  Nicotine is the main psychoactive component of tobacco that causes addiction. Besides the regulation of the stress responses, CRF has been implicated in nicotine addiction based on several lines of evidence (Bruijnzeel and Gold, 2005, Sarnyai et al., 2001). First, acute administration of nicotine, l

  2020-08-31

  

  Recently, we have observed that pharmacological PPARα and PPARβ/δ activation regulates the expression of genes involved in FA metabolism such as FAT/CD36, CPT1, LCAD and MCAD in Sertoli cells. We have also observed that PPARβ/δ activation can simultaneously regulate the expression of the above-menti

  2020-08-31

  

  Autophagy is a degradation pathway existing in all eukaryotic organisms. It is the main system for the degradation of bulk cytoplasmic components in cells (Feng et al., 2014), but it also plays a crucial role in other processes, as immunity (Wileman, 2013), mitochondrial (Dengjel and Abeliovich, 201

  2020-08-31

  

  SIRT1 has deacetylated regulation on numerous nonhistone protein substrates [Atgs, Foxo1, Foxo3, PGC-1α, NF-kB, E2F1 and p53] (Conrad et al., 2016) to play a key role in protecting against cell stress. Therefore, the role of SIRT1 in fluorine-induced oxidative stress was explored. The results reveal

  2020-08-29

  

  Previously, we have described increased expression of both cytokine and chemokine mRNA (e.g. MCP-5 and fractalkine) in the left ventricle of male EP4-KO mice with dilated cardiomyopathy [2]. Takayama et al. [31] have shown that PGE2 potently inhibits cytokine/chemokine secretion (MCP-1, interleukin

  We had earlier reported that collagen fibers with intact native banded structure were occasionally observed in the kinase-deficient, membrane-anchored DDR2 ECD (DDR2/-KD) samples; however, in our DDR1/ECD and DDR2/ECD samples, observation of native banded structure of collagen was far more infrequen

  2020-08-28

  

  Given the structural similarity of BMAA to other amino acids, our hypothesis was that N-nitrosation of BMAA might result in a toxic alkylating agent, providing a previously unrecognised mechanism for BMAA action. Materials and methods Results and discussion We first examined whether chemical

  2020-08-28

  

  Perturbation in the cytokine network is correlated with disruption of growth hormone and glucocorticoid (GC) homeostasis (Thissen and Verniers, 1997; Sahid El-Radhi et al., 2000; Waxman and Holloway, 2009; Zhao et al., 2014), with important physiological consequences because cytokines affect the re

  Data presented herein suggest that competent IL-18BP production in epithelial scr 11 is implemented by epigenetic means based on demethylation of a single CpG site at −45 bp/−44 bp (CpG2) of the human IL18BP promoter. In contrast, retarded IL-18BP production in monocytic cells associates with CpG2

  Results Discussion This study assesses impacts of HLA-DPB1 and CMV reactivation on GVHD, relapse, and OS after allo-HSCT. Here we demonstrate that HLA-DPB1 and CMV reactivation both increase aGVHD risk independently. Consistent with reported data, we show that HLA-DPB1 mismatching is associate

  2020-08-28

  

  The classification of CK2 substrates based on active enzyme subunit composition provides a framework for understanding the regulatory function of CK2β subunit. However, few experiments exist that functionally explore such classification [17], [18], [19], [20], [21], [22], [23]; this reflects practic

  2020-08-27

  

  Evidence for interactions between the endothelin and the angiotensin system has also become plentiful. It has become clear that the two systems, in addition to acting independently, can act synergistically (Emori et al., 1989, Imai et al., 1992) as well as promote the peptide mRNA expression in endo

  2020-08-26

  

  The development of C797S mutation has been reported in vivo in a small cohort (15 subjects) of EGFR T790M positive patients progressing after Osimertinib: this tertiary mutation was found, using a droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) assay, in 40% of patients after AR to this agent, while 33% of the cases ex

  In addition, we investigated if the previously reported papain inhibitor can inhibit rhodesain, and found that it was not active at inhibiting rhodesain. The vinyl sulfone analogue of () was then synthesized and tested, and it was also inactive towards rhodesain. We then determined the time depend

  Only a few studies have examined the effect of prostanoids on cardiac fibroblasts. Therefore, this study examines the effect of PGE2 on cardiac fibroblast proliferation and tests the hypothesis that PGE2 causes cardiac fibroblast proliferation via alterations of L-693,403 maleate regulatory molecul
