  Taking into account that: (a) PFOS inhibits CRF gene expression as well as CRF and corticosterone secretion (Pereiro et al., 2014); (b) CRF1r mediates the stimulation of the pituitary ACTH secretion by this neuropeptide (Rivier et al., 2003); (c) corticosterone regulates its own synthesis by a negat

  Acknowledgments Introduction Understanding the characteristics of the Amazonian Dark soils “Terras Pretas de Índio” (TPIs) is of ecological importance, because the TPI soils represent a residue-based model for tropical sustainable agriculture (Sombroek et al., 2003, Neves et al., 2003, Cohen-O

  2021-07-02

  

  We found that E2 and GEN each has mostly similar effects on recruitment of the epigenetic modulators to the MB-COMT distal promoter (summarized in Table 2). These effects are associated with increased promoter methylation and gene suppression of COMT. It is noted that the array of epigenetic modulat

  2021-07-02

  

  Evidence for interactions between the endothelin and the angiotensin system has also become plentiful. It has become clear that the two systems, in addition to acting independently, can act synergistically (Emori et al., 1989, Imai et al., 1992) as well as promote the peptide mRNA expression in endo

  Results and Discussion Conclusion What we have shown here is that highly specific antagonist can be a very useful tool, can mimic gene KO experiments or even further dissect receptor function. We just took ETA antagonist as an example and found that ETA mediates physiological closure of DA whi

• Determination of relative potency EC

  2021-07-02

  

  Determination of relative potency (EC50) by dose response assays in vitro is subject to the same sources of variability as determination of affinity, since the EC50 and Hill slope of the dose response curve are highly dependent on the binding of ligand to a competing receptor that may be present, an

  2021-07-02

  

  As expected, the 19-nortestosterone-derived progestins tested were moderate agonists of hAR (C), with EC50s ranging from 2 to 10nM, however all were less potent than the endogenous ligand DHT by at least a factor of 6, with relative potencies ranging from 0.0301 to 0.164. This is in agreement with p

  When women reach the menopause they experience a number of physical complaints such as hot flushes, vaginal dryness and mood changes [1]. Bone loss also becomes manifest at this time [1], [2], but women will often not suffer from back pain before a vertebral fracture occurs. Women who have had one

  Experimental Procedures Acknowledgments Bisphenol A (BPA) has been recognized as one of the most potent endocrine disruptors, functioning even at very low doses. Although it is anticipated that protease inhibitor cocktail receptor (ER) would mediate these effects of low-dose BPA, studies re

  Role of ERK signaling in preventive and therapeutic potential of flavonoids in neurodegenerative diseases ERK is one of the main pharmacological targets of natural phenolic compounds and contributes to several therapeutic approaches including anti-atherogenic, anti-cancer, anti-colitis, anti-arth

• The reduction of the calcium response

  2021-07-02

  

  The reduction of the calcium response to AVP could be also due to a PKA-mediated effect of desensitization of IP3R, as described in rat megakaryocytes [41]. Furthermore, PKA activation inhibits intracellular Ca release in mouse pancreatic acinar cells [42] or in rat cerebellum [43]. The phosphorylat

  2021-07-02

  

  Another enzyme class that has emerged as a potential alternative to P450s are the so-called ‘unspecific peroxygenases’ (UPOs). They also contain a heme but are extracellularly expressed fungal enzymes that are often more stable than P450 monooxygenases. Importantly, UPOs use H2O2 instead of O2 as th

  2021-07-02

  

  Several molecular differences between visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissue have been described. One of the most demarcating differences between adipose depots is the signature of developmental genes, including Hox, Shox, and T-box genes [12], [13]. Lineage tracing studies have revealed key devel

  2021-06-29

  

  CDK6 lacks DNA-binding domains and nuclear localization sequences, and therefore will probably be transported to the nucleus by a ‘piggy-back’ mechanism and needs to contact its specific sites indirectly through DNA-binding proteins. Besides NF-κB p65, a further candidate transcription factor is PAX
