  2022-07-01

  

  Failure of antioxidant defenses to remove exogenous ROS produced by redox cycling chemicals either by being inhibited by those compounds or overwhelmed by an excess ROS, will disrupt the balance between antioxidant/prooxidant system within the organisms leading to oxidative damage (Livingstone, 2003

  2022-07-01

  

  Chronic exposure of cells to cytotoxic drugs can result in the selection of multiple phenotypic and genetic changes. Thus, the use of MCF7/VP cells, which were selected for resistance to VP-16, was potentially problematic. However, a thorough characterization of MCF7/VP cells demonstrated that they

  2022-07-01

  

  To characterize the basic functions of GPR84 in phagocytes, we have utilized the receptor selective antagonist GLPG1205 (a small selective antagonist of GPR84 developed by Galapagos NV [14]) together with ZQ16 (2-(hexylthio) pyrimidine-4,6-diol), a potent GPR84 selective agonist identified in a high

  2022-07-01

  

  To verify DNA glycosylase/AP lyase activity we have employed a simple and efficient method to investigate based on fluorescein-labeled duplex oligonucleotides read on an automated sequencer (Allgayer et al., 2013, Lopes et al., 2007, Lopes et al., 2008). This approach using purified CpMutY proteins

  2022-07-01

  

  Rare mutations can impair the molecular function of GR and alter tissue sensitivity to GCs in humans, resulting in primary generalized GC resistance (PGGR) and hypersensitivity (PGGH) [14]. Familial and sporadic PGGR, or Chrousos Syndrome, is characterized by general and partial insensitivity of tis

  Genetic disruption or pharmacologic inhibition of the hepatic glucagon pathway has invariably been shown to increase pancreatic α cell mass. This has been observed in glucagon receptor (GCGR) knockout (Gcgr−/−) mice (Gelling et al., 2003), glucagon knockout mice (Hayashi et al., 2009), prohormone co

  2022-07-01

  

  Here, we examined whether complete ablation of GIP production could reduce weight gain in the absence of the adipocyte hormone leptin, a condition that results in extreme hyperphagia, obesity, hyperinsulinemia, and insulin resistance, in both mice [24] and humans [25]. We found that Lepob/ob mice be

  Piroxicam belongs to the oxicam family of NSAIDs and a special attention has been drawn to this drug because of its multifunctional potential [5], [27], [28]. Chemically, piroxicam (4-hydroxy-2-methyl-N-2-pyrimidyl-2H-1,2-benzothiazine-3-carboxyamide) is an enolic estriol with a size comparable to

  Results and discussion CATALYST software allows automatic pharmacophore construction by using a collection of molecules with activities ranging over a number of orders of magnitude. In addition, CATALYST pharmacophores (hypotheses) explain the variability of bioactivity with respect to the geomet

  2022-06-30

  

  Mitochondrial is the main source for ROS and ATP generation, and the loss of mitochondrial membrane potential is involved in the alteration of mitochondrial metabolism and mitochondrial failure-induced cell death [33,34]. In this study, we showed that upregulated ZNF32 sustained mitochondrial membra

  Acknowledgments Introduction Stress plays a key role in the etiology and/or exacerbation of major depressive disorder characterized by loss of energy, feelings of hopelessness and anhedonia [1]. Ample evidence clearly suggests that endocannabinoids (eCBs) participate in stress-associated neurona

  Here we employ a genetic approach to examine the potential interaction of Gli3 and Ezh2 with respect to anteroposterior limb bud polarity. Loss of Ezh2 in a Gli3 mutant background leads to synergistic loss of anterior identity, although the double mutant phenotype more closely resembles that of Ezh2

  To date, the crystal structures of HIV-1 IN complexed with ligands and related proteins could help us in studying the interactions between the inhibitors and IN.

  When studying the potential of HATi for the treatment of inflammatory lung diseases, investigating lung tissue specific effects may be particularly relevant since local administration of small molecule inhibitors in lung tissue is possible and is already applied for inhaled glucocorticoids in the tr
