  Acknowledgments Introduction Cell cycle arrest or delay may occur at 3 major checkpoints, i.e. G1/S, intra-S and G2/M. p53 has a central role in controlling the G1/S checkpoint, and its loss or deactivation, occurring in the majority of cancers, forces cancer cells to rely on the S and G2/M ch

  Artificial permutations have also been exploited by protein engineering to manipulate protein scaffolds, in order to improve catalytic activity, alter substrate or ligand binding affinity, reduce proteolytic susceptibility, increase stability, generate different aggregation states and improve fluore

  2021-02-22

  

  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

  2021-02-22

  

  There are two types of DDRs, DDR1 and DDR2, which are type I transmembrane RTKs characterized by an N-terminal extracellular discoidin domain containing a collagen binding site [8]. DDR1 expression is somewhat restricted to epithelial cells, while DDR2 is often expressed in cells of mesenchymal orig

  Conclusions Introduction The terms endocrine active and endocrine disruptive have been used to describe an ever-expanding list of naturally-occurring and synthetic compounds that interact with mammalian hormonal systems, and in particular, the reproductive system. These compounds have been ass

  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. Some oxysterols had been shown to have biological activity, but the most studied o

  2021-02-22

  

  ABH3 expression is elevated in prostate carcinomas and has been referred to as prostate cancer antigen-1 or PCA-1. ABH3/PCA-1 was proposed as a diagnostic marker for prostate cancers, and suggested as a possible therapeutic target [82]. However, the recent studies of ABH2 and ABH3-null mice indicate

  2021-02-22

  

  DGAT2 is specifically responsible for endogenous synthesis of TAGs which are then packed into cytosolic LDs in the cytosol for storage and luminal apolipoprotein B (apoB)-containing LDs in the ER lumen destined for VLDL secretion [122,127]. DGAT2 can also synthesize TAG using exogenous FAs and suppo

  2021-02-22

  

  Recently, Schenck et al. [25] identified an active site asparagine 222 (N222) residue in the Glycine max TyrAp/PDH (GmPDH1) that is responsible for its prephenate substrate specificity. Mutating the single N222 into an acidic residue (i.e. aspartate, D) in the legume TyrAp/PDH shifted from prephenat

  2021-02-22

  

  The discoidin domain receptors, DDR1 and DDR2, are receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) that are stimulated by collagen in the extracellular matrix (ECM). Unlike most other RTKs, they form ligand-independent stable dimers that are non-covalently linked. This ECM activation induces receptor phosphorylati

  Most data regarding fish CXCR4 functions have accumulated from work in zebrafish where a range of genetic tools and imaging technologies have been developed. As mentioned above, in teleost fish the two CXCR4s (CXCR4a and 4b) are assumed to interact with two ligands (CXCL12a and 12b) and this differe

  These cognitive deficits may suggest that cognitive therapy and pharmacotherapy for gambling behavior may ultimately wish to consider genotyping as a means of better targeting treatment approaches. If core cognitive deficits are shown consistently in certain subgroups of gamblers based on genotype,

  In this paper, we focused on Ewing sarcoma (ES), a rapidly growing, highly malignant bone tumor developing metastases in the vast majority of patients unless multiagent chemotherapy is applied [16]. ES is the second most frequent bone tumor in childhood and adolescence, and is characterized by the p

  A brief history of RBR E3s RBR E3s were originally defined based on sequence alignments that predicted a tripartite motif of three zinc (Zn)-binding domains: two RING domains (RING1 and RING2) connected via an in-between-RING (IBR) domain [28], [29]. The prediction together with initial observati

  Introduction O6-Methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) is a DNA-repair enzyme that specifically transfers alkyl adducts from the O6 position of guanine to the cysteine residue (Cys145) in its active site. In cancer cells, this ability of MGMT disrupts the cytotoxic actions of alkylating antic
