Good endocrinology journal. It has some interesting content but more for the clinical/healthcare side.

Article

Commented on Reversion Of Lung Fibrosis In C57BL6 Mice Using Statins
Statins to treat lung fibrosis makes sense since there is research demonstrating the negative impact of high cholesterol on the lungs.

Article

Commented on Interleukin-6 level is a powerful predictor of long-term cardiovascular mortality in patients with acute coronary syndrome
Interleukin-6 as a predictor of cardiovascular health...interesting!

Article

Commented on Protein docking prediction using predicted protein-protein interface
New tool to better predict protein docking based on protein-protein. interaction. The authors believe it to be better than other currently existing alternatives. Has anyone tried it?

Article

Commented on Role of Omega3 fatty acids and DHA in Dyslipidemias in the pediatric age
Omega 3 especially in the form of DHA has been known to be extremely important for infants as well as adults.

Journal

Commented on ONCOGENE
One of the best oncology journal that covers molecular biology of cancer.

Journal

Commented on Cell Stem Cell
Prestigious peer-reviewed scientific journal by Cell Press. It has maintained a considerably high impact factor for the past five years.

Article

Commented on Organoids by design
The authors discuss engineering design to control the morphogenesis and patterning of organoids amongst other things. Looking forward to follow-up research/results.

Article

Commented on Cholesterol modulates cellular TGF-β responsiveness by altering TGF-β binding to TGF-β receptors
An interesting paper on how cholesterol (LDL/VLDL) degrades and inhibits the TGF-beta signaling pathway since TGF-beta is widely studied as a therapeutic target for cancer.

Article

Commented on DNA demethylation by DNA repair
Base excision repair leads to demethylation in DNA by significantly affecting 5mC turnover in cells.

Article

Commented on Bisphosphonates in preclinical bone oncology
Interesting article on how bisphosphonates exhibit antitumor activity. There is alternate evidence that long-term use may also cause brittle bones. I guess more in-depth research is needed.
