  For the current studies, we used the selective Epac agonist 8CPT-AM to directly activate the proteins. We chose this pharmacological approach since it allows a direct activation of Epacs rather than using receptor agonists such as PGE2 which could introduce confounding variables. One potential conce

  2020-12-04

  

  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

  EP1, EP3 and EP4 receptor expression on HMVEC-L was shown recently by flow cytometry [14]. However, only EP4 mRNA expression was previously described in these cells [49]. Our data obtained with RT-PCR showed EP4 mRNA and very low levels of EP1 mRNA, but no EP2 and EP3 mRNA expression was detectable

  Conclusions Introduction The terms endocrine active and endocrine disruptive have been used to describe an ever-expanding list of naturally-occurring and synthetic compounds that interact with mammalian hormonal systems, and in particular, the reproductive system. These compounds have been ass

  2020-12-04

  

  Following DEX exposure, the levels of CYP1A1 protein and activity remained unchanged, as seen in our previous in vitro study (Burkina et al., 2013). Dasmahapatra and Lee (1993) reported that 3.9μgL−1 DEX, similar to our highest tested concentration, did not change CYP1A1 protein content. An increase

  2020-12-04

  

  The best-characterized APC/C substrates are recruited via various linear motifs (e.g., D boxes, KEN boxes, and ABBA motifs) that serve as degrons, binding to distinct regions of the β-propeller domain of a coactivator (Figure 1, Figure 3B) (reviewed in [44]). In addition, D boxes also simultaneously

  2020-12-03

  

  The lack of robust immunocompetent animal models permissive for HCV makes it hard to assess if the quantity and quality of vaccine-induced immunity is sufficient to confer protection. Thus, it is difficult to predict to what extent antibody responses induced by current vaccination approaches, includ

  2020-12-03

  

  The lack of effective strategies, aiming to directly increase the neuronal survival, is reflected by the fact that the only available therapeutic interventions are indirect. They consist of acute therapeutic interventions involving chemical and/or surgical removal of the thrombotic clot (Taqi et al.

  Regarding their reported beneficial properties on the digestive tract, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of water extracts of three Hypericum sps., HP, HA, HU and some of the main phenolic compounds (Ch, R and Q) on DNA protection against oxidative and alkylating DNA damage induced by

  It was demonstrated that the addition of 10-fold excess of α-synuclein without modifications (with respect to the molar concentration of tetrameric GAPDH) leads to partial inactivation of GAPDH after 1-h incubation by 20% (Fig. 4, curve 2) in veramyst to insignificant decrease of the specific activ

  In the PTEN loss mouse model, deletion of ATG7 gene not only caused an autophagy-deficient phenotype, but also postponed the progression of inoculated prostate tumor [22]. On the basis of these experimental facts, these ATG7 and PTEN related genes were then compared with the 3020 BCR-associated gene

  Despite its significance in tumor suppression, the molecular mechanism by which DAPK is regulated and its interplay with other tumor suppressors and oncoproteins have not been completely unraveled. Although primarily regulated by CaM binding (Cohen et al., 1997), DAPK activity can also be modulated

  Previous studies from our laboratory have demonstrated that CysLT1R mRNA and protein expression can be upregulated by T2-type cytokines (IL-13, IL-4, and IL-5) in monocytes, macrophages, and eosinophilic HL-60 cells., To our knowledge, however, there are no studies on interactions of cytokines (such
