  2024-04-12

  

  Based on the improved characteristics of the mutant ECDs we proceeded to crystallization trials, starting with the β1-BPloop as the most promising. We obtained rod shaped hexagonal crystals reproducibly, but with moderate diffraction ability (Fig. 5). Furthermore, the crystals were sensitive in moun

  2024-04-12

  

  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

  2024-04-12

  

  The zebrafish (Danio rerio) is a popular model organism for virtually any biological function of vertebrates, and has, therefore, received a wide distribution in particular in developmental biology and toxicology (Strähle et al., 2012). With respect to AChE, the zebrafish has, e.g., been identified

  2024-04-12

  

  The first suggestions that the cleaved intracellular domain of APP, AICD, might transit to the nucleus and hence selectively regulate gene transcription arose from analogies with the Notch receptor signalling system where similar intra-membrane proteolysis occurs [84], [85] and it was later confirme

  2024-04-11

  

  The human CYP17A1 gene is located on chromosome 10q24.3 (1) and spans 6.6 kb, which contain eight exons (2) and 1.6 kb of coding region. From this gene, the same 2.1-kb mRNA species is transcribed in both the adrenals and gonads (3), which yields a 57-kDa microsomal cytochrome P450c17 enzyme (CYP1

  2024-04-11

  

  Autophagy at the Synapse The synapse is a highly specialized neuronal compartment that forms the basic unit of communication between neurons. Communication relies on electrical signals that are propagated down the axon of the presynaptic neuron, where they trigger the quantal release of neurotran

  2024-04-11

  

  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

  Conclusion We have identified potential inhibitors of C. albicans fungus specific nuclear target outer kinetochore Dam1 complex subunit Ask1, virtually screened through the PubChem compounds database (NCBI, USA) by utilizing state-of-art in silico methods in a pipeline. The 3D protein structure o

  Antifungal resistance, what is in a name? Antifungal resistance is an emerging and hot topic in the field of medical mycology. Microbiological resistance is identified by determining minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) in vitro for a given antifungal and interpreting this value according to

  Consistent with the in vitro results, memantine ameliorated Aβ-induced cytotoxicity in rat primary cortical cultures. Studies reported that memantine protected neurons against the damage caused by aggregated Aβ40 or Aβ42 oligomers in vivo[26], [27]. These results suggest that, in addition to its neu

  Conclusion Introduction Lung cancer is the principal cause of death by cancer and the third most common cancer worldwide (Sorber et al., 2016). Lung cancer has two main types: small cell carcinomas (approximately 20%) and non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC) (about 80%) (Fan et al., 2016). NSC

  As noted earlier, the PfkB family of carbohydrate kinases can phosphorylate the hydroxymethyl group of a wide variety of sugar moieties [1], [3]. Recent searches of the Swiss-Prot database with the two conserved sequence motifs found in these proteins (Accession nos. PS00583 and PS00584) identified

  2024-04-10

  

  The AChR is composed of five homologous, membrane-spanning subunits. AChRs containing two α, one β, one δ and one γ subunit (AChRγ) predominate during embryonic development and mice lacking AChRγ die at birth (Takahashi et al., 2002). After birth, the AChRγs are replaced during the first 2 postnatal

  It has been recognized for decades that neurons in the mammalian central nervous system may release both a fast-acting, typically amino acid derived neurotransmitter such as glutamate or GABA, and a second peptidergic neuromodulatory molecule such as neuropeptide Y, substance P, or cholecystokinin.

  Later, the same group designed and prepared several Δ16-steroidal C17 benzoazoles and pyrazines and evaluated their CYP17 and 5α-reductase inhibitory activities, binding to and transactivation of the AR, as well as their antiproliferative effects against two human PC cell lines (LNCaP and LAPC4) [18
