  Introduction An association of elevated branched-chain ruthenium red (BCAA—Leu, Val, Ile) with obesity and insulin resistance was first reported nearly 50 years ago (Felig et al., 1969). With the advent of metabolomics technologies, it has since become apparent that the association of BCAA and rel

  Given the recent discovery of regions of single-stranded DNA in the nuclei of hypoxic cells, the role for ATR in the response to hypoxic stress seems clearer . Zou and Elledge demonstrated that both Ddc 2 (the homolog of ATRIP) and ATRIP have a lower affinity for double-strand breaks than they do f

  Most of lipid-lowering agents have many therapeutic problems with severe side effects, while dietary fibers as lipid lowering therapy are safer. Chitosan (CS) is a dietary fiber biodegradable, biocompatible and has many health benefits including wound healing, antiinflammatory, anti-cancers, immune-

  2023-07-24

  

  Enhancers are short regions of DNA that are bound by DNA-binding proteins (TFs) to increase the likelihood of a particular gene to be expressed. Importantly, enhancers can be identified, and classified, by their patterns of chromatin accessibility and of enrichment in certain histone modifications.

  Results Discussion Control of chronic inflammation is important in several inflammatory conditions like asthma, rheumatoid arthritis and fibrosis in lung diseases. The regulatory pathways that control chronic inflammation are complex and multi-factorial. Over expression of inflammatory mediato

• The regulation of gene expression by glucocorticoids

  2023-07-24

  

  The regulation of gene expression by glucocorticoids can be mediated either by the canonical mechanism that involves the interaction of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR), a transcription factor activated by the hormone, with glucocorticoid response element (Ye et al., 2007), or by the non-canonical

  2023-07-24

  

  In glucose-stimulated pancreatic β-cells, B-Raf activity is increased, while Raf-1 activity is under the detection limit (Duan and Cobb, 2010). Thus, B-Raf is the primary protein kinase involved in the rapid activation of ERK1/2 in glucose-treated pancreatic β-cells. Expression of a dominant-negativ

  Experimental EPR spectra of probes 1a–f were recorded on a Bruker EMX-1572 operating at X-band (9.0–9.9 GHz), at 21 ± 1 °C. The EPR parameters were the same in all experiments: microwave power, 1 mW; modulation amplitude, 5 G; time constant, 10.24 ms; and conversion time, 40.96 ms. Reduced gluta

  2023-07-24

  

  Thiol are reduced by two major redox systems, glutathione/glutaredoxin (GRX) and thioredoxin (TRX), which have been extensively studied in plants [13], [14], [15]. Glutathione, a thiol-containing tripeptide, exists in a reduced (GSH) or an oxidized form (GSSG). It has a major role as a redox buffer.

  Antibiotic drug discovery approaches Traditionally, novel farnesyl diphosphate synthase were largely discovered by phenotypic screening approaches of various sources of compounds, such as natural products isolated from extracts of soil microbes and semi-synthetic or fully synthetic compound libra

  Our research group has been involved by many years in the synthesis of new 2,3-benzodiazepin-4-ones (e.g. 1, Fig. 1) and in the characterization of their mechanism of action.15, 16, 17 Within the development of these compounds, we demonstrated that an improvement of AMPAR antagonism by 2,3-benzodiaz

  The inflammatory cytokine IL-6 is an additional factor that has been hypothesized to contribute to epinephrine-mediated repression of drug detoxifying proteins such as CYP3A4 (Aninat et al., 2008). Indeed, this CYP is well-known to be repressed by IL-6 (Dickmann et al., 2011) and epinephrine has pre

  2023-07-24

  

  Norepinephrine and epinephrine are catecholamines (CA) released from synaptic nerves and the adrenal gland that mediate systemic responses to nutritional stressors (Cannon and De la Paz, 1911). CA mobilize plasma glucose by suppressing insulin secretion from the pancreatic β-cell (Katada and Ui, 198

  In the presence of detrimental conditions, such as inflammation, hypoxia, ischemia trauma or neoplastic milieu, the extracellular levels of adenosine increase massively, reaching micromolar range [51,52]. In these pathological contexts, adenosine accumulation stems from increased extracellular depho
