Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine data gathered to date have identified the potential utility of hBVR in modulating cell signaling and the wide range of functions that are regulated by protein kinases that include growth, differentiation, gene transcription and metabolism, regulation of glucose uptake, induction of HO-1, and cytokine and Toll-like receptor signaling are potential target candidates for hBVR-based therapeutic strategies Homo sapiens
