  The effect of ET-1 activity on the development of experimental pulmonary fibrosis has also been examined by other investigators. One study found that repeated administration of Bosentan, an ERA used to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), significantly decreased bleomycin-induced pulmonary f

  2021-02-08

  

  Extracellular uridine can be transported across the cell membrane to enter the nucleotide salvage pathway. A colon cancer cell line supplemented with uridine was capable of growing normally in the presence of 1 μM brequinar (Peters et al., 1992). The supplemented uridine may be transported into the

  2021-02-08

  

  Given the importance of cysteine cathepsin inhibitors as putative therapeutic molecules and microbial virulence factors, we chose to investigate whether Yersinia enterocolitica may be a potent producer of such inhibitors. Y. enterocolitica is the most heterogeneous species within the genus Yersinia.

  While a growing body of knowledge demonstrates the importance of COX-1 and COX-2 accompanied with neuroinflammation in altitude related conditions. In fact, PGE2 has been widely thought to promote the neuronal inflammation and degeneration in many neurological maladies (Griffin et al., 2013, Jiang a

  Acknowledgments Casein kinases (CK) are serine/threonine-specific enzymes and can be divided two subtypes: casein kinase 1 (CK1) and casein kinase 2 (CK2). CK1 contains at least seven isoforms (α, β, γ1, γ2, γ3, δ and ε) expressed in eukaryotic organisms, CK1 is involved in various cellular pro

  We have previously reported the characterization of A-127722, a novel, non-peptide endothelin antagonist that displays very high affinity binding (K=69 pM) with a more than 1000-fold greater affinity for human endothelin ETA than ETB receptor. Although A-127722 is >1000-fold more selective for endot

  Initial investigations in the heart uncovered Epac as a positive regulator of myocyte hypertrophy [8], [9]. Concomitantly, Epac has been shown to regulate cardiac Ca homeostasis [8], [10], [11], [12], [13]. Ca is an essential second messenger in the cardiac physiology because its rhythmic variations

  Adding more pieces to the puzzle, using a human-to-animal crossover study, blood taken from healthy volunteers that underwent exercise was used as a dialysate to perfuse a rabbit heart in a Langendorff model of MI [62]. Unprecedentedly, dialysate of plasma from exercised humans reduced infarct size

  Introduction Proteins play an important role in cellular functions; however, being and remaining properly folded is necessary for their function. Understanding the stability of the protein is necessary to investigate the folding of proteins, as well as their conformation, functions and interactions

  A novel series of DHODH inhibitors was developed by us based on a lead that was discovered during a docking procedure and medicinal chemistry exploration. The activity of the initial lead was improved by a QSAR method and yielded low nanomolar inhibitors. Introduction The most common metabolic h
