Indicators
Appetite-regulating hormone (117 aa, ~13 kDa) is encoded by the human GHRL gene. This protein is involved in satiety, thirst and anxiety and regulating growth hormone release.
Indicators
This gene is involved in cellular growth regulation and is purported to have tumor suppression activity.
Indicators
Hexahydro-2-oxo-1H-thieno(3,4-d)imidazole-4-pentanoic acid. Growth factor present in minute amounts in every living cell. It occurs mainly bound to proteins or polypeptides and is abundant in liver, kidney, pancreas, yeast, and milk. The biotin content of cancerous tissue is higher than that of normal tissue.
Indicators
This gene plays a role in cell cycle control, regulation of transcription and the maintenance of genomic stability. It is also involved in the inhibition of mammary cell growth.
Indicators
This gene is involved in the negative regulation of cell growth.
Indicators
This gene plays a role in cell survival and the negative regulation of cell growth.
Indicators
A family of lipo-soluble steroids important to the absorption, metabolism, and function of calcium and phosphorus and the growth and development of bone and tooth enamel. Found naturally in animal tissues, cholecalciferol (vitamin D3) is formed in the skin when ultraviolet light activates cholesterol conversion into vitamin D3. Ultraviolet irradiation of ergosterol (plant vitamin D) forms ergocalciferol (vitamin D2). (NCI04)
Indicators
The most potent androgen, required for sex development. Dihydrotestosterone is synthesized from testosterone in the prostate gland, testes, hair follicles and adrenal glands by 5-alpha reductase. Dihydrotestosterone exerts its action similar to testosterone, which binds to and activates specific nuclear androgen receptors. After translocation into the nucleus, the activated hormone-receptor complex binds to the androgen response elements on the DNA and activates gene expressions that are required for sex development. Dihydrotestosterone is responsible for the formation of male primary sex characteristics and most male secondary sex characteristics during puberty, such as muscular growth, facial and body hair growth, and deepening of the voice.
Indicators
This gene is involved in the epidermal growth factor signal transduction pathway.
Indicators
Fatty acid-binding protein, heart (133 aa, ~15 kDa) is encoded by the human FABP3 gene. This protein plays a role in the intracellular transport of long-chain fatty acids and their acyl-CoA esters.
Indicators
This gene plays a role in mitogenesis and differentiation.
Indicators
This gene plays a role in mitogenesis and differentiation and mutations in the gene are associated with craniosynostotic syndromes and bone malformations.
