  Apelin is involved in various physiological functions, including Tetraethylammonium chloride contraction (Ashley et al., 2005), vasodilatation (Jia et al., 2007), feeding control (Valle et al., 2008), and metabolic homeostasis (Higuchi et al., 2007, Dray et al., 2008, Attane et al., 2010). Its plasm

  2023-05-15

  

  TLRs play a key role in pathogen recognition and early response. In our study, we showed an increase of TLR2 mRNA and protein expression after BMECs were stimulated by S. aureus, as seen for BMECs in a previous study [25]. Although most studies describe TLR4 as a primary receptor for Gram-negative b

  Materials and methods Results Discussion Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is the most common cause of end-stage renal disease [15], [16]. The pathogenesis of DKD is not fully understood, and there is no effective treatment. Although previous studies suggested that early lesions of DKD are foun

  AR-mediated actions in Oligomycin A of the vascular wall Sex hormones may influence the size and composition of atherosclerotic lesions indirectly by modifying systemic cardiovascular risk factors such as plasma lipids profiles and insulin sensitivity; this aspect of their action is discussed el

  RNA interference assays have shown that the inhibition of AMPK expression leads to increases in TNF-α, IL-6 and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) levels after LPS stimulus, whereas the transfection of macrophages with a constitutively active form of AMPKα1 results in decreased LPS-induced TNF-α and IL-6 prod

  Dose–Response Studies Against Puromycin–Sensitive Aminopeptidase (PSA). PSA is a ubiquitous metallopeptidase encoded by the NPEPPS gene with subcellular distribution in the cytosol and nucleus [49]. Comprising of a 919 amino 3-Chlorotyrosine sequence, it has a broad substrate specificity, and is re

  Epidermal growth factor (EGF) has been shown to increase the 12S-lipoxygenase mRNA level by about two-fold in human epidermoid carcinoma A431 cells [71]. This enzyme was shown to be of the platelet-type and associated with the microsomal fraction of the cells [71], [72]. A requirement for EGF recept

  Cancer stem cells (CSCs) may have been first identified in teratocarcinomas [11], [12], with its initial clues date back to the 19th century [13]. Kleinsmith and Pierce [12] established the immortal pluripotent teratocarcinoma lines from a single transplanted multi-potent malignant cell, strongly su

  The Cebu Longitudinal Health and Nutrition Survey (CLHNS) genome-wide association study investigated the genetic loci associated with plasma adiponectin in 1776 unrelated Filipino women. Adiponectin was strongly associated with three genetic positions: the gene CDH13 (rs3865188, P ≤ 7.2 × 10−16), ne

  Our in vitro data show that CyaA does not play a critical role in the bacterial adherence to mammalian cells. This observation is in contrast to previous studies that reported a role for CyaA in FHA-mediated adherence of B. pertussis bacteria to the respiratory epithelial Demethoxycurcumin synthesis

  Because the V-ATPase inhibitors that have been employed in these studies (including bafilomycin and concanamycin), are membrane permeant, they inhibit all the V-ATPases in the cell. This is important since it is possible that intracellular V-ATPases, in addition to those present at the plasma membra

  It was previously demonstrated that dissociation of the V-ATPase in response to glucose depletion in yeast requires an intact microtubular network [28] and a catalytically active enzyme [29]. Interestingly, mutations in the non-homologous region of the catalytic subunit A are able to block dissociat

  Introduction O’Dowd et al. identified a gene very similar to angiotensin type-1 receptor in 1993 (O’Dowd et al., 1993). The specific selective ligand of this receptor called APJ receptor was determined by Tatemoto et al. in 1998 as apelin (Tatemoto et al., 1998). The high expression of apelin and

  Gliomas and Aldehyde Dehydrogenase Aldehyde dehydrogenases (ALDHs) are key metabolic enzymes involved in regulation of glycolysis/gluconeogenesis pathways as well as in the detoxification of endogenous and exogenous aldehydes, regulating cell function and homeostasis. ALDHs play important roles in
