  Author Contributions Acknowledgments Introduction Osteoporosis is a common bone disease that frequently leads to disruption of the alveolar and systemic bones with age. Novel osteoanabolic strategies to treat osteoporotic bone loss or augment fracture repair efficiently are desired. Since b

  Conclusions Enzyme prodrug therapy mediated by implantable biomaterials combines the benefits offered by the site specific drug delivery techniques and the systemic administration of drugs. From the former, SMEPT inherits the localized mode of drug delivery with lower systemic distribution of the

  2019-12-04

  

  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

  2019-12-04

  

  Introduction Identification and correct storage of seminal stains are crucial for the investigation of sexual assault cases. Actually, undetected ‘cold’ cases involving sexual assault can be solved decades after investigations analysing DNA from stored evidences [1]. Recently, STR analysis and th

  2019-12-04

  

  Having generated synthetic cytokines and synthetic cytokine receptors, the logical next step has been to design fully synthetic cytokine/cytokine receptor systems, modifying either cytokine/cytokine receptor binding interfaces or cytokine-unrelated combinations of substances and their binding domain

  2019-12-04

  

  Introduction The Bromeliaceae family is one of the most morphologically and ecologically diverse flowering plant families native to the tropics and subtropics of the New World (Benzing, 2000). They comprise >3000 species and are traditionally divided into three subfamilies: Pitcairnioideae, Bromeli

  2019-12-04

  

  The objective of the present study was to investigate the role of the CRF system in the neuroadaptations associated with nicotine dependence. To this aim, the regulation of the gene expression of CRF and its receptors was assessed in Brilliant Blue G regions belonging to the reward pathway using a

  2019-12-04

  

  Although, in vitro and in vivo immunosuppressive effects of female steroids have been described in fish (Yamaguchi et al., 2001, Law et al., 2001), their mode of action was not evaluated in detail. Consequently, it is of considerable interest to investigate the intracellular pathways that regulate t

  Estradiol, the predominant circulating estrogen in humans, it is mainly secreted by the granulosa cells of the ovarian follicles, and the corpora lutea, by the mechanisms indicated above. On the other hand, estretrol is synthesized exclusively during pregnancy by the fetal liver and reaches maternal

  Results Discussion Fetal development occurs under conditions of low oxygen tension and steady maternal glucose such that physiologic systems including the pancreas are functionally poised in the prenatal state. Postnatally, oxidative metabolism becomes dominant and intermittent feeding exposes

  Artificial permutations have also been exploited by protein engineering to manipulate protein scaffolds, in order to improve catalytic activity, alter substrate or ligand binding affinity, reduce proteolytic susceptibility, increase stability, generate different aggregation states and improve fluore

  With respect to ‘bone metabolism and ossification’-related genes, treatment of SaOS-2 osteoblast-like iniparib receptor with MS-10 up-regulated IGFBP-4, TG2, and SOST. Up-regulation of IGFBP-4 in SaOS-2 cells inhibits DNA and protein synthesis induced by IGF-1 (Kudo et al., 1995, Kudo et al., 1996)

  A growing number of other post-translational modifications are implicated in regulation of the ubiquitin system, including substrate modification by hydroxylation, glycosylation, acetylation, methylation, modification by poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR), and attachment of ubiquitin-like modifiers. The HIF1-α

  As before  [3], [4], all calculations are based on thermodynamically first- and second-order hydropathic (amino acid) scales  [6], [7], linearly scaled to a common center and a common range for each of the 20 amino acids. These are then converted to a triangular matrix , where is the length of a s

  The central role of DNA-PK in the NHEJ NHEJ can be divided in several steps (Fig. 1A): 1) recognition and binding of Ku at each ends of the DSB following by the assembly of the DNA-PK at the break points and bridging; 2) phosphorylation of the DNA ends by DNA-PKcs; 3) ligation of the ends by DNA
