2021-06-24
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

Here, we examined whether Intracellular ER may mediate Cd-induced ovarian cancer proliferation. To determine this relationship, we used ICI 182,780 as a general inhibitor of ERα and ERβ. The results suggest a metalloestrogenic effect of Cd in ovarian cancer cell lines. Inconsistency with our results

Primary renal PNET was first reported by Seemayer et al in 1975. The possible etiology of rPNET is based on the theory of neural cell intussusception in the kidney during development that initiates the tumorigenesis. rPNET most commonly affects young adults, with a mean age of 30.4 years and male pr

2021-06-24
Introduction Ewing sarcomas/primitive neuroectodermal tumors (ES/PNETs) are relatively infrequent but the second most common sarcoma of the bone next to osteosarcoma. Nearly 80% of them occur in persons younger than 20years. Most of them arise from the bone, but 10 to 20% of them from soft tissue.

2021-06-24
The transcription factor CREB has been extensively studied for its role in hippocampus-dependent learning and memory (West et al., 2002, Lonze and Ginty, 2002). Previous research has demonstrated that the phosphorylation of CREB at Ser133, performed by the ERK1/2 signaling pathway, initiates a casca

Here, two labs that helped characterize these two pathways have worked together to further test whether these apparently parallel pathways from β-AR to CaMKII-RyR might be related in series. Much of the work leading to the Epac pathway involved measurement of Ca sparks as an index of SR Ca leak, oft

Enolase as a plasminogen receptor
2021-06-24
Enolase, as a plasminogen receptor and activator localized on the surface of several helminths, can interact with the host fibrinolytic system (Yang et al., 2010, Du et al., 2009, de la Torre-Escudero et al., 2010). The enzyme is also one of excretory/secretory (ES) products in some helminths, such

Numerous studies have investigated the contribution of N-cadherin to metastasis and tumorigenesis. The overexpression of N-cadherin has been shown to enhance tumor invasion and motility in multiple cancer models [25,40,48]. Transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGFβ1) is a strong EMT inducer. In fact,

Introduction Rotavirus (RV), a member of Reoviridae family, is a non-enveloped virus which has a double-stranded RNA genome of 11 segments surrounded by three concentric protein layers. It has been reported to cause estimated 25% of moderate-to-severe illnesses (Kotloff et al., 2013) and 30% of tot

Collectively, the results presented here provide new insights into ligand binding, clustering, spatial distribution, and phosphorylation of DDR1b and DDR2 in response to soluble collagen I. As depicted in the cartoon of Scheme 1, we postulate a model in which the spatial distribution and assembly of

Cytokines are small secreted proteins that mediate and regulate immunity, inflammation, and hematopoiesis. They are produced in response to an immune stimulus. Cytokines regulate the intensity and duration of the immune response by stimulating or inhibiting the activation, proliferation, and/or diff

One specific TCS JNK 6o region that may be involved in the reduction of anxiety after anti-SVG-30 treatment is the lateral septum which contains a high density of CRF2 receptors [5], [44]. The lateral septum often exhibits increased immediate early gene expression in response to stress and anxiety

To determine the time course of ZD2767P+CPG2 DNA–DNA interstrand cross-link formation, HT29 and LS174T colorectal tumour purchase were exposed to the drug for 10, 30 or 60 min. The levels of DNA interstrand cross-links in HT29 or LS174T cells did not increase with exposure time, suggesting that ZD2

Our results on the acute effects of THC on resting state recommended site function are in line with previous neuroimaging findings. Increased perfusion after THC administration in insular and prefrontal regions has previously been reported in smaller samples (Mathew et al., 1997, Mathew et al., 200

T helper (Th) sphingosine 1 phosphate receptor play a central role in activation of immune system against infectious agents through secretion of lymphokines or cytokines. African trypanosomes target the Th cells and alter their activation, possibly for their own survival and perpetuity (Namangala,
