  HER2 proto-oncogene The erbB2 gene, located on the short arm of chromosome 17, was discovered and cloned in 1983 (Fig. 1) (Sato et al., 1983). The product of this gene, HER2, is a transmembrane glycoprotein of 185 KDa that consists of three main domains: an extracellular, a transmembrane and an i

  Recently, CFS has been included in the group “low cystine and glutamine syndromes,” which are characterized by a combination of abnormally low plasma levels of these two aminoacids, as well as reduced natural killer cell activity, and increased rates of urea production [13]. Some studies indicated

  2022-05-06

  

  Ras small GTPases are critical molecular switches that connect extracellular signals to intracellular signaling pathways initiated by membrane receptors, such as growth factor receptors and G protein-coupled receptors (Simanshu et al., 2017). When shifting between active GTP-bound and inactive GDP-b

  2022-05-06

  

  Lactate metabolism L-Lactate is an intermediate metabolite in glucose metabolism. Glucose can be broken down to pyruvate, and pyruvate can be either further oxidized to acetyl-CoA and enter the TCA cycle, or reduced to L-lactate by lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). In turn, LDH can oxidize L-lactate t

  To gain insights for further improvement of the agonistic activity, we compared the structural features of the -carbamate piperidine moiety in with that of the spirocyclic moiety in –. Obviously, the substituent corresponding to an isopropyl group on the -carbamate in was lacking in the spirocycli

  2022-05-06

  

  Trypanosomatid GLO2 enzymes are monomeric and contain a zinc–iron binuclear metal center (Irsch and Krauth-Siegel, 2004, Silva et al., 2008), similar to all other glyoxalases II. As mentioned, in T. brucei there are two GLO2 genes but only one encodes an enzyme with glyoxalase II activity (Irsch and

  Transcriptional/translational modulators. The discovery that β-lactam antibiotics like ceftriaxone enhance the in vivo expression of EAAT2/GLT-1 [31] has pioneered a completely new approach to EAAT modulation, with several additional EAAT activators following in its trail (Figure 2b) [32, 33, 34•, 3

  2022-05-05

  

  The glucokinase protein sequence is most closely related to the C-terminal domain of 100kD hexokinases, thus for glucokinase to evolve from a larger hexokinase ancestor it must have lost its N-terminal kinase domain. The genetic mechanism by which this occurred is currently unknown. Here we propose

  Taken together, our results show that, at least in the in vitro cell line model, methylation within the proximal promoter region of GHSR is an important determinant of its expression; however, to determine whether this represents a physiologically and or pathophysiologically relevant event, further

  Next, we investigated the transfer of peptides and proteins between contacting cells by nano-LC-MS/MS analysis using the fractions corresponding to molecules higher than 3 kDa. The MS data analysis revealed the direct transfer of several labelled peptides between receivers and donors. Labelled pepti

  2022-05-05

  

  A group of small molecule with a more promising therapeutic mechanism are known as γ-secretase modulators (GSMs), which modulate the cleavage activity of γ-secretase (and likely a host of other substrates) and specifically reduce the levels of the fibrillogenic Aβ42 peptide without altering the ε-si

  Albumin is the major carrier of free fatty acids (FFAs) in plasma [59], and harbours seven binding sites that are common to FFAs with a range of chain-lengths (C10-C18) across its three domains (Fig. 1a) [60,61]. In vitro, saturated, mono- and poly-unsaturated FFAs, with chain lengths ranging from C

  In principle, an ideal Fenton reaction element should have multiple oxidation states to form a redox cycle in the process of H2O2 decomposition to HO•. Although iron is very effective in catalyzing Fenton reaction, it requires a low pH value (pH 2-4) to reach the optimal catalytic efficiency, which

  In cardiomyocytes mechanical stress builds up via FAs and the related costamere structures, and excessive stress can cause cardiac hypertrophy. Cardoso et al.
