  Based on the ability of CRF to modulate nociception, we hypothesized that stress leads to hyperalgesia by the activation of CRF1 and/or CRF2 receptors in the spinal cord. We tested this hypothesis using an acute forced swim as a widely used and easily reproducible stressor and grip force as a measur

  Materials and methods Results Discussion It has been demonstrated that up-regulation of EPHB4 impaired trophoblast migration and invasion during placentation, which may contribute to the pathogenesis of preeclampsia [11], [24]. However, the upstream regulating mechanism of EPHB4 expression

  In this study we investigated the role 17-phenyl tinor (pt)-PGE2 on endothelial barrier function and the underlying molecular mechanism in HMVEC-Ls as well as in a murine model of LPS-induced acute pulmonary inflammation. We found that 17-pt-PGE2 concentration-dependently enhanced endothelial barrie

  Assessing DUB activity The Ub field has benefited greatly from the past efforts of biochemists and chemical biologists who have reconstituted Ub signals in vitro and generated tools for capturing or measuring DUB activities, many of which can be readily produced or are commercially available (Ekk

  2020-03-13

  

  To explore the mechanism behind differential activation kinetics, Marcott et al. (2018) manipulate local dopamine dynamics. They show that differences in dopamine concentrations are not responsible for different D2R activation kinetics, since D2-IPSCs reach similar amplitudes at different rates in N

  2020-03-13

  

  Regarding the mechanism of action of CRF, several studies have shown that low doses of CRF may preferentially activate CRF1 receptors in glutamatergic projection neurons, serotoninergic neurons or glutamatergic collaterals in the medial prefrontal cortex (Vertes, 2004). Indeed, prosencephalic inacti

  Although the control group and tinnitus group do not significantly differ based on age, gender or hearing loss, a limitation of this study is that the control group is only group-matched, and not individually matched. Furthermore, we only tested hearing acuity in tinnitus patients via standard pure

  Using characteristic features of ECM proteins and a computational pipeline combining interrogation of protein and gene databases, we previously defined the matrisome as the ensemble of ECM and ECM-associated proteins [[16], [17], [18]]. In mammals, the matrisome represents 4% of the genome, or appro

  Cholesterol handling in the arterial wall cells Foam cell formation in the arterial intima is a major hallmark of early-stage atherosclerotic lesions, which is attributed to uncontrolled uptake of modified lipoproteins, excess cholesterol esterification and impaired cholesterol release [44]. As a

  The mechanism by which OC use leads to impaired glucose tolerance is yet to be fully clarified. Decreased insulin sensitivity appears to be mainly accounted for by estrogenic component and this effect may be modified by progestogenic component [14], [15]. Estrogenic effect on glucose tolerance has

  The elastase-induced injury model has been shown to produce airspace enlargement, and increases in lung volume and compliance that are similar to those observed in human patients (Hantos et al., 2008, Hamakawa et al., 2011). Thus, this model, which has been used to study emphysema, should be adequat

  A structural explanation for how RBR RING1s handle their bound E2~Ubs differently from canonical RINGs has not been readily apparent. Only a few residue positions are strongly conserved in RING and RING1 domains, most of which are zinc-coordinating Cys and histidine residues. A key position in cano

  Our conclusion is in disagreement with that of a recent paper by Park et al. [10], which suggests that nitric oxide (NO) inhibition of VHL recruitment occurs by nitrosylation of the 520 cysteine in HIF-1α, and that SNAP does not directly inhibit hydroxylation of HIF peptide by HPH-2. Although this

  Introduction Human cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a herpesvirus which has a ubiquitous and worldwide distribution, and is the most frequent cause of congenital infection (Kenneson and Cannon, 2007). The prevalence is around 0.5–1% of all live births and is the leading cause of sensorineural hearing loss
