  2020-01-30

  

  Immune modulation by steroid hormones is a rather new aspect of the research on endocrine interactions in lower vertebrates (Harris and Bird, 2000). In the classical view, steroids exert their effects by binding to specific intracellular receptors that function as ligand-activated transcriptional re

  2020-01-29

  

  In SLO-permeabilized human sperm, the AR elicited by calcium, persistently active Arf6 [41] and Rab3A, 8-pCPT-2′-O-Me-cAMP [8], diacylglycerol and a non-hydrolyzable analog [35], is sensitive to the PLC blocker U73122. Furthermore, 8-pCPT-2′-O-Me-cAMP elicits a calcium signal in non-permeabilized sp

  In this study we investigated the role 17-phenyl tinor (pt)-PGE2 on endothelial barrier function and the underlying molecular mechanism in HMVEC-Ls as well as in a murine model of LPS-induced acute pulmonary inflammation. We found that 17-pt-PGE2 concentration-dependently enhanced endothelial barrie

  Although 3DP technologies are convenient for users to manufacture devices automatically, the printing materials are inevitably limited by the manufacturers of 3D printers. Strategies are increasingly being developed to functionalize the raw printing materials or their printed devices with other phys

  2020-01-29

  

  Our research has demonstrated that the absolute bioavailability of oxymatrine, having a similar structure with OSC, was only 6.79±2.52%. About 50% of OSC was converted to its active metabolite SC in vivo; hence, the absolute bioavailability of OSC was speculated to be poor as well [24]. Understandin

• HOIP s ability to build linear Ub

  2020-01-29

  

  HOIP\'s ability to build linear Ub chains arises from a unique domain that follows directly after the RING2 domain, the linear ubiquitin chain-determining domain (LDD) (Fig. 1). Structures have revealed that the LDD is structurally integrated into RING2, creating a single RING2–LDD unit (Fig. 2D) [4

  2020-01-29

  

  Here we uncover a highly diverse superfamily of self-replicating MGEs, dubbed pipolins, which are present in three major bacterial phyla, as well as in mitochondria, and encode divergent PolB carrying TPR1 and TPR2 subdomains. Biochemical characterization of a representative enzyme encoded by a pipo

  2020-01-29

  

  Our data show a site-specific interaction of DDR2 with collagen II. This indicates that the DDRs recognise a particular sequence within collagen and not simply the collagenous triple helix per se. This common tertiary structure of all collagens is formed by three α chains, each with a repeating G-X-

• The crystal structure of the B subtilis Maf

  2020-01-29

  

  The crystal structure of the B. subtilis Maf (BSU28050) was published in 2000, and, to date, it represents the only experimental work with a purified Maf protein (Minasov et al., 2000). The structure revealed a structural fold similar to that found in ITPases and YjjX proteins, which are nucleotide

  2020-01-29

  

  A further quandary concerning rediscoveries arises in habitats modified and frequented by humans, where rediscovered species may occur through accidental or deliberate introductions (Metcalf et al., 2007) rather than having persisted despite adverse conditions. Confusion regarding origin could evoke

  2020-01-29

  

  In the intestine, absorbed cholesterol can either be esterified by ACAT2 (Soat2) and packed into chylomicrons, transported back to the intestinal lumen by ABCG5/ABCG8, or it can be transported into HDL by ABCA1. ACAT2 is confined to enterocytes and hepatocytes and esterifies cholesterol for intracel

  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

  2020-01-29

  

  CXCR5 is not only critical in the B cell lineage in FL. A high proportion of CXCR5-expressing follicular helper T cells (TFH) were observed in FL but not in closely related DLBCL [141] and further investigation revealed that FL regulatory T cells (Tregs) used a CXCL13-CXCR5 autocrine loop for positi

  In summary, we hypothesize that targeting the A1R–D1R heterotetramer with heteromer-selective drugs might improve safety and efficacy of the pharmacological therapy for RLS and other motor diseases, resulting in fewer side effects than classical drugs developed for targeting monomeric A1R or D1R.

  2020-01-29

  

  Cryptosporidium is a protist causing serious diarrhea in humans and other animals (Bouzid et al. 2013). In its mitosomes, the most reduced forms of mitochondria, it is assumed that the membrane potential is generated by a simple respiratory chain consisting of transhydrogenase, type II NADH dehydrog
