  2020-04-16

  

  Among prostaglandins (PG), PGD2 remained the most elusive species for a long time and was initially regarded as having negligible biological activity [1]. In 1974 its inhibitory effect on platelet aggregation was discovered by Smith et al. [2] and Mills & McFarlain [3], and both pressor and depresso

  2020-04-16

  

  The small GTPase Ran regulates karyopherin–cargo interactions and the directionality of karyopherin-mediated transport. Like other Ras-family GTPases, Ran cycles between GTP- and GDP-bound states, and the two surface loops in Ran, referred to as the switch I and switch II loops, undergo significant

  RQ2: What are the different factors that influence the decision to choose among different component origins? In total eleven factors grouped into three high-level themes that influence the decision to choose a component origin were identified. The project metrics factors are: time, cost, effort and

  Experimental procedures Introduction Protein kinases represent one of the largest enzyme Phosphatase Inhibitor Cocktail 2 (100X in ddH2O) in the human genome and act as signaling mediators in a variety of cellular processes (Manning et al., 2002). Because many diseases are associated with aber

  In the present study, we combined activity-based protein profiling, biochemical and genetic approaches to identify the PLCPs involved in the sphingolipid pathway leading to plant PCD. By using Arabidopsis Illumina 384 mg and leaves, we demonstrate that this sub-class of plant proteases is activated

  Interestingly, Carver, Johnson, and Kim (2016) investigated a polymorphism in the OPRM1 μ-opioid receptor gene for its role in sensitivity to social contexts. The G allele of this polymorphism was associated with higher levels of sensitivity. The authors found significant interactions, e.g. the nega

  ET-1 expression occurs in many carcinomas, including those arising in the kidney [38], prostate [7], ovary [5] endometrium [39], melanocyte [40], and central nervous system [41], [42], among others [43]. The endothelin axis expression in RCC appears to be dependent upon the tumor subtype [38]. In se

  2020-04-16

  

  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

  The mechanisms by which coregulators control the actions of estrogen receptors are still a topic of ongoing research. From studies in cancer cells, we have learned that a large group of coregulators have specific structural motifs that than affect their contact with ER ligand-binding domains (Heery,

  Grapiprant () is a selective antagonist for prostaglandin E (PGE) receptor subtype 4 (EP4) identified as a clinical candidate for the treatment of inflammatory pain associated with osteoarthritis (OA). It is currently under development for use in humans and dogs. The projected dosing regimen of grap

  Despite robust translation of GA, only small amounts of GR and GP were translated in cultured Riboflavin and chick embryo spinal cord neural cells from the 75 copies of G4C2 in monocistronic constructs. Interestingly, GA is also the most common dipeptide found in autopsy tissue in FALS patients wit

  It is well established that Shp-2 can function as a substrate for several RTK, such as PDGF or EGFR [23], [36]. To test whether DDR1 recognizes Shp-2 as its substrate, we overexpressed a catalytically inactive Shp-2 mutant together with DDR1b in 293 cells [31]. Immunoprecipitation of Shp-2 followed

  Chagas disease Chagas disease, an NTD caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi, affects 8–10 million people globally. More than 10,000 deaths are caused by the disease each year, and nearly 70 million people are susceptible to infection (Manne-Goehler, Umeh, Montgomery, & Wirtz, 2016). Chagas di

  Introduction Sphingolipids are ubiquitous membrane components of all eukaryotic cells belonging to a group of complex lipids. The basic structure of sphingolipids is composed of a sphingoid long chain base (LCB) linked to a fatty Iberin via an amide bond to form a ceramide [1]. In animals, sphing
