  2020-10-20

  

  Introduction Mammalian proteases comprise both the peptidases or exopeptidases, which act at the N- or C-terminal positions of polypeptides, and proteinases or endopeptidases, which are capable of cleaving peptide bonds in the central regions of polypeptides. The endopeptidases are classified in

  2020-10-20

  

  The hepatic constitutive levels of CYP1A2 were minimal and were below detectable limits in the kidney, indicating an organ-specific trend which has been reported by other groups (Hawke and Welch, 1985, Paolini et al., 1997, Parkinson, 1996, Villard et al., 1998). Retinol administration did not have

  2020-10-20

  

  EBI2 remains an orphan GPCR and the identity and source of its ligand are yet to be described. Molecular studies of EBI2 have suggested that this receptor has constitutive activity, similar to that observed for many herpesvirus-encoded 7TM receptors (Benned-Jensen and Rosenkilde, 2008, Rosenkilde et

  To investigate the role of DPP-4 inhibition in inflammation-induced bone resorption, we evaluated the effect of a DPP-4 inhibitor on LPS-induced osteoclast formation and bone-resorption in vivo. Our results showed that the DPP-4 inhibitor inhibited LPS-induced osteoclast formation and bone resorptio

  2020-10-20

  

  DGAT2 is specifically responsible for endogenous synthesis of TAGs which are then packed into cytosolic LDs in the cytosol for storage and luminal apolipoprotein B (apoB)-containing LDs in the ER lumen destined for VLDL secretion [122,127]. DGAT2 can also synthesize TAG using exogenous FAs and suppo

  2020-10-20

  

  For human health risk assessment of chemicals, a default uncertainty factor (UF) of 3.16 is used to capture inter individual variation in toxicokinetics (Dorne and Renwick, 2005). However, the scientific background for this default UF remains unsatisfactory., Several studies have reported that a fac

  Pathological changes in animal are powerful indicators of the exposure to environmental stressors. The liver serves as an appropriate organ for the study of pollutant effects because of its high capacity to accumulate pollutant and its susceptibility to histopathological damage by pollutants (Padmin

  2020-10-20

  

  Midazolam oral clearance is used for characterization of both intestinal and hepatic CYP3A activity. However, the identification and subsequent use of metabolic markers of CYP3A activity can eliminate the need for unnecessary administration of probe drugs such as midazolam. Such metabolic markers wo

  2020-10-20

  

  Introduction Eicosanoid lipid prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) is the major prostaglandin produced by activated mast NU 7026 receptor (Lewis and Austen, 1981). The physiological function of PGD2 is mainly mediated by two G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), PGD2 receptor 1 and 2 (DP1 and DP2), which share

  Another option is to use the thiol groups of cysteine residues, which can be modified by use of PEG-maleimide and vinyl sulfone. However, changes in PEGylation interactions or reaction conditions can result in changes in the functional properties of the therapeutic proteins [[50], [51], [52]]. A st

  Data presented herein suggest that competent IL-18BP production in epithelial Brilliant Blue G is implemented by epigenetic means based on demethylation of a single CpG site at −45 bp/−44 bp (CpG2) of the human IL18BP promoter. In contrast, retarded IL-18BP production in monocytic cells associates
