  Introduction Osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent disease characterized by chronic joint degeneration, including articular cartilage loss, synovitis and osteophyte formation [1], [2], [3], [4], [5]. The cause of OA is metabolic imbalance and mechanical stress, which is coupled with inflammation, lead

  Introduction Channel activity Since initial reports of the Ca2+-activated K+ permeability of erythrocytes (see Gardos, 1958), several ‘criteria’ have been established to certify K+ fluxes as being due to the Gárdos channel. For example, the requirement for Ca2+ at the intracellular face of the c

  Conversely, we find that dysfunction in lysosomal-autophagy system observed in human APP and PSEN1 mutant neurons can be reversed by β-secretase inhibition, which reduces the supply of APP-β-CTF to the late endosome and/or lysosome (Jiang et al., 2010). These data argue that accumulation and/or alte

  There was a good alignment profile between compound 26 (IC50 0.06μM) and MTX (IC50 0.08μM) explaining its activity pattern (Fig. 5a). Fig. 5b clearly indicates a different alignment profiles where carbonyl groups are not on the same side between 25 (IC50>100.0μM) and MTX which is in consistency with

  In the PTEN loss mouse model, deletion of ATG7 gene not only caused an autophagy-deficient phenotype, but also postponed the progression of inoculated prostate tumor [22]. On the basis of these experimental facts, these ATG7 and PTEN related genes were then compared with the 3020 BCR-associated gene

  2021-09-01

  

  CIC-mediated chemoresistance is driven by several factors. In our quest to learn about these, we examined the crucial mediators identified earlier in the regulation of CSC survival and chemoresistance, such as BCL2, cleaved Caspase-3, COX-2, and macrophages. Interestingly, we observed a significantl

  Our structures also provide new insights into CRTH2 drug development. The ligand binding pocket revealed by our structures comprises many aromatic residues and a few polar residues at the distal end. Correspondingly, most CRTH2 antagonists share a similar structural feature characterized by an aceta

  More recently, evidence suggests that dysregulation of CRF signaling may also be implicated in panic disorder. For instance, polymorphisms in the CRF1, but not CRF2, gene have been associated with susceptibility to panic disorder in German and Japanese population samples (Ishitobi et al., 2012, Keck

  Making the BN-Cox model computationally efficient One of the challenges to applying the BN-Cox model is an exponential growth of the conditional probability tables (CPT) corresponding to the survival variables, as the number of risk factors increases [22]. When the number of risk factors is high,

  The COMT gene maps to chromosome 22q11.2 (Grossman et al., 1992) and has two protein isoforms. The differences between S-COMT and longer MB-COMT are in the N-termini, which use alternative translation initiation sites and promoters. These two isoforms display different affinity and capacity for COMT

  The BDNF Val66Met polymorphism is also associated with decreased dendritic arborization and impaired long-term potentiation [25]. This is particularly important for the hippocampus, and healthy individuals with a BDNF Val66Met allele have decreased hippocampal volumes [30]. Hippocampal atrophy is co

  One possible pitfall of using EPAC2 activators in the treatment of T2DM is their potential to increase glucagon levels. As discussed previously, although the ability of EPAC2 to increase glucagon expression and production is controversial, several studies show that this protein increases Gcg mRNA le
