  • While mincle expression and downstream signaling via FC receptor gamma, SYK, and NF-kappa-B are upregulated in the liver, they are downregulated in PBMCs of these rats. (frontiersin.org)
  • Expression of CYP7A1 is specific to the liver and regulated by a number of factors, including bile acids and hormones. (kent.edu)
  • Western Blotting was used to detect apolipoprotein (apo) B48 expression. (hindawi.com)
  • The overlay and integration of the genotype data with other layers of information (e.g. transcriptome and methylation data) allows us to create a high-resolution molecular map of longevity and age-related processes, which improves our understanding of gene expression and regulation in human longevity.
