  In previous work, we showed that ginsenoside Rd serves as a 26S proteasome inhibitor (Chang et al., 2008). In this study, we focused on the inhibition mechanism of ginseng on E1-ubiquitin activation for cancer prevention. Here, we report in vitro mechanistic studies that reveal a potential role for

  Most recently, it has been described that cPLA2α activity contributes to the phagosomal escape of Mycobacterium tuberculosis [73,74]. The enzyme appears to facilitate translocation of the microbe from the endosomal to the cytosolic compartment of human THP-1 macrophage-like cells, allowing survival

  In line with findings reported for lipopolysaccharide activated macrophages [5] we have observed efficient secretion of 25-OHC into the cellular supernatant. In experiments analyzing free transfer of cholesterol or 25-OHC from erythrocytes and plasma, exchange of 25-OHC was found to occur about 2000

  Introduction Diabetes is a common life-long health condition and a serious complex condition which can affect the entire body. In the last decade, the cases of people living with diabetes jumped almost 50 percent and worldwide, it afflicts more than 380million people. Dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP

  2020-08-06

  

  Although many proteins are reported in the databases as AlkB homologs, only three, E. coli AlkB and human and mouse ABH2 and ABH3 are known to repair DNA [56], [62], [64]. Six other human homologs, ABH1 and ABH4 to 8 [76] are of unknown function (Fig. 7). An initial report suggested that ABH1 could

  2020-08-06

  

  Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are serine/threonine kinase proteins comprising of 20 members that fall under protein kinases family. These enzymes play a crucial role in cell division, transcription and post-transcriptional modification [7]. For example, the formation of an active complex composed

  2020-08-06

  

  VEGF inhibition causes vascular regression and tissue hypoxia in tumor tissues and their surrounding healthy adipose tissues. In this regard, tumors in steatotic livers and adjacent to adipose tissues would experience more hypoxia than non-adipose tumors. Indeed, our present experimental results sup

  Almost all previously published haplotype association studies have demonstrated the importance of haplotype reconstruction because the combinations of SNPs exert synergistic effects on protein function. Even synonymous polymorphisms within haplotypes can have functional consequences that are drastic

  Serine 129 phosphorylation is thought to be one of the most important posttranslational modifications of αSyn. One of the principal observations in this study is that the phosphorylation (S129) of αSyn was observably potentiated in 6- and 9-month-old σ1R−/− mice. The level of phosphor-αSyn in dopami

  2020-08-05

  

  Marine sponges are organisms naturally rich in collagens whose features are peculiar if compared to their vertebrate counterparts (Garrone et al., 1975). Sponges are an interesting alternative to the classical bovine and porcine sources for the extraction of these molecules, and their exploitation i

  Metakaolin is the product of calcination of kaolinite rich clay at temperatures between 600 and 850 °C [11], [12] depending on the purity and the crystallinity of the initial clay. The geopolymers from metakaolin as aluminosilicate source have shown promising results in previous works [13], [14], [1

  RING-type dimers are generally formed in one of two ways: 1) sequences outside the RING are primarily responsible for dimerization; or 2) the RING per se is responsible for dimerization. In both types, the two RINGs are positioned such that the E2 binding surfaces face away from each other (see Fig.

  The heteroaromatic fused derivatives with furan or thiophene developed by Brañas and co-workers demonstrate increased antitumor activity. In fact, heteroaromatic rings likely contribute to additional interactions such as Van der Waals forces. Qian and co-workers have described a novel family of naph

  Henderson et al. have demonstrated that montelukast blockade of CysLT1 receptors improves airway remodeling, including airway goblet cell metaplasia, smooth muscle cell layer thickening, and subepithelial fibrosis in a mouse model of asthma. The histological findings of this study revealed a thicken
