  The AHR functions in the immune system – a tsunami of exciting findings The research of recent years has convincingly established an important function of the AHR in linking chemical environmental cues to immune responses [21,22], and reviewed in [1,23]. As a side effect, a view of the AHR as “Th

  2024-06-13

  

  In chicken ovary, the adiponectin gene was found to be mainly expressed in theca cells and is suggested to exert a paracrine or autocrine effect on ovarian steroidogenesis (Chabrolle et al., 2007). A limited number of studies have revealed the effect of adiponectin on ovarian steroidogenesis or its

• Adenosine receptors activate a number of signalling pathways

  2024-06-13

  

  Adenosine receptors activate a number of signalling pathways involved in tissue survival including several mitogen-activated protein kinases (Fredholm et al., 2001). The common feature of all adenosine receptors is the positive coupling to ERK1/2, whilst A2B and A3 receptors can also activate the st

  2024-06-13

  

  Introduction Adenosine deaminase (ADA), which can catalyze the conversion of AD to inosine by removing an amino group, is a key hydrolytic enzyme of purine metabolism (Conway and Cooke, 1939), and plays an important role in an amount of diseases. For example, an increase of ADA activity in serum

  Ten strains of lactobacilli: TMW 1.1434 (isogenic with strain F19 ), TMW 1.1733 (isolated from fermented food), TMW 1.1628 (isolated from baby feces), TMW 1.1609 (isolated from baby feces), TMW 1.1734 (isolated from fermented food), TMW 1.313 (isolated from non-pasteurized Heineken beer), TMW 1.465

  2024-06-13

  

  Targeting the BCR is the ideal strategy to identify the antigen reactive B cells. However, there is concern that B cells could be activated when BCR are bound and cross-linked by antigens, a possibility that is obviously negative for the treatment of autoimmune disease. Proby et al. (2000) tried to

  2024-06-13

  

  Apoptosis or programmed cell death is a function of biochemical mechanisms, which are energy-dependent. It is considered to be a vital component of many processes such as normal cell cycle, immune mechanism, atrophy, embryonic development and toxin-induced cell death (Elmore, 2007). In addition, apo

  2024-06-12

  

  ACL Regulation and Role in Lipid Metabolism ACL is a ubiquitous enzyme at the nexus of nutrient catabolism and synthesis of cholesterol and fatty acids. In mammals, it is highly expressed in lipogenic tissues including adipose, liver, and lactating mammary glands [9]. In the presence of ATP and C

  Then, Autodock4.2 was employed for site directed docking on AD with the ligands of the cluster(s) having high binding affinities in VS II experiment (Morris et al., 2009). Docking protocols were followed as per our earlier report with 200 GA (genetic algorithm) run (Kalani et al., 2015). Likewise, l

• AP activity is increased by MAP

  2024-06-12

  

  AP-1 activity is increased by MAP kinase stimulation in different cell types (Whitmarsh and Davis, 1996), while MKP-1, the enzyme that catalyzes the dephosphorylation and inactivation of MAP kinases in the nucleus, inhibits AP-1 (Rössler et al., 2008, Rössler and Thiel, 2009, Mayer et al., 2011, Thi

  2024-06-12

  

  AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is composed of α-, β-, and γ-subunits [17,18]. Phosphorylation of α-subunit at Thr-172 residue is essential for AMPK activation [17,18]. The serine/threonine kinase coordinates metabolic pathways in response to energy supply and demand [17,18]. Studies have shown

  AHR expression in cancer Perhaps the earliest indicator that the AHR might play an ongoing role in tumorigenesis, independent of its role in generating mutations, was the demonstration that non-genotoxic 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo(p)dioxin (TCDD) is a carcinogen in animals and humans [7].

  B lymphocytes are found in blood, lymph nodes, spleen and tonsil and other mucosal tissues [110]. These cells originate in the bone marrow from a common progenitor shared with T, NK, and some DC subsets [111]. Progenitor I-BET151 progress through the early stages of maturation, rearranging heavy- an

  2024-06-11

  

  Two parallel branches of the DNA damage-dependent S-phase checkpoint are thought to co-operate by inhibiting distinct steps of DNA replication. One branch includes the phosphorylation of structural maintenance of chromosomes 1 (SMC1), a cohesin that is activated by ATM or ATR after IR treatment or r
