  2022-02-12

  

  The life cycle of T. cruzi requires both vertebrate and invertebrate hosts. In the insect (invertebrate) vector, the protozoan undergoes extracellular replication, whereas in the mammalian (vertebrate) host it replicates by obligate intracellular multiplication (Rodrigues et al., 2014). Hence, the p

  The DNA cleavage activity assay in the present study also demonstrated the DNA glycosylase activities of SMUG1, NEIL1, TDG, and NTHL1 for 5OHU paired with A. While our findings on the activities of SMUG1 and NEIL1 were consistent with the results reported from previous studies [25], [50], the activi

  Membrane transporters as a novel therapeutic target in pediatric TBI The concept of targeting membrane transporters began with identifying a neuroprotective drug and a corresponding transporter inhibitor. Somewhat serendipitously, we discovered that N-acetylcysteine (NAC), a cysteine donor for GS

  2022-02-12

  

  Solid tumors usually present insufficient supply of oxygen, activating the hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) pathway, which prompts an adaptive response on genes that regulate glycolytic metabolism, promoting glucose uptake through the transcription of GLUTs [54]. Increasing evidence indicates that

  2022-02-12

  

  Despite the potential promise of both of these peptides, such compounds are still susceptible to efficient renal filtration (Emmanouel et al., 1978, Holst, 1991, Deacon et al., 1996). However, numerous studies have demonstrated that fatty NVP-AUY922 dervatisation of related regulatory peptides resu

  Interruption of glucagon signaling pathway targeting glucagon receptor (GCGR) by gene knockout, antisense oligonucleotides or specific antagonists induces α-cell hyperplasia and alleviates hyperglycemia and other metabolic symptoms in diabetic animals and patients [[7], [8], [9]]. Here we used a ful

  In the present study, five Glu3-substituted analogues of GIP, namely (Ala3)GIP, (Lys3)GIP, (Phe3)GIP, (Trp3)GIP and (Tyr3)GIP, were synthesised and tested for DPP-IV resistance and biological activity both in vitro and in vivo. The properties of these analogues were compared with native GIP and (Pr

  2022-02-12

  

  Recently, unimolecular, multi-functional peptides that combine GLP-1RA activity with AG-14361 and/or GIP activity have been suggested as new therapeutic agents for glycaemic and weight control. In rodents, dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonists achieve significantly better glucose control and weight l

  2022-02-12

  

  In a mouse model of hyperhomocysteinemia (a risk factor for the development of vascular dysfunction) it has been shown that myoendothelial communication is enhanced due to increased expression of Cx37 and IK1 Biotin-tyramide synthesis [], allowing the propagation of endothelial signals to VSMC and

  Thus, this work aims to evaluate the effect of tannic everolimus on β-galactosidase activity, by observing the variations in the molecular interaction kinetic parameters ( and ). Besides, these data were correlated with the modifications that the tannin caused to the enzyme’s secondary structure (C

  Antigen presentation of incoming viral particles has been well studied for diverse viruses in antigen-presenting cells (APCs), mostly in dendritic cells and macrophages in the context of the exogenous antigens’ pathway to prime the CD8+ T cells. However, CD4+ T cells are not known as efficient APCs,

  A number of studies have reported that lncRNA may function as sponge to interact with miRNAs at posttranscriptional level, thereby regulating miRNA targeted genes (Tang et al., 2015, Han et al., 2015). For example, lncRNA Malat1 induces autophagy by regulating ULK2 via sponging miR-26b (Li et al., 2

  NCSs are α-helical proteins containing four EF-hand motifs with EF1 being incapable of Ca-binding throughout the family (atomic-resolution structure was firstly resolved for recoverin [5]; for review on NCS structure, see [6]). Some of the NCS proteins (i.e. recoverin and KChIP3) have two while othe

  Over the last few years, experimental evidence for the involvement of Epac1 in cancer progression is beginning to emerge (Almahariq et al., 2015, Banerjee and Cheng, 2015, Parnell et al., 2015, Parnell et al., 2015, Schmidt et al., 2013). For example in melanoma cells, silencing of Epac1 attenuates
