  2023-04-14

  

  The gene SRD5A2 encodes the 5-α-reductase enzyme, which converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone. Although dihydrotestosterone levels are considerably lower than testosterone, dihydrotestosterone has a five-fold stronger binding capacity to the androgen receptor and, thereby, a considerably mo

  It involves complementary and inflammatory system proteins, mast cells, eosinophils, basophils, macrophages, natural killer (NK) cells and cytokines [1]. Innate immunity, not only include cells, but also barriers that defend the organism to the penetration of pathogenic agents [2]. Important mediat

  Our sample is representative of mRCC treated with sunitinib. However, the results from CCC setting have limited inference due to small exploratory sample (n = 51). Additionally, the significance of survival differences in CCC according to AXL staining is tangential. Unfortunately, we were unable to

  2023-04-14

  

  NOXA, a BH3-only protein, is best known as a selective inhibitor of MCL-1, which is a highly expressed pro-survival protein in many human malignancies [30]. In addition, NOXA was recently proven to act as a direct activator via directly binding to BAX to induce apoptosis [31]. Given that its levels

  Roles of Aurora kinases in directly activating multiple oncogenic pathways and promoting proliferation as well as transformation have also been demonstrated. Aurora-A has been shown to up-regulate telomerase reverse transcriptase mRNA through c-myc [26]. The kinase was also implicated in activating

  The 2.10Å resolution cocrystal structure of ACL in complex with citrate indicates that the carboxyl (COH) groups of citrate forms a network of H-bonds with hydrophilic residues surrounding the ACL citrate binding domain (CBD) (A). The - carboxyl group forms a salt bridge with the guanidine moiety of

  2023-04-14

  

  As with most G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), sustained activation of APJ can cause desensitization and this has been reported to occur for APJ-mediated effects on cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration, as well as for effects on activity of adenylyl cyclase, ERK and Akt (Ishida et al., 2004, Masri et a

  Introduction Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a complex neurological disorder characterized by a progressive dementia resulting from synapse failure (Selkoe, 2002, Tanzi, 2005). The amyloid hypothesis maintains that the pivotal event in AD is the production of amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides following the prote

  Role of AMPK in inflammation signaling Pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin (IL)-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), activate Ikβ kinase (IKKβ), which phosphorylates IκBα, triggering the degradation of proteasomal IκB. This liberates active nuclear factor kB (NF-kB) to translocate i

  AHR mediates TCDD toxicity and wasting syndrome TCDD causes numerous toxicities in laboratory animals, including teratogenesis, hepatic steatosis, thymic atrophy, immune dysfunction and a lethal wasting syndrome [17]. The dose-dependent sensitivity to TCDD-induced toxicities varies widely among l

  In our previous study, adiponectin system (genes and proteins) expression in the porcine endometrium and myometrium was observed on Days 2 to 3, 10 to 12, 14 to 16, and 17 to 19 of the estrous cycle [23]. Adiponectin receptors expression (mRNA) in the porcine endometrium was described by Lord et al.
