The discoidin domain receptors DDR and DDR are receptor
2020-01-16
The discoidin domain receptors, DDR1 and DDR2, are receptor tyrosine kinases that are activated by different types of collagen (Shrivastava et al., 1997, Vogel et al., 1997). Both receptors interact with a number of fibrillar collagens, and DDR1, but not DDR2, is also activated by the network-formin

2020-01-16
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

2020-01-16
In the signaling cascade of innate immunity, most of the receptor proteins, adaptor proteins, and kinases are modified by ubiquitination to activate and transduce the downstream signaling for efficient production of the IFN and proinflammatory cytokines to combat the pathogens. For example, the K-63

2020-01-16
hnRNP E1 functions in a number of mRNA regulatory processes including transcription [74], [75], splicing [7], [74], [76], [77] and translation [6], [8], [69], [78], interacting with RNAs through CU rich regions such as the differentiation control element (DICE) and the TGFβ activated translation (BA

Interestingly, we observed that T2D islet Lovastatin have lower DPP-4 expression, as compared to ND cells (Fig. 1, Fig. 2). Previously, a reduced activity of this peptidase was observed in human T2D islet lysates (Omar et al., 2014). As mentioned above, GLP-1 is also produced by islet cells (alpha

Role of ALDH Isoenzymes in Glioma Growth and Invasion ALDH family genes are commonly upregulated in gliomas, indicating ALDH-dependent cell metabolism. Specific ALDH isoenzymes have been detected in high- and low-grade tumors implicated in cell proliferation, maintenance of CSC properties, invasi

We aim to apply the same technology to target other collagen-binding proteins using motifs from collagens that are specific for other receptors or matrix components. Previously, we synthesized THP libraries, called Toolkits, composed of an active guest sequence flanked by five GPP host triplets that

Materials and methods Results Discussion We confirmed the published cDNA and protein sequence of feline CSF-1R and stably cloned the cat receptor into the Ba/F3 cell line. Activation of feline CSF-1R by recombinant human CSF-1 was previously tested by Woolford et al. [14]. Expression of onc

Considering all these facts, in the present study, we investigated the effects of two highly selective CRF receptor 2 antagonists (antisavaugine-30, ASV-30; and astressin-2B, AST-2B) on anxiety behavior in rats. The rationale for such an experimental approach was based on the premise that fear and s

The anxiolytic-like responses produced by anti-SVG-30 suggests that CRF2 receptors mediate not only the elicitation of anxiety behavior induced by prior stress, i.e. conditioned freezing, but also unconditioned anxiety behavior induced by exposure to the unfamiliar environment of the elevated plus m

The human MARCH family comprises eleven members (termed MARCH-1 to 11), of which nine are transmembrane proteins. In this review, we focus on the role of the membrane-spanning MARCH proteins and how their transmembrane regions can mediate interactions with their target proteins. Therefore, the cytos

Studies on the external dehydrogenases of N. crassa have shown that the NDE1 protein is a Ca2+-dependent external NADPH dehydrogenase, while NDE2 is characterized as a dehydrogenase oxidizing both cytosolic substrates (external NADH and/or NADPH) (Carneiro et al., 2004, Melo et al., 2001). All three
