  The protein kinase CK2-mediated phosphorylation of HMGN1 was implicated to be involved in age-associated amnesia in rats [31]. It was shown that the decreased level of HMGN1 phosphorylation due to the down-regulation of CK2 activity could cause amnesia in aged rats, whereas the treatment with protei

  These findings suggest that eventually more than one 12/15-lipoxygenase isoform may play a role in human atherosclerosis. Humans have two 12-lipoxygenases and two 15-lipoxygenases which show different expression patterns, substrate specificities and stereo-selective metabolism [1]. However, in atp g

  Despite functional studies demonstrating the role of 5-HT in ureteral contractility, the source of endogenous 5-HT in the ureter is unclear. Since 5-HT-containing enterochromaffin cells, which are present in the gastrointestinal tract, could not be found in the ureter (Nocito et al., 2007, Ripoche,

  2023-10-23

  

  Mitochondria from frozen-thawed bull sperm are capable of producing energy using pyruvate and lactate as substrates through oxidative pathways (Beorlegui et al., 1997). Based on the present study, heparin capacitated sperm had a lesser lactate concentration in the incubation medium, supporting the h

  2023-10-21

  

  Some alterations in the integrity of cell membranes caused by toxic agents can be determined by measuring certain enzymes released by damaged cells [8]. The cholinesterases, for example, catalyze the hydrolysis of e mycin (ACh) in choline and acetic acid. Theses enzymes are divided into two types:

  Finally, one can ask whether these results throw any light on the nature of the target in SNMG patients. Interestingly, the results of the in vitro incubations suggested that SNMG sera might increase AChR expression to a small extent, raising the possibility that SNMG patients, who have thymic chang

  PF-03814735, also a dual Aurora-A and Aurora-B inhibitor, was administered in a phase I dose escalation study in a 3-weekly WZ3146 for 5 or 10 consecutive days [69], [70]. To date 25 patients have been included in 7 dose levels (5–100mg/day for 5 days). Using the 5-day schedule the MTD was defined

  Maintaining the normal vaginal fluid acidity is important for vaginal functions (Wagner and Levin 1984). Estrogen has been shown essential in maintaining the acidity of vaginal fluid, in which its deficiency could cause vaginal fluid pH to increase (Gorodeski et al. 2005). After menopause, low estro

  Introduction Melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine) is a neurohormone which is mainly secreted from the pineal gland. Melatonin is a highly conserved molecule present not only in vertebrates but also in nonvertebrates such as bacteria, protists, fungi, macroalgae, and plants (Cecon et al., 2017

  Intriguingly androgens may also have an indirect effect on AR gene expression through inhibition of the GATA2 transcription factor gene (He et al., 2014) (Table 1). Using ChIP-seq, GATA2 was found to bind to a regulatory element 5.5 kb upstream of the TSS of the AR gene and enhanced transcription, w

  Notably, we have characterized the mechanism of action of ALK in the context of our current understanding of NLRP3 activation [5]. Non-priming macrophages, including BMDMs, exhibit no or minimal activation of NLRP3 in response to ATP. In contrast, LPS priming of macrophages makes them highly suscept
