  Epigenetic silencing of genes that determine tumor invasiveness, growth patterns of tumors, and tumor-cell apoptosis12, 29 may also affect the expression of drug-metabolizing enzymes, thereby providing an additional genetic mechanism in pharmacogenomics. Trisomy 8 that contains wild-type GGH could b

  2019-12-02

  

  Bearing in mind that temperamental traits are genetically determined, in the present study we have chosen to investigate COMT and OPRM1 gene polymorphisms related to stimulation of the nervous system, which is extremely important in combat sports. The μ-opioid receptor gene OPRM1 is located on the

  2019-12-02

  

  There are some limitations to our study. First, the small sample size, even if comparable or higher than most studies, did not offer the possibility to consider other variables, such as frequency of use or age of onset. Second, since most subjects did not report current use, we could not analyze sep

  Thy1.1 nephritis is one of the most commonly used models to study the course of immunoglobulin A and other mesangioproliferative nephropathies. To date, most of the studies have focused on mesangial and, to a lesser extent, endothelial cell recovery following capillary damage, whereas data concern

  2019-12-02

  

  Ubiquitination can occur on a single (monoubiquitination) or several (multiubiquitination) lysine residues, or the same lysine residue can be subjected to several rounds of Ub conjugation (polyubiquitination). Ub bonds within polyUb chains are formed through 1 of 7 lysine residues in Ub, and the typ

  In rats exposed to 1 day of nicotine withdrawal (24 h after the last nicotine administration) we expected a decrease of general locomotor activity and a decrease of global striatal dopamine release, which were assessed in a previous study following 14 days of nicotine exposure and 24 h of nicotine w

  The results showed that ethanol and acetaldehyde production was not affected by the presence of CPA-7. We observed that the concentration of ethanol increased throughout the assay up to 95–179 μL L-1 regardless of the treatment. The acetaldehyde concentration reached its highest values after 6–9 day

  Introduction To detect exposure to and effects of neuroactive pesticides in aquatic organisms, one widely used biomarker is cholinesterase (ChE) activity, which, among other possible functions, catalyzes the hydrolysis of the neurotransmitter Mupirocin (ACh) in the cholinergic synapses of the ce

  2019-11-30

  

  Assessment of DNA damage by comet assay and ChEs activity has been widely used as a biomarker of genotoxicity and exposure to pesticide respectively, to measure the risk related to pesticides in the exposed population [15]. Very few studies have explored the association between DNA damage and worker

  Enzyme mimics belong to a type of rising catalysts which show the similar function with their corresponding natural enzymes [20], [21], [22], [23], [24], [25], [26], [27], although their structures are different from natural enzymes. In the area of prodrug activation, the widely-used enzyme mimics a

  Compared with qualitative analysis by Kalyankar et al. (2013), less sequences were identified in iTRAQ-labelled analysis. It is not surprising with the finding that each of the identified peptide includes the sequence in every sampling point. Glu(51)-Tyr(52) of αs2-casein was observed to have been c

  In conclusion, as illustrated in Fig. 5G, in response to MNNG-induced DNA damage, PARP-1 appears to have dual roles in determining the cell fate in response to MNNG: PARP-1 activation is the cause of non-apoptotic cell death via ATP depletion and PARP-1 activation is able to elicit a self-protective
