  Several studies have shown that, independently of body-weight control, the central actions of leptin improve glycemic control in obese diabetic rat and mouse models [62]. For instance, restoration of OB-Rb expression in OB-Rb-deficient mice, and in particular in POMC neurons, was sufficient to norm

  Interestingly, anti-inflammatory actions for sPLA2-V were also described in mice a few years ago in a model of autoimmune complex mediated arthritis [148]. A novel mechanism was delineated, whereby sPLA2-V promotes phagocytosis of immune complexes by macrophages to ameliorate inflammation in autoimm

  The 2,3-dihydroxynaphthalene-derived substrates 18a, 20a and 22a (Table 2) allowed only moderate growth of all members of the panel of microorganisms suggesting that these substrates were inhibitory to some extent. Strong growth of the Gram-negative microorganisms and moderate growth of the Gram-pos

  For immobilization of enzymes, natural polymers depict several outstanding features as support. These materials are inert, non-toxic, biodegradable and biocompatible. As well as, they can be treated with different functional groups easily by chemical reactions that occur under gentle conditions in a

  Our approach, including the characterization of histone modifications in scarce NK subsets, allowed us to identify super-enhancers, which associate with genes endowing a given cell type with its unique identity (Hnisz et al., 2013). Especially intriguing were SEs with distinct activities in NK subse

  One of the isolated interactors against Mulan259–352–Ube2E3 fusion bait was found to be the GABARAP protein, a known member of the Atg8 family that includes LC3 [20]. The Atg8 family-of-proteins are major players in autophagy/mitophagy since they are part of the autophagosome [20], [21], [22]. Our s

  2020-11-28

  

  Although the formation and toxicity of DPC is theoretically acceptable, it is difficult to evaluate the specific role of DPC and its repair enzyme MGMT in the cytotoxic and mutagenic effects because DPCs are estimated to constitute only 1%–3% of total DNA damage when 366 2 are exposed to bis-electr

  The preferences for source of FAs for DGAT1 and DGAT2 are related to their membrane topologies, subcellular locations, interactions with other proteins or organelles (discussed in the former section), and their differential expression, substrate specificities, and enzyme kinetics. According to UniPr

  Conclusion Acknowledgments Introduction Arsenic (As) is one of the most toxic metals derived from the natural environment in soil, air and well water. It has two oxidative states: a trivalent form, arsenite, and a pentavalent form, arsenate. The inorganic As is more toxic than organic As. A

  Cytochrome P450 (CYP-450) enzymes plays an essential role in pharmacology of drugs and toxicology of xenobiotics. Inhibition of these enzymes may lead to increase plasma levels of a concomitantly administered drug (Lee et al., 2013). It may prolong or reduce the pharmacological effects and increase

  For in vitro expression analysis of CXCL8 and CXCRs by stimulated leucocytes, peripheral blood leucocytes (PBLs) were isolated using Percoll density gradient centrifugation as described earlier . Cell suspensions were adjusted to 5×10/ml. Four milliliters of tissue culture medium were plated per wel

  Alvocidib (flavopiridol) is a piperidine-chromenone derivative (Fig. 6D) that is not FDA approved, but is in clinical trials for breast, endometrial, and several other cancers and hematological malignancies (Table 4) [[100], [101], [102], [103], [104]].

  This review focuses on the atomic basis of CRM1-mediated nuclear export. There are now 27 crystal structures of CRM1 in the Protein Data Bank (PDB) (www.rcsb.org) [64]. Collectively, this large body of work explains various aspects of CRM1 function. Here we summarize the structure–function studies t
