Effect of 1,25(OH)2D3 on the proliferation of human mesangial cells and their expression of Ki67

Previous studies have found that 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3 or VD3] exerts many biological effects, including the inhibition of cell proliferation and induction of apoptosis, but its mechanism of action remains unclear. The goal of our investigation was to explore the effects of 1,25(OH)2D3 on the proliferation of cultured human mesangial cells and their .. Read More»

    M.-R. Ma, L. Hui, M.-L. Wang, Y. Tang, Y.-W. Chang, Q.-H. Jia, X.-P. Yang, X.-H. Wang and X.-Q. Ha

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a major health problem worldwide. This virus and its hosts are often fated to continual co-evolutionary interactions. Codon usage analysis has significance for studies of co-evolution between viruses, their hosts, and mRNA translation. Adaptation of the overall codon usage pattern of HBV to that of humans is estimated using the synonymous codon usage value (.. Read More»
