2020-05-29
MAPKs are a family of phosphorylating enzymes that orchestrate various cellular response in proliferation, apoptosis, inflammation, stress response, and energy metabolism [11]. There are at least four major members including extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1 and 2 (ERK1/2), p38 mitogen-activat

Direct coupling between DNA methyltransferase
2020-05-29
Direct coupling between DNA methyltransferase enzymes and posttranslational modifications on histone proteins has been observed in mammals. For example, DNMT3A recognizes unmodified H3 through an ATRX-DNMT3-DNMT3L (ADD) domain, and its activity is inhibited by methylation of H3 at K4 (Li et al., 201

DAG kinase activity is confined to specific cell compartments A number of reports demonstrating agonist-dependent translocation of DGKs to distinct membrane compartments suggest that DGK activity is restricted to localized DAG pools generated after activation of receptors. Perhaps the best eviden

2020-05-29
The focus of this review is on the diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT, EC 2.3.1.20) enzymes, DGAT1 and DGAT2, that catalyze the esterification of a fatty acyl moiety to a DAG molecule to produce TAG. These enzymes commit DAG to being stored as TAG rather than being diverted for the synthesis of ph

DAPK is involved in the p dependent apoptotic pathway
2020-05-29
DAPK-1 is involved in the p53 dependent apoptotic pathway and it is a mediator of γ-interferon induced apoptosis. DAPK-1 is also involved in other death signaling pathways (tumor necrosis factor-α, CD95 and transforming growth factor-β) and it blocks tumor metastasis in vivo. The loss of DAPK mRNA h

p is a tumor suppressor
2020-05-29
p16 is a tumor-suppressor gene that inhibits cyclin-dependent kinase 4 and 6 activities and arrests the TCS PIM-1 1 mg in the G1 phase. Aberrant methylation and mutation of p16/MTS1 in OSCC of patients was found in our previous study. Moreover, the frequency of hypermethylation of p16 from the prese

Moreover, the imbalance between pro and anti-inflammatory cytokine production is present in various types of diseases. The use of substances able to induce anti-inflammatory cytokines could represent an important advance in the therapeutic treatment of a range of diseases. In this context, medicinal

2020-05-29
Transduction of cellular signals by G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) is stringently regulated to prevent the deleterious effects of unrestrained GPCR signaling. The rapid termination of signaling mediated by agonist-occupied GPCRs is referred to as homologous desensitization and involves the foll

A series of monocarboxylated chalcones (e.g. compounds 7 and 8, Fig. 2A) was previously identified as good CysLT1 antagonists [20], and none of them exhibited CysLT2 antagonistic activities (Supplementary Table S1). This study was consistent with reported result that CysLT2 Myriocin was not sensiti

In countries such as China where there is a high commercial production of rice, the use of rice husk ash (RHA) as an alternative cementing material can become a great asset for environmental rehabilitation and address the difficult disposal issues associated with this agricultural waste [23]. RHA po
