  2022-02-17

  

  Cortisol is a natural glucocorticoid hormone produced by the adrenal cortex. Its secretion is stimulated by the sympathetic nervous system, and its main function is to mobilize energy to protect the homeostasis of vital biochemical processes during physical and psychological stress [14]. Chronic lev

  LbGlcK crystallized as a ligandless dimer in the asymmetric unit of space group P21 (Fig. 1a) with two identical subunits stabilized by a large contact surface area of 2295 Å2 (13% of the total surface area) as determined by the Protein Interfaces, Surfaces, and Assemblies (PISA) server [18]. Each m

  2022-02-17

  

  Rare mutations can impair the molecular function of GR and alter tissue sensitivity to GCs in humans, resulting in primary generalized GC resistance (PGGR) and hypersensitivity (PGGH) [14]. Familial and sporadic PGGR, or Chrousos Syndrome, is characterized by general and partial insensitivity of tis

  2022-02-17

  

  Here, we used a designer receptors activated exclusively by designer drugs (DREADD)-based chemogenetic approach in a novel Ghsr-IRES-Cre knock-in mouse line to test whether the activity of MBH GHSR neurons is required for the normal rebound food intake following fasting. We also used the Ghsr-IRES-C

  2022-02-17

  

  Somatostatin analogues are among the first peptide-based drugs used in cancer imaging and therapy (for review see Reubi, 2003). Treatment of tumors by the use of peptide analogues labeled with cytotoxic agents acting via specific receptors is also under investigation for neuropeptide Y (Koglin and B

  2022-02-17

  

  Based on the above considerations, the β-galactosidase gene from Exiguobacterium acetylicum MF03 (not previously reported) was cloned, expressed and purified with the aim of assessing the potential of this novel enzyme for catalyzing reactions of synthesis and hydrolysis of glycosides. Because of E.

  2022-02-16

  

  uPAR promotes cell-associated proteolysis by binding to uPA which locally converts plasminogen into active plasmin [10]. Ligand-engaged uPAR also acts as a potent regulator of cell migration and matrix attachment. Being a membrane receptor, uPAR needs to interact with extracellular matrix (ECM) prot

  2022-02-16

  

  LSD1 also contributes to the regulation of specific programs of gene expression in postmitotic, fate-committed neurons. Perhaps its most specialized role is in the complex series of epigenetic regulatory events that permit each olfactory sensory neuron to express one and only one of the thousands of

  At baseline, Hdc-KO mice have alterations in the examined signaling cascades that resemble those seen in WT mice after RAMH challenge. Specifically, BCTC mg of MSK1 at T581 and of rpS6 ad S235/236 are elevated in dMSNs to a similar extent after saline in KO mice and after RAMH challenge in WT sibli

  2022-02-16

  

  Hippo signaling is unique in that it does not possess a cognate ligand and receptor system. Instead, numerous upstream sensors that monitor cell morphology, cell polarity, cell-cell contact, and mechanical stress impinge onto the Hippo pathway core kinases, MST, and LATS. This in turn indicates the

  Recently, IL-10 was also identified as an important mediator of collagen deposition in the development of HF [64,65]. It was shown, that this cytokine activates macrophages found in the hearts of mice suffering from diastolic dysfunction in the autocrine manner [64]. In response, specific subset of

  Introduction Epigenetic mechanisms modulate heritable phenotypic changes that are not dictated by changes in DNA sequences. The link between epigenetic modifications and cancer development has been established [1], [2]. Histone modifications represent an important class of epigenetic mechanisms tha

  We found few differential effects on lung function for exposure to mother’s and father’s smoking in relation to GSTM1 and GSTT1. However, effects related to mother’s or father’s smoking may differ because mothers tend to spend greater amounts of time with young children and mothers may also smoke du
