  2020-01-14

  

  The COMT gene is involved in numerous psychological and physiologic processes, including modulation of pain. Polymorphisms in this gene have also been associated with many painful conditions, including pain sensitivity in children. Bivariate analysis demonstrated that individuals with heterozygous C

  2020-01-14

  

  EPAC activation in VSMCs and ECs reverses several processes involved in the development of in-stent restenosis. Of particular relevance is the ability of EPAC1 to induce SOCS3 gene expression, as SOCS3 exerts multiple protective effects in both cell types, while immunohistochemical studies have show

  Results Discussion The origin and fate of Tfh cells has been intensely studied since their first description 14 years ago (Breitfeld et al., 2000, Schaerli et al., 2000). Although mice engineered to report BCL6 (Kitano et al., 2011, Liu et al., 2012) and interleukin-21 (IL-21) (Lüthje et al.,

  In conclusion, DDR1 ECD was shown to be sufficient for collagen mediated DDR1 oligomerization, and the oligomerized form binds to collagen with increased affinity. In full length receptors expressed on live cells, DDR1 oligomerization occurred on the cell surface in agreement with the role of DDR1 E

  Presumably, LBPs have health-promoting activities, such as antioxidant, immune regulation, anti-stress, anticancer, neuroprotective and antidiabetic activities [[7], [8], [9], [10], [11]]; LBPs can improve the whole-body health status of mice and stimulate the expressions of IL-2, IL-12 and TNF-α, w

  Results Discussion The nitric oxide-cyclic guanosine monophosphate pathway plays an important role in normal EF, and oral PDE-5Is were developed in the late 90s after the discovery that ED occurs when there is a problem with this pathway. Since then, several PDF-5Is with different pharmacokin

  2020-01-13

  

  Introduction Angiotensin II (Ang II) and Endothelin 1 (ET-1) are potent vasoconstrictive peptides recognized as key players in many cardiovascular diseases [1]. Cardiac hypertrophy, ischemic arrhythmia, and stroke have been associated to an overstimulation of the angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) recepto

  2020-01-13

  

  Enzyme mimics belong to a type of rising catalysts which show the similar function with their corresponding natural enzymes [20], [21], [22], [23], [24], [25], [26], [27], although their structures are different from natural enzymes. In the area of prodrug activation, the widely-used enzyme mimics a

  Importantly, we observed significantly the reduced myocardial infarct size, the improved left ventricular function and the inhibited fibrosis after I/R with oral GA-BH4 supplementation before ischemia (Fig. 1, Fig. 2, Fig. 3). Usually, there is a view that the antioxidation induced by reducing agent

  2020-01-13

  

  In mammals, neutrophil elastase is a trypsin-like serine protease stored in the azurophilic granules of naïve neutrophils [15], [16]. The catalytic activity of neutrophil elastase relies on a His57–Asp102–Ser195 triad (chymotrypsin numbering system) that functions by transfer of electrons from the c

  Introduction CYP450 is a superfamily of heme-containing monooxygenases, many of which are expressed in the liver, and they are significant phase-I colorimetric in drug metabolism and detoxification. There are three subfamilies (CYP1, CYP2 and CYP3) that are mainly involved in the metabolism of dru

  Gene npy receptor profiling with corresponding clinical data supported the notion that increased expression of S1PR1 in DLBCL was associated with poor outcome [159], [160], [161]. These studies also identified increased expression of the GPCRs GPR183, CCR7, ADRB2 and CNR2 as risk factors for poor o

  Electron transfer pathway Intramolecular (or inter-domain) electron transfer (IET) in CDH has been studied in much depth [], and similar IET occurs in CcPDH, from the PQQ cofactor in the AA12 domain to the heme b in the AA8 domain. When two kinds of electron acceptors are used for measuring enzym

  Autophagy alterations are frequently reported as one of the pathological mechanisms contributing to neurodegenerative diseases, due to incomplete removal of protein bapta am in the brain [30,41]. It was over a decade ago when mutations in PARK8 encoding for the LRRK2 protein were described as a main
