  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

  2021-01-26

  

  PGE2-EP4 activation has been found to attenuate the activation of microglia and to prevent lipid peroxidation and pro-inflammatory gene expression in a murine model of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced igf-1r inflammation [15]. Moreover, PGE2/EP4 signaling has elicited a protective function in reduc

  In contrast, T-bet downregulated the expression of Tfh functional molecules, CD40L, ICOS, and IL-21; accordingly, T-bet overexpression abrogated the helper function of IL-12-stimulated CD4+ T cells. Thus, T-bet seems more involved in the downregulation of the helper functions than in the differentia

  2021-01-26

  

  The COMT gene maps to chromosome 22q11.2 (Grossman et al., 1992) and has two protein isoforms. The differences between S-COMT and longer MB-COMT are in the N-termini, which use alternative translation initiation sites and promoters. These two isoforms display different affinity and capacity for COMT

  Materials and methods Results and discussion Iron (II)/2-oxoglutarate (2-OG)-dependent oxygenases [28], [29] catalyze oxidative reactions of a range of metabolic processes including the hydroxylation of l-proline and l-lysine residues during the post-translational modification of collagen. Mor

  2021-01-26

  

  The glycolytic pathway is a catabolic route that ends with the synthesis of pyruvate (Pyr). In Arabidopsis embryos, the conversion of phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) to Pyr, catalyzed by pyruvate kinase (PK), is mainly located in the plastids [10], [11]. The preceding reaction is catalyzed by enolase (ENO

  The Liver X Receptor-α and -β (LXRs, NR1H3 and NR1H2, respectively) are members of the nuclear receptor superfamily that play a central role in controlling cholesterol homeostasis [9], [10]. In macrophages, LXRs can decrease the cellular sterol burden by inducing expression of the cholesterol efflux

  Dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) is an excellent molecular target for this study because it has been and is currently studied by using different molecular modeling techniques [6], [7], [8], [9]. Kerrigan et al. have reported an interesting review about recent progress in molecular dynamics simulations

  Fermentation process for growth of E. coli BL2(DE3)/pBMS–P3Hcys was carried out in 25- and 380-L fermentors containing 15- and 250-L medium, respectively. Cell yield of about 100g/L (wet cells) was achieved by feeding glycerol and Hy-yest during fermentation. Typical fermentation parameters are show

  Since clinical studies mostly involved cases that used MPA, data from studies that examined other types of progestogens are very limited. While the WHI study examined the combination of conjugated equine estrogens plus MPA [1], the Million Women Study [2] that also demonstrated an increased risk of

  RNA-seq results also support the similarity between ESC- and YS-derived B-1 progenitors. Bmi1 expression, known as an important gene for self-renewal ability in stem cells, was reduced in ESC-derived B cells compared with YS-derived B cells, and Bmi1 overexpression improved the engraftment of ESC-de
