  2020-06-30

  

  Many studies have documented that enolase acts as a plasminogen-binding protein and this interaction is involved in the tissue invasion and pathogenicity of the causative agents (Almeida et al., 2004; Avilan et al., 2000; Marcilla et al., 2007; Mundodi et al., 2008; Vanegas et al., 2007).

  2020-06-30

  

  Cyclosporine (NEORAL® Oral Solution, Novartis) is an immunosuppressant widely used in organ transplantation and many other clinical conditions [12]. It undergoes extensive hepatic and intestinal biotransformation mainly via the metabolizing enzyme, CYP3A4 [[12], [13], [14], [15]]. Considering the na

  2020-06-30

  

  UBA5 belongs to the non-canonical E1 enzymes that lack a defined Cys domain but have the active-site Cys within the adenylation domain [24]. Similar to other E1 enzymes, UBA5\'s adenylation domain comprises an eight-stranded beta sheet that is surrounded by helices [21]. Moreover, like the ancestral

  The focus of this review is on the diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT, EC 2.3.1.20) enzymes, DGAT1 and DGAT2, that catalyze the esterification of a fatty acyl moiety to a DAG molecule to produce TAG. These enzymes commit DAG to being stored as TAG rather than being diverted for the synthesis of ph

  2020-06-30

  

  It is now widely known that blockade of CysLT1 receptors strongly inhibits antigen-induced bronchial contractions in specimens isolated from non-asthma subjects. However, this blockade is not complete as shown in the present study and in other literature.4, 15, 16 The results of the current study su

  2020-06-30

  

  In these studies, the inflammatory cytokine IL-8 was demonstrated as one of the responsible molecules induced by CysLTs via activating CysLT2 receptors. IL-8 is synthesized in and released from mononuclear cells, macrophages, fibroblasts and airway epithelial cells, and it promotes inflammation as a

  2020-06-30

  

  In untreated rodent or human hepatocytes, PXR or CAR is stabilized by cytoplasmic co-chaperone partners like heat shock protein 90 (HSP90, Fig. 1). Upon ligand binding, the nuclear receptors are freed and translocated into the nucleus, identified as a pivotal step in PXR- or CAR-mediated transactiva

  Introduction The first reference to a possible involvement of orexins in the effects of drugs of abuse appeared in 2003 and showed that orexigenic peptide neurons respond to the chronic administration of morphine followed by abrupt withdrawal symptoms caused by opioid receptor antagonists (Georgesc

  Common features of TdT, pol μ and pol λ TdT, pol μ and pol λ remain in a closed conformation throughout their catalytic cycle, contrary to pol β [24•, 53, 54•]. One possible explanation for this observation is that they have traded fidelity (which requires open-to-closed transition) for a very ti

  2020-06-29

  

  We aim to apply the same technology to target other collagen-binding proteins using motifs from collagens that are specific for other receptors or matrix components. Previously, we synthesized THP libraries, called Toolkits, composed of an active guest sequence flanked by five GPP host triplets that

  2020-06-29

  

  The presence of H+-PPases in parasitic protists raises the question of the physiological role of these proteins. So far, they had been extensively characterized mainly in higher plants, and some prokaryotes [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [16], [20]. A common feature to all these organisms is tha

  Fatty mtor pathway β-oxidation plays a crucial role in maintaining body energy homoeostasis mainly during catabolic states. It mainly occurs in mitochondria and involves a cyclical series of reactions that result in the shortening of fatty acids. Fatty acids comprise an efficient source of energy t

  One common method to replace the wet limestone process is the use of an amine-based solution as an absorbent to capture SO2. However, almost all of the common amine-based absorbents are highly volatile compounds, whose emissions are air pollutants themselves. Therefore, it is desirable to either use

  The small intestine is the only organ responsible for the (±)-J 113397 of dietary and biliary cholesterol, leaving the unabsorbed cholesterol to be excreted in feces and together contributing to the body cholesterol homeostasis [13], [21], [33], [34]. Following intraluminal hydrolysis, free cholest
