  2021-07-21

  

  The vascular endothelium is a highly dynamic multifunctional organ that is critically involved in the regulation of vessel integrity, vascular growth and remodeling, tissue growth and metabolism, immune responses, cell adhesion, angiogenesis, hemostasis and vascular permeability [23]. Therefore, the

  The underlying mechanisms of how progesterone prolongs pregnancy, although not completely understood, are thought to have to do with reduction in uterine contractility, antimicrobial protein up-regulation, immunosuppression, and inflammatory inhibition. Specific to preterm PROM, progesterone has bee

  2021-07-21

  

  The selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs) are another type of estrogen receptor ligands. The main difference between SERMs and xenoestrogens relies on the fact that SERMs present functional duality and are able to act both as agonists and antagonists of the estrogen receptors in different t

  In normal chow fed mice, EP4 deficiency also decreased the expression of CYP8B1, the downstream target of CYP7A1. Similarly, knockdown of EP4 with small interfering RNA reduced the expression of CYP8B1 in HepG2 cells. Therefore, it was anticipated that there would be an increased expression of CYP8B

  This study has some limitations. First, the immunoblot analyses performed in the present study did not test for whole retinal antigens. Therefore, we could not exclude the possibility that the clinical features of our cases were caused by the activity of other antiretinal antibodies, although the sa

  Introduction Acinetobacter baumannii is a gram-negative opportunistic pathogen that causes nosocomial infections including pneumonia and bloodstream infections which is associated with an increased mortality and multi-drug resistance [[1], [2], [3]]. A. baumannii was rated as one of the critical

  Materials and methods Results Discussion Although autophagy is known to be implicated in the therapeutic effect of DNA alkylating agents such as MNNG [28], [29], [30], the molecular mechanisms underlying autophagy induced by MNNG remain largely elusive. In this study, we present evidence sh

  Most of the amino TAME mg residues contacting the substrate are within the nucleotide-recognition lid (mauve or magenta in Fig. 4A). Two particularly important residues, W69 and Y76, are conserved in eubacteria and in some but not all of eight human AlkB homologs [52], [76] (Fig. 4B). The tryptophan

  On the basis of the published articles, it is known that chemokines are produced by leukocytes and tissue cells, constitutively or after induction. Chemokines are responsible for the recruitment of leukocytes to maintain proper functioning of the immune system [14]. They exist in the central nervous

  Common to all models for nuclear transport is the binding of importins/exportins to FG repeats found in about a third of the ∼30 nucleoporins, the so-called FG-Nups (Iovine et al., 1995, Rexach and Blobel, 1995); for review, see Grossman et al.

  A further quandary concerning rediscoveries arises in habitats modified and frequented by humans, where rediscovered species may occur through accidental or deliberate introductions (Metcalf et al., 2007) rather than having persisted despite adverse conditions. Confusion regarding origin could evoke

  A comparison between tinnitus and controls subjects showed increased activity in the left AUD and PHC for the gamma frequency band. The link between gamma band activity in the AUD and tinnitus has been identified using both EEG (van der Loo et al., 2009) and MEG (Weisz et al., 2005, 2007). This is s

  The contradictory effects exerted by metals were reviewed by Nunes (2011) that stated that the concentration and the species of metal can cause specific effects in ChE activity. Being environmentally exposed, the organism can accumulate metals in tissues, increasing their concentrations. Some author
