  Origin of the vertebrate hexokinase gene family Multiple hexokinases have been found in vertebrates, plants and yeast (Wilson, 1995, Cárdenas et al., 1998). A hexokinase in both vertebrates and yeast has, unfortunately, been named glucokinase. The sharing of the name glucokinase has suggested to

  2022-08-05

  

  The SNPs of candidate genes may exert their effect on associated traits through changing of gene expression (Bonafe et al., 2003, Wyszynska-Koko et al., 2006). In agreement, GHSR SNPs were significantly associated with upregulation of this gene in the pituitary gland of GG/GG chickens. The GHRL/GHSR

  α-Galactosidase (α-Gal, EC 3.2.1.22) is an enzyme exoglycosidase, and the main role of this enzyme is the enzymolysis of α-galactoside. After this hydrolysis, galactosylation of cyclodextrins by the α-galactosidase occurs, thus forming α-galactosyl-cyclodextrin. This branched CD is easy to dissolve

  FPR ligands comprise structurally very diverse N-(p-amylcinnamoyl) mg of compounds, ranging from naturally occurring peptides/proteins or “danger signals” such as PAMPs and DAMPs (see 1.1), respectively, to endogenous lipids and even various synthetic non-peptides, such as benzimidazoles, pyrazolon

  Here, we dissect X chromosome dosage compensation (DC) in C. elegans to determine the effect of chromatin modifications on higher-order chromosome structure during long-range gene regulation. DC is exemplary because it controls hundreds of genes simultaneously, it distinguishes X chromosomes from au

  2022-08-04

  

  Mammals adapt to prolonged periods of food scarcity by releasing FFAs from adipose tissue and transforming them into energy-rich ketone bodies that are used as fuel by brain, muscle, and other organs (Kersten, 2014, Grabacka et al., 2016). Ketogenesis occurs primarily in hepatocytes, but its rate is

  HO-1 acted as an intracellular defender against oxidative stress-induced cell damage. To elucidate the effects of HO-1 in ropivacaine-induced cytotoxicity in neuronal cells, HO-1 activity was inhibited using a specific HO-1 inhibitor zinc protoporphyrin, ZnPP. Our results indicate that ZnPP treatmen

  Hedgehog pathway The Hedgehog pathway (Fig. 1) derives its name from Hh gene mutant Drosophila, which presents a spiked phenotype resembling the animal “hedgehog” [13]. The Hh proteins control embryonic development in vertebrates, where the signaling mechanisms mediated by the proteins are multip

  Discussion The aminoglycoside antibiotic gentamicin continues to be an important agent against life threatening infections. However, nephrotoxicity is a major complication of the gentamicin administration. Thus amelioration of nephrotoxicity would enhance its clinical use. Several approaches invo

  Under most circumstances, NO is a potent endogenous vasodilator. Therefore, its involvement in an endothelium-dependent contraction seems paradoxical, to say the least. Soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC) is the major downstream target of NO; its inhibition results in the lack of vasoconstrictor response

  Furthermore, increased plasma levels of endoglin have been associated with diabetic complications (Valbuena-Diez et al., 2012). The involvement of soluble endoglin in a number of widespread pathologies demonstrates that endoglin is not only marker of endothelial integrity but also a causative factor
