  [125I] α-bungarotoxin competes with ACh, an endogenous activator of α7-nACh receptors by binding to the ACh binding site on the receptor (Albuquerque et al., 2009). For this reason, the effect of curcumin was investigated on the specific binding of [125I] α-bungarotoxin. Saturation curves for the bi

  A major open question in the field of lipid mediators is the molecular nature of the PLA2 enzyme involved in the release of DHA and related omega-3 fatty acids from phospholipids as a first committed step for the generation of SPMs. Although by analogy with AA it is often assumed that cPLA2α may ser

  2020-01-07

  

  In this study, we further investigated the involvement of CRF1 and CRF2 receptors of the dPAG in the regulation of panic-related responses. For this, we used two animal models that associate escape behavior with panic attacks: the elevated T maze and the electrical stimulation of the dPAG (for a ful

  2020-01-07

  

  The effect of the simple dopaminergic tonic/phasic model on cognitive processing has been investigated by a few studies (Nolan et al., 2004; Rosa et al., 2010). Rosa et al. (2010), using a Stroop task that requires different levels of cognitive flexibility and stability, observed an association betw

  Introduction Myotonic dystrophy (dystrophia myotonica, DM) is an autosomal dominant disorder and the most common form of inherited muscular dystrophy in adults [1]. DM is characterised by a wide range of symptoms, including myotonia, progressive muscle loss, cataracts, cardiac conduction defects,

  Although the analysis described above goes far to explain the mechanism of Bikinin synthesis perturbations through CHK1 inhibition, it raises important questions about the mechanism by which WT RAS isoforms promote CHK1 S280 phosphorylation. Previous reports have shown that both the MAPK-RSK and PI

  An interesting observation pertinent to the immunology of pregnancy comes from a study by Kruse et al., they found that recurrent miscarriage patients with higher serum progesterone levels had lower Th1/Th2 cytokine ratios suggesting that progesterone levels modulate cytokine production patterns. Pr

  Breast cancer is the most common neoplasm in women, with approximately 231,840 new cases of invasive breast cancer, 60,290 additional cases of in situ breast cancer and 40,290 deaths occurring in 2015 in the United States. Meanwhile, about 2350 men will be diagnosed with breast cancer, and 440 men w

  Rationale Recently we have shown that the nasal CysLT2 receptor localized exclusively in blood vessels and the expression level of the CysLT2 receptor in patients with nasal allergy was higher than that in patients with non-allergic rhinitis (Shirasaki et al. Allergol Int 2013). We hypothesized t

  Cytokines and NK cells Combined effects of cytokines and other stimuli on NK cell function Cytokine-stimulated NK AICAR phosphate have enhanced capacity to kill tumor cells. However, usually, individual cytokines do not seem to be sufficient for full activation, proliferation, survival and ef

  Although elevated production of cysLTs is characteristic of rhinosinusitis of diverse etiology, patients with aspirin-sensitive rhinosinusitis show even higher levels of cysLTs in the nasal mucosa, which are further enhanced by aspirin challenge., Elevated production of cysLTs in these patients may

  Clinical studies Practical implications for young women Conclusion Research on the oncogenic mechanism of hormones has advanced dramatically in the latter years. The finding that progestogens are more powerful determinants of risk than estrogens in breast cancer has been added to advances i

  Nrf2 and HO-1 are key factors in the regulation of oxidative stress in the body. Research has shown that KLF2 can activate Nrf2 and HO-1 [14]. To investigate the mechanisms by which KLF2 regulates eNOS uncoupling and oxidative stress, Nrf2 was inhibited or HO-1 was knocked down in KLF2 overexpressin

  The two SNPs rs4818-rs4680 presented above are part of the haploblock (rs6269, rs4633, rs4818, rs4680) presenting the 3 major haplotypes which influence the enzymatic activity of COMT. This activity is inversely related to the sensitivity of pain in a chronic pain syndrome; so the haplotype (GCGG) h

  It would be very useful if unphosphorylated CK1s could be prepared using an E. coli expression system without the troublesome in vitro phosphatase treatment. So far, it has been shown that coexpressed λPPase, a Mn2+-dependent protein phosphatase that can dephosphorylate phospho-Ser/Thr/Tyr [20,21],
