  Several 16-dehidropregnenolone derivatives functionalized at C3, C4, C5 and C6 (Fig. 7) were prepared and evaluated as 5α-reductase inhibitors bearing in mind that after the formation of an enzyme-steroid complex a nucleophilic portion of the enzyme attacks the double bond of the steroid through Mic

  2024-02-19

  

  At present, drugs that specifically inhibit YAP activity are not available. In fact, verteporfin, which was originally described as a specific inhibitor of YAP-TEAD interaction, has been recently shown to exert its activity through selective induction of proteotoxicity rather than through YAP inhibi

  The most likely explanation for the species differences in aromatase distribution and the unique AMI-1 distribution in humans is the unique location, size and highly elaborate organization of the human aromatase gene (e.g. Bulun et al., 2003). The human Cyp19 is a large gene located on chromosome 1

  2024-02-18

  

  Negative regulation of AR expression by NFκB was also correlated with the ‘age-dependent desensitisation’ of androgen action in the rat liver (Supakar et al., 1995). In this case the binding site was mapped upstream of the gene to sequences −555 to −565 bp, that binds heterodimers of p65 and p50, as

  2024-02-18

  

  Compelling evidence now indicates that DR is a multifactorial disease that involves chronic inflammation at every stage, from initiation to progression and eventually to ischemia and NV [6,7]. Data from animal studies suggest that leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesion and entrapment (leukostasis) are

  Taken together, the results reveal a complex feedback and feedforward signaling network between the tryptophan metabolic enzymes IDO1/TDO2, the KP metabolite KYN, and the ligand-activated transcription factor AhR (Figure 2). Cancer SMIP004 highjack this signaling circuitry to deregulate immunologica

  Adiponectin also works on AdipoR1, inducing extracellular Ca2+ influx necessary for activation of Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase (CaMKK)β, AMPK (Fig. 1). This step is then followed by activation of SirT1 and increased expression and decreased acetylation of PPARγ coactivator (PGC)-1

  In terms of the full-length proteins, it was noted early on that ACs have two cellular localizations: as integral proteins of the plasma membrane and as soluble proteins in the cytosol. Based on the distribution in mammalian sequences, it was initially proposed that subclass IIIa contains only membr

  Since the cloning of ARs in the beginning of the 1990s, the efforts to characterize them have led to the accumulation of a substantial amount of experimental data. Decades of site-directed mutagenesis (SDM; Box 1) studies, in combination with pharmacological data and computational modeling, have pav

  Although the role of mossy fiber sprouting in epileptogenesis has been challenged (Elmer et al., 1997, Nissinen et al., 2001), in addition to astrogliosis, mossy fiber sprouting is one of the characteristic histopathological findings in TLE (Kharatishvili et al., 2006, Pitkanen et al., 2007, Represa

  Acknowledgments Introduction Hypospadias is a common congenital malformation in males, in which the urethral orifice is found on the ventral side of the penis as a result of incomplete fusion of urethral folds. The mean prevalence in per 10,000 live births from 1910 to 2013 were: Europe 19.9,

  Caffeic cmv virus (3,4-dihydroxycinnamic acid) is a natural compound that inhibits 5-LO and exerts potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Recently, Takeda et al. reported that caffeic acid provided neuroprotective and anti-depressive activities [23]. Sertraline, a selective serotonin

  Thus one possible target for CRPC treatment is the enzyme 17,20-lyase, which plays a crucial role in androgen biosynthesis. This is because inhibition of 17,20-lyase would be expected to decrease serum androgen levels secreted not only by the testes but also by the adrenal glands.7, 8, 9 In recent

  The evidence points toward a role for 12/15-LO activity in WAT in modulating chronic local inflammation and subsequent systemic metabolic decline in the obese state. However, little is known as to the role of 12- and 15-LOs in BAT. Indeed, in addition to WAT, platelet- and leukocyte-type 12-LO are e
