  Studies also provide evidence that cytokines such as TGF-β, a TH3-type cytokine, may also play a role in airway remodeling. Data obtained by Cohen et al suggest that TGF-β1 can induce human BSMC proliferation by increasing the expression of IGFBP-3. Hence, the mitogenic action of TGF-β1 could be rel

  2019-10-16

  

  Chemokines act as ligands for the chemokine receptors, which possess 7-transmembran domain-type proteins functionally coupled to G proteins. Leukocytes express 19 chemokine receptors which control their influx and activation at the site of inflammation. Human neutrophils express both CXCR-1 and CXCR

  2019-10-16

  

  Based on the ability of CRF to modulate nociception, we hypothesized that stress leads to hyperalgesia by the activation of CRF1 and/or CRF2 receptors in the spinal cord. We tested this hypothesis using an acute forced swim as a widely used and easily reproducible stressor and grip force as a measu

  After repeated, intermittent exposure to a psychostimulant an augmentation of drug response to motor activity is commonly observed, a phenomenon known as behavioral sensitization (Kalivas and Stewart, 1991, Steketee and Kalivas, 2011). On the other hand, several reports have pointed out that stress

  2019-10-16

  

  Within the BLA, both CRF and the CRF1 receptor have been shown to functionally regulate synaptic activity. In vivo, CRF release into the BLA originates from projections from the CeA (Roozendaal, Brunson, Holloway, McGaugh, & Baram, 2002). Central administration of both CRF and CRF1 agonists has been

  The present results are potentially relevant for understanding anxiety disorders and their treatment. Both COMT Val158Met (Lonsdorf and Kalisch, 2011, Montag et al., 2012) and neuroticism/anxiety (Clark et al., 1994, Mineka et al., 1998, Weinstock and Whisman, 2006) have been linked to the prevalenc

  Curcumin is a polyphenol extracted from turmeric, which is commonly used as a spice and food-coloring agent in many cultures [9]. Curcumin possesses anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and cancer-preventive properties [10], [11], [12]. In addition to these well-known effects, consuming curcumin may bene

  Having generated synthetic cytokines and synthetic cytokine receptors, the logical next step has been to design fully synthetic cytokine/cytokine receptor systems, modifying either cytokine/cytokine receptor binding interfaces or cytokine-unrelated combinations of substances and their binding domain

  In addition, we investigated if the previously reported papain inhibitor can inhibit rhodesain, and found that it was not active at inhibiting rhodesain. The vinyl sulfone analogue of () was then synthesized and tested, and it was also inactive towards rhodesain. We then determined the time dependen

  LTD4 and LTC4 cause contraction in the rat stomach and these contractions are sensitive to CysLT1 receptor antagonists (Goldenberg and Subers, 1983, Miura et al., 1992, Miyata et al., 1995). However, effects of other leukotrienes in the gastric contraction and inhibitory effects of potent, selective

  This study demonstrates that GUL-1 affects multiple pathways/processes. As GUL-1 is likely to function as an RNA-binding protein, it is conceivable that the mRNAs involved are bound to GUL-1 as part of the regulatory function of the protein. In fact, in S. cerevisiae Ssd1 was shown to bind multiple

  Furthermore, haplotypes formed by rs6269, rs4633, rs4818, and rs4680 of the COMT gene constitute a central COMT locus haploblock that is associated with the enzymatic activity of COMT [8]. The SNPs rs6269 and rs4818, which are located in the central COMT locus haploblock, have been observed to be as

  In this study, CK1δ(ΔC) prepared from BL21(DE3)pλPP had the highest kinase activity among the three isoforms tested when using casein as a substrate. Therefore, CK1δ(ΔC) from BL21(DE3)pλPP has the potential to be a “phosphorylating reagent” that may be widely used in experiments of phosphorylation a
