A Common Polymorphism in the 5′-Untranslated Region of the VEGF Gene Is Associated With Diabetic Retinopathy in Type 2 Diabetes

TL;DR: The data suggest that the C(-634)G polymorphism in the 5'UTR of the VEGF gene is a novel genetic risk factor for diabetic retinopathy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Essential Role of p38 Mitogen-activated Protein Kinase in Cathepsin K Gene Expression during Osteoclastogenesis through Association of NFATc1 and PU.1 *

TL;DR: The results suggest that the RANKL-induced cathepsin K gene expression is cooperatively regulated by the combination of the transcription factors and p38 MAP kinase in a gradual manner.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lipophilic HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor has an anti-inflammatory effect

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of four 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors (pravastatin, simvastatin and fluvastatatin) on the production and expression of inflammatory cytokines and on enzyme expression involving prostaglandin and superoxide production in cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) were examined.
