• In a missense mutation at codon of the PRNP gene

  2023-04-03

  

  In 1989, a missense mutation at codon 102 of the PRNP gene was first reported to be associated with GSS and, in 1991, the same mutation was also found in affected members of the “H” family (Hsiao et al., 1989; Kretzschmar et al., 1991). By 1995, the pedigree of the “H” family included 221 family mem

  2023-03-28

  

  AhR was proven to participate in carcinogenesis. Its high expression was demonstrated in a variety of tumors, i.e. pancreatic, prostate, urinary tract, lung and papillary thyroid carcinoma (Safe et al., 2013, Mian et al., 2014). However, cell line studies showed variable AhR levels/responses. AhR kn

  ABCA2 mRNA expression is elevated in Niemann-Pick type C and familial hypercholesterolemia fibroblasts Niemann-Pick Type C disease is a neurological disorder of adolescents due to autosomal-recessive mutations in either one or both Niemann-Pick-2 (NPC2) and NPC1 genes, which, like ABCA2, are loca

  2023-03-28

  

  In the past few years, several experimental findings have demonstrated a pivotal involvement of adenosine also in driving the phenotypic switch of macrophages. In particular, the stimulation of A2A and A2B receptors seems to play a critical role in switching macrophages from M1 to M2 phenotype [37,6

• An alternative to the agonist or antagonist potential

  2023-03-28

  

  An alternative to the agonist or antagonist potential in drug discovery is the positive allosteric modulator (PAM) approach, which can augment the normal processes of neurotransmission as opposed to directly replacing or antagonizing them. PAMs are thought to bind to sites that are distinct from the

  2023-03-27

  

  An AXL decoy receptor with enhanced GAS6-binding properties, MYD1, was engineered as a therapeutic tool to disrupt GAS6/AXL signaling in vivo (Kariolis et al., 2014). MYD1 was shown to block metastasis of human ovarian cancer CFDA SE Cell Tracer Kit and a murine breast cancer cell line in grafting

  2023-03-27

  

  A third motif involves the toggle switch and consists of the conserved FxxCWxP sequence in TM6 of class A GPCRs (Hofmann et al., 2009, Rosenbaum et al., 2009). Rotamerization of Trp in combination with a kink caused by Pro facilitates the outward movement of TM6 upon activation (Hofmann et al., 2009

  2023-03-27

  

  In this study, we showed that TRIM48 promotes ASK1 activation through ubiquitination-dependent degradation of a negative regulator of ASK1 activation, protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1). Knocking down TRIM48 suppressed oxidative-stress-induced cell death mediated by ASK1, and the additiona

  2023-03-27

  

  Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, which include aspirin and ibuprofen, target COX-2 activity to inhibit inflammation. It has been shown that daily use of a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs is associated with reduced ER-positive breast cancer recurrence in obese and overweight women. More pr

  2023-03-27

  

  In our approach using BRET and FRET, there is a substantial increase in BRET and FRET signals between Giα2 or Giα3-YFP and CFP- Gγ2/Rluc-Gγ2 upon apelin-13 activation, indicating that Gαi2, Gαi3 and N-terminus of Gβ1γ2 subunits become closer without subunit dissociation. In contrast, both the FRET a

  Different antioxidants were described as useful biomarkers in monitoring response to treatment in human and veterinary medicine [33,65,66]. In the same line, Thiol and TAC also proved to be useful biomarkers in monitoring the post-ovariohysterectomy period in queens with pyometra, since antioxidants

  Recent genome-wide association studies have indicated SORL1 as a risk factor for AD (Meng et al., 2007, Rogaeva et al., 2007, Wen et al., 2013). SORL1, is expressed in neurons (Yin et al., 2015) and also regulates APP traffic from the cell membrane to the Golgi apparatus. A reduction in its expressi

  The role of circulating physiologic concentrations of FGF21 in glucose metabolism, however, remains unclear. Circulating FGF21 levels in obese and diabetic rodents, and in patients with type 2 diabetes are significantly higher than those in controls without diabetes [4], [5], [6]. On the other hand,

  The synthetic adipoR agonists, AdipoRon (1) and 112254 (2), are both detectable in human plasma [18]. However, with increasing knowledge about their metabolism [19], a method for detection from human urine is conceivable and would be preferred given the easier accessibility and greater frequency of

  Our co-IP data show that 5HT1A or 5HT2A receptors do not heterodimerize with mGluR1α receptors. Given that both 5-HT and mGlu receptors are GPCRs and produce anxiolytic effects, a degree of cooperativity via a functional cross-talk may still exist between these receptors [11]. In addition to the fun
