  Wu et al. explored the anti-inflammatory mechanisms by which osthole 35 acted on HepG2 cells cultured in a differentiated medium from cultured 3T3-L1 preadipocyte cells. HepG2 cells, a human liver cell line, were treated with various concentrations of osthole 35 in differentiated media from cultured

• Astrocytes play a key role

  2021-04-07

  

  Astrocytes play a key role in the brain, as these cells are involved in fluid, ion, pH, and neurotransmitter homeostasis, synapse function, energy and metabolism and blood-brain barrier (BBB) maintenance (Sofroniew and Vinters, 2010). PA is able to activate different damaging responses in astrocytes

• Another interesting finding regarding substrate selectivity

  2021-04-06

  

  Another interesting finding regarding substrate selectivity of iPLA2-VIA in whole cellular systems stems from the observation that some of the major species hydrolyzed by the enzyme contain a 16:1 fatty XL413 hydrochloride synthesis at the sn-2 position [57,119], raising the possibility that iPLA2-

  2021-04-06

  

  In mammals, neutrophil elastase is a trypsin-like serine protease stored in the azurophilic granules of naïve neutrophils [15], [16]. The catalytic activity of neutrophil elastase relies on a His57–Asp102–Ser195 triad (chymotrypsin numbering system) that functions by transfer of electrons from the c

  2021-04-06

  

  Collagen type 1 is the most abundant extracellular matrix (ECM) protein found in vertebrates. Collagen exerts its role as a load bearing structure and regulator of cell function, only after it has assembled into fibrils., The equilibrium between the synthesis and degradation of collagen fibrils and

  2021-04-06

  

  Here, we discuss implications of several major families of RING-type E3 ubiquitin ligases (MDM, Cullin, GRAIL, TRAF, TRIM) as targets in inflammation and immunity, and provide insights into potential small molecule interventions to mediate the cellular responses (summarized in Table 1). We briefly c

  Results Discussion C4 is related to another VACV protein, C16, and the C-terminal domain of C16 also inhibits DNA-PK-mediated DNA sensing via the same mechanism and to a similar level as C4. Moreover, mutagenesis of C16 at the CYC residues equivalent to those in C4 abrogated the C16-Ku interac

  Saito et al. reported that diabetic bone has lower lysyl oxidase-derived enzymatic cross-links in collagen compared to non-diabetic bone, based on studies performed in a rat model [9]. Lysyl oxidase plays a pivotal role in bone development and function, as revealed in classical studies [10], [11]. L

  2021-04-06

  

  For radiochemotherapy, it is well known that mitotic cell death and apoptosis present the major cell death modes. More recently, autophagy-dependent cell death has been described to occur upon radiochemotherapy (Daido et al., 2005, Song et al., 2017). This form of regulated cell death depends on com

  2021-04-06

  

  AMPK is a master regulator of metabolic homeostasis, its broad spectrum of metabolic activities makes it an attractive target for treatment of metabolic and related disorders including Diabetes and Obesity (Madhavi et al., 2018). It controls lipid metabolism through its target genes PPAR-γ, C/EBP-α

  It was recently reported that a functional single nucleotide polymorphism (rs75932628) within Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid 7026 2 (TREM2) is associated with AD (Guerreiro et al., 2013). Homozygous loss of function mutations in TREM2 are also associated with an autosomal recessive form o

  Coumarins also known as benzopyran-2-ones are a family of nature-occurring lactones first isolated from Tonka beans in 1820. They are an important class of oxygen containing heterocycles widely found in nature, so much so that they have been routinely employed as herbal remedies since early days. Ov

  Furthermore, software engineering practices are important for addressing productivity problems in scientific software. Even though the speed of the hardware is rapidly increasing, the additional complexity makes it more difficult for scientists to be productive developers. According to Faulk et al.,

  Nevertheless, two problems exist in BGCFC in practice. The first one is that time complexity of the ID assignment algorithm presented in Section 3.1 is O(N!), which means a factorial time complexity. Because it obtains the consecutive IDs by enumerating all permutations of ID 0 to N−1, the total num
