  2020-07-23

  

  Nrf2 and HO-1 are key factors in the regulation of oxidative stress in the body. Research has shown that KLF2 can activate Nrf2 and HO-1 [14]. To investigate the mechanisms by which KLF2 regulates eNOS uncoupling and oxidative stress, Nrf2 was inhibited or HO-1 was knocked down in KLF2 overexpressin

  Collagens as new drivers of zebrafish tissue regeneration Contrary to mammals, zebrafish possess very high regeneration capacities and thereby represent a versatile model to study tissue and organ regeneration. Adult fish can fully reconstruct their brain, spinal cord, retina, kidney, liver, panc

  Estrogen treatment in postmenopausal women requires combination with a progestogen in order to prevent endometrial stimulation. This is not necessary, however, with tibolone as progestogenic activity is associated with its Δ4-metabolite that is formed in the liver, as well as locally in the endometr

  2020-07-23

  

  Tropical theileriosis is caused by the apicomplexan parasite Theileria annulata which is transmitted by a tick vector from the genus Hyalomma in cattle (Echebli et al., 2014, Li et al., 2014). Theileria parasites invade the leukocytes by sporozoites secreted from the vector, schizonts mature into me

  2020-07-23

  

  Mulan is a mitochondrial protein and is exclusively localized in the OMM with its RING domain facing the cytosol [14]. Based on this topology, Mulan can provide a link between molecular events in the mitochondria and cytoplasm. Mulan has been implicated in various processes including: mitochondrial

  2020-07-22

  

  Oxysterols modulate the immune responses and as such could be effectors of the tumor environment: 25-OHC impairs IgA production in B-lymphocytes [26] and induces the secretion of the proinflammatory and angiogenic cytokine IL-8 [27], [28]. Of note, oxysterols (in particular 7α,25-OHC) are potent che

  2020-07-22

  

  Targeting both PARP-1 and DHODH for anti-cancer therapy would certainly be beneficial as these enzymes share a common role in the DNA replication and repair mechanisms which are involved in the hyper-proliferation of cancer cells. Since benzimidazole-containing compounds have been reported to show g

  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

  2020-07-22

  

  Spinal cord injury leads to an extensive inflammatory cascade on spinal cord and the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines can sensitize neurons, activating signaling pathways that will result in thermal and mechanical hypersensitivity [39]. In this regard, Guo and collaborators (2014) demonstrated

  Considering these reports, and with the aim of further investigating the mechanism by which the cAMP-Epac/PKA pathway activates eNOS, we have performed imaging experiments evaluating the effect of drugs that increase cAMP or modify its signalling pathways (PKA or Epac activators and inhibitors) on b

  Physiological roles for EPAC isoforms: vascular function The effects of cAMP on limiting vascular endothelial cell (VEC) inflammation and vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) proliferation have been well documented 36, 37, 38. However, recent work has demonstrated that several key effects of cAMP i

  Conclusion In this review, we have discussed how inhibition of the CK2/CDK5 signaling axis protects WM only when inhibited before ischemia, while inhibition of the CK2/AKT/GSK3β signaling axis protects WM either before or after an ischemic injury in young, aging, and old WM (Fig. 3).
