  Introduction The COMT gene is located on chromosomal band 22q11.2, extends over 28 kb, contains six exons, and encodes for catechol-O-methyl-transferase (Weinshilboum and Raymond, 1977; Grossman et al., 1992; Lundström et al., 1995; Bearden et al., 2005). This enzyme plays a major role in regulatio

  Experimental Procedures Author Contributions Acknowledgments Introduction Estrogen-related receptors (ERRα, ERRβ, and ERRγ) are orphan nuclear receptors whose physiological ligands have not yet been identified. Although ERRs are closely related to estrogen receptors (ERs) they do not res

  2020-06-17

  

  Given the important regulatory roles Ub signaling pathways play in eukaryotes, bacterial pathogens and viruses have evolved elaborate mechanisms to hijack host Ub signaling pathways and evade the immune response. This is highlighted by the numerous E3 Ub ligases and spectrum of DUBs encoded by bacte

  Currently, phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE-5) inhibitors are used widely as the first- line oral treatment for erectile dysfunction of varying causes. Radical prostatectomy for the treatment of prostate cancer is frequently associated with erectile dysfunction, and this type of erectile dysfunction is

  During the past decades HT had been widely prescribed with the expectation of both osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease prevention. The results of the Women\'s Health Initiative (WHI) trial, however, indicated that long-term HT use is associated with a small but significant increase of cardiovasc

  2020-06-16

  

  In addition to vasoconstrictor actions (acute effects), ET-1 exerts potent mitogenic actions on vascular smooth muscle cells and cardiac myocytes (chronic effects), hence causing vascular and cardiac hypertrophy [19,24,25]. These effects are mediated via stimulation of either ETA or ETB receptors, a

  Among the ~Ub interactions observed in the HOIP structure is one that involves a RING2 domain (from the non-cognate HOIP) [47]. A similar binding interaction was defined between HHARI RING2 and the hydrophobic patch on Ub by NMR [54]. HHARI RING2 mutations that ablate the interaction inhibit formati

  ICT is a product of icariin via the metabolism of intestinal bacteria with estrogen-like activities [33]. ICT as a bone-protecting agent can enhance osteoblast differentiation while suppressing osteoclastic differentiation in vitro [19], and stimulate osteogenic differentiation and inhibit adipogene

  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

  In vitro work by us and others revealed that high affinity interaction with collagen requires dimerization and/or pre-oligomerization of DDR1 (Agarwal et al., 2007, Abdulhussein et al., 2008, Leitinger, 2003). It has also been reported that a significant percentage of the DDR1 population forms ligan

  Nevertheless, two problems exist in BGCFC in practice. The first one is that time complexity of the ID assignment algorithm presented in Section 3.1 is O(N!), which means a factorial time complexity. Because it obtains the consecutive IDs by enumerating all permutations of ID 0 to N−1, the total num
