  Elevated aminopeptidase activities were often detected in organs of plant with accelerated protein turnover, such as leaves and petals during senescence, fruits maturation or in germinating seeds [22]. Moreover, it was proven that these enzymes take part in defense responses [[23], [24], [25]]. Part

  Conclusion P. gingivalis expresses various exopeptidases, i.e., DPP4, DPP5, DPP7, DPP11, PtpA, and AOP, in periplasmic space, which produce di- and tri-peptides from most oligopeptides. This oligopeptide processing step is important as an extracellular event in the BGJ 398 of asaccharolytic P. g

  2023-11-23

  

  6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) is a selective catecholaminergic neurotoxin mainly used to generate lesions in the nigrostriatal pathway in rats (Ungerstedt, 1968). The most common use of 6-OHDA is via unilateral injection into the rat medial forebrain bundle (MFB). DA depletion, nigral DA cell loss, and

  Introduction The chronic inflammation is one of the leading events involved in the aetiology of many chronic-degenerative diseases including diabetes, atherosclerosis, arthritis and cancer (Coussens and Werb, 2002). Monocytes/macrophages lineage plays an important role during inflammation through

  Introduction Microdialysis is an in vivo-technique which allows continuous sampling of small molecular weight substances (such as neurotransmitters, metabolites and neuropeptides) from the extracellular space of different tissues or organs, e.g. brain, muscle or skin. While the implantation of the

  Although experiments on animals and cells indicate that antioxidant and free radical scavenging agents have protective effects against brain damage, the results of preclinical trials are not as encouraging. Edaravone is a type of free radical scavenging drug that was first used as a neuroprotective

  Consistent with the observation that mutations in the redox-partner binding site of P450c17 that reverse charge from basic to acidic (R347H, R358Q) cause 17,20-lyase deficiency (Geller et al, 1997, Geller et al, 1999), at least one POR mutation that changes a residue in the FMN domain from neutral t

  Conflict of interest Introduction Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecological malignancy, and ranks as the fifth leading cause of cancer death among women. The American Cancer Society estimates that about 22,280 new ovarian cancer cases and 14,240 deaths will occur in the United States in

  Despite the absence of disulfide bonds in its linear structure, KT43C displays antifungal and antibacterial activity. Disulfide bonds are determinants of defensins' integrity and have been reported to increase the antimicrobial activity (Jenssen et al., 2006). However, some linear derivatives of AMP

  Incubation of the aortic segments of rats with indomethacin significantly decreased the vasoconstrictor response to Phe but only in HgCl2-treated group (Fig. 9A,B), as indicated by dAUC values (Fig. 9E). Co-treatment with losartan once again proved to be effective and prevented the increased partici

  That increased longevity was not the exclusive result of blood pressure reduction. This was demonstrated by analysis of life-long, whole body deletion of AT1A receptors in normotensive mice. These animals exhibited a very significant increase in lifespan when compared to wild- type mice [159], [160]

  MSG model is well characterized and widely used because it is not influenced by dietary components and because it mimics a lesion in the arcuate nucleus and lateral hypothalamus that can occur in chronic obese patients (Moraes et al., 2009, Purkayasta and Cai, 2013). High fat fed diet is amongst the

  N-terminally extended antigenic peptide precursors that survive cytosolic degradation and enter the ER, need to be further processed by ERAP1 and/or ERAP2, in order to acquire the right length required for MHCI binding. ERAP1 (ERAAP in mouse) is an IFN-γ-inducible, metalloaminopeptidase that trims N

  The clinical impact of our findings is also supported by our earlier report that the level of 12-LOX expression was correlated with the tumor stage and grade [17], [52] and that overall, 38% of patients demonstrated elevated levels of 12-LOX in prostate cancer tissue compared with their matching nor
