  2024-11-18

  

  Bioactive peptides contain 2–20 amino acids with possible bioactivities including antihypertensive, antioxidant, antimicrobial, anticancer, and opioid activity [9], [10], [11]. There has been a great interest in antihypertensive peptides for their efficiency in lowering blood pressure. The antihyper

  Identification of the kinase that phosphorylates P450c17 The first Ser/Thr kinase that phosphorylates P450c17 was identified only recently. Of the 518 kinases in the human ‘kinome’ 278 are Ser/Thr kinases (Manning et al., 2002), but microarrays identified only 145 Ser/Thr kinases in human NCI-H29

  Matrix metalloprotease inhibitors are increasingly available and tested for other indications in clinical trials. The present study suggests that either ADAM10 or TACE inhibition alone will not maximally restore leukocyte Axl function. We found that lower doses of ADAM10/TACE inhibitors exhibit simi

  Apelin is a bioactive peptide and endogenous ligand for the APJ receptor (APLNR), a member of the G protein coupled receptor family that shares a similar sequence as the angiotensin type-1 receptor (AT1) [5]. Early studies demonstrated that the apelin/APLNR receptor axis plays a significant role in

  In 1989, a missense mutation at codon 102 of the PRNP gene was first reported to be associated with GSS and, in 1991, the same mutation was also found in affected members of the “H” family (Hsiao et al., 1989; Kretzschmar et al., 1991). By 1995, the pedigree of the “H” family included 221 family mem

  The sequential behavioral approach used in the present study reinforced the involvement of the BDNF/TRKB system in the effect of losartan. In mice with dampened BDNF expression, losartan was no longer able to exert antidepressant-like effects. Similar to what was observed after losartan treatment, t

  With wide-spread use of corticosteroids to combat inflammation and allergies, even children are susceptible to corticosteroid-induced muscle wasting. Although non-steroidal SGRMs that spare muscle and bone, but have significant anti-inflammatory effects, have been preclinically developed and tested,

  2024-11-15

  

  Introduction The burden of cardiovascular disease (CVD) is undisputed, accounting for approximately a third of global deaths (17.5 million people in 2012) (WHO, 2012). Atherosclerosis leads to the development of coronary heart disease (CHD) which accounts for more than 40% of these deaths (WHO, 201

  Aβ has been reported to decrease insulin receptors and impair insulin signaling in neurons, preventing phosphorylation of Akt and glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK-3β), downstream of insulin signaling, and to increase phosphorylation of tau protein causing neurofibrillary tangles (Tokutake et al., 20

  Linagliptin is a recently approved dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor and widely considered as first-line treatment for patients with type 2 diabetes. DPP-4 is responsible for the inactivation of incretin hormones, such as glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1). GLP-1 is released by the intestine aft

  Conflict of interest Introduction Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the major cause of tumor-related morbidity and mortality worldwide. Poor prognosis and consequences of its metastatic spread make CRC the second most common cause of cancer-related deaths in western countries [1]. Apart from o

  Spectroscopic techniques are powerful biophysical tools used in the study of biomolecular structures, including those of proteins. UV–Vis am680 spectroscopy makes use of absorption property of the protein peptide backbone at around 218 nm, and aromatic amino acid residues primarily at around 280 nm

  Introduction Psychostimulant abuse and addiction remain a societal problem in the United States. The latest statistics from the National Survey on Drug Use and Health indicate that slightly less than one million people over the age of 12 report having a cocaine use disorder (NSDUH, 2016).

  It is reported that Adiponectin is able to suppress NF-κB pathway, and Bcr-Abl fusion oncoprotein in CML activates NF-κB by stimulating its nuclear translocation and also by enhancing its transactivation function [25], [26]. Therefore, it is tempting to hypothesize that NF-κB pathway might be involv
