  Introduction Cholesterol plays a pivotal role as a constituent of biological membranes and as a precursor for vitamins, hormones and bile acids. Accordingly, its production, distribution, and elimination must be tightly regulated at the cellular and organismal level. Accordingly, dysregulated chole

  2021-08-26

  

  Two in vitro reports using lung fibroblasts have shown that cell transmigration, using transwell migration experiments, through collagen I-coated inserts is mediated by DDR2 and the DDR2-associated signaling kinases JAK2 and ERK1/2, but not DDR1 [63] and that DDR2 regulates the adhesion of fibroblas

  2021-08-26

  

  Examination of Wnt signaling via, for example, complexes of frizzled (Fz) and lipoprotein-receptor-related protein (LRP) receptors has been hindered by difficulties in producing Wnt ligands due to their inherent hydrophobicity [20]. This bottleneck was recently bypassed by constructing highly solubl

  The importance of mitochondria as site of aerobic oxidation of metabolic fuels, such as FA, has been recognized for a long time. It has been observed that the number of mitochondria may vary in response to cellular metabolic requirements and hormonal environment (Gao et al., 2014). In order to susta

  2021-08-26

  

  Following mutagenesis of the glucarpidase gene of Pseudomonas sp. strain RS-16 [30], approximately 73% of the clones retained enzyme activity, as indicated by the clear zones and yellow precipitate surrounding their colonies. However, there were very few that had ‘halos’ around colonies that were da

  2021-08-26

  

  Introduction Ewing’s sarcoma (ES) is a mesenchymal tumor characterized by small, round, blue cells, and is poorly differentiated and highly malignant [1]. While ES typically arises in bone and soft tissue, rare primary extraosseous manifestations of ES have been reported throughout the body [2].

  2021-08-26

  

  Increased leukocyte trafficking and infiltration of the vascular wall are thought to provide a key stimulus for SMC activation and subsequent neointima formation in response to vascular injury [19], [20]. The essential trigger regulating the accumulation of leukocytes in the vessel wall is the upreg

  2021-08-26

  

  Because of the lack of sequence, current knowledge on the cellular regulation of CoA-IT is scarce. However, recent work has suggested an interesting new role for CoA-IT in regulating the extent of the AA mobilization response in primed macrophages. Bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a poor trigge

  Acknowledgements Introduction Three structurally related fungal metabolites have been isolated from chloroform extracts of submerged rice cultures of Aspergillus terreus 23-1 from stored unhulled rice in Taiwan; these were named territrems A–C to indicate their biological origin (A. terreus) a

  2021-08-25

  

  Immunomodulation effects of certain oxysterols were previously shown to depend on activation of oxysterol-binding liver X receptors (LXRs). Recent work from our labs as well as from others has shown additional receptors linking oxysterols and immunity. For example, we found that 7α,25-dihydroxychole

  We found that Th17 cells, derived either from in vivo immunization or in vitro polarization under pathogenic conditions (in presence of IL-23 and/or IL-1β) expressed high levels of EBI2. In contrast, Th17 IC261 that were generated in absence of IL-23 or IL-1β lost EBI2 expression during differentia

  Introduction Concern has been raised over free estrogens (estrone [E1], 17ß-estradiol [E2] and 17α-ethynylestradiol [EE2] particularly) in the past decade due to their endocrine disrupting effects on environmental biota [1], [2]. Estrogens are excreted by vertebrates primarily as sulfate or glucu

  The Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) is an important farmed fish with an XX/XY sex-determining system.

  Mammalian DGKs: current knowledge Despite our understanding of prokaryotic DGKs, our limited understanding of the structure of mammalian DGKs is a major gap in our knowledge. Importantly, major differences exist between prokaryotic and mammalian enzymes often revealing the fact that structural fe

  The two isoforms LDH-A and LDH-B catalyze the same reaction, conversion of pyruvate to lactate at the end of glycolysis. LDH-A is expressed in the liver. Humans with a hereditary deficiency of the A or B LDH isoforms are free of symptoms, except for muscle rigidity and myoglobinuria following strenu
