  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

  Present study observed failure of PPE usage by the majority of workers, which may be notable problem and may create a significant health effects due to pesticide exposure. Non-usage of PPE and its ill effects have been reported among farmers in Brazil [24,25] and Nepal [26]. It was reported that use

  2019-09-27

  

  In cholesterol synthesis, HMG-CoA reductase is the rate limiting step in cholesterol biosynthesis. Statins or HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors are commonly used for management of hypercholesterolemia. The presence of an HMG-like moiety on these drugs allows them to competitively bind to the catalytic do

  Exposure to UV instead of DMBA also produced a sloughing and angiogenic response in transgenic, but not WT, mice, indicating that the epidermis of the BK5.EP4 mice has a much lower apoptosis threshold than WT mice, as suggested by others (Chun and Langenbach, 2007). Overall, these studies suggest th

  Nrf2 and HO-1 are key factors in the regulation of oxidative stress in the body. Research has shown that KLF2 can activate Nrf2 and HO-1 [14]. To investigate the mechanisms by which KLF2 regulates eNOS uncoupling and oxidative stress, Nrf2 was inhibited or HO-1 was knocked down in KLF2 overexpressin

  Results of the present study demonstrate that 25-OHC treatment of THP-1 monocytes induced vimentin intermediate filament reorganization to more cortical structures and a polarized phenotype (Fig. 5). Vimentin is the major intermediate filament protein present in leukocytes and plays an important rol

  During the past three decades, platinum-based DNA-alkylating agents have been employed in the treatment of various cancers [14]. Oxaliplatin is currently used as a first-line treatment for colorectal cancer (CRC) [15]. Unfortunately, a large portion of CRC patients receiving oxaliplatin-based chemot

  Elevated homocysteine has been considered to be a risk factor for vascular dysfunction, vascular disease, and preeclampsia , . The methionine-homocysteine metabolism is responsible for supplying COMT with the methyl-group donor (-adenosyl methionine; SAM) necessary for 2-ME synthesis, and alteration

  The COMT gene is involved in numerous psychological and physiologic processes, including modulation of pain. Polymorphisms in this gene have also been associated with many painful conditions, including pain sensitivity in children. Bivariate analysis demonstrated that individuals with heterozygous C

  Before addressing point-by-point the aforementioned topics in separate sub-sections it should be remarked that the strength of recommendations provided by guidelines is graded in three classes: I (evidence and/or general agreement that a given treatment or procedure is beneficial, useful,effective),

  The work described by Dong, Groves, and co-workers (11) tested the hypothesis that neural stem cell development is sensitive to the clustering and mechanical state of the EphB4:ephrin-B2 receptor-ligand complex. They show that the quality of ephrin-B2-ligand signaling depends on its biophysical stat

  In our former work, our interest was in discovery of novel VEGFR-2 inhibitors as anti-angiogenesis agents. Along this line, with natural alkaloid taspine as the lead compound, rounds of structure optimization were performed to develop novel VEGFR-2 inhibitors [[13], [14], [15]]. Among them, BPS-7, b

  A particularly important system in which Eph-ephrin signaling has been widely studied is neural development, in which downstream signal transduction controls neural stem cell (NSC) proliferation, migration, and survival both during early development and in adulthood (19, 20, 21). Furthermore, Eph-ep
