Extracellular matrix biomarkers and transforming growth factor-β in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: interaction between biomarkers
Significant dysregulation of matrix metalloproteinase (MMPs), their tissue inhibitors (TIMPs) and profibrotic cytokines have been reported in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and associated with adverse cardiac remodeling. We aim to inv...

Functional characterization of a clinically significant variant of IGF1R (M1054I) - a critical residue involved in defining the binding of small molecules in the allosteric pocket of IGF1R
IGF1R, a receptor tyrosine kinase, is crucial for cell growth, proliferation, and differentiation. Overexpression of IGF1R is linked to cancer and resistance to therapies, making it a target for drug development. Previously, we identifie...
