  Structure and function of EPAC isoforms EPACs are guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) for the Ras-like GTPases Rap1 and Rap2 [9]. There are two mammalian EPAC isoforms, EPAC1 and EPAC2 1, 2 (Figure 1). Whereas EPAC1 displays a wide tissue distribution, the expression of EPAC2 is more restr

  A major open question in the field of lipid mediators is the molecular nature of the PLA2 enzyme involved in the release of DHA and related omega-3 fatty acids from phospholipids as a first committed step for the generation of SPMs. Although by analogy with AA it is often assumed that cPLA2α may ser

  Many studies have documented that enolase acts as a plasminogen-binding protein and this interaction is involved in the tissue invasion and pathogenicity of the causative agents (Almeida et al., 2004; Avilan et al., 2000; Marcilla et al., 2007; Mundodi et al., 2008; Vanegas et al., 2007).

  Given that CE plays an essential role in schistosome invasion, its immunoreactivity and protective potential is of significant interest. The native form of SmCE was found to be poorly immunogenic in immunized mice. An earlier study found that sera from S. mansoni patients have shown the presence of

  Based on the above background, gliptins may exert natriuretic and diuretic effects as well [[112], [119]]. In accordance with this, Girardi and co-workers have demonstrated a physical interplay between DPP-4 and the NHE3 exchanger in the brush-border epithelium of the proximal renal tubule, suggesti

  It is reported that sympathetic nerve activity is increased in the SHR strain compared with that in the WKY strain (Judy and Farrell, 1979, Lundin et al., 1984, Sugimura et al., 2008) and NA content is increased in the CB of the New Zealand strain of hypertensive rat compared with that in normotens

  Introduction Diacylglycerol kinase (DGK) is a lipid-metabolizing enzyme that phosphorylates diacylglycerol (DG) to produce phosphatidic CHAPS (PA) [[1], [2], [3], [4]]. DG and PA act as lipid second messengers in a wide variety of biological processes. Ten DGK isozymes (α, β, γ, δ, η, κ, ε, ζ, ι,

  Concluding remarks A crucial step in the microbial degradation of steroids is the 1(2)-dehydrogenation of the steroid nucleus by FAD-dependent Δ1-KSTDs. This step is required to initiate the opening of the steroid nucleus under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions. A large variety of steroid-deg

  In conclusion, we developed a new CysLT1 and CysLT2 receptors-mediated anaphylaxis guinea pig model that can be useful for screening both CysLT2 receptor and CysLT1/2 receptor antagonists. In addition, we have shown that the dual CysLT1/2 receptor antagonist ONO-6950 can exert protective effect agai

  The pyrrolo[2,1-][1,4]benzodiazepines (PBDs) are a family of antitumour antibiotics that includes the natural products anthramycin and DC-81. They exert their cytotoxicity by covalently bonding to the exocyclic C2–NH group of guanine residues in the minor groove of DNA through their N10–C11 imine fu

  We also found downregulation of TRIM32 in the hearts of dilated and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy patients in addition to TAC and phenylephrine treated mice [51]. TRIM32 and Dysbindin are known to interact in skeletal muscle, and we could confirm this interaction in cardiomyocytes as well. In cardiomy

  The pseudo DUBs KIAA0157 and Abraxas are required for the catalytic function of BRCC36. Comparison of the BRCC36–KIAA0157 heterodimer structure with an inactive BRCC36 homodimer structure provides a model for understanding how this functional interplay is achieved.
