• Immunomodulation effects of certain oxysterols

  2020-12-28

  

  Immunomodulation effects of certain oxysterols were previously shown to depend on activation of oxysterol-binding liver X receptors (LXRs). Recent work from our labs as well as from others has shown additional receptors linking oxysterols and immunity. For example, we found that 7α,25-dihydroxychole

  2020-12-28

  

  MicroRNA (miRNA) is a class of highly conserved, non-coding small molecules containing 19–25 nucleotides. miRNAs are involved in the regulation of genes associated with cancer development and progression and therefore can act as oncogenes, by contributing to tumor formation,17, 18 or as tumor suppre

  The identification of CRF atrial natriuretic peptide receptor subtypes has led to a number of studies addressing its functional properties. This paper examines the evidence for CRF1 and CRF2 mediation of fear and anxiety. Recent reviews discussing specific CRF receptor functions associated with othe

  2020-12-28

  

  The recombinant Scl2 collagen system has shown capability as a biomaterial as well because of its adaptability and scalability. Scl2 was functionalized to crosslink into a hydrogel without disrupting its triple helix [130]. The Scl2–hydrogel crosslinking also did not disrupt cell adhesion and integr

  2020-12-28

  

  Prenylation may turn a flavonoid from an agonist to an antagonist and improve the selectivity to both ERs depending on the position of the substitution. C-8 prenylation appears to promote antagonism to a larger extent than C-6 in ERα due to steric hindrance against generation of agonistic conformati

• MAPKs are a family of phosphorylating enzymes

  2020-12-28

  

  MAPKs are a family of phosphorylating enzymes that orchestrate various cellular response in proliferation, apoptosis, inflammation, stress response, and energy metabolism [11]. There are at least four major members including extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1 and 2 (ERK1/2), p38 mitogen-activat

  Similarly in the EAE model, Chalmin et al. previously demonstrated that EBI2 and CH25H might be responsible for the efficient egress of differentiated Th17 cells from the draining lymph nodes [31]. As discussed above, in active EAE we did not find differences in EAE development and only the transfer

  Gliptins have become a part of various therapeutic regimens to treat type 2 diabetics in recent decades. Gliptins were developed to lower the blood glucose in type 2 diabetes patients and have been shown to be effective [4,5]. More than a dozen gliptins have been developed for the treatment of T2DM,

  Total synthesis requires the two key intermediates 3 and 7, which were synthesized using the route described in below. Phenylethylamine 3 was readily synthesized from vanillin or isovanillin; the overall yield was 50–52%. To prepare the intermediates 7, bromination of 2-(4-hydroxyphenyl) acetate wi

  In this paper, we describe a facile and universal method for in situ crosslinking of DNA micelles, using spherically directed reduction of metal ions. As shown in Scheme 1A, a single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) consisting of a ligand domain, a template domain, and a lipid domain was designed as a monomer t
