  2021-04-07

  

  The BDNF Val66Met polymorphism is also associated with decreased dendritic arborization and impaired long-term potentiation [25]. This is particularly important for the hippocampus, and healthy individuals with a BDNF Val66Met allele have decreased hippocampal volumes [30]. Hippocampal atrophy is co

  In the next experiments, using a Cell Stress Array kit we assessed the effect of mixture of progestogens on the expression of 26 proteins. One group of proteins including PON3, Phospho-p38a, SIRT2, SOD2, HIF-1 alpha, HIF-2alpha and p27 were upregulated upon progestogen treatment. HIF-1 functions as

  The effect of ET-1 activity on the development of experimental pulmonary fibrosis has also been examined by other investigators. One study found that repeated administration of Bosentan, an ERA used to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), significantly decreased bleomycin-induced pulmonary f

  PTEN is an evolutionarily conserved protein and has been considered to be genetically unique without other isoforms. In this study, we identified an alternate translation initiation at a CUG site in the 5′ untranslated region (5′ UTR) of PTEN mRNA. This CUG start KT182 generates a larger form of PT

  Introduction The innate immune system stands the first line of the defense that protects the host from viral intrusion, depending on pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) and the corresponding pathways [[1], [2], [3], [4]]. The pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) of the invading viruses

  As DNA methylation plays a critical role in organismic development and human diseases, the interest in DNA methyltransferases is constantly increasing. Extensive studies on the repertoires of dnmts genes have indicated increasing dnmts members in eukaryotes (Goll and Bestor, 2005; Ponger and Li, 200

  Injurious effects of cigarette smoke (CS) on human health are progressively being acknowledged both in animal and human studies. CS is a highly complex mixture that contains substantive amounts of toxic oxidants, nitric oxide, organic compounds, free radicals and microbial cell components including

  However, recent studies revealed that the function of Crm1 might not only limit to nucleocytoplasmic transport, but also be involved in regulation of centrosome duplication. As the major microtubule organizing centers in animal cells, centrosomes play a significant role in cell cycle, spindle forma

  It is well-known that corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) exerts its biological functions through binding to type-1 (CRF1) and/or type-2 (CRF2) receptors. Several clinical evidences suggest the association of a high level of CRF and the onset of anxiety and depressive disorders.2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 Si

  Liver metabolic programming begins in utero. Aiming to find a reason for the decreased lipid catabolism enzyme expression observed in fetuses and offspring from SFD rats, we studied the effect of leptin on liver catabolism in fetuses from control and SFD rats. Livers from control fetuses responded t

  Another enzyme class that has emerged as a potential alternative to P450s are the so-called ‘unspecific peroxygenases’ (UPOs). They also contain a heme but are extracellularly expressed fungal enzymes that are often more stable than P450 monooxygenases. Importantly, UPOs use H2O2 instead of O2 as th

  Chain specific ubiquitin probes The conventional way of assessing linkage specificity is by measuring turnover rates of different diubiquitin molecules as substrates. Although this method has been applied successfully in several studies [7••, 8] it is limited to isolated DUBs, whereas linkage spe

  It was hypothesized that if modafinil acts primarily via a noradrenergic mechanism, Dbh −/− mice should be non-responsive since they completely lack NE. In contrast, if modafinil acts mainly through DA systems, these mice should be hypersensitive. Modafinil was tested in Dbh −/− mice using both loco
