  In addition to the importance of heme as an enzymatic cofactor, heme also acts as an important iron source. In order to access the iron within heme, S. aureus encodes heme degrading enzymes known as heme oxygenases (Skaar et al., 2004b; Wu et al., 2005). The two heme oxygenases encoded by S. aureus,

  In the course of studies leading to the discovery of , modifications at the P3-P4 interface of these tripeptide-based inhibitors were examined with the goal of improving potency while maintaining a PK profile similar to . In this report, we summarize those studies which led to the identification of

  Introduction Although effective hepatitis B virus (HBV) vaccines are in use worldwide, HBV-related liver diseases are still a major public health concern, causing considerable morbidity and mortality. Approximately 257 million people are currently suffering from chronic hepatitis B and 887,000 de

  As a result of the capability of modulating the dynamic changes and rearrangement of cytoskeletons, the Rho GTPases, in which RhoA, Cdc42 and Rac1 are best-characterized, have been highlighted as significant contributors for orchestrating neuronal development (Duman et al., 2015, Heasman and Ridley,

  GPR119 agonistic activity was evaluated for the human GPR119 receptor in a cell-based cAMP assay. The results expressed the potency as EC values and the inherent activity (IA) as percentages which were compared to the test compound with oleoylethanolamide (OEA), an endogenous ligand of GPR119 (defin

  2022-04-16

  

  Recently, a G-protein-coupled receptor, GPR109a, was identified as a molecular target for niacin. Mechanistic studies have suggested that the benefits of niacin therapy may result from the activation of GPR109a located on adipocytes. Recent experiments have shown that niacin activation of GPR109a re

  No other lacZ mutant showed a marked difference in mutation rate between fpg and fpg backgrounds (that is, rates were comparable between HS101 and CSH1191, HS102 and CSH1192, etc.). The number of reversion mutants was much higher in HS1194 than in any other fpg strain. The inclusion of the pTRC99a p

  Conclusions In summary, we have designed an ultrasensitive electrochemical assay for hOGG1 based on a ratiometric strategy and HCR assisted amplification. The hOGG1 can specifically identify 8-oxo G site on the DNA probes modified on the electrode surface. The subsequent cleavage reaction trigger

  Because of the relationship between carbohydrate consumption and chronic diseases such as obesity and type II diabetes (Hu, van Dam, & Liu, 2001), there is mounting interest to evaluate the quality of ITD 1 through analysis by glycemic index (GI) and Englyst assay, for example (Englyst, Kingman, &

  Similarly, both neofunctionalization and subfunctionalization likely occurred for the duplicated proglucagon genes. The change in function of GLP-1 would be a neofunctionalization, however in this case it acquired a redundant function – a function that largely overlaps with glucagon effects in the l

  Discrepancies in the reported results and conclusions from different groups regarding studies in ghrelin−/− and ghsr−/− mice are likely explained by the mixed background of the mutant mice used in the different studies [35]; although in the case of mice exposed to HFD, exposure to a HFD immediately

  2022-04-15

  

  In recent years, it was discovered in animals that certain types of non-apoptotic cell death are strictly dependent on iron and ROS. The term ‘ferroptosis’, derived from the Greek word ‘ptosis’ (falling) and the Latin word ‘ferrum’ (iron), is coined to describe such cell death phenomena. Cytoplasmic
