It has also been shown that metabolites secreted by white adipose tissue (WAT) and brown adipose tissue (BAT) may play an essential role in maintaining normal body weight (regulation of body energy) and that they may participate in maintaining homeostasis, for example, through the prevention of insulin resistance [ 2, 3].
These results suggest that HAI-1 may have a critical role in maintaining normal keratinocyte morphology through regulation of PAR-2 dependent PAR-2 dependentivated protein kinase signaling.
THs are necessary for metabolism regulation and for maintaining normal cardiovascular, reproductive, and nervous system functions in humans (Samuels 2008).
It is clear that NTs play an important role in maintaining normal vascular tone, oxidative homeostasis and in the regulation of the response of both endothelial and vascular smooth muscle cells to injury [35], [37].
In contrast, many genes involved in maintaining normal heart functions such as cardiac contraction and heart rate regulation were down-regulated.
In addition to excretory activity, regulation of water and electrolytes, and maintaining normal acid-base homeostasis, the kidney has also an endocrine function.
Although the balance of autonomic nervous control has been considered a key factor in maintaining normal cardiac function, descriptions of the sensory inputs and reflex regulation of the autonomic nervous system are rare.
We conclude that the regulation of SKAP-EB interaction is important for maintaining normal microtubule growth velocity during mitosis.
Regulation of medullary blood flow (MBF) is essential in maintaining normal kidney function.
The tight regulation of the levels of miRNAs is critical for maintaining normal physiological conditions, and dysregulated miRNA levels contribute to the development of heart diseases (reviewed in [ 8– 10]).
