  2021-02-09

  

  Introduction As a strong analgesic, morphine is often used to treat acute and chronic pain. However, morphine is a substance with low lipid solubility that slowly enters the nerve tissue through the blood–brain barrier and produces neurotoxicity. Morphine-induced neurotoxicity can be produced aft

  Conflicts of interest Introduction G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), form the largest human membrane protein family, with 800 members overall. Many druggable targets for treatment of common diseases involve GPCRs that mediate therapeutic effects of 34% of all marketed drugs (Hauser, Attwood

  2021-02-09

  

  It is interesting to note that oligomerization of recombinant DDR1 ECD primarily occurred when the protein was incubated with collagen in solution and to a much lesser extent when collagen was pre-immobilized on a surface as reported in our earlier studies (Agarwal et al., 2007). We believe that pr

  Pre-clinical combination studies using CSF-1/CSF-1R inhibitors In preclinical models, the CSF-1R pathway can be blocked by using either small molecule kinase inhibitors (GW2580 [30], PLX3397 [31], Ki20227 [32], BLZ945 [33] and CYC11645 [34]), antibody-mediated inhibition of CSF-1 using 5A1 [35] o

  An interesting observation pertinent to the immunology of pregnancy comes from a study by Kruse et al., they found that recurrent miscarriage patients with higher serum progesterone levels had lower Th1/Th2 cytokine ratios suggesting that progesterone levels modulate cytokine production patterns. Pr

  Early developments Historically, the advent of SMEPT can be traced to the 1980′s, where the first example of localized prodrug conversion was achieved using a judiciously placed enzyme – in order to achieve a localized feed of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). Immobilization of E. coli-derived cytosine deam

  2021-02-09

  

  More than thirty enzymes with PLA2 activity have been described and, based on sequence similarities, they are currently classified in 16 groups, each containing several sub-groups [16]. However, based on biochemical features these enzymes are frequently grouped into six major families: secreted phos

  2021-02-09

  

  It is known that cigarette smoke increases the oxidative burden in the lungs of mice with emphysema, which leads to oxidative stress [[34], [35], [36]]. However, in addition to cigarette smoke, studies have shown that endogenous oxidative stress is associated with proteolytic gtpase in several mous

  RING dimerization RING-type domains are found in many different structural contexts. While many exist as single-chain BIX 02189 australia (Fig. 3A), a notable feature of RING-type E3s is their tendency to form homodimers and heterodimers (Fig. 3C–F). Homodimeric RING-type E3s include cIAP, RNF4,

  2021-02-09

  

  MicroRNA (miRNA) is a class of highly conserved, non-coding small molecules containing 19–25 nucleotides. miRNAs are involved in the regulation of genes associated with cancer development and progression and therefore can act as oncogenes, by contributing to tumor formation,17, 18 or as tumor suppre

  A second advance came with the discovery that conformationally-flexible benzamide analogs having an N-phenylpiperazine moiety possessed good affinity and modest selectivity for D3 versus D2 receptors [3,[14], [15], [16]]. This observation spawned a significant effort by medicinal chemists to develop

  A recent study revealed that in human glioma cells, DNA-PKcs interacted with the regulatory γ subunit of AMPK and positively regulated AMPK phosphorylation and activation under glucose-deprived conditions. This suggested that DNA-PK is an important regulator of AMPK activation in response to energy

  In glioblastoma, methylation of pMGMT is predictive of the efficacy of temozolomide with an increased survival [22], [23], [24], [25]. As in glioblastoma [24], [26], [27], [28], pMGMT methylation assessed by pyrosequencing (with immunochemistry, IHC) is the most effective and reproducible technique

  One of the therapeutic proteins used in cancer therapy is glucarpidase, also known as Carboxypeptidase G2, CPG2, which originates from the bacterium Variovorax paradoxus (old name, Pseudomonas sp. strain RS-16). It has no mammalian equivalent (Thompson et al., 1994; Kamlage, 1994) and is a zinc-depe
