Bile acid synthesis in the liver is regulated by the rate-limiting enzyme cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase (CYP7A1). Transcription of the CYP7A1 gene is inhibited by bile acids and cytokines. The rate of bile acid synthesis is reduced immediately after partial hepatectomy and
c-Met modulates RPE migratory response to laser-induced retinal injury.
The tyrosine kinase encoded by the MET proto-oncogene (p190MET) is the receptor for Hepatocyte Growth Factor/Scatter Factor (HGF/SF). Previous work has shown that autophosphorylation of p190MET enhances its enzymatic activity and that the major phosphorylation site is Tyr1235, located in

The met oncogene, encoding the high affinity hepatocyte growth factor receptor, is the only known gene inherited in human cancer that is invariably associated with somatic duplication of the mutant locus. Intriguingly, mutated Met requires ligand stimulation in order to

Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a haematologic malignancy. The proteasome inhibitor (PI) bortezomib has been approved to treat MCL, but resistance has emerged through mechanisms that remain unclear. This study aimed to explore the mechanism of PI resistance in MCL
