  2020-07-16

  

  Ultrasound is an acoustic wave with a frequency >20 kHz that needs a medium to propagate [20]. Accompanied by the spread of an ultrasonic wave, a series of alternating cycles of compression and rarefaction emerge in the liquid medium. During the rarefaction cycle, microbubbles are formed because of

  Material and methods Results Discussion A. fumigatus utilizes several virulence factors that facilitate its establishment in human hosts. Among these factors, the best known are hydrolytic enzymes such as proteases and phospholipases, toxins, melanine and catalases that neutralize the react

  In conclusion, we demonstrated phenoconversion of CYP3A in stable kidney transplant recipients, and that higher plasma indoxyl sulfate concentrations in these subjects may be involved in the phenomenon. The present findings suggest that dose adjustment of drugs metabolized by CYP3A may be needed in

  2020-07-16

  

  Programmed cell death via apoptosis is associated with a series of morphological and biochemical characteristics, including cell shrinkage, the rapid increase of intracellular calcium, nuclear condensation, DNA fragmentation and the formation of apoptotic bodies. Known as a shared feature of most ap

  2020-07-16

  

  CYP3A4/5 and CYP2D6 are among the main drug-metabolizing enzymes in humans that are responsible for the metabolism of more than 50% of marketed drugs [19], [21]. Drugs metabolized by CYPs are prone to drug–drug interactions, thereby modifying their response [18], [32]. Metabolic inhibition is also i

  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

  Synthetic peptides have proven highly valuable in replicating the characteristics of collagen and in defining the sites on collagen essential for binding and studying protein–collagen interactions. There are, however, disadvantages to synthetic collagen-like peptides. First, the thermal stability of

  VHb expression in recombinant E. coli expressing P4H improved Hyp production, presumably by enhancing oxygen transfer. VHb expression contributed to improving growth and extending the period of exponential growth in both shaker flask culture and bioreactor fermentation. A similar phenomenon was als

  It would be very useful if unphosphorylated CK1s could be prepared using an E. coli expression system without the troublesome in vitro phosphatase treatment. So far, it has been shown that coexpressed λPPase, a Mn2+-dependent protein phosphatase that can dephosphorylate phospho-Ser/Thr/Tyr [20,21],

  Prostaglandins (PGs), in particular PGE2 and PGF2α, play pivotal roles in human parturition by stimulating cervical ripening, myometrial contraction and fetal membrane rupture (Challis et al., 1997). In human pregnancy, the amnion is the principle source of PGE2 (Duchesne et al., 1978). In the amnio

  Downregulation of tumor suppressors is a major factor that leads to tumorigenesis. Phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN), a common tumor suppressor, the Dipraglurant receptor of which is often downregulated or even absent in the majority of human cancers, functions as a pho

  Likewise, the conserved cysteine in the E2 protein is the only residue shown to be essential for the transfer of Ub/Ubl from E2 to the HECT ligases (Dye and Schulman, 2007, Wu et al., 2003). However, all other terminal Ub/Ubl transfer reactions involving E2 enzymes suggest a critical role for the ta

  To study the role of DNA–PK in the response to replication arrest, we used the DNA replication inhibitor aphidicolin (APH). APH, a mycotoxin isolated from Cephalosporium aphidicola, inhibits DNA replication by interacting with the replicating DNA polymerase α (pol α). APH specifically inhibits the a

  As the principal receptors for regulating the inflammatory process in mammals, CXCR1 and CXCR2 have an important role in regulating the trafficking of phagocytes such as neutrophils, monocytes and macrophages (Viola and Luster, 2008). The evidence gathered to date from fish studies are in agreement
