  Since ET-1 was discovered first and showed a wide variety of actions not only on the cardiovascular system but also on various other tissues, much information has accumulated on ET-1 compared with the two other peptides. The method for measurement of ET-1 levels in plasma or various tissues by means

  2021-02-01

  

  In some cases, more than one CYP450 enzyme may be involved in the metabolism of a drug, and an Eadie–Hofstee plot is usually more reliable for assessing the involvement of multiple Agar (Bu, 2006). Therefore, we first plotted the Eadie–Hofstee curves and observed their shape to determine the kinetic

  2021-02-01

  

  FOX proteins constitute a large class of transcription factors with multiple functions, from development and organogenesis to regulation of metabolic and immune functions. The Fox transcription factor is characterized by a 100-amino-acid wing helix or forkhead DNA-binding domain. In addition, the FO

  2021-02-01

  

  Pyruvate dehydrogenase multienzyme complex (PDHc) catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate, and subsequently acetylates coenzyme A (CoA) to acetyl-CoA during the tricarboxylic RK-33 metabolic pathway using thiamine diphosphate (ThDP) and Mg2+ as cofactors. PDHc poses a key role in cyanoba

  2021-02-01

  

  Inflammatory action of certain cytokines can influence cell proliferative routes (Deshmane et al., 2009). When mTOR is inhibited, for instance by the action of Rapa, TGF-β1, which has an anti-inflammatory action, is increased. The relationship between high levels of TGF-β1 and p97 arrest has been a

  BRCC36 is the catalytic subunit responsible for the majority of K63-Ub-specific DUB activity in the cytoplasm and in the nucleus as part of two distinct macromolecular assemblies characterized by the presence of either of the MPN– pseudo DUB proteins KIAA0157 or Abraxas (Cooper et al., 2009, Dong et

  The central role of DNA-PK in the NHEJ NHEJ can be divided in several steps (Fig. 1A): 1) recognition and binding of Ku at each ends of the DSB following by the assembly of the DNA-PK at the break points and bridging; 2) phosphorylation of the DNA ends by DNA-PKcs; 3) ligation of the ends by DNA

  Introduction Malaria remains a serious parasitic disease in tropical areas due to its high morbidity and mortality rates. It is estimated that 212 million cases occurred globally in 2015, leading to 429, 000 deaths, most of which were in children aged under 5 years in Africa [1,2]. The protozoans

  We also identified a role for the transcription factor p53 in the regulation of the Crm1 promoter. p53 can activate or repress the transcription of target genes. While activation generally occurs through binding of p53 to its consensus binding site in the promoter region of target genes, for example

Delirium is often defined as acute cognitive dysfunction that is characterized by an altered mental status

  Similarly, EGCG restored the mitochondrial energy shortfall in fibroblasts and lymphoblasts of the patients affected by Down syndrome, even so the mechanism of the effect was not clearly known (Valenti et al., 2013). EGCG also stimulated the mitochondrial biogenesis by activation of nuclear respirat

  Although MMP-9 might be a downstream target of Src kinase signaling (Liu and Sharp, 2011), a direct connection has not been established. We showed for the first time that, in the collagenase-induced ICH model, Src kinase signaling regulates MMP-9 activity and mediates EP1R toxicity. Consistent with
