  2020-05-26

  

  In bone, PGE2 exerts both anabolic and catabolic effects [6], [7], [8], [9]. Administration of PGE2 to mice lacking each of the four prostanoid receptors identified EP4 as the primary mediator of PGE2-induced bone formation [10]. While the role of EP1 in osteoblastic differentiation and bone metabol

  2020-05-26

  

  Tropical theileriosis is caused by the apicomplexan parasite Theileria annulata which is transmitted by a tick vector from the genus Hyalomma in cattle (Echebli et al., 2014, Li et al., 2014). Theileria parasites invade the leukocytes by sporozoites secreted from the vector, schizonts mature into me

  2020-05-26

  

  Celiac disease occurs in the small intestine due to the ingestion of gluten and triggers an immune response by T-cells resulting in tissue remodelling and malnutrition [6]. Earlier studies by many researchers have shown that the prolamins of gluten are the toxic agent for celiac disease, since they

  Introduction Excessive exposure to ultraviolet (UV) irradiation from the sun injures human skin, which might lead to premature aging and skin pathologies [1], [2]. Chronic exposure to UV (especially ultraviolet-B, UVB) irradiation could profoundly affect the skin epidermis, interfering with the ker

  Db model cells showed various aberrant phenotypes that seemed to reflect the pathological abnormalities found under diabetic conditions. First, in Db model cells after insulin stimulation, we found the inhibition of the transcriptional repression of the gluconeogenic genes, PCK1 and G6PC, and aberra

  Presumably, LBPs have health-promoting activities, such as antioxidant, immune regulation, anti-stress, anticancer, neuroprotective and antidiabetic activities [[7], [8], [9], [10], [11]]; LBPs can improve the whole-body health status of mice and stimulate the expressions of IL-2, IL-12 and TNF-α, w

  Besides degrading cholesterol, the cholesterol degradation pathway also offers a route to obtain useful starting materials for the production of steroid drugs and hormones. Indeed, steroids are among the most marketed pharmaceuticals with about 300 approved steroid drugs [15] and a worldwide market

  2020-05-22

  

  Confidence with which data of animal safety/toxicity studies can be translated to human depends upon the knowledge that whether humans would be exposed to similar chemical entities (parent and its metabolites) as the animals exposed during toxicity studies. In this regard, in vitro qualitative evalu

  Characterization factor is another variable suggested in the presented correlation. Specific gravity (SG) and normal boiling point of hydrocarbons are needed to calculate Watson characterization factor [61], [62]: The boiling point of bitumen cannot be precisely measured, because bitumens contain

  On the other hand, the properties of collagen materials could be efficiently improved by proper chemical modification. The crosslinking agents for collagen generally involve aldehydes (e.g., glutaraldehyde (GA), isocyanates (e.g., hexamethylene diisocyanate (HMDI), photoreactive agents, polyepoxy co

  In contrast to AChE, BuChE (Table 2) exhibited a measurable time-dependent inactivation only with tcid 2 among the four acetophenones in this study. Values of Ki obtained from steady-state inhibition of BuChE by all four acetophenones were, as noted in the Results, 10- to 200-fold greater (indicatin

  The ACC receptor family appear to be attractive targets for the development of novel anthelmintics. With this in mind we also tested the activity of the anthelmintics levamisole and pyrantel which activate the nematode nAChR (Martin and Robertson, 2007). We found both molecules were partial agonists
