  2020-04-16

  

  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

  2020-04-16

  

  The importance of mitochondria as site of aerobic oxidation of metabolic fuels, such as FA, has been recognized for a long time. It has been observed that the number of mitochondria may vary in response to cellular metabolic requirements and hormonal environment (Gao et al., 2014). In order to susta

  In the present study, we did not examine whether the CpG site-specific COMT methylation are associated with any genetic variants in response to E2, GEN or SFN. Some studies suggest that oxidative DNA damage causes genetic variation which may induce epigenetic changes that lead to gene silencing (Kho

  WM refers to the storage of information in the context of processing, and coordination of elements into new structures (Oberauer, Süß, Wilhelm, & Wittman, 2003). Concerning the impact of WM on ISV facets, a strong negative association between WM and ex-Gaussian tau, suggesting that improved WM perfo

  Results and Discussion Conclusions Based on their common NTP pyrophosphatase activity, similar size of the catalytic domains, and the conservation of glutamate residues, it was assumed previously that the MazG and HisE families were related to MutT and other Nudix family hydrolases (see Zhang

The chondrocytes have limited ability to synthesis type II collagen protein in the matrix of mature articular cartilage once the collagen gets disrupt

  Introduction The discoidin domain receptors (DDRs), DDR1 and DDR2, are unique among the receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) in being activated by interaction with the extracellular matrix [1], [2]. Binding to triple-helical collagen is mediated by the receptor extracellular domains that include an N

  The most important finding in the present study is that the EKR1/2-Egr-1 signaling pathway might be involve in the mechanisms underlying CysLT2 receptor-mediated IL-8 production. The signaling profile can be described by the following sequential processes: the agonists (LTC4 and LTD4) activates CysL

  Natural and synthetic glucocorticoids perform their biological action in the organism through receptor-dependent mechanisms (e.g., by binding to the glucocorticoid receptors). It has been determined that glucocorticoid receptors cross-talk with other nuclear receptors, including AhR (Celander et al.

  Here, we discuss implications of several major families of RING-type E3 ubiquitin ligases (MDM, Cullin, GRAIL, TRAF, TRIM) as targets in inflammation and immunity, and provide insights into potential small molecule interventions to mediate the cellular responses (summarized in Table 1). We briefly c

  Next, we evaluated whether DPP-4 inhibitor suppressed osteoclast formation by downregulating LPS-induced RANKL expression in stromal cells; DPP-4 inhibitor did not inhibit LPS-induced RANKL expression. Furthermore, we evaluated the effect of DPP-4 on LPS-induced RANKL expression in stromal cells, bu

  As DNA methylation plays a critical role in organismic development and human diseases, the interest in DNA methyltransferases is constantly increasing. Extensive studies on the repertoires of dnmts genes have indicated increasing dnmts members in eukaryotes (Goll and Bestor, 2005; Ponger and Li, 200

  (A) An “optimized BEI-SEIscore” based on the trends, emerged from the statistical analysis of several optimization studies in pharmaceutical industry (Abad-Zapatero, 2007, Abad-Zapatero and Blasi, 2011). This type of optimized scores has been used in many previous studies. Ki=1nM at 300° K, compare

  2020-04-15

  

  The folate pathway plays an essential role in cell survival by generating 5, 10-methylene tetrahydrofolate as a one-carbon donor for the synthesis of deoxythymidine monophosphate (dTMP), purines, methionine and histidine. Disruption of this pathway leads to the critical deficiency of these key molec
