  Acknowledgements Introduction Anxiety and depression are major components of maintaining the cycle of addiction, and are responsible for the negative reinforcement of drug seeking behaviors (Sarnyai et al., 1995, Koob and Le Moal, 2008). Both rats and humans exhibit increased anxiety states du

  2020-12-17

  

  Besides the regulation of the stress responses, CRF and the urocortins have been implicated in drug addiction (Bruijnzeel and Gold, 2005, Sarnyai et al., 2001). For instance nicotine, the addictive substance of tobacco, can activate the HPA axis, just like any other stressor may do, although its imp

  Introduction The offspring of rodents emit vocalizations when isolated from their dam. The majority of vocalizations by rat pups are in the ultrasonic band frequency of 30–50 kHz (Insel et al., 1986). Maternal separation-induced ultrasonic vocalizations are believed to represent distress signals

  2020-12-17

  

  NPC1L1 expression is both tissue- and species-specific. Consistent with its function, NPC1L1 is mainly localized to the brush border membrane of enterocytes and the canalicular membrane of hepatocytes. NPC1L1, which is expressed in the liver of humans and rats but not mice, mediates cholesterol cety

  Introduction Angiotensin II (Ang II) and Endothelin 1 (ET-1) are potent vasoconstrictive peptides recognized as key players in many cardiovascular diseases [1]. Cardiac hypertrophy, ischemic arrhythmia, and stroke have been associated to an overstimulation of the angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) recepto

  2020-12-17

  

  The proliferation of CCA cell lines can be stimulated by estrogen and other growth factors (Alvaro et al., 2006; DeMorrow, 2009; Mancino et al., 2009). It has also been reported that estrogen positively modulates cholangiocyte proliferation, which is associated with cholangiopathies found in humans

  EphB4 appears to be a low-affinity receptor for rhEpo based on the biochemical data. The concentration of rhEpo used for the biological experiments (50 IU/ml) corresponds to 10–15 nM, which is 1% to 2% of the KD value (KD = 881 nM) for the binding of rhEpo to EphB4, as measured in the MST assay. The

  In this study, the ASTM C1260 and ASTM C1567 test methods were followed to conduct the ASR tests. Three mortar bars were prepared using three types of RHA (600-RHA, 150-RHA, and 44-RHA) and CFA. To prepare the mortar bars, the OPC was replaced by each type of RHA for 10% and 20%, respectively by wei

  2020-12-17

  

  As a transcription factor, HOXA9 regulates multiple target genes related to cell growth, including BRCA1 [34], BCL-2 [35], c-MYB [36], IGF1 [37], PIM1 [38] and so on. In addition, HOXA9 is a member of both activating and repressive transcriptional regulatory complexes, along with cofactor and collab

  The synthetic route chosen for the preparation of the substrates 18 is shown in Scheme 3. Commercially available 4-aminobenzyl alcohol 13 was found to be relatively unstable to storage and hence it was prepared immediately before use by reduction of the readily available and inexpensive 4-nitrobenzy

Evidence is strongest from research in epithelial ovarian cancer demonstrating that ET-1 stimulated ETA-mediated β-arrestin signalling leads to activation of the oncogenic mediator NF-κB [21]

  The cytoplasmic domain of classical cadherins is highly conserved and can interact with different cytosolic proteins. Typically this domain is associated with catenin family members, including p120 catenin, β-catenin, and α-catenin, which form a cadherin-catenin complex (Fig. 1). The catenin family
