  Introduction Noncanonical nucleoside triphosphates (NTPs; such as deoxyinosine triphosphate (dITP), deoxyxanthosine triphosphate (dXTP), 8-oxo-deoxyguanosine triphosphate, and 2-oxo-deoxyadenosine triphosphate are produced from oxidation, deamination, or other modifications of canonical nucleotid

  2019-11-14

  

  Moreover, the imbalance between pro and anti-inflammatory cytokine production is present in various types of diseases. The use of substances able to induce anti-inflammatory cytokines could represent an important advance in the therapeutic treatment of a range of diseases. In this context, medicinal

  2019-11-14

  

  Determination of relative potency (EC50) by dose response assays in vitro is subject to the same sources of variability as determination of affinity, since the EC50 and Hill slope of the dose response curve are highly dependent on the binding of ligand to a competing receptor that may be present, an

  2019-11-14

  

  Ageing is associated with increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, oxidative stress and oxidative damage [43,44]. Overproduction of ROS can impair endothelial function by suppressing NO synthesis and scavenging NO thereby decreasing its overall bioavailability. Moreover, sustained oxidati

  During the past few years, several studies have addressed macrophage phenotype in experimental models, such as angiotensin II-induced AAA. A first study investigated macrophage phenotype using flow cytometry to identify M1 and M2 macrophages and qPCR analysis for expression of NOS2 and Ym1/2. The au

  2019-11-14

  

  The attachment of ubiquitin to RTKs, such as EGFR, mediates efficient delivery through the endosome-lysosome system for proteolysis. In this way, RTK degradation enables cessation of signal transduction. A recent siRNA screen identified a number of USPs that can significantly modulate EGFR levels an

  2019-11-14

  

  Ubiquitination can occur on a single (monoubiquitination) or several (multiubiquitination) lysine residues, or the same lysine residue can be subjected to several rounds of Ub conjugation (polyubiquitination). Ub bonds within polyUb chains are formed through 1 of 7 lysine residues in Ub, and the typ

  Recent results from our group found that SPMs, not only play a part in terminating inflammation, but also have a physiological role in conjunctival goblet THZ531 to maintain ocular surface health in the absence of disease. Amongst the SPMs that are effective in the conjunctiva are resolvin D1 (RvD1

  The major regulator of radiation sensitivity Tumor cell resistance to radiation is a big issue for radiation therapy, and a major concern of radiation oncologist. Understanding the regulation mechanism of radiation sensitivity is still a research hotspot. Increased sensitivity to ionizing radiati

  Primary human GBM neurospheres expressed high levels of the metabolic enzyme fatty acyl-CoA synthetase VL3 (ACSVL3) that were associated with CSCs self-renewal and tumorigenic capacity. ACSVL3 knockdown significantly decreased ALDH levels, indicating its contribution to cell metabolism and maintenan

  To better understand the mechanism of splicing in CLCN1, we began by constructing a minigene spanning exons 5–7 of CLCN1, resulting in the synthetic CLCN1 (5–7) minigene. We also established a new assay using real-time reverse transcription (RT)-PCR, which can distinguish between splicing variants b

  In S. cerevisiae, Mek1, a paralog of the checkpoint kinase Chk2, mediates cell-cycle arrest in response to meiotic defects (Bailis and Roeder, 2000, Xu et al., 1997). Mek1 is associated with meiotic chromosome axes, where its activation requires interactions with two other axis proteins, Hop1 and Re

  The nucleus accumbens is a critical locus for ER/mGluR signaling in the context of addiction ER/mGluR signaling is regulated by caveolin proteins and palmitoylation Because of the vast implications of ER/mGluR association, it is important to understand what regulates their interaction. Such regu

  Introduction Maintaining the normal function of fetal trophoblasts is essential for a successful pregnancy. Preeclampsia (PE), a pregnancy-specific disorder, is often associated with excessive trophoblast cell apoptosis and superficial trophoblast invasion leading to insufficient spiral artery re
