  2020-01-02

  

  Introduction The COMT gene is located on chromosomal band 22q11.2, extends over 28 kb, contains six exons, and encodes for catechol-O-methyl-transferase (Weinshilboum and Raymond, 1977; Grossman et al., 1992; Lundström et al., 1995; Bearden et al., 2005). This enzyme plays a major role in regulatio

  The purpose of this study is to investigate KDM1B expression and its functional significance in PC. We used lentivirus-mediated shRNA to down-regulate KDM1B expression in PC cell lines in vitro and detected the changes of cell proliferation and apoptosis. These studies provided a novel insight into

  Discussion The regulation of intracellular cholesterol levels is a biological process of vital importance for cellular function and integrity, and involves robust transcriptional and post-transcriptional mechanisms that are sensitive to metabolic feedback control. Amongst post-transcriptional mec

  2019-12-31

  

  The lack of effective strategies, aiming to directly increase the neuronal survival, is reflected by the fact that the only available therapeutic interventions are indirect. They consist of acute therapeutic interventions involving chemical and/or surgical removal of the thrombotic clot (Taqi et al.

  The outcome of DGK function will thus depend on the binding partners of each DGK isoform, and the effects that they exert can be quite different. A clear example of this concept has been demonstrated for the type IV DGKs, ζ and ι, which are structurally very similar but have opposing effects on Ras

  Prospect of DDR2 antagonist DDR2, a receptor of tyrosine kinase has been found now to be reported to play a significant role in onset of osteoarthritis at the early stage of diseases progression. The DDR2 are the receptor for extracellular collagen and activated upon the binding of collagen resul

  2019-12-31

  

  Confidence with which data of animal safety/toxicity studies can be translated to human depends upon the knowledge that whether humans would be exposed to similar chemical entities (parent and its metabolites) as the animals exposed during toxicity studies. In this regard, in vitro qualitative evalu

  The genetic asymmetries between parental genomes are also the subject of genetic conflict theory. This concept proposes that paternally inherited imprinted genes “extract” nutrients from the mother during gestation. By contrast, maternally inherited genes counteract the effect of paternal genes (Con

  Another option is to use the thiol groups of cysteine residues, which can be modified by use of PEG-maleimide and vinyl sulfone. However, changes in PEGylation interactions or reaction conditions can result in changes in the functional properties of the therapeutic proteins [[50], [51], [52]]. A s

  Materials and methods Results Discussion Recently it has been found that prostaglandins play an important role in modulating the host immune system [1,3,22,23], and some parasites produce these eicosanoid mediators to survive into their hosts [6,[10], [11], [12],24,25]. The discovery that p

  Introduction Taenia solium is the causative agent of human taeniasis/cysticercosis and porcine cysticercosis, a major health problem and a veterinary economic challenge in developing countries of Latin America, Africa, and Asia. In Mexico, approximately 500 human neurocysticercosis cases were repor

  Mass spectrometry-based technologies Oxysterols tend not to be observed in global lipidomic analysis, whether shot-gun based electrospray ionisation – mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) or liquid chromatography (LC)-MS based. This is because of their comparatively low-abundance and poor ionisation charac

• HOIP s ability to build linear Ub chains

  2019-12-30

  

  HOIP\'s ability to build linear Ub chains arises from a unique domain that follows directly after the RING2 domain, the linear ubiquitin chain-determining domain (LDD) (Fig. 1). Structures have revealed that the LDD is structurally integrated into RING2, creating a single RING2–LDD unit (Fig. 2D) [4
