TRPM2 ION CHANNEL REGULATES CANCER CELL SURVIVAL IN A CALCIUM-DEPENDENT MANNER
(2019-11-28)Since the late 1990s, TRPM2 ion channels have been broadly studied in various cancer types. The positive effect of TRPM2 expression on cancer cell viability has been associated with reduced cancer patient survival. However, ... -
TRPML1 in Autophagy and Neuromuscular Diseases
(2023-08-31)Autophagy is a process that maintains cellular homeostasis and monitors nutrient requirements. During autophagy, cytoplasmic components are engulfed by autophagosomes. These autophagosomes fuse with lysosomes, where lysosomal ... -

TRUNK MUSCLE ACTIVATION PATTERNS ADAPT TO DEFICITS IN INDIVIDUAL SPINAL SYSTEMS
(2019-08-27)In the early 1990’s Panjabi proposed a theoretical model suggesting one risk of low back pain is a spinal instability event theorizing a deficit to any spinal system (active, passive and neural) could represent a risk. ... -
Trust and Reliance on an Automated Target Recognition System for Underwater Mine Detection
(2020-07-22)Automated target recognition (ATR) systems are typically designed to operate using a high sensitivity and a liberal decision criterion to reduce the risk of missing a target. The high number of false alarms that occur as ... -
