  2022-04-19

  

  Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) consist of 20 subfamilies in humans, all of which share a common structure consisting of extracellular ligand-binding region, a single-pass transmembrane domain and an intracellular tyrosine kinase domain [2]. Binding of a growth factor to the ligand-binding domain r

  2022-04-19

  

  One may ask whether induced loss, through chemical or genetic perturbation for example, of an essential cellular factor represents regulated cell death or simple loss of the homeostasis needed for life. For example, deletion of the Mdm2 gene, or inhibition of the MDM2 protein, results in cell death

  According to the implication of the endocannabinoid system in IBD, we decided in our laboratory to develop selective CB agonists and FAAH inhibitors to treat these diseases. Recently, we described 3-carboxamido-5-aryl-isoxazoles as selective CB agonists. This series of isoxazoles possesses a 2-subst

  2022-04-19

  

  Our observation that glioblastoma tumor cells express ETA-R in 6/10 cases contrasts with a recent publication reporting ETB-R expression in these tumors [17]. The reason for the discrepancy between that report and the present study might be due to the fact that glioblastomas with oligodendroglial co

  2022-04-19

  

  To our knowledge, the putative role of ET-1 and ETB-R in oligodendroglioma progression was not documented so far. Using primary cultures of grade B oligodendroglial tumor cells, we have here assessed the functionality of ETB-R expression in these tumors. Confocal microscopy analysis confirmed the st

  In 2015, the Joint United Nations Program on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) proposed that by 2020, 90% of people living with HIV should be aware of their HIV status, as the first part of 90-90-90 strategy to end AIDS epidemic. Early detection of HIV allows initiating care for proper treatment, which impacts in m

  2022-04-19

  

  NeuroHIV is initiated by HIV crossing the blood–brain barrier (BBB) to enter the CNS. This is thought to occur primarily via the transmigration of infected CD14+CD16+ monocytes (Williams, 2014), using the monocytes as “Trojan Horses” (Peluso, 1985), although some studies suggest alternate routes of

  2022-04-19

  

  Compared to the other 900 80 receptor subtypes, the H3 receptor exhibits rather complex pharmacology, being subject to extensive splicing, leading to two major (H3-445 and H3-365) and possibly more functional human receptor isoforms; for a comprehensive review please see Leurs et al. (2005) and Bon

  Certainly, the immune relevance of Hippo becomes more complicated and divergent in the vertebrates than in Drosophila. In terms of inflammation of mammalians, the stories are diversified (Fig. 2). Previously, MST1/2 has been well characterized not only as a controller of lymphocytes adhesion and mi

  Egypt has the highest prevalence of HCV worldwide with almost 20% of the population being infected. The HCV subtype 4a belonging to genotype 4 (HCV-4) is the most common genotype in Egypt [25], [26], [27], [28]. The sequence of the NS5A/NS5B junction for the Egyptian genotype 4 is Glu-Asp-Val-Val-Cy

  The Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium was verified in all groups using the chi-square test. Using WINPEPI 11.65, the number of carriers and non-carriers of the Δ32 allele was compared between the groups through the Pearson's chi-square test with Yates's correction. Two-tailed Fisher's test was used when ap

  Patients and methods Results Discussion The positivity of serum anti-HBc is the most commonly used marker to confirm the history of HBV infection. Quantification of serum anti-HBc has been explored as a marker of HBV-induced hepatitis and the adaptive immune response against HBV infection a

  To further investigate the possible interaction of L1 with β1-sGC, a protein-ligand docking experiment was performed. Calculations were carried out with the program GOLD (version 5.2) [18], [34] and performed with the chemPLP scoring function [19], [34]. The ten lowest energy solutions presented a r

  Introduction In the 1980s, nitric oxide (NO) was first characterized as critical to both innate immunity and endogenous signaling in animals [[1], [2], [3], [4], [5]]. NO was the first gaseous signaling molecule synthesized by animals to have its biochemical signaling pathway fully described [2]. P
