  2019-10-10

  

  As expected, the 19-nortestosterone-derived progestins tested were moderate agonists of hAR (C), with EC50s ranging from 2 to 10nM, however all were less potent than the endogenous ligand DHT by at least a factor of 6, with relative potencies ranging from 0.0301 to 0.164. This is in agreement with p

  2019-10-10

  

  The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway is a highly conserved module that mediates the transduction of signals from the cell surface to the nucleus (M. Köbel et al., 2005), meanwhile, it is known to be activated by a wide array of signals ranging from growth and differentiation factors t

  2019-10-10

  

  The growth inhibitory effect of PGE2 has been linked to the ability of Gs coupled PGE2 receptors EP2 and EP4 to mediate elevation of cAMP [22], [23]. Evidence suggests that this mechanism may not be the key cause of growth inhibition [24]. In various cell types, EP4 receptor has been shown to utiliz

  In the course of our program, which was aimed at developing CRTH2 antagonists for the treatment of allergic diseases, we have been pursuing a new class of potent and selective CRTH2 antagonist lead based on the structures of CRTH2 antagonists known to date (, , ). Using a fused 6–6-membered ring sys

  Neuropsychological studies of adults with problem gambling indicate impairments in many cognitive areas including inhibition, working memory, decision-making, cognitive flexibility, and executive planning (Ledgerwood et al., 2012, Goudriaan et al., 2006). Dopamine is a neurotransmitter that regulate

  The collagen field undoubtedly regains attractiveness with the emergence of new concepts (cell niche, regulation of growth factor bioavailability, mechanotransduction, cell microenvironment sensing) and new tools to investigate their in vivo functions (atomic force microscopy (AFM), second harmonic

  2019-10-09

  

  Thus, the exact mechanisms responsible for progestogen-induced changes in immune response are not known but the effects are believed to be exerted through receptor-mediated interactions. Since the mPR α is known to be a G protein-coupled receptor in fish, downstream signaling cascades via secondary

  While oxysterols were most extensively studied for its potent ability to mediate feedback regulation of cholesterol biosynthesis, some early investigations showed that the enzymes involved in its syntheses were highly upregulated in macrophages and dendritic cells—an indication of possible roles in

  Results Discussion Previous studies have mapped ABCF1 as a risk factor gene for rheumatoid arthritis and autoimmune pancreatitis (Ota et al., 2007, Richard et al., 1998). Additionally, recent genome-wide association studies have also associated ABCF1 with the risk of gout (Dong et al., 2017) a

  2019-10-09

  

  The archaea are a group of microorganisms, and many belong to extremophiles, living in extreme environments, such as those with high temperatures [6], [7]. Methanocaldococcus jannaschii is a methane-producing archaea [8]. It grows at pressures of up to more than 200atm and at an optimum temperature

  Dgat−/− mice, however, had less adipose tissue, as reflected by lower total fat pad weights and body triglyceride content. Because of these findings, we hypothesized that, although Dgat−/− mice could make triglycerides through non-DGAT pathway(s), their triglyceride synthesis capacity might not be e

  The binding of collagen X to DDR2 differs from the binding of collagen X to α2β1 integrin in that the triple helical conformation is essential for DDR2 binding. We previously reported that heat denatured pepsinised collagen X supported cell adhesion via α2β1, indicating that the triple-helical confo

  Artificial permutations have also been exploited by protein engineering to manipulate protein scaffolds, in order to improve catalytic activity, alter substrate or ligand binding affinity, reduce proteolytic susceptibility, increase stability, generate different aggregation states and improve fluore

  It is known that cigarette smoke increases the oxidative burden in the lungs of mice with emphysema, which leads to oxidative stress [[34], [35], [36]]. However, in addition to cigarette smoke, studies have shown that endogenous oxidative stress is associated with proteolytic BI-D1870 in several mo
