  A wealth of studies support the key role of high NO in promoting higher blood flow and thus greater O2 delivery to working tissues in healthy Tibetans and thus partly compensate hypoxia induced low arterial O2 content [7,9,27]. We observed high eNOS mRNA, protein and enzyme activity in Ladakhi women

  2019-09-03

  

  The elastase-induced injury model has been shown to produce airspace enlargement, and increases in lung volume and compliance that are similar to those observed in human patients (Hantos et al., 2008, Hamakawa et al., 2011). Thus, this model, which has been used to study emphysema, should be adequat

  2019-09-03

  

  The attachment of ubiquitin to RTKs, such as EGFR, mediates efficient delivery through the endosome-lysosome system for proteolysis. In this way, RTK degradation enables cessation of signal transduction. A recent siRNA screen identified a number of USPs that can significantly modulate EGFR levels an

  2019-09-02

  

  A structural explanation for how RBR RING1s handle their bound E2~Ubs differently from canonical RINGs has not been readily apparent. Only a few residue positions are strongly conserved in RING and RING1 domains, most of which are zinc-coordinating Cys and histidine residues. A key position in canon

  The E1 enzyme is the apex for downstream enzymatic cascades and signaling pathways mediated by Ub and Ub-like proteins (Ubls) (Pickart, 2001). Studying characteristics of E1 and its catalytic functions may throw light to the role of ubiquitination in cell development. All known eukaryotic E1 are mon

  2019-09-02

  

  Since both the Ub and ISG15 systems are crucial for the innate immune response, many prokaryotic and viral pathogens have evolved ways to hijack them in order to create a “window-of-opportunity” for efficient replication. Several viral and bacterial proteins have been found to directly target these

  Materials and methods Results Discussion DUSP1 is a member of the subfamily of the Dusl specific phosphatases (DUSPs). High levels of DUSP1 observed in lung, liver and placenta, and low levels have been found in the Sunitinib kinase and kidney. DUSP1 has been shown to be elevated in various

  Introduction Hematopoietic stem Amyloid Beta-Peptide (1-40) and leukemic stem cells (HSCs and LSCs, respectively) both have a capacity of self-renewal. Whereas HSCs give rise to all blood lineages during lifetime hematopoiesis, LSCs are responsible for the initiation and propagation of leukemia,

  To study the effect of DDR inhibition by imatinib, nilotinib and dasatinib in a cellular environment we generated DDR1 and DDR2 expressing HEK293 cell lines by stable transfection. Of the five DDR1 splice variants we focused on the 1b variant whose over-expression has been associated with pulmonary

  Materials and methods Results Discussion In rodent species, CYP2E1 and CYP2B have been implicated in CCl4 metabolism. In this study, we used expressed human CYP2E1 to show that this enzyme is a high-affinity catalyst responsible for low-dose CCl4 metabolism. Studies employing an inhibitory

  Introduction Nucleic acids are polyanionic and their negatively charged nucleotides allow the binding of cationic dyes, such as acridine orange (3,6-dimethylaminoacridine). Acridine orange (AO) was first synthesized in 1889, but its ability to bind nucleic acids was only reported in 1940, with grea

  Widely expressed mammalian adhesion receptors for fibrillar collagens include the α2β1- and α11β1-integrins and the discoidin domain receptors (DDRs), DDR1 and DDR2 (Leitinger, 2011). Integrins and DDRs bind distinct and separate motifs in native fibrillar collagen (Curat et al., 2001, Vogel et al.,

  Making the BN-Cox model computationally efficient One of the challenges to applying the BN-Cox model is an exponential growth of the conditional probability tables (CPT) corresponding to the survival variables, as the number of risk factors increases [22]. When the number of risk factors is high,

  In cholesterol synthesis, HMG-CoA reductase is the rate limiting step in cholesterol biosynthesis. Statins or HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors are commonly used for management of hypercholesterolemia. The presence of an HMG-like moiety on these drugs allows them to competitively bind to the catalytic do
