  Introduction Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disease characterised by failure of transmission at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ). In 80–85% of myasthenia gravis patients, the disease is mediated by antibodies to the nicotinic YM178 receptor (AChR; (Lindstrom et al., 1976). Many investig

  2024-10-24

  

  Comparatively, cell-based assays appear to be the most sensitive method to detect patient autoantibodies directed at neurotransmitter receptors. Leite et al. demonstrated that many α-BTX RIA seronegative myasthenic patients do have autoantibodies against the AChR when a highly sensitive immunofluore

  It is already established in the literature that products synthesized by 5-LO, such as lipoxin A4, can activate PPARγ in a setting of experimental stroke [43]. Interestingly, experiments using 5-LO knockout mice in an endotoxemia model to mimic septic conditions, demonstrated reduced multiple organ

  2024-10-24

  

  Introduction Cancer, which is responsible for a million deaths each year, is universally feared, and approximately 50% of newly diagnosed cases can be cured [1]. The existing cancer treatments, including surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy or a combination of them, are quickly losing efficacy. The

  2024-10-24

  

  The co-crystal structure of ()-blebbistatin ()- bound to myosin II (PDB: ) was used to scout for possible favorable interactions with the residues lining the binding pocket. Looking at A, we hypothesized that -oriented hydrophilic moieties (e.g. hydroxymethyl) on C of the blebbistatin scaffold migh

  Chromatin proteins play important roles in gene expression and DNA repair. The importance of chromatin composition on gene expression is exemplified by X-inactivation, where one of the two X chromosomes in female mammalian Difopein is transcriptionally silenced by heterochromatin , , , . In the ATR

  Earlier studies showed that exposure of cells to IR caused ATM-dependent phosphorylation of 53BP1, as judged by electrophoretic mobility shift [24], [25], [26]. To date, the only known in vivo 53BP1 phosphorylation site(s) are Ser25 and possibly Ser29 [27]. In the course of our studies, we noticed t

  2024-10-24

  

  Aromatization of the pyrrole ring after anion capturing, using acceptor atoms with electron deficiency (B & Be), and substitution of strong electron withdrawing groups such as CN were three strategies used to design a new class of anion receptors. Comparison of the anion affinities of these anion re

  In addition to attracting immune cells to the site of injury, ROS also participate in proliferative responses during compensatory proliferation and regeneration. In Xenopus tadpoles, tail amputation induces sustained production of ROS over the span of regeneration, and decreasing ROS levels, especia

  Physiology of the apelin pathway Role of apelin in heart disease Both apelin and apelin receptor null mice manifested moderate reduction in cardiac contractile function under basal conditions and their exercise capacity was markedly reduced (Table 1) [56]. Apelin has direct effects on the prop

  2024-10-24

  

  Gene regulation of MMPs is influenced by the transcription factor activating factor-1 (AP-1). AP-1 complexes are heterodimers of proteins of the two proto-oncogene families (jun and fos) and have Febuxostat in the promoter region of MMPs, as well as in genes mediating inflammatory responses. The tra

  Besides above-mentioned UV–visible and fluorescence spectroscopy methods, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, the only analytical method that detect compounds having unpaired electrons known as free radicals, was rarely used in antioxidant capacity measurement (Amarowicz et al., 2004

  Insulin is the central hormone involved in the control of glucose and lipid metabolism. Other nonmetabolic effects of insulin are intensively studied as well. Activation of insulin receptor not only promotes glucose uptake, protein synthesis, and inhibits lipid metabolism, but also is crucial for re

  Critically we found that pre-treatment with Aβ monomer preparations prevented the Aβ oligomer-induced aggregation of PrPC. These preparations contain a mixture of Aβ species and consequently it was not possible to identify the precise form of Aβ that is responsible for this effect. It is possible th

  Most intriguingly, however, there was no change in basal glutamatergic neurotransmission despite a loss of about half of the neuronal AMPAR population. Highest levels of ammonia did neither affect the amplitude nor the frequency of AMPAR mediated mEPSCs. As revealed by our recordings from somatic ou
