  2024-10-24

  

  Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress resulting from accumulation of misfolded proteins in ER lumen stimulates a chain of adaptive responses termed as the unfolded protein response (UPR). Glucose related protein (GRP78/BiP), key ER chaperone essential for the activation of the ER-transmembrane signaling

  Introduction: the DNA damage response — important implications for tumour development and treatment Cells are invariably challenged by tens of thousands of lesions inflicted on their DNA everyday (Lindhal, 1993). This DNA damage can be caused exogenously by exposure to different types of radiation

  2024-10-24

  

  The uterine muscle also changes to meet the demands of pregnancy. Over the course of pregnancy, the myometrium undergoes structural remodeling to accommodate a growing fetus, followed by a functional switch from quiescent to contractile characteristics for parturition. Studies on the mouse model ind

  Introduction According to Uganda's Ministry of Health (MOH 2012a:91), intermittent preventive treatment (IPT) to avoid malaria during pregnancy is a free preventive service available to all pregnant women without clinical signs and symptoms of malaria, attending prenatal clinics. However, pregnant

  2024-10-23

  

  Hepatic VEGFR Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor II and fibrosis are hallmarks of the NASH phenotype and are thought to occur in a subset of patients with NAFLD. While it is hypothesized that therapeutic lowering of hepatic lipids will be sufficient to improve hepatic fibrosis and inflammation secondarily,

  Another research group assessed 8503 pairs of middle-aged (mitotane receptor the twin exposed to surgery had lower scores on cognitive tests in 49% of the pairs. Twins aged 70 and older who underwent hip and knee arthroplasty scored higher on cognitive tests, even higher than those who had not under

  Some of the studies reported elevated ADA levels in schizophrenia patients (SZ) undergoing treatment with antipsychotics (Dutra et al., 2010; Brunstein et al., 2007; Ghaleiha et al., 2011). However, it is unclear whether the increased serum ADA reported in these studies was the consequence of treatm

  2024-10-23

  

  The AChR is composed of five homologous, membrane-spanning subunits. AChRs containing two α, one β, one δ and one γ subunit (AChRγ) predominate during embryonic development and mice lacking AChRγ die at birth (Takahashi et al., 2002). After birth, the AChRγs are replaced during the first 2 postnatal

  2024-10-23

  

  The human CYP17A1 gene is located on chromosome 10q24.3 (1) and spans 6.6 kb, which contain eight exons (2) and 1.6 kb of coding region. From this gene, the same 2.1-kb mRNA species is transcribed in both the adrenals and gonads (3), which yields a 57-kDa microsomal cytochrome P450c17 enzyme (CYP1

  Expression of autotaxin in cancer Autotaxin (ATX) is a member of the family of NPPs (Nucleotides pyrophosphatases phosphodiesterases (NPP) family with a unique lysophospholipase D (lysoPLD) activity, allowing the synthesis of LPA from lysophospholipid precursors such as the lysophosphatidylcholin

  2024-10-23

  

  Research perspective In vitro and in vivo studies have demonstrated that increased LPA/ATX signaling contributes to cancer initiation and progression. Recent findings on the role of non-tumoral ATX in cancer progression and metastasis highlighted a new functional contribution for the microenviron

  Having established the structural requirements for potency in both the biochemical and biomarker (CRA) assays, we evaluated key compounds in the metabolic stability assay. Disappointingly, we found that all compounds had high intrinsic clearances in mouse microsomes. To ascertain whether the in vitr

  2024-10-23

  

  Since innate immune responses represent the first defense against incoming infectious microorganisms, they are particularly engaged during the early stages of viral infections. Many innate defense mechanisms rely on the engagement of pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) which are conserved, germ lin

  Elevated expression of Aurora-A and -B frequently detected in a wide variety of human cancers strongly indicate that high expression of these kinases play roles in the development of cancer associated phenotypes. While Aurora-A has been shown to function as an oncogene when over expressed in mammali

  Crystal structure ACLY protein is a homotetramer of four identical subunits [9]. Each polypeptide chain contains 1101 amino-acid residues [10]. The crystal structure of full-length ACLY protein is yet unresolved. However, Sun et al. recently succeeded in crystallizing chymotrypsin-truncated human
