  Interestingly, increased level of both circulating ET-1 and urinary excretion of ET-1 have been observed in patients treated with nephrotoxic immunosuppressive agents as cyclosporine A and tacrolimus (Slowinski et al., 2002). Other nephrotoxic agents, such as cisplatin, also increase urinary excreti

  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

  APC/C Uses a Dynamic Cullin–RING Mechanism to Elongate Polyubiquitin Chains Human APC/C generates Lys11-linked poly-Ub chains through an entirely different mechanism, via the distinctive E2 enzyme, UBE2S 30, 31, 32. Although APC2 and APC11 are necessary and sufficient to activate UBE2S, the mecha

  Currently, much effort has been made to design and synthesize ThDP analogs (such as ThTDP, ThTTDP, and triazole-ThDP in Fig. 2)8, 9, 10, 11, 12 as PDHc E1 inhibitors. These ThDP analog inhibitors, such as ThTDP and ThTTDP, can block the ThDP binding site, and exhibit significantly stronger binding a

  Contributors Acknowledgements Introduction Pemphigus disorders are characterized by autoantibodies binding to desmosomes between epidermal cells, resulting in the loss of cell to cell adhesion and blister formation. In pemphigus foliaceus, autoantibodies predominantly bind to desmoglein 1,

  A limitation of this study is the between-study heterogeneity of the datasets analyzed. To address this heterogeneity, we used a random-effects model in our analysis. Also, only 2 of the databases provided information on sex, and as a result, the sex-specific analyses were performed with a smaller c

  There are a few visible DNA staining methods, which use dyes such as methylene blue, brilliant cresyl blue [7], crystal violet [8], Nile blue [9], [10] and ethyl violet [11]. However, although safe, these methods require long staining times, lack sensitivity and are not specific for nucleic acids.

  DGKε is not the only DGK isoform that has been associated with p53. It has been shown that DGKζ binds to p53 and modulates its activity in both the cytoplasm and the nucleus [39]. In the cytosol DGKζ promotes the degradation of p53 through the ubiquitin-proteosome system [39], also a likely mechanis

  To compare glucose metabolism via oxidative phosphorylation to that via glycolysis, a bioenergetics plot was constructed (Fig. 3A). In most cells, a decrease in one bioenergetics pathway is compensated by an increase in the other. However, following NAT1 deletion, there was a decrease in both oxidat

  During the past decade, it became increasingly clear that the affinity and efficacy of small agonists acting on the orthosteric binding site of a GPCR can be modulated by ligands that bind to a topographically distinct (allosteric) binding site on the same GPCR molecule 33, 39, 40, 41, 42. This allo

  While SCF E3 ligase activity was reconstituted with recombinant proteins two decades ago, the ability to probe APC/C was limited until recently because of its behemoth size. Human APC/C is a 1.2-MDa assembly comprised of 19 core subunits (one each of nine different APC subunits, and two each of five

  Programmed cellular death or apoptosis is a process genetically controlled that plays an important role in cellular homeostasis, being an important defense mechanism to remove cells that have been infected, damaged or mutated (Smith and Smith, 2012, Wlodkowic et al., 2011). Nevertheless, apoptosis s

  More and more studies are focused on the function role of EPAC1 in cancer proliferation, apoptosis and migration.
