  — Since these first results, Δ1-KSTD activity has been identified in many other microorganisms, albeit sometimes with different substrate preferences. For instance, Comamonas testosteroni ATCC 11996 (formerly Pseudomonas testosteroni) is active on several steroid substrates, but it cannot use 11β-h

  2020-09-29

  

  DDR2 plays a crucial role in regulating a wide variety of fundamental cellular processes, including cell proliferation, differentiation, and adhesion [17], [28], [29], [30]. The authors revealed compromised cell migration in DDR2-silenced fibroblasts exposed to Ang II, most likely due to the loss of

  Confirmation of the presence of H+-PPase genes in the genomes of the different protists tested was obtained by Southern blot analyses using the PCR-amplified DNA fragments as probes (Fig. 3). In the trypanosomatids L. major and T. cruzi and the euglenoid A. longa, a single band appeared in the filte

  Moreover, the imbalance between pro and anti-inflammatory cytokine production is present in various types of diseases. The use of substances able to induce anti-inflammatory cytokines could represent an important advance in the therapeutic treatment of a range of diseases. In this context, medicinal

  Phylogenetic analysis indicates that in poikilothermic vertebrates CXCR3a and CXCR3b have evolved independently from a common gene possibly after the 2nd round whole genome duplication but before the split of bony fish and tetrapods (Fig. 1 and Supplementary file 3). Owing to the extra round of whol

  2020-09-29

  

  Prostaglandin D (PGD) is derived from the metabolism of arachidonic ap-1 transcription factor by cyclooxygenases and downstream PGD synthases. In the immune system, PGD is mainly produced by mast cells but also although at lower levels, by macrophages and Th2 lymphocytes. PGD binds to three differ

  2020-09-29

  

  Injurious effects of cigarette smoke (CS) on human health are progressively being acknowledged both in animal and human studies. CS is a highly complex mixture that contains substantive amounts of toxic oxidants, nitric oxide, organic compounds, free radicals and microbial cell components including

  Another interesting study was that by Kotyuk et al. (2015), who investigated the association between COMT rs4680 and personality in elderly people. The authors analysed the association between COMT rs4680 and NEO-FFI. The GG GX-674 mg correlated with lower mean Neuroticism score and higher Agreeabl

  2020-09-29

  

  The serotonin transporter gene () encodes an integral membrane protein that transports serotonin from the synaptic spaces into the presynaptic neurons. The encoded protein terminates the action of serotonin and recycles it in a sodium-dependent way. This protein is a target of psychomotor stimulants

  It has long been known that native BChE is a major factor in the inactivation of cocaine, an ester-type drug of abuse [190]. But recently some researchers conceived the idea that BChE mutations could improve that function to a point that would favorably impact cocaine overdose. Rapid progress was ma

  Propranolol, initially discovered in 1964, is first and most widely studied as a non-selective beta-blocker. Propranolol through β-adrenergic receptor blockade has reduced heart rate and blood pressure and have anti-arrhythmogenic and anti-ischemic effects, and been proposed as an effective strategy

  The effect of ET-1 activity on the development of experimental pulmonary fibrosis has also been examined by other investigators. One study found that repeated administration of Bosentan, an ERA used to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), significantly decreased bleomycin-induced pulmonary f

  While we previously demonstrated that TraG is inhibited by specific transglycosylase inhibitors and that enzymatic activity is strongly reduced upon mutation of the potential catalytic core (Arends et al., 2013), the enzymatic mechanism of both domains was not assigned. Here, by mass spectrometry an
