  Next, our exploration shifted to modifications at the lateral chain of the benzoquinone nucleus (SAR 2). Considering that the CK2 inhibitory activity is favoured by the presence of the -Ph-4-NO2 (SAR 1), the subsequent analogues were investigated with this moiety retained. The influence of the side

  Besides having a remarkable progestogenic effect, an additional characteristic of DRSP is its strong antimineralocorticoid effect and antiandrogenic action [11]. DRSP is characterized by an antimineralocorticoid effect that is stronger when compared to progesterone. The decreasing synthesis of prog

  The nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily of ligand regulated transcription factors has proven to be a rich source of targets for the development of therapeutics for a wide range of human diseases. The NR3B subfamily known as the estrogen-related receptor (ERRα[NR3B1], ERRβ[NR3B2] and ERRγ[NR3B3]) regul

  2020-10-16

  

  Anaesthetized mice of one eNOS-KO strain showed a paradoxical decrease in blood pressure (BP) in response to i.p. administration of the NOS-inhibitor L-NA suggesting a role for non-endothelial isoforms of NOS in maintaining BP [1]. Alternatively, diminution in the activity of the renin-angiotensin s

  2020-10-16

  

  Since the number of peptides hydrolized by PEP is quite large, it is not easy to relate the increase of enzymatic activity with the altered changes of a concrete peptide. However, it is noticeable that imbalances of several natural substrates of PEP [6], such as angiotensins, bradykinin, vasopressin

  2020-10-16

  

  Because sex steroids and growth hormone play an important role in the development and maintenance of hepatic CYP450 enzyme expression and ER expression, it is possible that exposure to endocrine active agents during gestation and perinatally could alter expression of these proteins. Therefore, these

  Pattern separation is a process that takes place in the hippocampus and more specifically in the dentate gyrus (DG) and Cornu Ammonis region 3 (CA3) (Morris, Churchwell, Kesner, & Gilbert, 2012). The main source of input in the hippocampus is derived from the enthorinal cortex (EC) that mainly proje

  The small molecule β-d-mannuronic AZ 10417808 (M2000), patented (DE-102016113018.4), has been tested as an anti-inflammatory and a novel immunosuppressive agent in various experimental models such as animal models of immune complex glomerulonephritis, nephrotic syndrome, multiple sclerosis and rheu

  Multi-hierarchical structure of collagen Protein structure is the foundation of protein functions and properties. It is generally accepted that the protein has biological function only when it has tertiary structure or above. Among the identified 28 types of collagen, most is known about type I c

  Arsenic is an endocrine disruptor with estrogenic activity. Further study has shown that arsenic exposure can significantly increase the expression of estrogen receptor-related genes, steroid metabolism-related enzymes and lung cancer-related genes in the lung tissues of female mice on the occurrenc

  Importantly, a crucial role of transcription factor SP1 in mediating the anti-lung cancer effect of XJD was found in this study. Our results suggested that the inhibition of SP1 was required to mediate the inhibitory effect of XJD on the growth of NSCLC cells. Nuclear transcription factors SP1 is as

  The present study showed evidence that the AT1 and the ETA receptors were not expressed near or on the plasma membrane as monomers, but also as possibly constitutive dimers and tetramers. For both receptors, the proportion of monomers, dimers and tetramers were unaffected by their respective agonist

  2020-10-13

  

  The redox sensitive transcription factor NF-κB is reported to play a crucial role in the COPD pathogenesis via up regulating the expression of several cytokines, chemokines, growth factors, and adhesion molecules [71]. Incidentally, we and others have shown that PARP-1 modulates the NF-κB activation
