  2019-08-29

  

  Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is considered a major health concern and is associated with extremely high rates of mortality in case of aortic rupture. The main pathophysiologic mechanisms leading to aortic dilation include the degradation of the extracellular matrix (ECM) components, such as colla

  Numerous studies have investigated the contribution of N-cadherin to metastasis and tumorigenesis. The overexpression of N-cadherin has been shown to enhance tumor invasion and motility in multiple cancer models [25,40,48]. Transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGFβ1) is a strong EMT inducer. In fact,

  2019-08-29

  

  The human MARCH family comprises eleven members (termed MARCH-1 to 11), of which nine are transmembrane proteins. In this review, we focus on the role of the membrane-spanning MARCH proteins and how their transmembrane regions can mediate interactions with their target proteins. Therefore, the cytos

  The relatively less well-studied encodes the E2 type SUMO-conjugating enzyme. In plants, the SCE family members play roles in abiotic stress responses. An E2 enzyme, SaSce9, from plays roles in salinity and drought stress responses (). Furthermore, SCE can respond to heat stress in rice (). However,

  DNA-PK After sensing and binding to the DSB, Ku quickly recruits DNA-PKcs to the site of the DNA break. Similar to Ku70/80, recruitment of DNA-PKcs to DSBs occurs within seconds of their creation [12]. The interaction between Ku70/80 and DNA-PKcs requires the presence of dsDNA and the complex for

  2019-08-28

  

  Mulan protein level is regulated with conditions that stimulate mitophagy such as treatment of Thalidomide with CCCP [12]. We found that exogenously expressed GFP-GABARAP and RFP-Mulan could co-precipitate and co-localize in mammalian cells and the degree of co-localization increased when the cells

  Acknowledgment This work was supported by the Estonian Science Foundation (Grant ETF8862). Introduction In higher eukaryotes ionizing-radiation (IR) induced DNA double-strand breaks (DSB) are primarily repaired by the non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) pathway [1]. Ku, a heterodimeric protein

  Given the structural similarity of BMAA to other amino acids, our hypothesis was that N-nitrosation of BMAA might result in a toxic alkylating agent, providing a previously unrecognised mechanism for BMAA action. Materials and methods Results and discussion We first examined whether chemical

  Predictions of enzyme topology for DGAT2 are more difficult since the DGAT2 polypeptide sequences are more diverse across species than those of DGAT1. The length and function of the hydrophilic N-terminus preceding the first hydrophobic segment varies with species – for example, segments in fungi ar

  Conflicts of interest Introduction Arylamine N-acetyltransferase 1 (NAT1, EC 2.3.1.5) is a cytosolic enzyme that catalyses the acetylation of small molecule arylamines, hydrazines and sulphonamides (Hein, 2002). Found in most nf-κb inhibitor in the body, NAT1 expression is regulated at the tr

  CYP3A is involved in the enzymatic 8380 and of many therapeutic agents [29]. The activity of BFCOD has been used to monitor CYP3A activity in humans [30], pigs [31], mice [32], and fish [23]. The predominant isoform expressed in the human liver is CYP3A4 [33]. In pigs, CYP3A29 contributes most to CY

  Previously, we have described increased expression of both cytokine and chemokine mRNA (e.g. MCP-5 and fractalkine) in the left ventricle of male EP4-KO mice with dilated cardiomyopathy [2]. Takayama et al. [31] have shown that PGE2 potently inhibits cytokine/chemokine secretion (MCP-1, interleukin
