  In this study we investigated the role 17-phenyl tinor (pt)-PGE2 on endothelial barrier function and the underlying molecular mechanism in HMVEC-Ls as well as in a murine model of LPS-induced acute pulmonary inflammation. We found that 17-pt-PGE2 concentration-dependently enhanced endothelial barrie

  2020-10-13

  

  Enhanced responses to varying concentrations of bronchoconstrictors, such as MCh, and airway obstruction are characteristic of BMS-833923 and common to other clinical states, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, lung transplantation, and infection- or chemical agent-induced airway infla

  2020-10-13

  

  DDR1 is one of two, non-integrin tyrosine kinase receptors activated by collagen. Although DDR1 has five isoforms (1a, 1b, 1c, 1d, 1e) generated by alternative splicing, only DDR1a and 1b have active kinase domains, whereas DDR2, encoded by a distinct gene, has one isoform (Vogel et al., 2006). Coll

  In this study we have explored a functional role of the oxysterol/EBI2 system in this process. In 2011 we and others reported the discovery of oxysterols as ligands for EBI2 [6], [7]. Oxysterols are metabolites generated by hydroxylation of cholesterol and have been linked to a variety of fundamenta

  2020-10-13

  

  Programmed cellular death or apoptosis is a process genetically controlled that plays an important role in cellular homeostasis, being an important defense mechanism to remove cells that have been infected, damaged or mutated (Smith and Smith, 2012, Wlodkowic et al., 2011). Nevertheless, apoptosis s

  Here we uncover a highly diverse superfamily of self-replicating MGEs, dubbed pipolins, which are present in three major bacterial phyla, as well as in mitochondria, and encode divergent PolB carrying TPR1 and TPR2 subdomains. Biochemical characterization of a representative enzyme encoded by a pipo

  Thus RhoA-mediated inhibition of DGKθ is a well-characterized pathway, conserved from C. elegans to mammalian tissues, which enables G-protein coupled receptors to regulate the extent and kinetics of DAG-mediated signaling by fine tuning DGK enzymatic activity. Acknowledgments Introduction Ce

  2020-10-13

  

  The combination of brequinar and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) has been evaluated to assess whether brequinar-induced uridine depletion would improve 5-FU activity. In cells, 5-FU is metabolized into FdUMP and inhibits thymidylate synthetase, which catalyzes the formation of thymidine monophosphate from deo

  Introduction Biocatalysis can be used to synthesize chiral building blocks, such as monomers for polymer materials, and precursors for pharmaceuticals [[1], [2], [3], [4]]. Enzymes are very suitable for catalyzing reactions with high enantioselectivity to obtain chiral products. For instance, alc

  Multiple protein species are known to naturally exist for the transmembrane receptors DDR1 and DDR2. Five splice variants have been characterized for DDR1 (“a” through “e”). The d and e isoforms lack the intracellular kinase domain of DDR1. The splicing of DDR1 to various extents has been reported i

  Materials and methods Results Discussion TP has aroused extensive explorations because of its potent anti-inflammatory, immune-suppressive and antitumor activities. Notwithstanding these, TP has yet to enter Phase II clinical trials owing to its severe toxicity (Zhou et al., 2012). TP could

  The data presented above clearly indicate an important role of eIF4E for the nucleocytoplasmic transport of the human iNOS mRNA. To analyze the sequence elements of the iNOS mRNA that are important for this eIF4E-mediated transport we performed transient transfection experiments using constructs con

  In this study, we further investigated the involvement of CRF1 and CRF2 receptors of the dPAG in the regulation of panic-related responses. For this, we used two animal models that associate escape behavior with panic attacks: the elevated T maze and the electrical stimulation of the dPAG (for a ful

  Introduction Klebsiella pneumoniae, a Gram-negative enteric bacterium, is an organism with significance in both biomedicine and biotechnology. Some of the strains of K. pneumoniae are opportunistic pathogens, which can cause suppurative infection, pneumoniae and urinary tract infection in humans (B

  Several TERRA-binding proteins have also been discovered, especially telomeric duplex DNA binding proteins TRF1 and TRF2, pointing to a significant role of TERRA in more general chromosome biology [14], [20], [21]. TRF2 is a key component of Shelterin that protect chromosome termini [22]. Telomeres
