  The present in vitro pharmacological experiments revealed that the cholinergic up-regulation of VEGF expression in neurons and astrocytes was mainly mediated by nicotinic AChR and muscarinic AChR, respectively. In addition, neuronal VEGF expression was elevated by endogenous ACh in a manner that was

  5ARIs in the prevention of prostate cancer Prostate cancer continues to be a leading cause of male deaths worldwide. In 2009, it was estimated there would be 192,280 new cases of prostate cancer with a predicted 27,360 deaths [25]. Because androgens, and specifically DHT, play a large role in bot

  Conclusion Conflicts of interest Introduction RNA interference is a specific post-transcriptional gene silencing mechanism within a cell via the transfection of microRNAs (miRNA), exogenous small interfering RNAs (siRNA) or small hairpin RNAs (shRNA) [1–3]. Transfection of shRNA can be done

  Crystal structure ACLY protein is a homotetramer of four identical subunits [9]. Each polypeptide chain contains 1101 amino-acid residues [10]. The crystal structure of full-length ACLY protein is yet unresolved. However, Sun et al. recently succeeded in crystallizing chymotrypsin-truncated human

  Introduction In addition to ATP production, an important role of mitochondria in the pancreatic beta cell is anaplerosis, which is the net synthesis of citric StemRegenin 1 cycle intermediates that are exported to the cytosol where they are converted to numerous other metabolites that stimulate

  There are however, concerns of potential side-effects that should also be taken into account. Even though some studies pointed towards a potentially greater radiosensitising effect in p53-deficient tumours, ATM inhibition radiosensitises ABT 702 dihydrochloride in general, which raises the concern

• Autocrine regulations of several adipokines

  2024-02-19

  

  Autocrine regulations of several adipokines (e.g., leptin and resistin) on adipocytes have been reported (Karastergiou and Mohamed-Ali, 2010, Ye et al., 2010). Several lines of evidence have shown that apelin influences adipocyte functions, such as, lipolysis and glucose uptake (Dray et al., 2008, Y

  The results of our in vivo experiments provide promising evidence that the apelin/APLNR axis is implicated in CCA growth and that targeting this axis with a receptor specific antagonist may help develop effective, tumor directed therapies. Not only do we show decreased proliferation and angiogenesis

  AP-1 activity is increased by MAP kinase stimulation in different cell types (Whitmarsh and Davis, 1996), while MKP-1, the enzyme that catalyzes the dephosphorylation and inactivation of MAP kinases in the nucleus, inhibits AP-1 (Rössler et al., 2008, Rössler and Thiel, 2009, Mayer et al., 2011, Thi

  In 2008, a working group exposed 12-month-old transgenic mice (mutation for human amyloid precursor protein expression) and their non-transgenic littermates to isoflurane and halothane for 120min per day for five days. It was concluded that in the transgenic mouse there was overload of amyloid prote

  It is now well established that the cumulative exposure to endogenous estrogens throughout a woman's life, mainly due to her reproductive history, has an impact on the risk of hormone-dependent breast cancer (Lambertini et al., 2016). Prolonged exposure to estrogens in the case of early age at menar

  The A2b action occurs in conditions where high concentrations of adenosine is generated, so its blockage does not interfere with other physiological processes mediated by adenosine and others AR [105]. Furthermore the A3 receptor was shown to have pro-apoptotic effects on tumor lines of breast, lung

  Viral manipulation of host factors to oppose anti-viral autophagy To escape or manipulate autophagy, some viruses developed strategies that are based on the recruitment of host-cell endogenous factors. The non-enveloped double-stranded DNA virus adenovirus is rapidly endocytosed after attachment.

  Aurora kinases are a conserved family of serine/threonine kinases that are important for the transition through mitosis and amplification and overexpression of Aurora kinases have been implicated in Tylosin phosphate and transformation. Aurora B is located at the centromere and controls aspects of k
