  2019-07-23

  

  CYP450s are heme-containing monooxygenases constituting a conserved gene superfamily of heme-thiolate proteins, and are found in prokaryotes and eukaryotes (Martignoni et al., 2006). They play a key role in detoxification of endogenous (e.g., steroids) and exogenous compounds (e.g., drug, insecticid

  Next, we evaluated the therapeutic potential of compound () using the mouse model of collagen-induced arthritis (CIA model), which is the pathological model for RA. Consequently, oral once-daily dosing of 3 mg/kg reduced the overall progression of the clinical score, including inflammation and bone

  2019-07-23

  

  To respond to the need for QNAT, commercial assays have been developed on automated systems. The first reagents for CMV and EBV VLs in whole blood were Abbott RealTime kits on the m2000 SP/RT system (Abbott Molecular Inc, Des plaines, USA) (M2000) [4,5] and Artus QS-RGQ kits on the QIAsymphony RGQ s

  2019-07-23

  

  MNs can be obtained from iPSCs, using signaling molecules such as retinoic L-NMMA acetate (RA) and Sonic hedgehog (Shh) (Table S1).4, 5, 12, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29 These methods rely on developmental principles and require changing the combinations of signaling molecules at multiple steps, whic

  2019-07-23

  

  In addition to vasoconstrictor actions (acute effects), ET-1 exerts potent mitogenic actions on vascular smooth muscle cells and cardiac myocytes (chronic effects), hence causing vascular and cardiac hypertrophy [19,24,25]. These effects are mediated via stimulation of either ETA or ETB receptors, a

  Expression and Tissue Functions of DDRs The DDRs are widely expressed in different tissues, both during development and in adult organisms. DDR1 mRNA is found in many tissues in mice and humans, with high levels in brain, lung, kidney, spleen, and placenta (Di Marco et al., 1993, Johnson et al.,

  2019-07-23

  

  CYP3A4/5 and CYP2D6 are among the main drug-metabolizing enzymes in humans that are responsible for the metabolism of more than 50% of marketed drugs [19], [21]. Drugs metabolized by CYPs are prone to drug–drug interactions, thereby modifying their response [18], [32]. Metabolic inhibition is also i

  2019-07-23

  

  Nimodipine is an L-type calcium channel antagonist that reduces excessive calcium influx during pathological conditions, contributing to its neuroprotective properties (Zornow and Prough, 1996; Kobayashi and Mori, 1998). Autophagy can be induced by increased [Ca2+] (Rami et al., 2008). Nimodipine si

  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

  2019-07-22

  

  In cholesterol synthesis, HMG-CoA reductase is the rate limiting step in cholesterol biosynthesis. Statins or HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors are commonly used for management of hypercholesterolemia. The presence of an HMG-like moiety on these drugs allows them to competitively bind to the catalytic do

  On the other hand, although the cardiovascular effects of Epac have been investigated more intensely in recent years [31], there are hardly any studies that suggest or discard a participation of Epac in endothelium-dependent cAMP-induced relaxation. Only our previous results in rat Spautin-1 chemica

  High concentrations of 7kC may also arise from dietary intake of processed cholesterol-rich food, likely favoring or worsening inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) [5,13]. Furthermore, IBD has been associated with a dysregulation of colonic 11β-HSD expression, exhibiting increased 11β-HSD1 and decreased

  The two most important biological machineries controlling proteostasis, PQC, and degradation are autophagy and the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) (). Autophagy is a lysosome-dependent, tightly regulated catabolic process that degrades unwanted cell organelles and cytoplasmic constituents in lysos

  Diabetic retinopathy is a chronic inflammatory disease. Local inflammation plays a pivotal role in the pathological development and progression of this disease [24]. In addition to TNF-α, several other cytokines, chemokines, and other factors such as IL-1β, IL-6, and C-reactive protein have been ind
