  Introduction O6-Methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) is a DNA-repair enzyme that specifically transfers alkyl adducts from the O6 position of guanine to the cysteine residue (Cys145) in its active site. In cancer cells, this ability of MGMT disrupts the cytotoxic actions of alkylating antic

  Conflict of interest statement Introduction Endothelins (ETs) are a family of multifunctional, naturally occurring peptides with long-lasting vasoconstrictor and pressor effects (Zhou et al., 2004). They are synthesized as a large protein, the pre-proET-1 or Big ET-1, which is subsequently cle

  2019-12-04

  

  Celiac disease occurs in the small intestine due to the ingestion of gluten and triggers an immune response by T-cells resulting in tissue remodelling and malnutrition [6]. Earlier studies by many researchers have shown that the prolamins of gluten are the toxic agent for celiac disease, since they

  2019-12-04

  

  Despite the important agronomic traits regulated by SUMO, most research studies on SUMOylation have been mainly limited to model plants, such as Arabidopsis and rice (Wang et al., 2011), due to the lack of molecular tools specific to other economically relevant plants. On the other hand, plants harb

  The lack of effective strategies, aiming to directly increase the neuronal survival, is reflected by the fact that the only available therapeutic interventions are indirect. They consist of acute therapeutic interventions involving chemical and/or surgical removal of the thrombotic clot (Taqi et al.

  A great deal of research has focused on candidate medications to modulate dopaminergic mechanisms through which psychomotor stimulants produce addictive effects, i.e., drugs that expressly target the DA transporter, D1-like receptor, or D2-like receptors., , However, effective dopaminergic-based ph

  Aldehyde dehydrogenase has been characterized as a cancer stem cell marker, which plays a key role in various biological processes in tumor, including cell proliferation, invasiveness and chemoresistance. Recent data of Abourbih et al reported that ALDH1 expression did not correlate with primary tum

  Although many neurotransmitters (e.g., catecholamines, serotonin, and excitatory/inhibitory amino acids) have been implicated in the modulation of anxiety-like responses (Carobrez et al., 2001, Molchanov and Guimaraes, 2002, Vianna et al., 2001), the so-called atypical neurotransmitters, endocannabi

  Social memory is encoded within certain sites, but meaning depends upon an interpretant (such as a tourist) being able to decode the signs. Memorials, such as cemeteries, require some kind of activity by its visitors for their meanings to be activated (Hutchinson, 2009, Winter, 2010). Following Eden

  In the Cu bioassay, notwithstanding the absence of significant Cu bioaccumulation in bulk tissues over the 96-h exposure period (less than 2-fold difference in tissue Cu between controls and the second-highest treatment), T-ChE activity increased with Cu concentration in gill and, to a lesser extent

  Astrocytes play a key role in the brain, as these cells are involved in fluid, ion, pH, and neurotransmitter homeostasis, synapse function, energy and metabolism and blood-brain barrier (BBB) maintenance (Sofroniew and Vinters, 2010). PA is able to activate different damaging responses in astrocytes

  Our work raises the question of how a mechanism for control of developmental potency based on TEs might have evolved. Active TEs are under acute surveillance by cellular pathways that minimize transposition, including by Kap1 (Rowe et al., 2010). In part because of this, and in part because of a los
