  EBI2 and its ligand(s) EBI2 was found in a screen of upregulated genes in human B cells upon infection with EBV [1]. EBI2 is a G-protein (Gαi type) coupled receptor [2] but as long as 18 years after its discovery the nature of its ligand remained undisclosed. With the help of transfected cell lines

  2020-05-05

  

  As small non-coding RNAs, microRNAs (miRNAs) can control gene expression at the post-transcriptional level by binding to the 3′-untranslated regions (3′-UTR) of messenger RNAs (mRNA) [15], [16]. miRNAs have been anticipated to regulate virtually all cellular mechanisms [17] and to play an important

  Previous studies from our laboratory in CD1 mice using the incisional postoperative pain model have shown that the incision induces significant mechanical postoperative hyperalgesia lasting between 7 and 10days, with peak effect between 4h-2days (Cabañero et al., 2009a, Cabañero et al., 2009b, Campi

  Introduction The inflammation process involves sequential activation of signaling molecules, pro-inflammatory mediators, such as prostaglandins, leukotrienes, and oxygen free radicals [1]. Two cyclooxygenases EDC.HCl australia were responsible for activation of the production of prostaglandins (PG

  2020-05-05

  

  Agonist binding ETA activation is promoted by binding of the endogenous peptidergic agonists to their orthosteric binding site on the receptor. ET1 and ET2 (Trp6-Leu7-ET1) bind with equal high affinity to ETA, whereas the third endogenous isopeptide ET3 (Thr2-Phe4-Thr5-Tyr6-Lys7-Tyr14-ET1) binds

  The CYP3A genes are regulated physiologically by glucocorticosteroids, growth hormone, thyroid hormones and cytokines [13, 20, 30]. It has been shown that glucocorticoid receptor (GR), pregnane X receptor (PXR), constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) and vitamin D receptor (VDR) play an important ro

  Finally, naringin and hesperidin have different glycosidic moieties (neohesperidose α-1,2 and rutinose α-1,6 respectively), bound in the same C7 position on the A ring of the flavonoid. The higher value of k/KM of RHA-Phis towards the former substrate suggests that the enzyme shows a preferential hy

  Role of ERK signaling in preventive and therapeutic potential of flavonoids in neurodegenerative diseases ERK is one of the main pharmacological targets of natural phenolic compounds and contributes to several therapeutic approaches including anti-atherogenic, anti-cancer, anti-colitis, anti-arth

  MSCs are self-renewing, multipotent progenitor cells, with multilineage potential to differentiate into adipocytes, osteocytes, and chondrocytes. In addition, MSCs can migrate to sites of inflammation, supporting hematopoiesis and homeostatic maintenance. Given their unique therapeutic properties, M

  It was demonstrated that ET-1 signaling is the primary axon guidance mechanism that accounts for sympathetic innervation of the sinoatrial node and myocardium in the developing mouse heart [11]. In this article, we will review the findings relating to the basic profiles; i.e. molecular features of

  The EGFR belongs to the ErbB family of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs), comprised of four members: EGFR (ErbB1, HER1), HER2 (ErbB2), HER3 (ErbB3) and HER4 (ErbB4) [24]. HER receptors are activated by a group of epidermal growth factor (EGF) ligands and undergo homo- or hetero-dimerization during th

  Results of the present study demonstrate that 25-OHC treatment of THP-1 monocytes induced vimentin intermediate filament reorganization to more cortical structures and a polarized phenotype (Fig. 5).

  In contrast, T-bet downregulated the expression of Tfh functional molecules, CD40L, ICOS, and IL-21; accordingly, T-bet overexpression abrogated the helper function of IL-12-stimulated CD4+ T cells. Thus, T-bet seems more involved in the downregulation of the helper functions than in the differentia
