  CTGF is an established YAP/TAZ target gene which plays a central role in tissue remodeling. Downregulation of CTGF mediates collagen loss in chronologically-aged human skin whereas persistent activation of CTGF can result in excessive deposition of collagen and fibrotic disorders [63].

  2021-10-09

  

  HDAC enzymes oppose the effects of HATs by reversing lysine acetylation, an action that restores the positive charge of the lysine thus stabilizing the local chromatin structure. By removing acetyl groups from ε-amino lysines of proteins, HDACs not only alter transcription, but also promote either t

  Unfortunately, the approved drugs suffer from failure in many cases [5,6]. Several mutations occur in the binding site of NS3/4A protease, which affect drug binding and cause drug resistance [13]. It is a big challenge and needs more efforts to be done. This is the reason why research is still conce

  Recently, anti-tumor or antiviral strategies using RNAi for both gene silencing and innate-receptor activation were designed; one mechanism of these strategies is activating the intracellular retinoic acid–inducible gene I protein (RIG-I). 5′-Triphosphate RNA (3p-small interfering RNA [siRNA]) is th

  It is difficult, however, to assure that observed alterations of pro-oxidant/antioxidant levels within the studied organisms are related directly to heavy metal pollution, rather than to other accompanying environmental stressors. Environmental factors like oxygen partial pressure, temperature, sali

  A second feature of the Ras-type GTPases is that their ‘on’ and ‘off’ states are temporally and often spatially separated from one another. This feature is essential for GTPases mediating signaling and other processes that need to be kept ‘off’ until the arrival of signaling cues. The need to recrui

  Using embelin and its analogs as surrogate GPR84 agonists we discovered that GPR84 couples to G12 and G13 signaling pathways in addition to Gi, linking receptor function to Rho/Rac signaling and modulation of the cytoskeleton. In primary human macrophages, GPR84 activation leads to Gβγ signaling, Er

  In addition to gonadotropes, GnRHRs have also been detected on somatotropes, lactotropes, thyrotropes, melanotropes, somatolactin (SL) cells, and/or corticotropes using immunohistochemical, radioligand-binding, or mRNA expression approaches across species; including fishes, rats, and humans (La Rosa

  Introduction Edible bird's nest (EBN), known as the health and precious food, is produced from the saliva secretion of several different swiftlet species. Researches have shown the nutritional value of the EBN with the containing of glycoproteins, carbohydrates, essential amino acids, minerals an

  The post-translational modification O-GlcNAcylation is also dependent upon glucose fluctuations. O-GlcNAcylation has been linked to insulin resistance and glucose toxicity in diabetes and its comorbidities [11]. O-GlcNAcylation is a dynamic modification tightly regulated by the nutritional sensor UD

  Interestingly, we have shown that OA required FFAR4 to induce osteoblast gene expression in MC3T3-E1 pre-osteoblasts, but not to inhibit osteoclastogenesis in RAW264.7 murine macrophages. As previously suggested, FFAR1 may mediate the effects of OA in osteoclasts. However, FFAR1 has also been shown

  Introduction The brain contains abundant fatty acids, which serve as constituents of membranes and as an energy source. In addition, fatty acids and their metabolites contribute to signal transduction between neurons or neurons and glial cells, suggesting that fatty acids play a crucial role in d

  Next, we were interested in replacing the ketobenzimidazole fragment of our inhibitors with a noncarbonyl bearing heterocycle. We reasoned that if we could replace the carbonyl while maintaining comparable FAAH inhibition, it would provide evidence for a noncovalent mechanism of action. Thus, we eva
