  Introduction Psoralea corylifolia L. (Leguminosae) is a well-known traditional Chinese medicine, and it has been widely used for the treatment of various diseases like bronchial asthma, leucopenia, vitiligo and psoriasis in East Asian countries (Zhang et al., 1990). Previous studies have reported t

  Phylogenetic analysis — Δ1-KSTDs have rather diverse amino hexokinase regulation sequences. A sequence distance analysis using the program MEGA6 [75] of all currently biochemically characterized Δ1-KSTDs yielded a largest p-distance [76] of 0.67 (on a scale of 0-1) for the Δ1-KSTDs from the actino

  2019-12-13

  

  The IP3R is a ubiquitously expressed Ca2+-release channel from the ER, activated by IP3, produced upon cellular stimulation by hormones, growth factors or neurotransmitters. Three genes are coding for the IP3R and their gene products (IP3R1, IP3R2, IP3R3) assemble in functional homo- or heterotetram

  Methods Adult male B6, 129 CRHtklee mice (25–30g at the beginning of the experiments) that were wild-type (CRF1R+/+) and recessive homozygous or knockout (CRF1R−/−) were housed six per cage. Mice were 3–5months old and derived from mating CRF1R+/− breeders (Jackson Laboratory, California). Wild-t

  Regarding their reported beneficial properties on the digestive tract, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of water extracts of three Hypericum sps., HP, HA, HU and some of the main phenolic compounds (Ch, R and Q) on DNA protection against oxidative and alkylating DNA damage induced by

  We elucidated that the ten DGK isozymes have different relative 1-MGK and 2-MGK activities vs DGK activity under the same conditions. However, because the octylglucoside-mixed micellar assay was developed for DGK, it is not known whether the DGKs exhibit maximum 1-MGK and 2-MGK activities in this as

  Similarly to the chemokine CCL-5, the level of the chemokine SDF-1 in the groups of individuals with APD did not differ from its level in the control group. However, a slight increase in the level of this chemokine was recorded in the group of women and men with APD and PTSD as compared with the cor

  Introduction Enzymes have higher selectivity, specificity and efficiency than chemical catalysts. Due to their properties and their green chemistry, biocatalysts are widely used in food, textile and pharmaceutical industry [1], [2]. A high efficient biocatalyst for industrial applications must be s

  Previous studies demonstrated that cPLA2α translocates to the phagosomal membrane during macrophage phagocytosis through mechanisms that, in humans, involve phosphorylation of the enzyme by c-Jun N-terminal kinases and membrane association via the cationic cluster of four lysine residues present at

  Conclusions When the authors joined the field of oxysterol analysis around the turn of the century, oxysterols and cholestenoic acids were mostly considered as uninteresting intermediates of cholesterol metabolism.

  Several reasons may explain that other studies using PDE-5-Is yielded negative or contradictory results [30], [31], [32]. Lee [30] applied 50mg sildenafil to seven patients with liver cirrhosis.
