2020-01-25
Introduction The COMT gene is located on chromosomal band 22q11.2, extends over 28 kb, contains six exons, and encodes for catechol-O-methyl-transferase (Weinshilboum and Raymond, 1977; Grossman et al., 1992; Lundström et al., 1995; Bearden et al., 2005). This enzyme plays a major role in regulatio

2020-01-25
EP1–4 receptors belong to the family of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR). Trafficking events such as externalization, internalization, recycling and degradation dynamically regulate GPCR cell surface density. A fast-rate of internalization and degradation reduces GPCR surface density to desensitize

2020-01-25
The attachment of ubiquitin to RTKs, such as EGFR, mediates efficient delivery through the endosome-lysosome system for proteolysis. In this way, RTK degradation enables cessation of signal transduction. A recent siRNA screen identified a number of USPs that can significantly modulate EGFR levels an

Taken together, these assays demonstrate that SUMOD positioning is essential for all E3 ligases but dispensable for E2 and S*E2 sumoylation reactions. Thus, we propose SUMOD positioning as a key criterion to describe the enzymatic function of SUMO E3 ligases that distinguishes them from other enhanc

Extracellular uridine can be transported across the cell membrane to enter the nucleotide salvage pathway. A colon cancer cell line supplemented with uridine was capable of growing normally in the presence of 1 μM brequinar (Peters et al., 1992). The supplemented uridine may be transported into the

2020-01-25
Endothelins (ETs) are peptides expressed in both the peripheral and the central nervous systems, which can contribute to sensory changes seen in animal models of inflammatory, cancer and neuropathic pain [10], [11]. All three mammalian isoforms (ET-1, ET-2 and ET-3) activate specific G protein-coupl

Introduction Glucose is the major carbon source in most organisms. Cancer 1186 in particular require a steady source of energy to maintain growth and proliferation, and preferentially use glycolysis for their energy supply even under aerobic conditions. Glucose uptake in mammals is mainly mediated

Our study revealed elevated basal Akt phosphorylation in diet-induced obesity, the effect of which was reversed by ETAKO. Activation of Akt promotes cardiac hypertrophy via a number of cellular mechanisms including activation of its downstream targets such as mTOR and GSK3β [45, 46]. Short-term acti

7α,25-dihydroxycholesterol (7α,25-OHC) was recently identified by classic analytical methods as a high-affinity ligand for EBI2 (Hannedouche et al., 2011; Liu et al., 2011). 7α,25-OHC was previously identified as an intermediate in the alternate pathway of hepatic bile Amiloride HCl dihydrate synthe

Significance Our understanding of the ubiquitin biology has been rapidly expanding. The role of the ubiquitin system in the pathogenesis of numerous disease states has increased the interest in finding new strategies to pharmacologically interfere with the enzymes responsible of the ubiquitinatio

Crystallographic and NMR-based analyses have revealed that RINGs and U-boxes have a common mode of interaction with E2s (Fig. 2A). The key structural elements are two loop-like regions, which, in the case of RINGs, coordinate Zn. The loops surround a shallow groove formed by the central α-helix. Tog

CM-AVM and VOGM are thought to be two distinct disorders, with CM-AVM characterized by atypical CMs, with or without AVM in variable body parts, while VOGM is a type of cerebral AVM [16]. The fact that VOGM is infrequently reported as the AVM in CM-AVM patients, and CMs are quite often identified in

However, with regard to the involvement of PEP in neoplastic processes, few studies and restricted to a very limited number of different tumors have been carried out [4], [18], [19]. Therefore, in order to ascertain the possible role of this enzyme in pathological proliferative tissues, in the prese

Concluding remarks Some of the clinical trials of putative neutral competitive ERAs have been less successful than anticipated 6, 8, 11. This might be because of underestimation of the complexity of the molecular pharmacology of ETA. To resolve this, it will be necessary to define the signaling m

Baicalein (5,6,7- trihydroxyflavone) was first isolated from the roots of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi (Lamiaceae family), a medicinal plant with diverse therapeutic implications; antibacterial, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory properties. It has been found that baicalein benefits neuroinflammatio
