  EBI2 and its ligand(s) EBI2 was found in a screen of upregulated genes in human B cells upon infection with EBV [1]. EBI2 is a G-protein (Gαi type) coupled receptor [2] but as long as 18 years after its discovery the nature of its ligand remained undisclosed. With the help of transfected cell lines

  DGKδ is highly expressed in skeletal muscle [7], which is a primary target of insulin for glucose disposal [14]. Notably, Chibalin et al. reported that DGKδ contributes to hyperglycemia-induced peripheral insulin resistance and that decreased protein levels of DGKδ in skeletal muscle attenuated gluc

  The only in vivo evidence for a role of DDR2 in fibrotic disease showed that DDR2 knockout mice exhibited exaggerated severity of chronic hepatic fibrosis. Although a previous in vitro study has demonstrated that DDR2 promotes lung fibroblast proliferation and migration, till now it remains unclear

  2021-01-15

  

  In the present study, we used a new luminescent method to measure CYP activity with Luciferin-ME as a substrate which is used for wide ranges of mammalian CYPs, including CYP1A2, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2J2, CYP4A11, and CYP4F3B. As a result, no significant modulations of CYP activities in B[a]P exposure

  We next considered the mechanism of the hepatospecific decrease in CYP3A exerted by EGCG. We examined the possibility that orally administered EGCG was absorbed from the intestine and directly decreased the CYP3A expression level in the liver. Although the ITE rate of orally administered EGCG is low

  As described above, we designed and synthesized a new 1,4-di-substituted isoquinoline lead compound, and was identified as a ligand with moderate potency for the CRTH2 receptor. We initially we examined the effects of the steric factor of R group on the CRTH2 binding potency (). When the methyl gro

  We further examined our hypothesis that the activation of CRF and CCK systems is responsible for the enhanced anxiety-like behavior induced by immobilization stress using two antagonists to block the expression of CRF1 and CCK2 receptors. It was found that CCK2 receptor antagonist CR2945 or CRF1 ant

  2021-01-15

  

  Methylated CpGs can recruit transcriptional co-repressors to prevent transcription factors (TFs) from promoting gene expression by tightly packing AS-1404 structures [38]. Two CpG islands in the IPT5b promoter region showed higher methylation level in M9 rootstock compared to Mr (Fig. 3b). However,

  Recently, we have created CRISPR/Cas9-mediated col14a1a knockout fish to interrogate the function of col14a1a during regeneration using the caudal fin model. Using AFM, we showed that collagen XIV-A transiently acts as a molecular spacer responsible for BM biomechanics possibly by helping laminins i

  This structure guided the variation of the compounds aiming either at enhanced interaction with CK1 or to exclude interaction with CK1 (R=Me, 15). We chose the 5-cloro substituted oxoindole as backbone as it is supposed to show enhanced metabolic stability, which is commonly used in medicinal chemis

  In the present study we examined whether the gene for estrogen receptor alpha, Esr1, plays a role in the expression of maternal memory in female rats. The approach utilized a newly developed rat Esr1 knockout (KO) rat model (Rumi et al., 2014) to evaluate whether deletion of the Esr1 Berberine hydro

  A French cohort study reported that micronized progesterone or didrogesterone used with oral or percutaneous estradiol showed no increase or decrease in the risk of breast cancer compared to synthetic progestins for at least 4 years of treatment [22] and even after 8 years [23]. Although the results

  Why are Tfh cell dynamics so fundamentally different in naive and immune animals? Initially, GC dog is super cute must pass stringent affinity and specificity checkpoints to ensure only high-affinity non-self-reactive cells are selected. Therefore, restricting primary Tfh cells with the greatest hel
