  In the past few years, several experimental findings have demonstrated a pivotal involvement of adenosine also in driving the phenotypic switch of macrophages. In particular, the stimulation of A2A and A2B receptors seems to play a critical role in switching macrophages from M1 to M2 phenotype [37,6

  2024-04-26

  

  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

  Resection of DNA ends The highly conserved MRN/MRX complex (Mre11-Rad50-Nbs1 in metazoan; Mre11-Rad50-Xrs2 in yeast) and the Ku70/Ku80 heterodimer (hereafter referred to as Ku) are the first protein complexes to be recruited at DSBs [6]. The presence of Ku and MRN/MRX mediates the recruitment of

  Another factor that is involved in the severity of EAE is apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1), which is one of a growing number of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) kinase kinases identified in the upstream of the c-Jun N-terminal kinase and p38 MAPK pathways [12]. We previously report

  The subnuclear localizations of redox regulators is also largely unknown. The potential role of thiol reductases as transcription regulators or DNA repair molecules may suggest an association to DNA. In this way, the presence of a zinc finger domain potentially involved in protein/DNA interactions o

  The current antifungal pipeline contains several categories of compounds at different stages of development [1], [9], [10], [96]. In Table 1 we summarize the most promising antifungal molecules that are in preclinical and in clinical development. Several compounds in the pipeline are derivatives of

  Concluding Remarks Despite major advances in the development of antibody and small-molecule tumor angiogenesis inhibitors, therapy resistance, both innate and acquired, continues to limit further survival improvements for patients with cancer.

  sVRPs were more sensitive to ABT-702 than MSRs. This result agrees with previous reports that the activation of A1 receptors more potently inhibits sVRPs than MSRs (Nakamura et al., 1997, Otsuguro et al., 2009). Importantly, sVRPs are thought to reflex C-fiber-evoked nociceptive transmission. Nocic

  To date, more than 50 different mutations in the gene have been described (Human Gene Mutation Database at the Institute of Medical Genetics in Cardiff: SRD5A2 Gene: http://www.hgmd.cf.ac.uk). Most of them are missense mutations but premature stop codons and deletions leading to non-functional or su

  Angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitors Sacubitril/valsartan is the first-in-class ARNI, comprising of molecular moieties of valsartan (ARB) and a neprilysin inhibitor prodrug, sacubitril (AHU377) [51]. Upon ingestion, sacubitril is rapidly metabolised into an active neprilysin inhibitor, sacu

  Hyperactivity of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, which is well described in MDD (Pariante and Lightman, 2008, Marques et al., 2009), is also observed in AD and results in increased glucocorticoid (GC, cortisol in primates) levels in blood and CSF (Davis et al., 1986, Martignoni et al.

  Kuda et al.
