• The biological actions of ET

  2021-05-11

  

  The biological actions of ET‐1 are mediated via two distinct receptor subtypes, the endothelin A and endothelin B receptors (ETA/ETB). While activation of ETA is assumed to mediate contraction of smooth muscle cells, the activity of ETB is related to transient vasodilation [22]. In human corpus cave

  2021-05-11

  

  ER stress was monitored by both an increase of the ER chaperone (GRP78, GRP94) and the activation of the ER resident caspase-12. ER stress response (also known as the unfolded protein response) is a defense mechanism against various cellular stresses which causes accumulation of unfolded proteins in

  Lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma/Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia Lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (LPL) and its subgroup Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia (WM) are rare and indolent lymphomas that arise from fully differentiated B cells. The only family of GPCRs that has been well studied in LPL/WM is the chemokin

  Recent results from our group found that SPMs, not only play a part in terminating inflammation, but also have a physiological role in conjunctival goblet lp-pla2 to maintain ocular surface health in the absence of disease. Amongst the SPMs that are effective in the conjunctiva are resolvin D1 (RvD

  2021-05-11

  

  The fact that the mean tumor size of the E1202-654 + α-GalCer group was much smaller than that of the α-GalCer inoculated group in both protocols indicates that immunization with E1202-654 plus α-GalCer, which induces a strong CD8+ T cell E1 antigen-specific immune response, is involved in the elimi

  2021-05-11

  

  GLP-1 also showed cardioprotective effects (i.e., infarct size reduction and ejection fraction improvement) in experimental models of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury by suppressing caspase-3 activation and preventing apoptosis of cardiomyocytes [[50], [51]]. Of note, such a cardioprotection w

  Results and discussion A systematic search for genes encoding H+-PPases was carried out by PCR using genomic DNA from a wide range of protozoa as templates and degenerate oligonucleotides, designed from amino 2478 receptor domains conserved in H+-PPases of higher plants and the proteobacterium R

  Most reported binding data are obtained by performing heterologous competition binding experiments and expressing the results as relative binding affinity (RBA). The constructed binding curves should theoretically be sigmoidal in shape with a Hill slope value of one, for a single ligand binding to

  Disclosure statement Acknowledgment This work was supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (81270704, 81330018). Background Over-expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is common in many malignancies including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and is associated with po

  2021-05-10

  

  Importantly, MPO is not only a marker of cardiovascular disease but also emerges as a critical mediator of vascular inflammatory disease: Liberated MPO binds to the endothelium in a leukocyte-independent manner, is subsequently taken up by the endothelium and transcytoses and accumulates in the sube

  2021-05-10

  

  To study the effect of DDR inhibition by imatinib, nilotinib and dasatinib in a cellular environment we generated DDR1 and DDR2 expressing HEK293 cell lines by stable transfection. Of the five DDR1 splice variants we focused on the 1b variant whose over-expression has been associated with pulmonary

  2021-05-10

  

  With regard to the DGATs, we have found that the majority of algal species encode at least one DGAT1, although it appears to be absent from Ostreococcus and Micromonas, as is the case for yeast, S. cerevisiae. More surprising is the presence of multiple DGAT2 genes in algae, with the exception of C

• The IV chains of mature GBM

  2021-05-10

  

  The α3/α4/α5(IV)-chains of mature GBM are built exclusively by podocytes (not by endothelial cells) (Abrahamson et al., 2009), placing the podocytes into the focus of GBM-diseases such as Alport syndrome. Alport syndrome (AS) is caused by mutations in the COL4A3, 4 or 5 genes coding for the α3/α4/α5

  DAPK-1 is involved in the p53 dependent apoptotic pathway and it is a mediator of γ-interferon induced apoptosis. DAPK-1 is also involved in other death signaling pathways (tumor necrosis factor-α, CD95 and transforming growth factor-β) and it blocks tumor metastasis in vivo. The loss of DAPK mRNA J

  Six substrate recognition sites (SRS1-SRS6) have been identified at positions 102-123, 204-209, 238-244, 301-319, 374-382 and 483-492 (Table 2, underlined residues) based on Gotoh's proposal [30].
