  2019-09-03

  

  In humans, individual differences in prefrontal dopamine are partially caused by the Val158Met single-nucleotide polymorphism on the catechol-O-methyltransferase gene (COMT). This gene controls activity of the COMT enzyme, which degrades extracellular catecholamines including dopamine. The Val varia

  2019-09-03

  

  In frame exon 41 skipping of COL6A3 has been suspected to be responsible for isolated dystonia in several human kindreds without muscular defects [94]. In order to validate their hypothesis, the authors used zebrafish to selectively knock down several exons in col6a3 and found a negative impact on m

  Many studies have shown that curcumin delays the progression of atherosclerosis in different atherosclerotic animal models [18], [19], [20], [37] and the risk of atherosclerosis in human studies [15], [38], [39]. Curcumin also has many properties that contribute to combat atherosclerosis, such as an

  2019-09-03

  

  Agonist binding ETA activation is promoted by binding of the endogenous peptidergic agonists to their orthosteric binding site on the receptor. ET1 and ET2 (Trp6-Leu7-ET1) bind with equal high affinity to ETA, whereas the third endogenous isopeptide ET3 (Thr2-Phe4-Thr5-Tyr6-Lys7-Tyr14-ET1) binds

  Initially, studies of GPCRs predominantly assessed the signalling pathways downstream of receptors on the cell surface. There is now an understanding that GPCRs can localize to and signal from various intracellular compartments, such as the nucleus (reviewed in [40]). These intracellular pools of re

  In this report, we established mouse models suitable for human retinal cell transplantation by introducing phosphodiesterase 6B (Pde6b) mutant allele from retinal degeneration (rd) mouse models into NOG background. Pde6b (rd1) and Pde6b (rd10) mice are well-studied and frequently used animal models

  2019-09-03

  

  SS is a high-grade malignant soft tissue sarcoma accounting for 5%–10% of soft tissue sarcomas. After RMS, SS is the most common sarcoma in children, adolescents and young adults [9]. SS originates primarily in the lower (62%) and upper (21%) extremities but may occur at any anatomic site [9], [10].

  2019-09-03

  

  EP1–4 receptors belong to the family of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR). Trafficking events such as externalization, internalization, recycling and degradation dynamically regulate GPCR cell surface density. A fast-rate of internalization and degradation reduces GPCR surface density to desensitize

  PGE2-EP4 activation has been found to attenuate the activation of microglia and to prevent lipid peroxidation and pro-inflammatory gene expression in a murine model of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced Octreotide acetate inflammation [15]. Moreover, PGE2/EP4 signaling has elicited a protective funct

  2019-09-03

  

  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

  An important role for the precursor molecule of the main EBI2 ligand, 25-OHC, in the inhibition of inflammation was recently shown. 25-OHC was demonstrated to inhibit inflammasome induction in mouse macrophages [28]. Inflammasome assemblies are the sites of caspase 1 activation and lead to the gener

  In this study we have explored a functional role of the oxysterol/EBI2 system in this process. In 2011 we and others reported the discovery of oxysterols as ligands for EBI2 [6], [7]. Oxysterols are metabolites generated by hydroxylation of cholesterol and have been linked to a variety of fundamenta

  Recent studies have also uncovered additional roles for E2 enzymes and E2~Ub conjugates in modulating the activity of deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs), such as OTUB1 (Juang et al., 2012, Wiener et al., 2013, Wiener et al., 2012). Interestingly, OTUB1 has also been shown to associate and modulate the
