  ABCA2 is a sterol-responsive gene The first evidence to demonstrate that ABCA2 expression responded to sterol loading was provided in an experiment involving monocyte to macrophage differentiation in vitro. Upon sterol loading with enzymatically degraded LDL (eLDL), ABCA2 expression increased onl

  Material and methods Results Discussion Neurotransmitters pathways within vertebrates, including fish, are well conserved (Kreke and Dietrich, 2008, Valenti et al., 2012). Therefore psycopharmaceuticals that are design to act on these pathways in mammals, will possibly interact with the sam

  Although effects of low concentrations of agonist were not as thoroughly documented for heteromeric receptors such as the major N-(p-amylcinnamoyl) α4β2 nAChR, a similar mechanism of action was described to explain the potentiation of these receptors with low concentrations of acetylcholine-esterase

  Defining the multiple roles of autophagy in stroke has been a rapidly evolving and exciting venue for translational research, with innovative products being applied from bench to bedside. Spanning pharmacological pathway manipulation and functional experimental validation, altered autophagy activati

  2024-02-20

  

  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

  Nowadays, more than 500 kinases have been identified of human genome [2]. Imatinib (Gleevec) was the first tyrosine kinase inhibitor approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia [3], and kinases have become an attractive target for the developme

  2024-02-20

  

  Chromatin proteins play important roles in gene expression and DNA repair. The importance of chromatin composition on gene expression is exemplified by X-inactivation, where one of the two X chromosomes in female mammalian AICAR is transcriptionally silenced by heterochromatin , , , . In the ATR pa

  2024-02-20

  

  The downstream targets of ATR involved in mediating human telomerase recruitment have not yet been identified. Under stalled fork conditions, activated ATR is able to phosphorylate and activate ATM (Stiff et al., 2006, and Figures 4C and 4D); whether this BCECF-AM of ATM participates in a positive f

  MADS box proteins in plants, a flourishing family In contrast to animals, homeotic genes in plants do not code for homeodomain-containing proteins, but rather, in almost all cases, for MADS domain proteins. The sequencing of the genome of Arabidopsis thaliana revealed more than 100 putative MADS

  Plant defensins (Vriens et al., 2014) and linear AMPs (Domingues et al., 2015, Liu et al., 2008) have been shown to present several modes of action. Among these different mechanisms, permeabilization of the fungal membrane has been described as a secondary effect of plant defensin action (Vriens et

  We provide here direct evidences that AT1 receptors are active in ADSCs since Ang II induces intracellular Ca mobilization in these cells. Data obtained during the observation of Ca influxes led us to the search for the ADSCs subpopulation constantly expressing AT1 receptor. ADSCs are necessary for

  Breast Cancer: Although androgens have been considered to be a risk factor in prostate cancer they have been recommended to treat breast cancers. Even before the discovery of SERMs and aromatase inhibitors, steroidal androgens such as medroxyprogesterone and fluoxymesterone were used to treat breast

  Inhibition of autophagy has been shown to alleviate neuronal damage after cerebral ischemia, both in cell culture and rodent models (Koike et al., 2008, Li et al., 2015, Wang et al., 2016, Zhang et al., 2014, Zheng et al., 2014). Therefore, blockage of autophagy is a potential target for prevention

  α2 agonists simulate norepinephrine (NE) in binding to presynaptic surface autoreceptors, which in turn mediates feedback inhibition of NE release. Another major control mechanism for noradrenergic neurotransmission is termination of signaling by presynaptic NE transporter (NET)-mediated NE reuptake

  The importance of insulin in controlling lipolysis and fat mass is further emphasized by mouse models with alterations in the insulin signaling pathway of adipocytes. For example, mice with a tamoxifen-inducible knockout of the insulin receptor in mature adipocytes reveal a substantial decrease of a
