Stress is usually comprehended as an event affecting mainly the HPA axis and initiating the alarm reaction represented by activation of the adrenal medulla. This means that the levels of related hormones and neurotransmitters are significantly elevated during and after the stress. CRF, following its

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

The authors identified inhibitors of SUMOylation using two assays to monitor the conjugation of SUMO1 to RanGAP1 by E1 and E2 enzymes: a fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) primary screen that evaluated over 250,000 compounds and a chemiluminescence secondary screen. A counter screen was u

In conclusion, we have discovered two new derivatives ( and ) that are potent inhibitors of DHODH. H and C NMR spectroscopic data revealed that these compounds undergo ready isomerisation at room temperature in -DMSO, but the docking studies indicate that there is neither conformation nor configurat

Iris domestica (L.) Goldblatt & Mabb. (syn. Belamcanda chinensis L.) DC. (Iridaceae) occurs naturally in South and East Asia. Despite the fact that former monotypic genus Belamcanda has been included in the extended genus Iris, this classification has been questioned (Wilson, 2011; Mavrodiev et al.,

What would be the possible off-target effects of enhancing Ndfip1 to control T cell responses? Increasing Ndfip1 activity could limit cytokine production in macrophages, where it has been shown to function in mouse BMDMs to degrade Tak1 and downregulate NFκB signaling [108]. Whether Ndfip1 regulates
