  Outcome of COX-2 overexpression Although a causal role for COX-2 has been proposed, mechanisms by which COX-2 function contributes to the pathogenesis of hyperplastic disease are not well defined. To examine if there is any correlation between COX-2 and p53 protein levels, Kumagai et al. [15] rec

  Acknowledgements The oxygenation level has an impact on various aspects of skin physiology, but mechanisms of these effects, including the role of hypoxia in epidermal differentiation, are still poorly understood. The main components of the hypoxia pathway are short-lived transcription factor H

  However, not all inhibitory profiles by metals can be a priori considered artifacts of the methodology used to quantify the activity of such enzymes. Metals can indeed interfere with cholinesterases, and the mechanisms are varied. The inhibitory effect of specific metals may derive from their abilit

  2020-02-12

  

  Neutrophils produce high amounts of ROS, which act as antimicrobial agents, signaling molecules or initiators during PMA-induced NET formation. Of the intravenous anesthetics used in this study, propofol was the best at decreasing PMA-induced ROS levels (Fig. 3A and B). Our previous study also demon

  In human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y p m x and in lymphoma Jurkat cells, Yamanaka et al. [56] showed that exogenously added 24(S)-hydroxycholesterol could be efficiently esterified by ACAT1. These results suggest that both ACAT1 and ACAT2 can control the oxysterol levels by directly esterifying them, in

  2020-02-11

  

  To date, little is known about mode of action or the underlying genetic basis of DEET repellency for human-biting ticks. To begin to unveil these mechanisms, we carried out behavioral assays to confirm the effectiveness of DEET as a deterrent for D. variabilis. RNA sequencing was then used to build

  Increasing evidence supports that the B-cell lymphoid malignancies develop from various stages of B-cells, hijacking the mechanisms that drive B-cell differentiation and activation [27]. For instance, mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) originate from the pre-germinal c

  Introduction Amphetamine (AMPH), methamphetamine (MA), and 3,4-ethylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) are widely abused psychoactive substances, with the basic chemical structure of phenylethylamine [1]. The abuse of these drugs is associated with psychostimulant, anorectic and hallucinogenic properti

  2020-02-11

  

  MTX and MTXPGs block the activity of the key enzyme DHFR (Fig. 1), which converts folates to their active forms – dihydrofolate (DHF) and tetrahydrofolate (THF). MTXPGs also potently inhibit thymidylate synthase (TS). Furthermore, during dTMP synthesis, TS utilizes the cofactor 5,10-methylene THF, w

  General Characteristics of the Type II Dehydrogenases Alternative NAD(P)H dehydrogenases conduct the reaction of the rotenone-insensitive oxidation of cytosolic and mitochondrial matrix NADH and/or NADPH (Fig. 1) (Melo et al., 2004, Rasmusson et al., 2004, Rasmusson et al., 2008). They catalyze t

  2020-02-11

  

  DAPK is a 160-kD Ca2+/calmodulin (CaM)-regulated Ser/Thr kinase that mediates cell death. The activated forms of DAPK and DRP-1 are capable of inducing two distinct cytoplasmic events characteristic of programmed cell death, including membrane blebbing and the formation of autophagic vesicles (Inbal

  2020-02-11

  

  Data from our in vitro studies using BEAS-2B cells showed a biphasic response of cells to NNK. The initial phase of decrease in CRM1 expression in NNK-exposed cells was observed in our previous study. In this study, we further showed that p-p53 (Thr55) expression was also decreased during this initi

  Materials and methods Results The i.v. administration of urocortin 2 reduced the mean arterial blood pressure in a dose-dependent manner (Fig. 1). The ED50 for the urocortin 2 cumulative dose–response effect on mean arterial blood pressure was 0.014±0.004 mg kg−1. Urocortin 2 administration ha

  Diseases which have been treated with proteins linked to HSA A number of therapeutic products conjugated to HSA have now been approved for clinical use (Table 2). For example, fatty H-Ser-OH derivatives of human insulin bound to HSA have applications in the treatment of diabetes while paclitaxel-

  Recently, we have created CRISPR/Cas9-mediated col14a1a knockout fish to interrogate the function of col14a1a during regeneration using the caudal fin model. Using AFM, we showed that collagen XIV-A transiently acts as a molecular spacer responsible for BM biomechanics possibly by helping laminins i
