  Spectroscopic techniques are powerful biophysical tools used in the study of biomolecular structures, including those of proteins. UV–Vis SLIGKV-NH2 receptor spectroscopy makes use of absorption property of the protein peptide backbone at around 218 nm, and aromatic amino acid residues primarily at

  2023-09-20

  

  Pioneering studies on the immunomodulatory role of adenosine date back to the early ‘70 s of last century (Fig. 1), when the critical role of this nucleoside in shaping the development and the activity of several immune cell populations was first established [[18], [19], [20], [21], [22]]. This then

  2023-09-20

  

  Molecular docking is widely used to predict the interaction between an enzyme and its inhibitors. This is a computational simulation approach that can be used as a tool to investigate the structure-activity relationship of ACE inhibitory peptides (Goodsell, 2009). It has been recently shown that ACE

  Cytochrome b5 Cytochrome P450 17α-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase (P450 17A1) A number of P450s involved in steroid biosynthesis are multifunctional as they carry out two or more sequential hydroxylation reactions on the same substrate(s). P450 17A1 is a dual function endoplasmic reticulum enzyme enco

  We also show that in both ATM proficient and deficient/mutant GSK 1120212 the activation of ATR signaling is DSB complexity-dependent (Figs. 1, 4A, C and E, 6A and B). Wang et al. have also reported that the effects of ATR and CHK1 on radiosensitivity are independent of the NHEJ repair pathway [41],

  In the nineties we knew that (-)baclofen was the stereo-selective ligand for the GABAB receptor which had been recognised by Norman Bowery as a receptor for GABA, which was different from the GABAA receptor (Hill and Bowery, 1981). GABAB receptor antagonists were also synthesised and made available

  There is limited information regarding hyperargininemia incidence or prevalence. Reports of incidence vary by an order of magnitude: 0.5 to 5.0 per million [5], [6]. A relatively large U.S. study estimated 1.1 cases per million births [7], but it used an indirect methodology that introduces uncertai

  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

  Materials and methods Results Discussion Recently, we showed that stimulation of TRPM3 and TRPC6 channels triggers a signaling cascade leading to the activation of AP-1 [11], [12], [13], [15]. The objective of this study was to investigate whether stimulation of TRPV1 channels leads to an a

  Using this cheese-mimicking matrix, we screened the antifungal activity of 44 LAB fermented milk-based products and 23 LAB isolates used as protective cultures against 4 fungal targets. The LAB were obtained from the culture collections of CIRM-BIA (Centre International de Ressources Microbienne-Bac

  What are the in-situ effects of multi-site CaM associations with AT1R? Kai et al. showed that synthetic peptides corresponding to residues 125–137 (rat sequence) in SMD2, 217–227 in the N-terminal side of SMD3, and 304–316 in SMD4JM inhibit to various degrees AngII-induced GTPase activity of isolate

  Further validation for a role in 12/15-LOX pathway in mediating adipocyte function comes from studies revealing a regulatory role of lipocalin-2 on 12/15-LOX activity. Lipocalin-2, a glycoprotein member of the lipocalin superfamily, is a novel abundant adipokine implicated in obesity-mediated inflam

  Since non-lipoprotein-derived free cholesterol is recycled from the plasma membrane through the endosomal system through receptor-independent mechanisms, we wanted to determine whether ABCA2 could alter the trafficking of this source of free cholesterol. Our approach was to measure the effect of mob

  Children with ADA-SCID commonly suffer from a variety of opportunistic infections, including viral, fungal, and mycobacterial infections. Due to defects in PI-103 and IG production, they are also susceptible to infection with encapsulated bacteria such as Haemophilus influenzae, Streptococcus pneum

  The mechanism by which Gas6 prevents inflammation has been reported to be via inhibition of Toll-Like receptors (TLRs) signaling (Cui et al., 2016). After injury, TLRs become stimulated, leading to downstream activation of TRAF3 and TRAF6 and translocation of several transcription factors, such as I
