• In cancer cells HIF upregulates

  2021-12-27

  

  In cancer cells, HIF-1α upregulates HK-II expression by binding to the hypoxia-responsive element in the HK-II promoter region to adapt to hypoxic conditions [20]. In the present study, we observed that mangiferin transiently increased HIF-1α expression in endothelial cells, suggesting another possi

  2021-12-27

  

  Suz12 is required for methyltransferase activity, silencing function, and PRC2 protein stabilization in somatic and human ESCs (Cao and Zhang, 2004, Pasini et al., 2004, Collinson et al., 2016). Our experiments indicate that, in addition to associating with the H3K27 demethylases KDM6A (UTX) (Wang e

  2021-12-27

  

  Under most circumstances, NO is a potent endogenous vasodilator. Therefore, its involvement in an endothelium-dependent contraction seems paradoxical, to say the least. Soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC) is the major downstream target of NO; its inhibition results in the lack of vasoconstrictor response

  2021-12-27

  

  Although some PAHs that are human carcinogens have been found in the sugarcane soot (Zamperlini et al., 1997), there are no data about cancer incidence among sugarcane workers. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of an evaluation of internal exposure, comparing the harvesting (whe

  2021-12-27

  

  Historically, pharmacological investigations have been carried out by first identifying a biological response to a ligand, and then subsequently using that ligand to identify the receptor(s) responsible for the response (Wilson et al., 1998). However, this approach needed revision with the discovery

  2021-12-27

  

  Continuing studies of endocannabinoid ligands at GPR55 reveal that virodhamine (O-arachidonylethanolamine) and AEA can act as a partial agonists at GPR55; at high micromolar concentrations can inhibit β-arrestin recruitment (Sharir et al., 2012). It is likely that there are allosteric as well as or

• The action of niacin in upregulating cAMP

  2021-12-27

  

  The action of niacin in upregulating cAMP is most likely determined by the milieu of adenylyl cyclase isoforms expressed in macrophages that are responsive to GPR109A activation. Several adenylyl cyclase isoforms, namely AC2, AC4 and AC7, are responsive to the stimulatory action of Gβγ G-protein sub

• GIPR genes were not found

  2021-12-27

  

  GIPR genes were not found in any of the available bird genome as well as the genomes of several species of fish (Tables S3 and S4). The genomic neighborhoods surrounding the GIPR genes in species that have them was generally conserved (see Fig. 8), and like GLP2R, those fish that did have a Gipr gen

  2021-12-27

  

  The most classic case of acquired and relapsing epilepsy is temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), which originates from the hippocampal formation, a structure situated in the mesial temporal lobe (Majores et al., 2007). Our experiment used the prominent pilocarpine-induced TLE model. Systemic administration

  Introduction Fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase; EC 3.1.3.11) catalyses the irreversible reaction of hydrolysis of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate to fructose 6-phosphate and inorganic phosphate [1]. Genetic and kinetic studies so far have demonstrated that at least two distinct isoenzymes of FBPase e

  Pharmacological G9a inhibition resulted in significant reduction of viable BTC cells in a concentration- and cell line–dependent manner. Interestingly, we found a significant correlation between BIX01294-IC50 and UNC0642-IC50 values in our BTC cell model—both inhibitors competitively inhibit H3K9 su

  2021-12-24

  

  The analytical approach for the simultaneous determination of HA and its metabolites is complex. There are commercial kits that allow the determination of HA through ELISA and of its metabolites through radioimmunoassay (RIA) techniques. However, these immunological-based techniques do not allow sim

  2021-12-24

  

  G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) constitute a large family of 7 trans-membrane-spanning proteins that activate internal signal transduction cascades through binding to different ligands including neurotransmitters, peptides, and lipids [7]. This family of receptors has therapeutic potentials in t

  Evaluating the plausibility of this selective scenario is challenging because of the uncertainties concerning the biological role of calpain-10 and the significance of its variants with regard to gene function and disease susceptibility. However, from a strictly evolutionary standpoint, our findings
