  Ultrasound is an acoustic wave with a frequency >20 kHz that needs a medium to propagate [20]. Accompanied by the spread of an ultrasonic wave, a series of alternating cycles of compression and rarefaction emerge in the liquid medium. During the rarefaction cycle, microbubbles are formed because of

  Adding more pieces to the puzzle, using a human-to-animal crossover study, blood taken from healthy volunteers that underwent exercise was used as a dialysate to perfuse a rabbit heart in a Langendorff model of MI [62]. Unprecedentedly, dialysate of plasma from exercised humans reduced infarct size

  2021-03-15

  

  Our approach, including the characterization of histone modifications in scarce NK subsets, allowed us to identify super-enhancers, which associate with genes endowing a given cell type with its unique identity (Hnisz et al., 2013). Especially intriguing were SEs with distinct activities in NK subse

  2021-03-15

  

  The Inhibitor of APoptosis (IAP) proteins were first identified as gene products of baculovirus that inhibited apoptosis of infected insect blasticidin synthesis (Clem et al., 1991, Crook et al., 1993). Subsequently, the mammalian IAP family was identified (Rothe et al., 1995, Uren et al., 1996). A

  2021-03-15

  

  The E1 enzyme is the apex for downstream enzymatic cascades and signaling pathways mediated by Ub and Ub-like proteins (Ubls) (Pickart, 2001). Studying characteristics of E1 and its catalytic functions may throw light to the role of ubiquitination in cell development. All known eukaryotic E1 are mon

  2021-03-15

  

  The folate pathway plays an essential role in cell survival by generating 5, 10-methylene tetrahydrofolate as a one-carbon donor for the synthesis of deoxythymidine monophosphate (dTMP), purines, methionine and histidine. Disruption of this pathway leads to the critical deficiency of these key molec

  Our current understanding of nucleotide metabolism in has made it possible to identify numerous proteins which serve essential roles in the life cycle of the parasite. One such protein is thymidylate synthase-dihydrofolate reductase (TS-DHFR), a bifunctional enzyme which is necessary for the produc

  Introduction Analyses of genomic alterations in cancer have identified epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) as one of the most potent “oncogenic driver” kinases that is present in many epithelial tumors including endometrial, breast, prostate, skin, esophagus, lung, stomach, colorectal, and re

  Introduction Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are critically involved in the development and progression of human cancers and are therefore useful targets for anti-cancer therapies [1]. The Eph receptors represent the largest subfamily of receptor protein kinases and interact with ligands called

  The role of Epac in the regulation of intracellular Ca homeostasis and contractility is still matter of debate. In rat adult cardiomyocytes, acute Epac stimulation decreased the amplitude of Ca transients [6], [9], [10] with either no changes [6] or increments [9] in cell shortening, suggesting an e

  Introduction PGE2 is a major mediator present at sites of inflammation [1]. It is well established that PGE2 contributes to the localized and systemic symptoms of inflammation. A key study by Portanova et al. [2] demonstrated that anti-PGE2 Z-Ligustilide australia were able to reverse the swelling

  In order to further understand the biological significance of cell-collagen X interactions, we have examined the possibilities of involvement of other collagen receptors in cell binding to collagen X. The present study demonstrates that collagen X is a ligand for DDR2. DDR2 has been observed to bind
