  2020-11-25

  

  In addition to vasoconstrictor actions (acute effects), ET-1 exerts potent mitogenic actions on vascular smooth muscle cells and cardiac myocytes (chronic effects), hence causing vascular and cardiac hypertrophy [19,24,25]. These effects are mediated via stimulation of either ETA or ETB receptors, a

  2020-11-25

  

  Recent reports revealed that CSE affects the endothelial cells of various tissues like kidney, liver, heart including good intentions [26,30]. The damage of brain endothelial cells enhances the progress of cognitive dysfunction due to the accumulation of toxic free bio-radicals and activation of in

  2020-11-25

  

  There are two types of DDRs, DDR1 and DDR2, which are type I transmembrane RTKs characterized by an N-terminal extracellular discoidin domain containing a collagen binding site [8]. DDR1 expression is somewhat restricted to epithelial cells, while DDR2 is often expressed in cells of mesenchymal orig

  Nimodipine administration also inhibited the eIF2α/ATF4 singnaling which is a crucial evolutionarily conserved adaptive pathway during cellular stresses including hypoxia and ischemia (Evans et al., 2016; Manwani and McCullough, 2013). While, the eIF2a/ATF4 pathway, activated by different forms of s

  Cancer patients may develop cachexia, a deleterious wasting syndrome that is associated with muscle atrophy and has an impact on the well-being of patients and on the response to the treatment. Indeed, cachexia is a devastating and often irreversible syndrome observed in up to 80% of cancer patients

  Based on the similar activities of Rad6p and Cdc34p (i.e., both are E2 ub-conjugating enzymes) on ubiquitinylation of p33 replication protein, we propose that Rad6p and the plant Ubc2p mono- and bi-ubiquitinate the viral replication proteins in order to facilitate the recruitment of the cellular ESC

  2020-11-25

  

  Given the important regulatory roles Ub signaling pathways play in eukaryotes, bacterial pathogens and viruses have evolved elaborate mechanisms to hijack host Ub signaling pathways and evade the immune response. This is highlighted by the numerous E3 Ub ligases and spectrum of DUBs encoded by bacte

  2020-11-25

  

  The quaternary structure of many of the family B members (i.e., secretin, glucagon, glucagon-like peptide and Disulfiram receptors) have been actively studied and it has been demonstrated that they can form homodimers/oligomers (Gao et al., 2009; Ng & Chow, 2015; Ng, Lee, & Chow, 2013).

  2020-11-25

  

  Homologous recombination (HR) has important roles in the repair of stalled or collapsed DNA replication forks, as well as of DNA double-strand breaks. Among the factors required for HR in human salvinorin a are RAD51, BRCA1, and BRCA2 (Davies et al., 2001, Sung and Klein, 2006, Xia et al., 2001). B

  Because of the complexity of DNA damage and its repair, several pathways are candidates in HN2-induced DPC repair. Considering the 23kDa molecular weight of MGMT, NER may be ineffective for MGMT-adduct removal. This presumption is supported by that the mRNA level of ERCC1, a core gene in NER pathway

  Real-time PCR, as described previously with minor modifications, was used to detect DNA . The PCR mixture (Qiagen) was as follows: 5mM MgCl2, 2.5μl of 10x PCR Buffer, 0.125μl of HotStarTaq DNA Polymerase, 0.25mM of each dNTP, 0.4μM of each primer and 0.1μM of FAMlabelled probe (‘5-aacaattggagggcaagg

  Cysteinyl leukotrienes (CysLTs) are potent inflammatory mediators closely associated with cerebral ischemic injury. CysLTs induce inflammatory responses mediated by at least two different CysLT receptors (CysLT1R and CysLT2R) (Bäck et al., 2011, Singh et al., 2010). It has been reported that the Cys

  In conclusion, high methylation levels of CDKL2 were observed both in HCC cell lines and tissues, which showed a negative association with mRNA expression. Moreover, treatment with demethylation agent in HCC cell lines could upregulate CDKL2 mRNA expression. The discovery of the epigenetic modificat
