• The serotonin transporter gene encodes an integral membrane

  2020-01-21

  

  The serotonin transporter gene () encodes an integral membrane protein that transports serotonin from the synaptic spaces into the presynaptic neurons. The encoded protein terminates the action of serotonin and recycles it in a sodium-dependent way. This protein is a target of psychomotor stimulants

  Further proof is required as to whether ER membrane receptors play a role in the maintenance of bone mass. It is also possible that other non-genomic pathways may be involved. Nevertheless, whatever the precise mechanism of action of estrogens may be, the imbalance between bone formation and resorpt

  2020-01-20

  

  Curcumin is found safe in several human studies (Chainani-Wu, 2003; Cheng et al., 2001; Dcodhar et al., 2013), in contrary, the toxicity of curcumin has also been reported under some specific conditions (Burgos-Morón et al., 2010). Moreover, it alkylation of dna was also reported that curcumin indu

  2020-01-20

  

  Increased leukocyte trafficking and infiltration of the vascular wall are thought to provide a key stimulus for SMC activation and subsequent neointima formation in response to vascular injury [19], [20]. The essential trigger regulating the accumulation of leukocytes in the vessel wall is the upreg

• Ageing is associated with increased reactive oxygen species

  2020-01-20

  

  Ageing is associated with increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, oxidative stress and oxidative damage [43,44]. Overproduction of ROS can impair endothelial function by suppressing NO synthesis and scavenging NO thereby decreasing its overall bioavailability. Moreover, sustained oxidati

  2020-01-20

  

  Compared to ET-1, all agonists tested showed a 2–4 fold bias for the G protein constrictor assay compared to the β-arrestin assay (Table 1). This preliminary analysis indicated that at least modest pathway bias for endogenous ET peptides is possible, however the physiological significance of this, i

  2020-01-20

  

  Methacholine (MCh) is a bronchoconstrictive agent that has been widely used in the diagnoses of airway narrowing and hyperresponsiveness (Jonasson et al., 2009). MCh induces muscle contractions by stimulating the muscarinic cholinergic receptors that are found in both the airways and the lung parenc

  Conclusion The present study is the first to provide in vivo evidence that the σ1R deficiency can cause age-related increases in aggregation and phosphorylation of αSyn in dopaminergic neurons of SNpc. The σ1R has been reported to be decreased in the LX-1031 region of the nigrostriatal dopaminerg

  2020-01-20

  

  DNA replication checkpoint kinases in both yeast and human BDA-366 upregulate dNTP levels under replication stress to mediate their essential function at replication forks (Yeeles et al., 2013). It is possible that upregulation of dNTP levels under replication stress helps fork restart once replica

  2020-01-20

  

  As for antiviral activity, eight out of 23 synthesized compounds were active against influenza B virus with EC50 values in the range of 0.19–39 μM. Four of the eight influenza B hits were active against influenza A and two were also active against RSV (4 and 6, EC50 = 0.40 and 1.8 μM, respectively).

  The aberrant methylation of genes that suppress tumorigenesis appears to occur early in tumor development and increase progressively, eventually leading to the malignant phenotype [35]. Genes involved in every step of tumorigenesis can be silenced by this epigenetic mechanism. Hypermethylation of pr

  2020-01-20

  

  Several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in humans affect CYP3A expression and activity (Lamba et al., 2002). The CYP3A4 SNP rs2740574 (also referred to as CYP3A4*1B, by The Human Cytochrome P450 (CYP) Allele Nomenclature Database, http://www.cypalleles.ki.se/) is a change in the promoter regi

  The androgen receptor (AR) is a steroid hormone receptor that plays a crucial role in the normal development of male reproductive tissues, and its high expression and/or relaxation of its regulation are strongly implicated in prostate cancer (PCa) [11]. Androgen binding induces conformational change

  CXCL16 mediated cell migration is facilitated by the interaction of soluble CXCL16 with CXCR6, expressed predominantly on the cell surface of CD4+ Th1 cells, cancer infiltrating lymphocytes and platelets (Borst et al., 2012, Kim et al., 2001, Liao et al., 1997, Wilbanks et al., 2001). CXCR6 is invol
