  We also noticed that acetic acid by itself (used to induce pain) increased spinal cord levels of KYNA (see Fig. 5). The most rational explanation of this finding is based on the possibility that acetic acid and KYNA share the same transport systems and the finding is therefore not surprising. Altho

  The atomic model of Ce-INX6 provides an additional interpretation to the Ce-INX6ΔN mutant structure at low-resolution [41]. Given that the N-terminal residues from 2 to 19 are deleted in the Ce-INX6ΔN mutant, the N-terminal funnel found in the pore of the wild-type Ce-INX6 should be lost in the Ce-I

  Somatostatin analogues are among the first peptide-based drugs used in cancer imaging and therapy (for review see Reubi, 2003). Treatment of tumors by the use of peptide analogues labeled with cytotoxic agents acting via specific receptors is also under investigation for neuropeptide Y (Koglin and B

  We compared the mixotrophic growth of mutant DRHB1486 and the wild-type at different light intensities. The mutant grew at a similar rate as the wild-type at a low light intensity but much more slowly at a high light intensity (Fig. 3). Because the slr2094 mutant was unable to grow under photoautotr

  2022-01-07

  

  The ability to metastasize is the defining character of a cancer and the leading cause for resultant mortality. It is hypothesized that a rare subset of cancer cells, often operationally referred to as “cancer stem cells” (CSCs), are responsible for sustaining cancer metastasis and recurrence [1]. T

  CDX1 is also a tumor suppressor gene; the ablation of CDX1 and CDX2 results in a significant increase in tumor formation in the colon. CDX1 is regulated by epigenetic modification; the hypermethylation of the CpG island at the promoter is positively associated with severe clinical phenotypes. In add

  Whilst it has long been appreciated that Rho-family GTPases are able to signal directly to focal adhesions, it is also becoming increasingly clear that they can achieve this indirectly, through their influence on the extracellular matrix to which the integrins bind. Cdc42 and RhoA have long been kno

  An interesting question is why RhoF has such the slow rate of GDP dissociation. The amino Calcein acetoxymethyl ester receptor mutations in a presumable GDP-binding site of RhoF had only moderate effects on the GDP dissociation (Fig. 3C), which suggests a mechanism involving the global amino acid s

  The gsnor-ko plants contain elevated amount of low and high molecular weight S-nitrosothiols (SNO) indicating that GSNOR activity controls the level of both GSNO and indirectly protein-SNOs [13], [17], [18]. GSNOR deficiency has been shown to cause pleiotropic plant growth defects, impaired plant di

  Introduction Activation of the lipid sensing receptor, GPR55, by lysophosphatidyl inositol (LPI) has been well documented, and implicated in endocannabinoid signaling [1]. Intracellular events resulting from GPR55 activation include; enhanced β-arrestin activity, calcium mobilization and ERK1/2 p
