  2020-08-14

  

  Ageing is associated with increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, oxidative stress and oxidative damage [43,44]. Overproduction of ROS can impair endothelial function by suppressing NO synthesis and scavenging NO thereby decreasing its overall bioavailability. Moreover, sustained oxidati

  2020-08-14

  

  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

  2020-08-14

  

  As in our earlier observations, the PTPN22 SNP affected the appearance of β-cell autoimmunity, but in contrast to our earlier report, only a borderline effect of the PTPN22 SNP on the progression to clinical disease was observed in the current analysis [22], [27]. The finding of an effect of the PTP

  2020-08-14

  

  In the belief that DNA-based nanosensors and DNA microarrays should be easier to operate, faster, more accurate and more economically viable than PCR-based techniques, an electrochemical DNA biosensor was designed for detection of G. boninense[9], [10]. This was developed based on a gold electrode m

  2020-08-14

  

  Fragment-based drug discovery (FBDD) is a powerful method to discover drug leads and has been widely adopted in both academia and industry. FBDD can be used to explore chemical Nocodazole space with libraries which are smaller in size, producing drug leads with high ligand-binding efficiency. It

  2020-08-14

  

  In conclusion, the results obtained in this study and those recently reported by our group (Abdel-Samad et al., 2012) clearly indicate that a dialogue indeed exists between the systems of NPY and ET-1 at the level of human endocardial endothelial cells, since these cells, whether isolated from the r

  O-GlcNAc transferase OGT belongs to the metal-independent GT-B superfamily of glycosyltransferases, which has been well-reviewed previously [14,15]. OGT is an essential gene encoded on the X-chromosome, and it has two main regions: a long N-terminal tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) region and a C-t

  Clinical potential of ET receptor biased ligands Is there a clinical need for ET receptor biased ligands? Evidence is strongest from research in epithelial ovarian cancer demonstrating that ET-1 stimulated ETA-mediated β-arrestin signalling leads to activation of the oncogenic mediator NF-κB [21

  Some mechanistic experiments performed in the early 2000s by Ongusaha et al. [78], suggest that DDR1 induction protects PR-957 from apoptosis in a p53-dependent manner, and that impairment of DDR1 expression or function leads to a pronounced increase of DNA damage-induced apoptosis. This evidence s

  CYP3A is involved in the metabolism of approximately 50% of all drugs that are currently prescribed to patients [1], [15], [16]. Marked interindividual variabilitity of the catalytic function for metabolizing CYP3A substrates has been demonstrated with variability exceeding 20-fold [1]. Levonorgestr

  Several highly selective COX-2 inhibitors (coxibs) have been reported and marketed [6], including celecoxib [7] and etoricoxib [8] (Fig. 1). Even though these drugs produce less ulceration than conventional NSAIDs, coxibs still produce significant gastric and cardiovascular side effects due to the d

  Results Discussion In addition to contributing to amino sphingosine receptor and lipid biosynthesis, mitochondrial metabolism affects nucleotide biosynthesis. Indeed, many components that contribute to both pyrimidine and purine bases are derived directly or indirectly from mitochondria. Besid

  Two are the sigma receptors identified to date: the non-opioid receptor, σ1R, and σ2R, whose identity with the Progesterone Receptor Membrane Component 1 (PGRMC-1) protein is in doubt (Chu et al., 2015). Despite endogenous ligands have not been yet identified, drugs of abuse may interact with these

  Materials and methods Results Discussion In this study, we uncovered a female-specific haplotype-MDD vulnerability association, by which a two-marker haplotype TG of rs4633-rs4680 may link to enhanced MDD risk in females. Female haplotype TG carriers were estimated to have a 9.17-fold incre

  The acetylcholinesterasic activity of exposed animals, after treatment with diverse concentrations of uranium and following distinct recovery periods, remained unaltered for all species. This finding suggests that uranium, in spite of being a water-soluble metal, does not exert any effect on the sel
