  Interestingly, anti-inflammatory actions for sPLA2-V were also described in mice a few years ago in a model of autoimmune complex mediated arthritis [148]. A novel mechanism was delineated, whereby sPLA2-V promotes phagocytosis of immune complexes by macrophages to ameliorate inflammation in autoimm

  2020-04-14

  

  Introduction Angiotensin II (Ang II) and Endothelin 1 (ET-1) are potent vasoconstrictive peptides recognized as key players in many cardiovascular diseases [1]. Cardiac hypertrophy, ischemic arrhythmia, and stroke have been associated to an overstimulation of the angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) recepto

  Results Discussion In this study, we investigated the role of EP4 on invasion and invadopodia in breast cancer cells. Our results demonstrate that EP4 activation promotes invadopodia-driven ECM degradation, in turn facilitating future intravasation and metastasis of breast cancer Tempol (Glig

  To further define the importance of CYP3A for OSC metabolism in vivo, a strong CYP3A inhibitor ketoconazole was used to test whether CYP3A would affect its metabolism. As expected, the biotransformation of OSC to SC was significantly decreased by ketoconazole at all three substrate concentrations. H

  Future directions The proposed membrane topology model of DGAT1 has only three TMDs, with the N-terminus oriented toward the cytosol and the C-terminus in the ER lumen. The catalytic activity is exclusively on the luminal side of the ER membrane. The second and third TM domains are only about 10

  We hypothesized that the atopic phenotype may be partially influenced by an altered binding and/or signalling due to the amino-acid substitution in the receptor protein. The principal aim of this study was to investigate the signalling mechanisms of the variants CysLT1-G300S and CysLT1-I206S induced

  Since free testosterone diffuses into a target organ [1], a remarkable increase in free testosterone in plasma is expected to enhance androgen response in target organs including the prostate. In fact, the results of the present study showed testosterone and DHT levels, and mRNA expression levels of

  Interestingly, ASV-30 infusion in the dRN of saline pre-treated rats had no effect on anxiety-like behaviors. This result may be due to the saline pre-treated group exhibiting relatively low levels of anxiety-like behaviors (when compared to saline pre-treated rat of the first experiment that were n

  Materials and methods Results Discussion In the past decade, GWAS have attempted to identify genetic variants that confer risk for many human diseases, whose inherited components remain unexplained (Manolio et al., 2009). In a few cases risk variants identified by GWAS have paved the way fo

  Adding MPA or NETA we found no impact on the estradiol-induced downregulation of serum-stimulated endothelin synthesis in vitro [40]. Progesterone was also able to inhibit the angiotensin II-induced increase in endothelin production [41]. Several clinical studies on the effect of oral or transdermal

  Introduction The COMT gene is located on chromosomal band 22q11.2, extends over 28 kb, contains six exons, and encodes for catechol-O-methyl-transferase (Weinshilboum and Raymond, 1977; Grossman et al., 1992; Lundström et al., 1995; Bearden et al., 2005). This enzyme plays a major role in regulatio

  Although it is believed that CYP induction is regulated in humans in principle in the same fashion as in animals, some species differences in CYP3A enzymes induction were observed. Rifampicin is known to be a potent inducer of CYP3A4 in human hepatocytes, whereas pregnenolone-16α-carbonitrile (PCN)

  Obviously, there are some limitations in our study; due to sample constraints, we had to focus our efforts on one specific T cell epitope from one candidate autoantigen. Optimally, we could have studied several different peptides in parallel. Additionally, all RA patients included in the study have
