  Prostaglandin E receptor subtype 4 (EP4) is a transmembrane G-coupled protein receptor activated by prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). EP4 activation exerts anti-inflammatory effects in adipose tissue by dampening the levels of inflammatory chemokines [12]. In the mouse, EP4 deficiency aggravates fragmentatio

  Materials and methods Results Discussion COX-2-mediated production of PGE2 is involved in cell growth and metastasis of many cancers. Previous studies indicated that COX-2 was overexpressed in many cancer tissues and that PGE2 increased cancer cell growth, a process that could be suppressed

  2021-01-21

  

  The structure of the HOIP RBR–LDD module bound to UbcH5~Ub reveals insights into an activated HOIP component [47]. Contacts between the E2~Ub and the non-cognate RBR module in the crystal suggest how a structure in which the active sites of the E2 and the E3 are in close proximity might look. In thi

  Experimental Results and discussion Conclusions In this work we presented the direct electrochemical behaviour of the Mo containing formate dehydrogenase, purified from D. desulfuricans, where the Mo centre redox features were observed. The results allowed to calculate the reduction potenti

  2021-01-20

  

  CYP3A is involved in the metabolism of approximately 50% of all drugs that are currently prescribed to patients [1], [15], [16]. Marked interindividual variabilitity of the catalytic function for metabolizing CYP3A substrates has been demonstrated with variability exceeding 20-fold [1]. Levonorgest

  2021-01-20

  

  Renal injury by cisplatin has been associated with oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis (Francescato et al., 2007, Iseri et al., 2007, Kiymaz et al., 2008, Ueki et al., 2012). Specifically, apoptosis is an important mode of cell death in cisplatin nephrotoxicity, and many studies including

  In recent years, there has been much interest within the endothelin community regarding the possibility that ETA and ETB receptors may form homo- and heterodimers. Heterodimerization of endothelin receptors may provide an explanation for the results mentioned in the previous paragraph and might also

  Recently, roflumilast has been approved as the first selective PDE4 inhibitor for the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) [2]. Roflumilast has been suggested to target several different pathogenetic mechanisms, including inflammation, fibrotic, emphysematous and vascular remode

  LVDP values of ~80% at the end of reperfusion. L-NAME treatment did not modify the contractility detected in ischemic control hearts but annulled the actions of BZ acquiring LVDP values up to 40% (Fig. 4 A). A similar pattern was observed when +dP/dtmax was analysed (Fig. 4 B). LVEDP, as an index o

  Another critical finding in this study is that the level of αSyn oligomers in the SN of σ1R−/− mice was progressively increased with age, whereas the levels of αSyn monomers and αSyn messenger RNA (data not shown) were not altered compared to WT mice. A number of studies reported that soluble αSyn m

  Stable carbon and nitrogen isotope ratios in bone collagen and carbon isotope ratios in bone apatite data were obtained by the means of the techniques described in supplementary data (SD1). For collagen, standard indicators have been used to assess its preservation, such as collagen yield, carbon an

  Allosteric inhibitors In general, candidate drugs that bind to a GPCR at a site that is distinct (allosteric site) from the binding site of the endogenous agonist (orthosteric site) are attracting increasing attention 39, 42, 58. Allosteric modulators display saturability of their effect, probe d
