  2019-10-21

  

  Our study revealed elevated basal Akt phosphorylation in diet-induced obesity, the effect of which was reversed by ETAKO. Activation of Akt promotes cardiac hypertrophy via a number of cellular mechanisms including activation of its downstream targets such as mTOR and GSK3β [45, 46]. Short-term acti

  Pursuant to our in vitro data that neutrophilic elastase activated the elastase-dependent oncolytic virus, we initially hypothesized that tumor-infiltrating neutrophils could be the source for elastase in tumor tissue. However, we did not detect neutrophils in the PANC-1 tumor tissue where we observ

  Oxysterols as Key Players in Metabolic Syndrome? Obesity and sedentary lifestyle are on the rise and pose serious threats to people\'s health and wellbeing. Obesity is often associated with other pathologies and is one of the criteria included in the definition of metabolic syndrome (MetS) (see G

  2019-10-21

  

  Intriguingly, one E2 residue may serve as a molecular ‘gate’ to allow the C-terminus of ubiquitin to access the closed E2~Ub conformations favorable for ubiquitin transfer. This residue, Asp87 in UbcH5 family members, resides on one side of the opening that leads to the active site Cys (Fig. 4D). In

  2019-10-21

  

  The kinase activity of DNA-PKcs is essential for NHEJ, but the exact role of the enzymatic activity of DNA-PKcs plays in NHEJ is not fully understood [57]. In vitro, DNA-PKcs can phosphorylate each of the canonical NHEJ factors including Ku70/80 [58], [59], XRCC4 [60], [61], Sodium ascorbate IV [62

  2019-10-21

  

  Mutation in BRCT-II domain (W893R) either in the full-length context or the C-terminal context greatly reduced the expression of LIG4 (Fig. 2B, Fig. 3B), suggesting the importance of BRCT-II domain in the maintenance of LIG4. In this regard, it might be noted that LIG4 protein was undetectable in Li

  This study evaluated the role of SERT in classical fear conditioning using a SERT knockout rat model. We found a clear disruption of cue-conditioned fear in SERT−/− rats, as measured with the fear-potentiated startle. This disruption was due to a deficit in fear acquisition and was accompanied by de

  Acknowledgments Introduction Hypertensive retinopathy is a disease of the retinal microvasculature associated with elevated blood pressure (Fraser-Bell et al., 2017). Narrowing of retinal arterioles occurs in the early stage of the disease, and with persistent hypertension further vascular pat

  2019-10-19

  

  The activity of cysteine endopeptidases involved in the germination of caryopses is generally regulated at two levels: the hormonal induction of synthesis by gibberellins (Drzymała et al., 2008) and a putative regulation of activity by phytocystatines (Kiyosaki et al., 2007, Martinez et al., 2009),

  2019-10-18

  

  Introduction As a strong analgesic, morphine is often used to treat acute and chronic pain. However, morphine is a substance with low lipid solubility that slowly enters the nerve tissue through the blood–brain barrier and produces neurotoxicity. Morphine-induced neurotoxicity can be produced aft

  The Rev1 protein is a crucial regulator of TLS activity because of its structural function [10]; therefore, we focused on Rev1 to investigate how Dot1/Rad53 function impinges on TLS-dependent mutagenic bypass of MMS-induced lesions. In particular, we examined Rev1 localization to chromatin by immuno

  Introduction DHFR is an important enzyme in both mammals and microorganism including Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). It catalyzes folic epigallocatechin gallate conversion to dihydro and tetrahydro folic acid which is a crucial step in folate pathway [1]. Inhibition of folate pathway leads to in

  The present study found a significant negative correlation between miR-152-3p and CDK8 expression in human HCC tissues. We also validated that CDK8 was a direct target of miR-152-3p, and overexpression of miR-152-3p inhibited proliferation and induced apoptosis in HCC WEHI-539 by suppressing CDK8 e
