  2022-02-11

  

  Xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes are classified as being phase I, phase II and transporter enzymes, with phase I enzymes metabolizing lipophyllic xenobiotics to make them more polar so that the phase II enzymes can perform the necessary conjugation reactions that afford elimination. Although the phas

  2022-02-10

  

  Renal disease is characterized by aberrant fibrotic remodeling of renal tissue, elevated apoptosis in kidney tissue, and eventual organ failure. In addition, patients with renal disease are more likely to suffer from systemic hypertension due to oxidative damage (reviewed in Ref. [18]). Treatment of

  Introduction Depressive disorder is a syndrome characterized by a group of heterogeneous symptoms that affect more than 350 million people worldwide, 4% of world population (WHO, 2012). The WHO estimates depression will be the leading global cause of disability in 2020, with tremendous economic c

  2022-02-10

  

  Importantly, lactate and H+ exert some of their biological effects independently of each other, though sometimes through redundant pathways leading to a same biological effect, as for angiogenesis. In other cases, they can have antagonist effects: lactate was shown to stimulate extracellular matrix

  Introduction Although G-protein-coupled receptor 55 (GPR55) was considered a cannabinoid receptor, it differs phylogenetically from cannabinoid type 1 (CB1) and type 2 (CB2) receptors as it lacks the classic cannabinoid-binding pocket (Baker et al., 2006). GPR55 is sensitive to an array of cannabin

  2022-02-10

  

  Here, we performed TEM and AFM imaging to study APE1–DNA interactions. The results showed that APE1 can dynamically polymerize on DNA in an apparently sequence-independent manner. We propose that this protein polymerization allows for scanning of the structural properties of DNA with short residence

  With the exception of R5.40310, none of the other residues would appear to be in a position to mediate direct agonist interactions in the active state GLP-1R structures. ECL2 within the GLP-1R is important for affinity and efficacy of both extended and processed GLP-1 peptides [24]. Though distal fr

  The optimum parameter sets were detected by the highest J-statistic for the training set and applied to the test set for evaluation. J-statistics obtained from the test set is reported at Table 2 along with respective parameters. We also applied QP, G4H and PQSF methods, in order to compare the pre

  Significance Metabolites present in the extracellular environment can potently modulate cellular phenotypes and potentially serve as therapeutics for various diseases. Ferroptosis is a non-apoptotic cell death process characterized by the generation of toxic lipid reactive oxygen species (ROS). I

  2022-02-09

  

  One of the main mechanisms enabling recycling of intracellular redox-active iron is lysosomal degradation of ferritin in the process of autophagy, often referred to as ‘ferritinophagy’ [128]. Autophagy was suggested to contribute to ferroptotic cell death by promoting the degradation of iron storage

  Expression of p75NTR has been linked to several aspects of aggressive glioma growth, including migration and invasion, by various mechanisms in a large number of elegant studies [6], [7], [26], [27]. Our study adds to this literature by demonstrating specific roles in hypoxic tumor cells and regulat

  In humans, polymorphisms in the lengths of GT sequences (from 11 to 40) within the HMOX1 promoter impact the magnitude of HO-1 expression profiles. Long GT repeats code for less stable (Z-conformational) DNA with blunted transcriptional activity resulting in lower resting and stimulated HO-1 protein

  Recently, IL-10 was also identified as an important mediator of collagen deposition in the development of HF [64,65]. It was shown, that this cytokine activates macrophages found in the hearts of mice suffering from diastolic dysfunction in the autocrine manner [64]. In response, specific subset of

  Mechanism of HH pathway activation in NSCLC Despite the role of the HH pathway in basal cell carcinoma and medulloblastoma, it has been postulated that epithelial tumors do not demonstrate cell autonomous HH ligand activity. The main evidence comes from the study by Yauch et al showing no correla
