  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

  2021-08-10

  

  Transduction of cellular signals by G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) is stringently regulated to prevent the deleterious effects of unrestrained GPCR signaling. The rapid termination of signaling mediated by agonist-occupied GPCRs is referred to as homologous desensitization and involves the foll

  Co-operation or synergy between PKA and Epac has been recently reported in PCCL3 thyroid cell line in which cAMP is pro-mitogenic, in cpi-613 to VSMC [19]. Our study demonstrates for the first time that PKA and Epac also synergise to inhibit cell proliferation in a cell type where cAMP in anti-mitog

  We should also note that, although AOAA is not a specific H2S inhibitor, its inhibitory effect on l-cysteine-induced relaxations are related to H2S since addition of AOAA to another H2S inhibitor PAG did not provide a further inhibition of these relaxations in penile tissue [37]. In our study, the c

  To our knowledge, this is the first report of an oncocytoma expressing alpha-enolase or causing autoimmune retinopathy and optic neuropathy. Although generally considered benign, oncocytomas have rarely been associated with paraneoplastic syndromes, including tumor-induced hypertension, erythrocytos

  A major physiological action of ET-1 is to function as one of the most powerful vasoconstrictors of human blood vessels. As such, ET-1 plays a major role in regulating vascular function in all organ systems, including the kidney (Fig. 1). As in other vessels, ET-1 is thought to be released from en

  Dysfunction of the ubiquitin-proteasome system causes abnormal organelle morphology and impairs sperm formation and maturation steps resulting in male infertility [[7], [8], [9]]; this indicates that ubiquitination is essential for spermatogenesis and sperm function during fertilization. β-catenin i

  Diabetic retinopathy is a chronic inflammatory disease. Local inflammation plays a pivotal role in the pathological development and progression of this disease [24]. In addition to TNF-α, several other cytokines, chemokines, and other factors such as IL-1β, IL-6, and C-reactive protein have been ind

  A second advance came with the discovery that conformationally-flexible benzamide analogs having an N-phenylpiperazine moiety possessed good affinity and modest selectivity for D3 versus D2 receptors [3,[14], [15], [16]]. This observation spawned a significant effort by medicinal chemists to develop

  Although there was little to no expression change observed by TELI of the recA and ruvA genes upon CAA exposure, other specific repair pathways were induced by both CAA and SO and include the SOS-inducible gene sulA, the DNA repair gene ykfG, the mismatch repair gene mutS, the recombination and repa

  Dexamethasone (DEX), a potent synthetic glucocorticoid drug, is effective for treatment of a range of inflammatory and autoimmune conditions as well as the reduction of side effects associated with chemotherapy. On the Czech Republic pharmaceutical market, DEX is incorporated into eighteen drugs use

  Enolase, as a plasminogen receptor and activator localized on the surface of several helminths, can interact with the host fibrinolytic system (Yang et al., 2010, Du et al., 2009, de la Torre-Escudero et al., 2010). The enzyme is also one of excretory/secretory (ES) products in some helminths, such
