  Two in vitro reports using lung fibroblasts have shown that cell transmigration, using transwell migration experiments, through collagen I-coated inserts is mediated by DDR2 and the DDR2-associated signaling kinases JAK2 and ERK1/2, but not DDR1 [63] and that DDR2 regulates the adhesion of fibroblas

  2020-09-18

  

  CysLTs trigger contractile and inflammatory processes through the specific interaction with cell surface receptors belonging to the rhodopsin family of the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) genes. Until now, two receptor subtypes have been cloned, namely CysLT1 and CysLT2[8]. In particular, when the

  Phylogenetically three related CXC chemokines are classified as the possible ligands for the teleost CXCR1 and CXCR2. They are referred to as CXCL8_L1 (CXCL8/IL-8/CXCa), CXCL8_L2 (CXCc) and CXCL8_L3 (Alejo and Tafalla, 2011, Chen et al., 2013, Laing et al., 2002, Laing and Secombes, 2004, Nomiyama e

  The anticholinesterase activities of all subfractions derived from EtOAc extract were detected and summarized in . Fraction 5 and its resulting subfractions (5B, 5C, 5D, 5C3, 5C4, 5D3, and 5D4) were found to show attractive activities. Subsequently, ten compounds (–) were obtained from these active

  Introduction Piperine is a pungent alkaloid and accounts for 2–5% dry weight in black and white peppers (Butt et al., 2013). Physiological benefits of piperine have been a subject of extensive research in recent years. Piperine is an antioxidant with strong anti-inflammatory and antiangiogenic acti

  2020-09-17

  

  Cell swelling stimulates the release of certain amino acids, in particular the non-protein amino mdm2 inhibitor taurine, via a pathway which has the characteristics of a channel rather than a carrier [54], [69]. Indeed, on the basis of pharmacological inhibition, it was suggested that volume-activa

  Introduction The physiological significance of hypoxia is undisputed, although largely over looked in the cancer therapeutics field focused on DNA-damage induced by ionizing radiation or drug treatment. Regions of hypoxia occur during a range of diverse biological situations including embryogenesis

  Endothelial dysfunction has been associated with most of the established cardiovascular risk factors, such as hypercholesterolemia, hypertension, smoking, diabetes mellitus, a positive history of premature CAD and elevated monensin homocysteine 4, 26, 27. Endothelial dysfunction is present in the p

  Introduction Ewing sarcomas/primitive neuroectodermal tumors (ES/PNETs) are relatively infrequent but the second most common sarcoma of the bone next to osteosarcoma. Nearly 80% of them occur in persons younger than 20years. Most of them arise from the bone, but 10 to 20% of them from soft tissue.

  It is well established that a number of intracellular signaling pathways mediate sensitization of sensory neurons (Gold and Gebhart, 2010, Richardson and Vasko, 2002). This redundancy could be advantageous since it provides diversity in initiating and maintaining hypersensitivity in response to inju

  Physiological roles for EPAC isoforms: vascular function The effects of cAMP on limiting vascular endothelial cell (VEC) inflammation and vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) proliferation have been well documented 36, 37, 38. However, recent work has demonstrated that several key effects of cAMP

  Prostaglandins (PGs), in particular PGE2 and PGF2α, play pivotal roles in human parturition by stimulating cervical ripening, myometrial contraction and fetal membrane rupture (Challis et al., 1997). In human pregnancy, the amnion is the principle source of PGE2 (Duchesne et al., 1978). In the amnio

  Another important new result that has expanded the range of functions of iPLA2-VIA in physiology and pathophysiology is its implication in macrophage polarization under stimulation conditions. Ashley et al. [129] described in peritoneal macrophages from Pla2g6−/− mice that the absence of iPLA2-VIA f

  It was demonstrated that ET-1 signaling is the primary axon guidance mechanism that accounts for sympathetic innervation of the sinoatrial node and myocardium in the developing mouse heart [11]. In this article, we will review the findings relating to the basic profiles; i.e. molecular features of
