  It is well known that acrolein, a metabolite of cyclophosphamide, is responsible for the cyclophosphamide-induced cystitis, and that acrolein is capable of activating TRPA1 channels expressed in the capsaicin-sensitive primary afferents [2], [11]. In this context, it is likely that the early phase o

  2021-01-07

  

  In mammals, neutrophil elastase is a trypsin-like serine protease stored in the azurophilic granules of naïve neutrophils [15], [16]. The catalytic activity of neutrophil elastase relies on a His57–Asp102–Ser195 triad (chymotrypsin numbering system) that functions by transfer of electrons from the c

  Expression and Tissue Functions of DDRs The DDRs are widely expressed in different tissues, both during development and in adult organisms. DDR1 mRNA is found in many tissues in mice and humans, with high levels in brain, lung, kidney, spleen, and placenta (Di Marco et al., 1993, Johnson et al.,

  Although our knowledge of the biochemical and biological functions of E3 ubiquitin ligases has increased in B-cell malignancies, a deeper characterization of cell-context dependent substrate regulation and biological relevance is needed. The recent approval of a general proteasome inhibitor, VELCADE

  Targeting both PARP-1 and DHODH for anti-cancer therapy would certainly be beneficial as these enzymes share a common role in the DNA replication and repair mechanisms which are involved in the hyper-proliferation of cancer cells. Since benzimidazole-containing compounds have been reported to show g

  The compounds were ranked based on the Glide XP Score, as shown in . All 15 compounds were subject to a radiometric assay previously used in our lab to evaluate their ability to inhibit DHFR steady-state activity in recombinant TS-DHFR (A). Compound demonstrated greater than 50% inhibition of DHFR

  2021-01-07

  

  The CYP3A genes are regulated physiologically by glucocorticosteroids, growth hormone, thyroid hormones and cytokines [13, 20, 30]. It has been shown that glucocorticoid receptor (GR), pregnane X receptor (PXR), constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) and vitamin D receptor (VDR) play an important ro

  Conclusion To our knowledge, this study is the first to give evidence that the ETA selective antagonist BQ-123 reverses the cisplatin-induced ARF mainly via restoring SOD activity, in addition to other antioxidant parameters, NO, TNF-α and caspase-3 levels. And that this protective effect require

  Exposure to UV instead of DMBA also produced a sloughing and angiogenic response in transgenic, but not WT, mice, indicating that the epidermis of the BK5.EP4 mice has a much lower apoptosis threshold than WT mice, as suggested by others (Chun and Langenbach, 2007). Overall, these studies suggest th

  To provide a brief critical evaluation of this technology and an outlook, we note that performance of SMEPT is critically dependent on each of the components making up this platform, namely the substrate, the enzyme, and the prodrug. With regards to the latter, SMEPT is built on the experience and s

  Potential break-through technology poised to overcome these above-mentioned limitations is that of the “substrate mediated enzyme prodrug therapy”, SMEPT (Fig. 1). Learning from the previously established enzyme prodrug therapies (EPT) and specifically the antibody-directed EPT (ADEPT) [12], develop

  The biological actions of ET‐1 are mediated via two distinct receptor subtypes, the endothelin A and endothelin B receptors (ETA/ETB). While activation of ETA is assumed to mediate contraction of smooth muscle cells, the activity of ETB is related to transient vasodilation [22]. In human corpus cave

  Previous studies in the Swiss Webster mouse (Rosengren et al., 1995) and the Sprague–Dawley rat (El Sisi et al., 1993) have shown that retinol pretreatment potentiates the hepatotoxicity of paracetamol. The current study is designed to investigate further this interaction in mice. To accomplish this
