  2023-08-01

  

  Macrophage polarization is linked to activation of the ligand-dependent transcription factor PPARγ. Recently, Odegaard et al. demonstrated with a macrophage-specific deletion of PPARγ in mice that alternative macrophage activation is impaired [14]. We provided evidence that contact to apoptotic sirt

  2023-08-01

  

  5-LOX in pancreatic cancer 5-LOX is a key player in pancreatic cancer (PC) progression. The upregulation of 5-LOX mRNA has been observed in pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and also in neoplastic pancreatic tissues (Kennedy et al., 2003). Higher levels of 5-LOX transcripts (messengers) are presen

  Another significant group of 5α-reductase inhibitors is the steroidal 3-carboxylic p2x7 antagonist derivatives (relevant examples in Fig. 5), which were designed to mimic the putative enzyme-bound enolate intermediate. This was achieved by introducing sp2-hybridized centers at C3 and C4 and an anion

  In this scenario, the receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI), sunitinib, an anti-angiogenic agent, was tested in phase III trial, leading to a longer progressing free survival when compared to interferon (median: 11 vs. 5mo, respectively, hazard ratio (HR) = 0.42; 95% CI: 0.32–0.54; P suggested t

  2023-08-01

  

  Axl, which belongs to the Tyro-Axl-Mer (TAM) family of RTKs, has been reported to regulate a variety of physiological processes including cell survival, proliferation, migration and adhesion, through the activation of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/V-akt murine thymoma viral oncogene homolog (

  Previously, several genes such as cytokine (Lyu and Park, 2007), cell motility-associated genes (Schotterl et al., 2017), transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), TGF-β receptor II which is a cell surface receptor with serine/threonine kinase activity (Jiang et al., 2014, Schotterl et al., 2017), cell

  2023-08-01

  

  The molecular mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of cholestatic pruritus remain unknown [45], [46]. Indeed, there has been an enormous effort at understanding the etiology of PBC-related pruritus, including work at the cellular and molecular level, but such efforts have not been translated into

  Research perspective In vitro and in vivo studies have demonstrated that increased LPA/ATX signaling contributes to cancer initiation and progression. Recent findings on the role of non-tumoral ATX in cancer progression and metastasis highlighted a new functional contribution for the microenviron

  2023-08-01

  

  It was reported that overexpression of the rat ACL gene in tobacco increased the total ACL activity by 4 fold, which increased the production of fatty acids by 16% [8]. Recently, a 1.7-fold increase of fatty acids and 1.9-fold increase of triacylglycerol (TAG) was observed in Aspergillus oryzae with

  2023-08-01

  

  The skin permeability barrier is important for the prevention of loss of water and electrolytes from inside the body and for protection against the invasion of external pathogens, allergens, and harmful compounds. Multi-layered lipids, called lipid lamellae, are present in the outermost cell layer o

  The analysis of the profile of protein phosphorylation in MMS-treated Berberine Sulfate confirmed that both the ATM and ATR pathways were activated in S-phase blocked cells. Interestingly, phosphorylation of Chk1 was observed 24h after MMS-treatment both in AT- and ATM-inhibited cells, whilst in the

  Concluding remarks It is clear that a disordered l-arginine homeostasis by changes in arginase, NOS and ADMA activity and expression, is not only vital in the chronic airway diseases, Nicotine and COPD, but also seems to play an important role in many co-morbidities. Unknown, however, is whether

  In order to determine whether the faster Rh2-induced apoptosis is specific of cholesterol depletion, we determined the cytotoxic effect of Rh2 in p2x receptors depleted or not in sphingomyelin, another abundant plasma membrane lipid exhibiting enrichment in lipid rafts. We showed that, in contrast

  2023-08-01

  

  AP-1 activity is increased by MAP kinase stimulation in different cell types (Whitmarsh and Davis, 1996), while MKP-1, the enzyme that catalyzes the dephosphorylation and inactivation of MAP kinases in the nucleus, inhibits AP-1 (Rössler et al., 2008, Rössler and Thiel, 2009, Mayer et al., 2011, Thi

  Weak and transient interactions of HMGB proteins in such hit-and-run mechanisms are understandable given that “fluorescence loss in photobleaching” (FLIP) experiments employing GFP-labeled HMGBs have shown that in living cells they are the most mobile of all nuclear proteins [144].
