  2021-02-02

  

  The elastase-induced injury model has been shown to produce airspace enlargement, and increases in lung volume and compliance that are similar to those observed in human patients (Hantos et al., 2008, Hamakawa et al., 2011). Thus, this model, which has been used to study emphysema, should be adequat

  2021-02-02

  

  Molecular characterization of LEI/L-DNase II LEI, like most serpins, is a metastable protein and its anti-protease activity is related to its “stressed to relaxed transition”. So that, the inhibition of elastase by the well described suicide mechanism generates the cleaved form of LEI (see Padron

  2021-02-02

  

  The hepatic cytochrome P450 (CYP450) superfamily is essential for metabolising foreign chemicals, fatty acids, vitamins, hormones and other compounds and consists of 18 subfamilies (Uno et al., 2012). The number of discovered CYP genes is increasing as a result of intense work with CYP450 gene struc

  Recent results from our group found that SPMs, not only play a part in terminating inflammation, but also have a physiological role in conjunctival goblet citco to maintain ocular surface health in the absence of disease. Amongst the SPMs that are effective in the conjunctiva are resolvin D1 (RvD1),

  2021-02-02

  

  In general, cellular senescence is considered a programmed response to stress that can be activated by oxidative stress, irradiation or action of substances or drugs. These stressors cause DNA damage and, through the action of specific proteins (p53 and p21), lead to cell senescence (di Fagagna, 200

  2021-02-02

  

  BRCC36 is the catalytic subunit responsible for the majority of K63-Ub-specific DUB activity in the cytoplasm and in the nucleus as part of two distinct macromolecular assemblies characterized by the presence of either of the MPN– pseudo DUB proteins KIAA0157 or Abraxas (Cooper et al., 2009, Dong et

  Are the hydrogens removed simultaneously or one by one? — Δ1-KSTDs can catalyze the exchange of alkali-labile tritium or deuterium atoms at the C2 Methoxyresorufin synthesis of their substrates, even when enzyme turnover was prevented by the absence of an electron acceptor for the oxidative half-rea

  Our previous studies have demonstrated that the DDR2 discoidin domain fully contains the binding site(s) for the fibrillar collagens I and II (Leitinger, 2003, Leitinger et al., 2004). The binding site for collagen I was mapped to three spatially adjacent surface loops within the DDR2 discoidin doma

  CYP450s are heme-containing monooxygenases constituting a conserved gene superfamily of heme-thiolate proteins, and are found in prokaryotes and eukaryotes (Martignoni et al., 2006). They play a key role in detoxification of endogenous (e.g., steroids) and exogenous compounds (e.g., drug, insecticid

  We have previously characterized the leucine-rich NESs located within the zinc-binding domains of mucosal high risk HPV16 E7 (76IRTLEDLLM84) and low risk HPV11 E7 (76IRQLQDLLL84) mediating their nuclear export in a CRM1 dependent manner (Knapp et al., 2009, McKee et al., 2013). The zinc-binding dom

  WRTs AI-82/1, AI-9-1 and AI-60 showed the same ST as was published by Dingle et al. in RTS 103, 013 and 097 (Dingle et al., 2011). WRTs 015 and 002 were assigned as WRTs 015-like and 002-like due to slight changes in their CE-ribotyping profiles; however, the ST of WRT 002-like (ST8) was identical t

  The first group of tests was intended to evaluate the performance of the GUI initialization. We evaluated the times obtained for different initial GUI models with 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, and 20 components as shown to the user. These sizes were chosen since GUIs (developed within our COTS-based architectures

  On the other hand, although the cardiovascular effects of Epac have been investigated more intensely in recent years [31], there are hardly any studies that suggest or discard a participation of Epac in endothelium-dependent cAMP-induced relaxation. Only our previous results in rat Amyloid β-peptide

  Introduction Prostaglandins are important local mediators in a host of reproductive processes including ovulation, fertilization, embryonic development, luteal regression, and parturition (Ushikubi et al., 2000). Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) is among the more versatile prostanoids, and its effects app

  PI3K is a lipid kinase and generates phosphatidylinositol-(3,4,5)-trisphosphate, which is a second messenger critical for the translocation of Akt to the cytoplasmic membrane. The phosphorylation of Ser473 Akt is important in the cell survival by regulating the eNOS among other targets (Dimmeler et
