  Introduction The principal pathways of adrenal and gonadal steroidogenesis have been known for over 50 years (reviewed by Miller and Auchus, 2011). Cholesterol is first converted to pregnenolone via three reactions, 20-hydroxylation, 22-hydroxylation and scission of the 20,22 carbon–carbon bond,

  2024-07-16

  

  The acidification of endocytic compartments is closely related to endocytic activity, although the mechanism linking acidification and membrane dynamics is largely unknown. In a recent RNA interference (RNAi)-based screen, V-ATPase depletion blocked the formation of clathrin-coated vesicles, an effe

  2024-07-16

  

  Knowledge about adipose tissue has evolved considerably over the last two decades. Always been described as an inert tissue having the function of stocking lipids, adipose tissue is now recognized as a real organ with both metabolic and endocrine functions secreting various factors into the blood to

  The R. pycnus arginase was 65% identical to the published B. caldovelox arginase sequence (AAB06939). Furthermore, the R. pycnus arginase gene was 62%, 45%, 36% and 22% identical to the published arginase sequences from Bacillus thuringiensis (AJI37018), Thermus thermophiles (WP_038039155), Human ar

  2024-07-16

  

  Atherosclerosis is a chronic lipid metabolism disorder linked with lipid accumulation within the arterial wall and subsequent formation of foam cells and vascular disease [96], [97]. The level of apelin is decreased in human atherosclerotic coronary arteries [4], and coronary collateral formation in

  2024-07-16

  

  The finding of the apelin/APJ axis represents an impressive event in cardiovascular studies. As a result of various experimental and clinical studies conducted in vivo and in vitro, it has been indicated that apelin/APJ is a crucial mediator of cardiovascular homeostasis, which takes part in the pat

  Materials and methods Results Discussion We demonstrate reduced angiogenic activity in NDRG1 overexpressing malignant glioma leading to reduced glioma growth. This antiangiogenic phenotype is paralleled by a significant upregulation of the antiangiogenic gene TNFSF15. TNFSF15 upregulation i

  Maynard et al. [54] demonstrated that serum levels of sFlt-1 were five times higher in pregnant women with PE than in normotensive women; as a consequence, VEGF and PlGF levels were found to be proportionally reduced in these women [54]. The literature confirms that there is a sharp increase in sFlt

  Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is an irreversible, age-associated neurodegenerative disorder that is characterized by progressive memory loss and cognitive decline. AD is also the leading cause of dementia, accounting for 5 million cases in the United States and 44 million cases worldwide. In 2015, AD c

  2024-07-15

  

  At the organismal level, skeletal muscle, lung and adipose tissues mediate net de novo synthesis and release of glutamine, whereas net glutamine catabolism occurs in the kidney [7]. The liver exhibits net glutamine consumption coupled to urea production in the post-absorptive state, and net glutamin

  2024-07-15

  

  Since forskolin is known to act directly at the catalytic site of adenylate cyclases near the ATP binding (Tesmer et al., 1997), the synergistic and/or permissive effect of gonadotropins on FSK activity must occur at the level of AC itself or very near, at the level of one of its direct partner. The

  Silk, which is a mixture of mainly SF and sericin, has an extensive history in clinical application as a suture material. Unwanted immune reactions to silk sutures observed early on in their application were assigned to the presence of sericin. However, in vitro and in vivo evaluations of pure SF fi

  We have expressed the ECDs of the human α1, β1, γ and ɛ AChR subunits in the past using the methylotropic yeast Pichia pastoris as soluble glycosylated proteins [15], [16]. Further work with the γ subunit ECD revealed a marked improvement of the solubility and yield following the mutation of hydroph

  Our study, like that of Zill et al. (2012) included European Caucasians, although their population was much smaller (n=162) and more heterogeneous (19–72years). Further, potential confounding or effect modification by other health, lifestyle or genetic factors was not considered. These differences m

  Aurora-B is also known as chromosomal passenger protein and localizes at the chromosome arms and at centromeres during prophase. As cell cycle continues, Aurora-B moves towards the inner centromere region followed by the central spindle and cortex during Deferoxamine mesylate and finally accumulates
