphate insecticide, causses oxidative stress and subsequently programmed cell death in different tissues...
