  2021-04-16

  

  Arsenic is an endocrine disruptor with estrogenic activity. Further study has shown that arsenic exposure can significantly increase the expression of estrogen receptor-related genes, steroid metabolism-related enzymes and lung cancer-related genes in the lung tissues of female mice on the occurrenc

  The idea of boron-based pro-estrogens has been utilized before; in previous studies, the selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs) tamoxifen and endoxifen have been masked as boronate esters.13, 14, 15 Tamoxifen and endoxifen both target ERα as therapies for breast cancer. The previous work foc

  Materials and methods Results Discussion A reporter of FGF signaling activity has long been sought to facilitate the quantitative real-time analysis of pathway activity at single-cell resolution. Here we report the generation of a Spry4 reporter allele in ESCs and mice that recapitulates kn

  2021-04-16

  

  Constitutive activity of Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK pathway plays a critical role on melanoma growth, thus inhibition of activity of Ras, Raf and MEK can reduce ERK activity, leading to a decrease in melanoma cell proliferation, survival and invasion (Burotto et al., 2014; Paluncic et al., 2016). Our results a

  Considering these reports, and with the aim of further investigating the mechanism by which the cAMP-Epac/PKA pathway activates eNOS, we have performed imaging experiments evaluating the effect of drugs that increase cAMP or modify its signalling pathways (PKA or Epac activators and inhibitors) on b

  2021-04-16

  

  The importance of AAE3 in enhancing the survival of plants and yeast when confronted with certain environmental stresses has been documented in recent reports. In response to biotic stress such as oxalate-secreting micro-organisms, AAE3 was found to reduce the inhibitory growth effects of the secret

  Materials and methods Results Discussion In rodent species, CYP2E1 and CYP2B have been implicated in CCl4 metabolism. In this study, we used expressed human CYP2E1 to show that this enzyme is a high-affinity catalyst responsible for low-dose CCl4 metabolism. Studies employing an inhibitory

  3MI has been detected in wastewater at concentrations of 640–700 μg L−1 (Hwang et al., 1995) and up to 20 mg L−1 in decaying algal water environments (Peller et al., 2014). It is likely that 3MI accumulation in fish might be due to the degradation of endogenous amino acids. The presence of this che

  In contrast, T-bet downregulated the expression of Tfh functional molecules, CD40L, ICOS, and IL-21; accordingly, T-bet overexpression abrogated the helper function of IL-12-stimulated CD4+ T cells. Thus, T-bet seems more involved in the downregulation of the helper functions than in the differentia

  Importantly, piPolB holds a great promise for developing novel biotechnological applications. For instance, in vitro activities of piPolB, namely, strand displacement and faithful, processive DNA polymerization, can be harnessed for efficient primer-independent whole-genome amplification, whereas th

  In this paper, we describe a facile and universal method for in situ crosslinking of DNA micelles, using spherically directed reduction of metal ions. As shown in Scheme 1A, a single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) consisting of a ligand domain, a template domain, and a lipid domain was designed as a monomer t

  Keratin 8 (K8) has been identified as the first intermediate filament expressed during development in amphibians and mammals. In zebrafish, a type II cytokeratin 8 (zf-K8) cDNA has been cloned. zf-K8 gene was maternally inherited and expressed in all surface cells throughout the embryonic stages old

  In this study, we characterized the metabolic function of tra2 in the Drosophila fat body. Similar to the 9G8 phenotype, decreasing tra2 levels in the Drosophila fat body using RNAi resulted in increased starvation resistance and a large increase in triglycerides. This increased storage of triglycer
