  2020-12-15

  

  Renal injury by cisplatin has been associated with oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis (Francescato et al., 2007, Iseri et al., 2007, Kiymaz et al., 2008, Ueki et al., 2012). Specifically, apoptosis is an important mode of cell death in cisplatin nephrotoxicity, and many studies including

  Introduction Angiotensin II (Ang II) and Endothelin 1 (ET-1) are potent vasoconstrictive peptides recognized as key players in many cardiovascular diseases [1]. Cardiac hypertrophy, ischemic arrhythmia, and stroke have been associated to an overstimulation of the angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) recepto

  Steroid biosynthesis Steroid hormone metabolism in breast cancer Conclusion Steroid hormones elicit their biological actions primarily by binding to steroid receptors such as the ER, AR, PR and GR. Although classical breast cancer diagnostic panels assess the expression of the ER and PR, as

  The third challenge is to understand the mechanisms of drug resistance. There are several different mechanisms of ES tumor to develop drug resistance. First, cancer stem cells are capable of proliferate and generate tumor cells with new sets of mutations which may harbor different protein targets [1

  The nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily of ligand regulated transcription factors has proven to be a rich source of targets for the development of therapeutics for a wide range of human diseases. The NR3B subfamily known as the estrogen-related receptor (ERRα[NR3B1], ERRβ[NR3B2] and ERRγ[NR3B3]) regul

  Recent studies have shown that the extracellular regulated protein kinase 1 and 2 (ERK1 and ERK2), commonly referred to collectively as ERK 1/2, are members of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family. This family of kinases transport signals from the surface of the cell to the nucleus, th

  Diverse functions of ERK pathway Same as the other MAPK cascades, the ERK pathway is activated by several extracellular stimuli and different internal routes. ERK vitally tunes the function of various substrates in all cellular components; the nucleus, cytoplasm, membranes and the cytoskeleton. E

  We next turned our attention to the 6-position of the indole (). It was found that the chlorine atom present in was extremely important. The des-chloro analogue showed nearly 30-fold less affinity for the EP receptor in the binding assay and was nearly 30-fold lower in activity in the functional a

  Compounds 11–13 and 15 possessed relatively low clogP values and tended to show relatively weak antagonist activity regardless of their potent EP1 receptor affinity. Compounds 2–4, which were selected based on their potent in vivo antagonist activity, were found to be effective in an animal model.

  Importantly, we observed significantly the reduced myocardial infarct size, the improved left ventricular function and the inhibited fibrosis after I/R with oral GA-BH4 supplementation before ischemia (Fig. 1, Fig. 2, Fig. 3). Usually, there is a view that the antioxidation induced by reducing agent

  For most enolases, fluoride acts as an inhibitor, while Mg2+ is the most important metal activator. In yeast systems, metal cations and fluoride bind to enolase at the active center of the enzyme, forming a complex. The complex blocks the binding of substrates to the enzyme in yeast systems, thereby

  No Evidence for Further ET-Receptor Subtypes Further receptor subclassifications have been proposed including suggestions that ETB could be subdivided into ETB1, present on endothelial cells, and ETB2 on smooth muscle cells, but there currently is no evidence that the receptors expressed by these

  Acknowledgments Introduction Endothelin receptors Shortly after the discovery of ET‐1, two types of seven transmembrane G protein‐coupled receptors were cloned called endothelin receptor A (ETA) (Arai et al., 1990) and ETB (Sakurai et al., 1990). The affinity of the ETA receptor for ET-3 is

  During the entire life of individual, articular chondrocyte as well as subchondral bone receives acute or chronic stress. Joints homeostasis is maintained by biomechanical stress, as rapid loss of proteoglycan in joints occurs due to immobilization or disuse. These osteophytes are fibrocartilage cap
