  Materials and methods Results Discussion Chronic inflammation is central to COPD and plays a critical role in the disease pathogenesis and progression. Among the various inflammatory cells, neutrophils are the key players in COPD pathogenesis. Their numbers are raised in airspaces and lung

  Introduction Detection of driver mutations in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is critical because they receive great benefit from kinase inhibitors [[1], [2], [3], [4]]. However, it is often difficult to obtain tumor tissue in advanced NSCLC patients. Cell-free DNA (cfDN

  EBI2 and its ligand(s) EBI2 was found in a screen of upregulated genes in human B cells upon infection with EBV [1]. EBI2 is a G-protein (Gαi type) coupled receptor [2] but as long as 18 years after its discovery the nature of its ligand remained undisclosed. With the help of transfected cell lines

  Introduction Determining how genes function together as biological systems is a defining challenge of the genomic era. While genome sequences reveal the DNA blueprint of organisms, deciphering how this blueprint leads to biological function is challenging due in large part to the complexity of prot

  We also observed reduced insulinotropic effects after intravenous administration of both GLP-1 and GIP with atropine, whereas no inhibition was observed by atropine of the direct effects of GLP-1 and GIP action on beta-cells in the islet experiments. This suggests that the reduction in circulating i

  Introduction Amphetamine (AMPH), methamphetamine (MA), and 3,4-ethylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) are widely abused psychoactive substances, with the basic chemical structure of phenylethylamine [1]. The abuse of these drugs is associated with psychostimulant, anorectic and hallucinogenic properti

  2020-11-10

  

  The presence of H+-PPases in parasitic protists raises the question of the physiological role of these proteins. So far, they had been extensively characterized mainly in higher plants, and some prokaryotes [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [16], [20]. A common feature to all these organisms is tha

  2020-11-10

  

  Proteases, as multifunctional enzymes, play key roles in controlling a wide variety of cellular and extracellular processes in plants and animals, including protein degradation and processing, germination, complement activation, inflammation, responses to environmental stimuli, senescence and so on.

  We also evaluated the influence of the number of CYP3A variant VX-509 (n=0 to 3) on the modifying effects on MDI and PDI. No clear allele dosage effect could be observed (data not shown). Discussion Prior reports for all four populations showed that an increase in prenatal Hg was not adversely a

  Conclusion The preclinical data reported in this study shows that LAS191859 is a potent and safe CRTh2 antagonist, with a long receptor residence time that provides a sustained in vivo efficacy. This property is reflected in the prolonged duration of action of LAS191859 in in vitro and in vivo fu

  2020-11-09

  

  Among prostaglandins (PG), PGD2 remained the most elusive species for a long time and was initially regarded as having negligible biological activity [1]. In 1974 its inhibitory effect on platelet aggregation was discovered by Smith et al. [2] and Mills & McFarlain [3], and both pressor and depresso

  Unlike CRM1, exportins Cse1 and Xpot lack a C-extension and instead rely primarily on changes in HEAT-repeat conformation and direct Ran-cargo contacts to ensure low cargo-binding affinity in the cytosol and cooperative assembly of the exportin/Ran/cargo complex in the nucleus (Cook et al., 2005, Co

  Beside the previously reported Topo I inhibition, time and concentration dependent CRM1 inhibitory properties of klavuzon derivatives have been shown as a second mechanism of action in this work. Especially, compounds 3 and 20 are the most effective derivatives and they completely inhibit CRM1 activ

  2020-11-09

  

  Under conditions of energy scarcity or nutritional restriction, AMPK, a critical energy sensor, is activated in response to the increased ratio of AMP to ATP. Various kinases may phosphorylate AMPK, leading to its activation. For example, AMPK phosphorylation by liver kinase B 1 (LKB1) at Thr172 res

  It is well known that the tumor suppressor p53 plays an important role in regulating the clodronate and cellular senescence [43,46,48]. For example, FOXO4 could interact with P53, which selectively induced apoptosis in senescent cells [48]. In addition, loss of MECP2 was found to lead to the inducti
