Background Ovarian cancer is the fifth leading cause of cancer deaths among women. Early
stage disease often remains undetected due the lack of symptoms and reliable biomarkers. …

Chronic stress and elevated glucocorticoid hormone are associated with decreases in the
intestinal epithelial tight junction protein claudin-1 (CLDN1). Human/rat CLDN1 promoters …

In humans, chronic psychological stress is associated with increased intestinal paracellular
permeability and visceral hyperalgesia, which is recapitulated in the chronic intermittent …

Quantitative analysis of morphological changes in a cell nucleus is important for the
understanding of nuclear architecture and its relationship with pathological conditions such as …

Stress is known to perturb the microbiome and exacerbate irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
associated symptoms. Characterizing structural and functional changes in the microbiome is …

The differential recruitment of coregulatory proteins to the DNA-bound estrogen receptor α (ERα)
plays a critical role in mediating estrogen-responsive gene expression. We previously …

Cell deformation is regulated by complex underlying biological mechanisms associated
with spatial and temporal morphological changes in the nucleus that are related to cell …

We have used a chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP)-based cloning strategy to isolate and
identify genes associated with estrogen receptor α (ERα) in MCF-7 human breast cancer …

Ovarian cancer is a multigenic disease and molecular events driving ovarian cancer
progression are not well established. We have previously reported the dysregulation of the …

Exposure to a power-frequency magnetic field has been reported to produce a statistically
significant inhibition of gap junctional communication (GJC) in Clone 9 cells that have been …
