        Cancer : approaching a universal molecular mechanism? 

        Ricketts, M. H. (Health & Medical Publishing Group, 1990)
        Accumulating evidence strongly suggests that cancer is a genetic disease, arising from mutations in DNA. These mutations alter the function or synthesis of two groups of proteins, which are the products of either proto-oncogenes ...

        Cardiac glucolipotoxicity and cardiovascular outcomes 

        Cerf, Marlon E. (MDPI, 2018)
        Cardiac insulin signaling can be impaired due to the altered fatty acid metabolism to induce insulin resistance. In diabetes and insulin resistance, the metabolic, structural and ultimately functional alterations in the ...

        Combination of radiosensitizers and hyperthermia in tumour radiotherapy 

        Brueckner, V. (1981)
        Specific metabolic properties of hypoxic (and therefore radio-resistant) tumour cells are responsible for the selective effect of radiosensitizers (such as misonidazole) and hyperthermia upon these cells in respect of ...

        Diabetes mellitus and male infertility 

        Omolaoye, Temidayo; Du Plessis, Stefan S. (Medknow, 2018)
        ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Infertility is prevalent in about 10%-25% of couples in their reproductive age, analogous to 60-80 million infertile couples globally. Of these infertility cases, 10%-30% are exclusively attributed to ...

        DNA methylation of FKBP5 in South African women : associations with obesity and insulin resistance 

        Willmer, Tarryn; Goedecke, Julia H.; Dias, Stephanie; Louw, Johan; Pheiffer, Carmen (BMC (part of Springer Nature), 2020-09-21)
        Background: Disruption of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis, a neuroendocrine system associated with the stress response, has been hypothesized to contribute to obesity development. This may be mediated through ...

        The effect of dietary red palm oil on the functional recovery of the ischaemic/reperfused isolated rat heart : the involvement of the PI3-Kinase signaling pathway 

        Engelbrecht, Anna-Mart; Odendaal, Louise; Du Toit, Eugene F.; Kupai, Krisztina; Czont, Tamas; Ferdinandy, Peter; Van Rooyen, Jacques (BioMed Central, 2009-05)
        We have previously shown that dietary red palm oil (RPO) supplementation improves functional recovery in hearts subjected to ischaemia/reperfusion-induced injury. Unfortunately, the cellular and molecular mechanisms ...
