  2020-01-13

  

  Collagen compaction and alignment are generated by cell-mediated contractile forces (Stopak and Harris, 1982). The transmission of actomyosin forces to collagen has been mainly attributed to integrins and the activation of the Rho-ROCK pathway (Clark et al., 2007, Kural and Billiar, 2013, Provenzano

  On the other hand, the IL-8 promoter activity induced by the signalling cascade of the CysLT1-G300S receptor is higher than that of the WT receptor. The chemokine IL-8 is mainly involved in the recruitment and activation of neutrophils and we have previously shown that this chemokine gene is a targe

  2020-01-13

  

  CYP450s are heme-containing monooxygenases constituting a conserved gene superfamily of heme-thiolate proteins, and are found in prokaryotes and eukaryotes (Martignoni et al., 2006). They play a key role in detoxification of endogenous (e.g., steroids) and exogenous compounds (e.g., drug, insecticid

  Within their range of applicability, both approaches matched the phase boundaries and yields generally to within the measurement error. The approaches matched the phase compositions generally to within 11 wt% or less with the average absolute deviations listed below: One advantage of the proposed a

  In the particular case of metals, several authors showed that AChE inhibition is somewhat contradictory and even questionable (Frasco et al., 2005, Nunes et al., 2005, Sáenz et al., 2010). Uranium is a particular metal, and one that has been shown to complex with several biologically important prote

  Conclusions Statement of authorship Nonaneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (NA-SAH) differs from aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) in both clinical course and outcome. In spite of many reports and case series since the first description in 1985, the etiology of NA-SAH remains uncertain

  Our recent QTL mapping study revealed that the adaptor genes, including the NCK genes and the ABI genes, are located within the genomic regions harboring the most significant QTL (Zhou et al., 2017), suggesting that these genes could be involved in the determination of resistance, and possibly throu

  The effect of ET-1 activity on the development of experimental pulmonary fibrosis has also been examined by other investigators. One study found that repeated administration of Bosentan, an ERA used to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), significantly decreased bleomycin-induced pulmonary f

  Conflict of interest statement Introduction Endothelins (ETs) are a family of multifunctional, naturally occurring peptides with long-lasting vasoconstrictor and pressor effects (Zhou et al., 2004). They are synthesized as a large protein, the pre-proET-1 or Big ET-1, which is subsequently cle

  2020-01-13

  

  In mammals, NETs contain DNA and antimicrobial proteins composed mainly of nuclear histones, granule-derived neutrophil elastase, myeloperoxidase, lactoferrin, pentraxin, and gelatinase among others [11], [46], [47], [48]. In fish, NETs-like structures have been observed, and DNA staining and immuno

  2020-01-13

  

  An important role for the precursor molecule of the main EBI2 ligand, 25-OHC, in the inhibition of inflammation was recently shown. 25-OHC was demonstrated to inhibit inflammasome induction in mouse macrophages [28]. Inflammasome assemblies are the sites of caspase 1 activation and lead to the gener

  In this context, we initiated a program to develop new antiviral chemotypes towards a host factor implicated in JLK 6 replication: the host (human) dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) [21]. We recently identified this enzyme as the molecular target of 1-aryl-4,6-diamino-1,2-dihydrotriazines, structurall

  Introduction Safety-critical systems are defined as those systems where failure could result in the loss of life or injury to people, damage to equipment or to the environment [9]. Safety standards, e.g., [41], [17], [18], [6], [38], expect appropriate safety analysis tasks to be integrated within

  The vascular endothelium is a highly dynamic multifunctional organ that is critically involved in the regulation of vessel integrity, vascular growth and remodeling, tissue growth and metabolism, immune responses, cell adhesion, angiogenesis, hemostasis and vascular permeability [23]. Therefore, the

  Over the past decade, targeting DNA repair proteins has emerged as an effective tool to enhance chemosensitivity of malignant cells [9]. However, identification and selection of the proper target of DNA repair pathways is critical to increase cytotoxic activity of chemotherapeutic agents in cancer c
