  Cancer patients may develop cachexia, a deleterious wasting syndrome that is associated with muscle atrophy and has an impact on the well-being of patients and on the response to the treatment. Indeed, cachexia is a devastating and often irreversible syndrome observed in up to 80% of cancer patients

  2019-09-03

  

  Protein degradation via UPP involves two steps. One step is the conjugation of multiple ubiquitin to a substrate. The other step is the degradation of tagged protein by the downstream 26S proteasome complex. Protein ubiquitination is the E1–E2–E3 enzymatic cascade (Hershko & Ciechanover, 1998). E1-a

  2019-09-02

  

  Despite the weak and transient nature of E2–E3 interactions, this binding is required for the transfer of ubiquitin to the substrate. The low affinity characteristics of this interaction may be due to the fact that E2s use the same surface to interact with E1s and E3s, and hence while binding to an

  Tailoring pharmacological treatment to the genetic background of a person can enhance therapeutic response (), increase compliance (), and decrease drug toxicity (, , ). Because cocaine addiction has a strong genetic basis, with the vulnerability to develop an addiction estimated to be as high as 72

  In the present study we examined whether the gene for estrogen receptor alpha, Esr1, plays a role in the expression of maternal memory in female rats. The approach utilized a newly developed rat Esr1 knockout (KO) rat model (Rumi et al., 2014) to evaluate whether deletion of the Esr1 retinoic acid r

  In this report, we established mouse models suitable for human retinal cell transplantation by introducing phosphodiesterase 6B (Pde6b) mutant allele from retinal degeneration (rd) mouse models into NOG background. Pde6b (rd1) and Pde6b (rd10) mice are well-studied and frequently used animal models

  2019-09-02

  

  Introduction The development of non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) is a complex process characterized by the acquisition of altered proliferation and invasiveness. These changes are classically defined as occurring in stages, i.e., initiation, promotion, and progression. In the two-stage model of in

  Several studies highlighted the potential of EOCs to promote adverse effects on aquatic organisms. It was reported the toxicity of BPA to invertebrates and fish, and the effect of lipophilicity on toxicity was analyzed (Mathieu-Denoncourt et al., 2016). There was reported the effects of PPCPs on aqu

  In addition to providing substantial insight into substrate recognition, structural studies have revealed important details about mechanisms of glycosylation and HCF-1 cleavage [28,30,33]. Activation of the nucleotide-sugar is accomplished through interactions of the β-phosphate with the N-terminus

  Experimental procedures Acknowledgments Introduction Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) control many fundamental cellular processes, such as cell proliferation, differentiation, migration, and metabolism (Lemmon and Schlessinger, 2010). RTK activity is normally tightly controlled, and dysregu

  DNA end processing enzymes The simplest DSB is one that consists of two blunt DNA ends as these termini can be re-joined without processing. However, DSBs induced by ionizing radiation and reactive oxygen species are notorious for producing DNA ends which are non-ligatable (“dirty ends”) and thus

  In this report, we evaluate if this molecular mechanism is used universally by high-fidelity DNA polymerases during the replication of DNA lesions that are structurally distinct from abasic sites. This was approached by quantifying the kinetic parameters for the incorporation of modified and non-nat

  The purposes of this study is to develop an experimental model of CysLT2 receptor-mediated LTC4-induced lung air-trapping in guinea pigs using S-hexyl GSH, and to clarify the mechanism underlying response to such trapping using montelukast, a CysLT1 receptor antagonist, BayCysLT2RA, a CysLT2 recepto

  Several evidences showed that seizures increase brain extracellular glutamate, which binds to N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor, then up-regulated cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression in brain capillaries to increase BBB P-gp expression [11,13,29,30]. A recent study demonstrated a different signal
