  A similar pattern was observed for both tissues of P. harpagos, evidencing the absolute predominance of acetylcholinesterase. As observed, no effects were attributed to Iso-OMPA. The hypothesis that the major cholinesterasic form is AChE was reinforced considering the higher hydrolytic activity, whi

  Here, we examine the associations between serum pro and anti-inflammatory cytokines and cognitive functioning in early-stage bipolar I disorder (BDI) patients. As per previous studies, ‘early-stage’ was defined as being within three years of the first manic episode (Kauer-Sant\'Anna et al., 2009). W

  2020-10-21

  

  Testosterone is inactivated through hydroxylation and conjugation pathways [3], [4]. 6β-Hydroxylation is the main pathway among testosterone hydroxylation processes in the liver microsome. Testosterone 6β-hydroxylation is mainly catalyzed by cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) [5], [6], which is expressed in

  2020-10-21

  

  The Ewing sarcoma breakpoint region 1 gene (EWSR1) is a partner in a large, diverse range of mesenchymal (and some nonmesenchymal) tumors (Tables 1 and 2). As the 5′ partner, EWSR1 is able to fuse with an array of genes. These fusions can generate genetically different but phenotypically identical n

  In conclusion, our findings suggested that EP4 receptor activation triggers apoptosis in B-cell lymphoblasts. Our results also showed that EP4 receptor engagement inactivates NF-κB, which, in turn, sensitizes Ramos Ac-YVAD-CHO receptor to apoptosis induced by chemotherapeutic agents. EP4 receptor a

  2020-10-21

  

  WNV, a member of the genus Flavivirus within the family Flaviviridae, was first isolated in 1937 from a febrile woman in the West Nile region of Uganda (Brinton, 2002). Until 1999, WNV was mainly confined to Southern Europe, the Middle East, Africa, West and Central Asia, Indonesia and Australia. In

  In this study we have explored a functional role of the oxysterol/EBI2 system in this process. In 2011 we and others reported the discovery of oxysterols as ligands for EBI2 [6], [7]. Oxysterols are metabolites generated by hydroxylation of cholesterol and have been linked to a variety of fundamenta

  Introduction Type 2 Diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a metabolic disorder that raises blood glucose level for a prolonged time. T2DM is associated with acute complications like ketoacidosis, hyposmolar coma, chronic complications include heart disease, stroke, kidney failure, foot ulcers and damage to

  2020-10-21

  

  Although both DNA DSBs and DNA-PK activity increase with aging in skeletal muscle (Figure 1), we cannot conclude that aging-associated increase in DNA-PK activity is solely mediated by chromosomal breaks, as DNA-PK is also activated independently of chromosomal breaks by ROS (Li et al., 2014), which

  2020-10-21

  

  DNA methylation is associated with transcriptional silencing of tumor suppressors or other genes important for normal cellular function and plays an important role in the development of cancer and other diseases (such as breast and colorectal cancers) [19]. DNA methyltransferases (MTases) are a fami

  Two major mechanisms including apoptosis and oxidative stress have been suggested for MTX-induced cytotoxicity (Hafez et al., 2015; Neuman et al., 1999; El-Sheikh et al., 2015). It has been reported that MTX promotes cell death via apoptosis in both cancerous and non-transformed cells (Mazur et al.,

  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

  In mouse lung, arsenite enhances the formation of cigarette smoke-induced 8-oxodeoxyguanine (Hays et al., 2006) and BaP-induced DNA adducts (Evans et al., 2004). Moreover, arsenite inhibits the repair of BaP-induced DNA adducts in human lung carcinoma A549 Gemcitabine HCl (Schwerdtle et al., 2003),
