  2024-11-14

  

  The gene SRD5A2 encodes the 5-α-reductase enzyme, which converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone. Although dihydrotestosterone levels are considerably lower than testosterone, dihydrotestosterone has a five-fold stronger binding capacity to the androgen receptor and, thereby, a considerably mo

  2024-11-14

  

  The role of DHT in early teleost embryogenesis is not entirely clear or established, however additional studies that treat fish embryos to DHT or to specific srd5a inhibitors at critical stages of development (i.e. prior to sex differentiation) will shed light on the early functions of this androgen

• The first description of autophagy as a tumour suppression

  2024-11-14

  

  The first description of autophagy as a tumour suppression process arises from the observation that the initial step regulatory gene, Atg6/BECN1, was monoallelically lost in 40% to 75% of human prostate, breast, and ovarian cancers [31]. However, while BECN1 heterozygous mutant mice develop, with lo

• The identification of novel kinase

  2024-11-14

  

  The identification of novel kinase inhibitor scaffolds is highly desirable in order to develop selective kinase inhibitors. Small-molecule inhibitors of Interleukin-2-inducible T-cell kinase (Itk) that are based on the 3-aminopyridin-2-one fragment 1 have been reported. Despite derivatisation of 1 y

  2024-11-14

  

  In the current study, we showed that known inhibitors of the F-ATPase and ionophores affect the growth of P. gingivalis and its plasma membrane ATPase, suggesting that the membrane ATPase can be a target for anti-periodontitis agents. We also identified stilbenoids that strongly inhibit the growth o

  Acknowledgments This work was supported by the Swiss National Science Foundation. 15-Lipoxygenase 1 (15-LOX-1) is a nonheme, iron-containing enzyme predominantly expressed in reticulocytes, eosinophils, macrophages, mast cells, and bronchial epithelial cells . 15-LOX-1 is a key enzyme involved

  On the other hand, there were only a few cases that expressed DA2R in our study. Additionally, in the cases whose ACTH-secreting pituitary adenomas expressed DA2R, the ratio of positive staining VU 0364439 was very low. This suggests that dopamine agonists may be less effective in canine Cushing's

  2024-11-14

  

  Coincident with APJ receptor, several cell types in the body can synthesize apelin protein. For example, the highest apelin concentrations in the body have been found in the rat central nervous system, pituitary gland, lungs, cardiac muscle, gastrointestinal tract and mammary glands, with lower valu

  2024-11-14

  

  In recent years, the ‘higher lipophilicity’-thus-‘better performance’ tenet, derived from the polar paradox theory applied to micro-structured media, was challenged by novel and unexpected experimental results. In particular, the synthesis of many complete series of fatty CCG 203971 esters of natur

  2024-11-14

  

  A key function of the reference AFST would be to detect fungal resistance, i.e. to determine which antifungal agents are likely to be clinically inactive [2]. To this end, the epidemiological cut-off value, defined as ‘the upper end of the wild-type (WT) or beginning of the non-wild-type (NWT) MIC d

  Compounds , and with potent ALR2 inhibitory activity were also tested for their inhibition ability against ALR1, as shown in . They all showed low activity with inhibition percentages no more than 45% at the concentration of 10μM, demonstrating good selectivity for ALR2. To evaluate the antioxida

  2024-11-13

  

  Ketogenic diets are more effective in promoting weight loss than conventional caloric restriction [26] however, their effect on hepatic glucose and lipid metabolism remains inconclusive. Blood glucose homeostasis is tightly regulated. In both mice and humans consuming KD, baseline blood glucose decr

  2024-11-13

  

  The inflammatory cytokine IL-6 is an additional factor that has been hypothesized to contribute to epinephrine-mediated repression of drug detoxifying proteins such as CYP3A4 (Aninat et al., 2008). Indeed, this CYP is well-known to be repressed by IL-6 (Dickmann et al., 2011) and epinephrine has pre

  2024-11-13

  

  5-HT modulates cortical and hippocampal pyramidal cell function in a very complex manner, since most 5-HT receptor subtypes (excitatory as well as inhibitory) are expressed on pyramidal synthase as well as GABAergic interneurons that exert inhibitory control over pyramidal cells (Leiser et al., 201

  ACK1 signaling partners ACK1 interacts with and tyrosine phosphorylates many cellular proteins regulating critical cellular processes [11]. While ACK1 shares common intracellular effectors such as AKT with other signaling pathways, it imparts specificity to signaling by phosphorylating effectors
