  2020-12-21

  

  Henderson et al. [20] reported that allergen-induced airway remodeling was blocked by the CysLT1 receptor antagonist montelukast. The development of epithelial thickening and mucus accumulation at relatively small bronchi was also suppressed by montelukast. The CysLT2 receptor antagonist BayCysLT2RA

  2020-12-21

  

  Natural and synthetic glucocorticoids perform their biological action in the organism through receptor-dependent mechanisms (e.g., by binding to the glucocorticoid receptors). It has been determined that glucocorticoid receptors cross-talk with other nuclear receptors, including AhR (Celander et al.

  Located on the fore-tarsals of the front pair of legs, the Haller’s organ is presumed central to tick chemosensation. Recent genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic investigations have identified several families of transmembrane proteins in the forelegs of ticks that are likely involved in olfactory

  2020-12-21

  

  The genetic basis of resistance to dieldrin has been described for several insect species as a mutation in the transmembrane domain II of the GABA-Cl or rdl (resistance to dieldrin) gene (ffrench-Constant et al., 2004; Bass et al., 2004; Du et al., 2005). A mutation in the GABA-Cl gene was found at

  2020-12-21

  

  Immune modulation by steroid hormones is a rather new aspect of the research on endocrine interactions in lower vertebrates (Harris and Bird, 2000). In the classical view, steroids exert their effects by binding to specific intracellular receptors that function as ligand-activated transcriptional re

  In a recent report, Yoshihara and colleagues (2016) used transcriptomes derived from freshly isolated islets of 2-week-old neonatal, 6-week-old young adult, or 12-week-old adult mice to interrogate how maturation is regulated to acquire glucose responsiveness. The authors observed that estrogen-rela

  Here, two labs that helped characterize these two pathways have worked together to further test whether these apparently parallel pathways from β-AR to CaMKII-RyR might be related in series. Much of the work leading to the Epac pathway involved measurement of Ca sparks as an index of SR Ca leak, oft

  It is without doubt that the vagina plays a significant role in the perception of coital stimulation leading to sexual arousal and, finally, orgasm. In response to sensory stimulation, relaxation of vaginal vascular and nonvascular smooth muscle occurs, resulting in an increase in local blood flow a

  2020-12-18

  

  The molecular mechanisms regulating the differentiation of Th1 versus Tfh alltrans from IL-12-stimulated CD4+ T cells remain largely uncharacterized in humans. This topic has been extensively studied in mice (Weinmann, 2014), because IL-12 stimulation promotes mouse naive CD4+ T cells to express bo

  Protein degradation via UPP involves two steps. One step is the conjugation of multiple ubiquitin to a substrate. The other step is the degradation of tagged protein by the downstream 26S proteasome complex. Protein ubiquitination is the E1–E2–E3 enzymatic cascade (Hershko & Ciechanover, 1998). E1-a

  Current therapeutic interventions are directed both to prevent (primarily by proper glycemic control) and to treat the advanced stages of diabetic retinopathy, when vision has already been significantly affected. Although these therapies can be very effective in preventing, delaying or reducing visi

  The second DDR1-binding partner identified here, Shp-2, which was not found in the two-hybrid screen but using a bioinformatics approach, is also a mediator of cell migration. Since Shp-2 has two SH2 domains, as well as phosphotyrosine phosphatase enzymatic activity and two C-terminal tyrosines targ
