2021-10-21
Sumoylation is involved in regulating protein-protein interactions, subcellular protein localization, protein stability, and transcriptional factor activity (reviewed in [29]). The small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) protein is covalently attached to a lysine residue in a Ψ-K-X-D/E consensus sequen

The results show that -pimarane and -strobane diterpenoids exert inhibitory effects on FXa suggesting that they may have potential as FXa inhibitor. However, it should be noted that some compounds such as compounds , , , and are poorly bioavailable. Thus, the current study indicates that the number,

Significance Cellular heterogeneity for phenotypic features is a key mechanism underlying disease progression and therapeutic resistance, yet its regulation is poorly understood at the molecular level. Our findings demonstrate that endocrine resistance is associated with higher transcriptomic het

H109, together with T112, also forms a binding site for H+ (Chen et al., 2004; Harvey et al., 1999). H+-binding at this site also inhibits GlyR-mediated currents. Notably, the vicinity of neurons experiences changes in pH, to a mild extent in physiological conditions such as when neurons fire (Chesl

Materials and methods Results Discussion Our data show that the ghrelin receptor, Ghsr, links energy homeostasis with a form of adult hippocampal plasticity. The presence of Ghsr on mature DG neurons suggest that acyl-ghrelin may modulate NSPCs indirectly, possibly via soluble factors such

2021-10-21
Role of FPRs in regulating the inflammatory response Annexin I is a glucocorticoid-regulated protein possessing both pro- and anti-inflammatory activity that might be mediated, in part, by FPR activation [35]. Expressed in a variety of cell types, annexin I is particularly abundant in neutrophils

2021-10-21
The zinc-dependent HDACs are classified into four groups based on their structure, complex formation, and expression pattern: class I (HDAC1, HDAC2, HDAC3, and HDAC8), class IIa (HDAC4, HDAC5, HDAC7, and HDAC9), class IIb (HDAC6 and HDAC10), and class IV (HDAC11) [16]. We recently reported on a cyt

Two distinct mechanisms have been described for niacin’s macrophage-based actions [21,22]. First, niacin blocks recruitment of macrophages to atherosclerotic lesions. Second, niacin upregulates macrophage ABCA1 and ABCG1, transporters involved in reverse cholesterol transport. Upregulation of choles

Several previous reports have demonstrated that epithelial cell migration is important in promoting mucosal repair after damage caused by DSS and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs [33], [34], [35]. Cell migration is coordinated by many factors, including fibronectin and its receptor integrin α5,

Introduction Non-alcoholic hepatic steatosis is characterized by the presence of steatosis in hepatocytes [1], which leads to the development of fatty liver [2]. It is strongly associated with obesity, insulin resistance, and type II diabetes [3]. They are major risk factors of non-alcoholic hepati

C16 prevents the glutamate- and erastin-induced ROS accumulation but does not affect the decrease in GSH, indicating that prevention of ROS accumulation by C16 is not due to the restoration of GSH levels. Instead, C16 itself possessed superoxide anion scavenging activity in vitro at similar concentr

FDP is considered as key intermediate in the isoprenoid biosynthetic pathway, since it is the common precursor of polyisoprene units and farnesylated proteins (Cao et al., 2012). In order to understand the role of FDP gene in rubber-producing plants it is of critical importance to ursolic acid and

Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is a non-receptor type tyrosine kinase that can further cooperatively interact with receptor tyrosine kinase signaling to regulate adhesion, migration, survival, proliferation, polarization, and differentiation [12]. Following activation, phosphorylated extracellular regu
