  Introduction Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are critically involved in the development and progression of human cancers and are therefore useful targets for anti-cancer therapies [1]. The Eph receptors represent the largest subfamily of receptor protein kinases and interact with ligands called

  At one time, the biological effects of cAMP were thought to be mediated exclusively by Protein Kinase A (PKA). Consistent with this, PKA inhibitors have been shown to reverse the effects of cAMP-elevating agents on VSMC proliferation [5]. However, we recently reported that cAMP-mediated inhibition o

  Conventional aromatic radiofluorination via nucleophilic substitution requires electron-withdrawing activating group(s) at the ortho or para position to achieve good radiolabeling yield. In the case of CJ-042794 (), the phenoxy substitution para to the fluoro group is considered an electro-donating

  Conclusion The past few years have witnessed substantial progress in understanding the structural mechanisms of substrate recognition and the reactions catalyzed by the O-GlcNAc-cycling enzymes, but more work remains. In particular, future research will be needed to establish how OGT and OGA inte

  2021-06-17

  

  ACAT1 may act as a dimer of dimer [38]. Within each dimer, it may contain two identical sterol substrate sites (designated as site S), and one or two sterol activator site(s) (designated as site A). Site S preferentially binds pregnenolone (PREG); it can also bind a variety of sterols that contain 3

  2021-06-16

  

  Introduction DNA ligation is required during DNA replication and to complete almost all DNA repair events. In human cells, the DNA ligases encoded by three LIG genes are responsible for joining interruptions in the phosphodiester backbone [1]. These enzymes have distinct but overlapping functions

  Besides degrading cholesterol, the cholesterol degradation pathway also offers a route to obtain useful starting materials for the production of steroid drugs and hormones. Indeed, steroids are among the most marketed pharmaceuticals with about 300 approved steroid drugs [15] and a worldwide market

  Consistent with previous simulations on the DFG-Asp-out/-in interconversion of Abl kinase, we only observe the DFG flip with protonated Asp747 (Shan et al., 2009). We showed previously that the pKa for the DFG-Asp in Abl is elevated at 6.5. Further “constant pH” simulations whereby protonation event

  The presence of H+-PPases in parasitic protists raises the question of the physiological role of these proteins. So far, they had been extensively characterized mainly in higher plants, and some prokaryotes [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [16], [20]. A common feature to all these organisms is tha

  The study reported here had the primary goal to compare the methylation of HPV late genes with methylation of the DAPK promoter, and with histological or cytological diagnoses among high-risk patients that were referred to a colposcopy clinic based on abnormal cervical cytology. Based on the literat

  Functionally, all members of the IL-12 family have been annotated along major inflammatory signaling axes but their roles have often weighed on opposing sides of the immunological balance. For instance, IL-12 and IL-23 are classified as pro-inflammatory cytokines [10] as opposed to the rather protec

  Elevated production of cysLTs in Irinotecan and rhinitis in general and aspirin-sensitive disease in particular10, 11, 26, 27 has been implicated in causing epithelial cell activation and excessive mucus secretion, which characterize these diseases.2, 28 It is of particular interest, therefore, that

  Employing distinct genetic and pharmacological approaches, Divakaruni et al. now demonstrate that macrophages still acquire their IL-4-elicited phenotype in the absence of CPT1a (considered the main isoform in leukocytes) or CPT2, and highlight that the increased LC-FAO in M(IL-4) cells is less cruc

  Application of the CPH model relies on the assumption that the hazard ratio of two observations is constant over time [2]. This enables us to infer the rate of risk of the treatment. For example, in the study of patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) [5], the hazard ratio of a group of

  Outcome of COX-2 overexpression Although a causal role for COX-2 has been proposed, mechanisms by which COX-2 function contributes to the pathogenesis of hyperplastic disease are not well defined. To examine if there is any correlation between COX-2 and p53 protein levels, Kumagai et al. [15] rec
