  The COMT gene maps to chromosome 22q11.2 (Grossman et al., 1992) and has two protein isoforms. The differences between S-COMT and longer MB-COMT are in the N-termini, which use alternative translation initiation sites and promoters. These two isoforms display different affinity and capacity for COMT

  The collagen field undoubtedly regains attractiveness with the emergence of new concepts (cell niche, regulation of growth factor bioavailability, mechanotransduction, cell microenvironment sensing) and new tools to investigate their in vivo functions (atomic force microscopy (AFM), second harmonic

  2020-12-29

  

  Spinal cord injury leads to an extensive inflammatory cascade on spinal cord and the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines can sensitize neurons, activating signaling pathways that will result in thermal and mechanical hypersensitivity [39]. In this regard, Guo and collaborators (2014) demonstrated

  Considering these reports, and with the aim of further investigating the mechanism by which the cAMP-Epac/PKA pathway activates eNOS, we have performed imaging experiments evaluating the effect of drugs that increase cAMP or modify its signalling pathways (PKA or Epac activators and inhibitors) on b

  2020-12-29

  

  The UPR is composed of three different pathways that fall under the control of three respective ER transmembrane proteins: PERK, IRE1α (inositol-requiring enzyme 1α) and ATF6 (activating transcription factor 6). As a starting signal for the UPR, misfolded proteins induce the release of GRP78 from th

  Collectively, our results indicate that GSK682753A functions as a competitive antagonist and binds to the receptor in the same region as 7α,25-OHC. First, we observe linearity in the Schild plot analysis (Fig. 2B). Second, GSK682753A is highly dependent on F111 at position III:08/3.32 in TM-III (Fig

  2020-12-29

  

  How does an increase in E2 affinity for the RING domain favor higher activity and polyubiquitination by the E2? Binding of the RING domain to the E2 positions the donor Ub in the E2~Ub conjugate in a closed complex [16], [17], [18] that increases the reactivity of the thioester [60]. A higher affini

  In this report, we evaluate if this molecular mechanism is used universally by high-fidelity DNA polymerases during the replication of DNA lesions that are structurally distinct from abasic sites. This was approached by quantifying the kinetic parameters for the incorporation of modified and non-nat

  Conclusion In this study, we investigated functional alterations of ECs following exposure to mechanical and/or physicochemical stimuli. Specifically, hypoxia induced phosphorylation with significant increases after 30 min and the maximum increase was after 180 min. Our data show that a combinati

  Acknowledgments Introduction Ubiquitin ligases limit the stability and activity of substrates by targeting them for proteasomal-dependent degradation. Siah is a two-member family of ubiquitin ligases implicated in control of key cellular processes. Among those, Siah ligases control prolyl hydr

  Materials and methods Results Discussion The phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-like protein kinases, ATM, ATR, and DNA-PK, have all been implicated in H2AX phosphorylation in response to different stimuli [37], [41], [42], [43], [44], [45]. We show here that H2AX is phosphorylated in rodent and

  Chagas disease Chagas disease, an NTD caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi, affects 8–10 million people globally. More than 10,000 deaths are caused by the disease each year, and nearly 70 million people are susceptible to infection (Manne-Goehler, Umeh, Montgomery, & Wirtz, 2016). Chagas di

  Discussion The use of carp primary cell cultures proved to be a valuable approach to evaluate the piscine immune response. A. hydrophila was a more potent stimulator of NO formation by carp leukocytes compared to commercial LPS often used for leukocyte stimulation (Mustafa and Olson, 1998, Chao e
