  2023-10-25

  

  In our study, caspase3 and DRAM were identified as being involved in full-length AIFM1-induced apoptosis. Caspase3 is best known for its role in the execution phase of apoptosis in both intrinsic and extrinsic apoptotic pathways [17]. The members of the caspase family are generally in inactive pro-f

  2023-10-25

  

  Plasma apelin levels predict the major cardiovascular event after percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), and adverse events are higher in patients with lower plasma apelin levels [75]. Apelin and its receptor are markedly upregulated in the he

• Enhancers are short regions of DNA

  2023-10-25

  

  Enhancers are short regions of DNA that are bound by DNA-binding proteins (TFs) to increase the likelihood of a particular gene to be expressed. Importantly, enhancers can be identified, and classified, by their patterns of chromatin accessibility and of enrichment in certain histone modifications.

  2023-10-25

  

  It has been proposed that angiotensin II (Ang II) may upregulate COX-2 expression and the subsequent vasoconstrictor prostanoids production through the activation of AT-1 receptors in vascular smooth muscle cells (Hu et al., 2002). Additionally, this peptide is also able to stimulate the generation

  Based on our findings in this work as well as the previous published data in the experimental mice model of RSV infection, we suggest that modulation of 12/15 LOX expression and/or blocking of LOX products such as 12(S)-HETE may represent potential pharmacological approaches to prevent or treat vira

  Neurological development and BCAAs Glutamate is an important excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain, and BCAAs (especially leucine) function to synthesize glutamate in astrocytes around neurons, since leucine enters the brain from the blood more rapidly than other 1,3-PBIT dihydrobromide and p

  The complex role of the human intestinal microbiota is emerging and its functions has been elucidated when considering energy metabolism, nutrient digestion, vitamin synthesis, epithelial defenses and immune responses [34]. The colon is responsible for salvage of energy and possibly nitrogen from ca

  Additionally, regulation of GPCR heteromerization by specific ligands may depend not only on the affinity of ligands for receptors, but also on presence of different interacting proteins co-localizing with the receptors in the specific cell, which may induce some conformational changes and contribut

  2023-10-25

  

  Adenosine can modulate neutrophil bactericidal functions. A dual regulatory effect has been reported for adenosine on phagocytosis. Indeed, the activation of A1 receptors augments this process, while the stimulation of A2A receptors was found to reduce the phagocytic activity of neutrophils [89]. In

  It has been recognized for decades that neurons in the mammalian central nervous system may release both a fast-acting, typically amino acid derived neurotransmitter such as glutamate or GABA, and a second peptidergic neuromodulatory molecule such as neuropeptide Y, substance P, or cholecystokinin.

  Zhang et al. screened three thousand compounds library and found two active 3,5,6-substituted indolin-2-one molecules. Further, they designed various derivatives of this scaffold and among them compound 23 from the series was found active with 1.8 μM on Aurora-B kinase luminescent assay [53]. Jeffe

  The accumulation of oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) is one of the many causes of the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis (Virmani et al., 2002; Pirillo et al., 2013; Sun et al., 2016; Huang et al., 2016; Tabas, 2010). oxLDL-induced apoptosis of macrophages contributes to the forma
