  Introduction Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a daily concern in vascular surgery, as successful treatment is exclusively achieved by open or endovascular repair. Its prevalence is 2–11% among male smokers, and rupture the major complication, is associated with unacceptably high morbidity and m

  2020-06-29

  

  Previous studies in the Swiss Webster mouse (Rosengren et al., 1995) and the Sprague–Dawley rat (El Sisi et al., 1993) have shown that retinol pretreatment potentiates the hepatotoxicity of paracetamol. The current study is designed to investigate further this interaction in mice. To accomplish this

  EBV Infection Epstein–Barr virus (EBV, human herpesvirus 4) was discovered 50 years ago, when Epstein, Achong, and Barr used electron microscopy to identify viral particles in Burkitt\'s lymphoma cells. It belongs to the lymphocryptovirus (LCV) genus of the gammaherpesvirus subfamily (Fig. 1A). T

  Materials and methods Results Discussion Natural compounds and their derivatives have been investigated as candidates for the treatment of bone diseases and can also be the sources of nutraceutical agents and therapeutic agents [28]. Using peptides as therapeutic effects on bone-related dis

  In conclusion, the magnitude of the association between prenatal exposure to MeHg and child neuropsychological development appears to be modified by polymorphisms in CYP3A7 and CYP3A5 genes in some of the populations studied. These results provide some support for the hypothesis that CYP3A genes may

  Previous study showed that CXCR plays an important role in viral infection and that CXCR1, as an important molecule in CXCR, also plays important roles in viral pathogenesis [[39], [40], [41], [42]]. In mammals, CXCR1 plays an important role in resisting viral infection [43,44], and CXCR1 plays an i

  2020-06-28

  

  COMT expression, protein level and activity are down regulated by E2. Using estrogen receptor (ER) positive MCF-7 cells, Xie et al. demonstrated an E2 dose dependent (1, 10 and 100 nM) decrease in S-COMT 1.3 kb mRNA that was maximum after 48 h (Xie et al., 1999). A similar decrease was not observed

  2020-06-28

  

  PI3K is a lipid kinase and generates phosphatidylinositol-(3,4,5)-trisphosphate, which is a second messenger critical for the translocation of Akt to the cytoplasmic membrane. The phosphorylation of Ser473 Akt is important in the cell survival by regulating the eNOS among other targets (Dimmeler et

  2020-06-24

  

  Consistent with prior reports, this study also found the level of 11 cytokines (MIF, IL-1Ra, CTACK, M-CSF, Basic FGF, VCAM-1, SDF-1α, IL-8, IL-16, PDGF-β, and GRO-α) significantly decreased in the sera of adult HFMD patients in comparison with controls. MIF is a pro-inflammaory cytokine that is asso

  2020-06-24

  

  The cytoplasmic domain of classical cadherins is highly conserved and can interact with different cytosolic proteins. Typically this domain is associated with catenin family members, including p120 catenin, β-catenin, and α-catenin, which form a cadherin-catenin complex (Fig. 1). The catenin family

  2020-06-24

  

  Imatinib (STI-571) is a first-line tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) targeted at breakpoint cluster region-Abelson kinase (ABL) for the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) [26]. As a type II inhibitor, imatinib achieves significant selectivity by binding to an inactive DFG-out conformation (DF

  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 FK506 that were generated in absence of IL-23 or IL-1β lost EBI2 expression during differentia

  2020-06-24

  

  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

  2020-06-24

  

  Recently, Schenck et al. [25] identified an active site asparagine 222 (N222) residue in the Glycine max TyrAp/PDH (GmPDH1) that is responsible for its prephenate substrate specificity. Mutating the single N222 into an acidic residue (i.e. aspartate, D) in the legume TyrAp/PDH shifted from prephenat
