  Animal studies investigating the role of D1 dopamine receptors in the PFC have focused on delayed response tasks, which require online maintenance of a previously presented stimulus. Striatal dopamine is thought to be important for flexibility and updating goal representations when new information i

  Materials and methods Results Discussion Prolyl 4-hydroxylases are oxygenases with key roles in a variety of biological processes including oxygen sensing, siRNA regulation and collagen folding (Gorres and Raines, 2010). Hydroxyproline is particularly abundant in collagenous proteins which

  2021-04-12

  

  Introduction The cys-loop ligand gated ion channels (LGICs) are membrane-bound proteins mediating fast transduction from chemical to electrical signals at neuronal synapses and neuromuscular junctions [1], [2]. Each subunit that makes up the pentameric LGIC architecture possesses a dicysteine bri

  To better understand the mechanism of splicing in CLCN1, we began by constructing a minigene spanning exons 5–7 of CLCN1, resulting in the synthetic CLCN1 (5–7) minigene. We also established a new assay using real-time reverse transcription (RT)-PCR, which can distinguish between splicing variants b

  Effects of estrogens on bone Estrogens play an important role in bone remodeling, as demonstrated by studies in mice in which the ER genes were deleted [21], [22]. ERβ compensates for the 5,7-dihydroxychromone of ERα, and vice versa, but when both ERs are deleted a profound decrease in trabecula

  Then the mechanisms responsible for BPA induced up regulation of ERRγ were further investigated. Recent studies indicated that Akt and MPAK can modulate the protein levels and transcriptional activities of ERRγ (Heckler et al., 2014, Sun et al., 2014). Previous studies also indicated that BPA can ac

  Some antioxidants, including N-acetylcysteine and SOD, have been shown to decrease collagen deposition and protect the lungs in various animal models and even in clinical trials (Chan et al., 2013, Loomis-King et al., 2013, Rafii et al., 2013, Teixeira et al., 2008, Wang et al., 2013).

  Our previous work has demonstrated that two glutamate residues (Glu-305 and Glu-331 in murine and human TPP II) in the active site are important for exopeptidase activity in mTPP II [17]. At least one of these, Glu-331, seems to form a salt bridge to the N-terminal amino group of the substrate, posi

  The molecular mechanisms regulating the differentiation of Th1 versus Tfh glucocorticoid receptor antagonist from IL-12-stimulated CD4+ T cells remain largely uncharacterized in humans. This topic has been extensively studied in mice (Weinmann, 2014), because IL-12 stimulation promotes mouse naive C

  We also note that though the Metronidazole of the N-terminus in Ube2E1∆N46 or the mutations in Ube2E16KtoR enhanced their activity compared to the wild type, it failed to match Ube2D2 (Fig. 1). We concluded this difference to be multi-factorial as none of the Ube2E1∆N46 point mutants involving “Ub

  The first hint that GLP-1 might not be completely stable came from a meeting abstract in 1992, reporting that GLP-1 could be degraded in plasma incubations [16], although the enzyme(s) involved was not identified. A year later, Mentlein and colleagues [17], in a search for peptide substrates of the

  The central role of DNA-PK in the NHEJ NHEJ can be divided in several steps (Fig. 1A): 1) recognition and binding of Ku at each ends of the DSB following by the assembly of the DNA-PK at the break points and bridging; 2) phosphorylation of the DNA ends by DNA-PKcs; 3) ligation of the ends by DNA

  Although DGKγ is a lipid-modulating enzyme, the role of DGKγ in integral cell metabolism has not been reported. We found that DGKγ made a difference on cell metabolism profile in HCC cells, which may be caused partially by the downregulation of GLUT1. Glucose is a major source of energy, and decreas
