  ATX–LPA pathway in animal models of rheumatoid arthritis Several animal models have been used to characterize the mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of arthritis and to test new therapeutic strategies.

  If the lack of specificity and the high pleiotropy may represent a problem in view of the potential chemotherapeutic features of autophagy-inducing agents, it 745 may switch into an advantage in the case of chemopreventive strategies. In fact, as non-pharmacologic interventions such as limited calo

  Based on the results of studies done to-date, there are three characteristics that make a letrozole-based protocol attractive for use in cattle: 1) it is steroid-free, 2) it is cost-effective and requires a shorter time and fewer animal handlings than conventional methods (Table 1), and 3) it may ha

  Materials and methods Results RT-PCR showed that both arginase 1 and 2 were expressed in the OB of Korean roe deer (Fig. 1). Immunoblotting detected arginase 1 in the OB of roe deer (Fig. 2A, left lane) at a molecular weight of approximately 37kDa, which is the size of the enzyme in the rat O

  The objectives of this study were to investigate 1) the mRNA and protein expression of apelin and APJ in porcine ovarian follicles of different sizes, and their immunolocalization and concentrations in follicular fluid and ovarian follicle, and 2) the direct effect of recombinant human apelin-13 on

  The subnuclear localizations of redox regulators is also largely unknown. The potential role of thiol reductases as transcription regulators or DNA repair molecules may suggest an association to DNA. In this way, the presence of a zinc finger domain potentially involved in protein/DNA interactions

  Since E2 was shown to affect the expression of Hsps, the transcript expression levels of another 11 Hsps were also evaluated by real-time PCR with their specific primers. The transcripts of 4 proteins (Hsp10, Hsp56, Hsp70a and Hsp110) were significantly up-regulated, but that of Hsp47 was significan

  The Irbesartan Diabetic Nephropathy Trial enrolled patients with type 2 diabetes, proteinuria of at least 0.9 g/24 h, BP >135/85 mmHg and moderate kidney impairment (creatinine 88 to 265 µmol/L in women or 106 to 265 µmol/L in men). Patients were randomized to receive irbesartan (titrated from 75 to

  Further validation for a role in 12/15-LOX pathway in mediating adipocyte function comes from studies revealing a regulatory role of lipocalin-2 on 12/15-LOX activity. Lipocalin-2, a glycoprotein member of the lipocalin superfamily, is a novel abundant adipokine implicated in obesity-mediated inflam

  The clinical impact of our findings is also supported by our earlier report that the level of 12-LOX expression was correlated with the tumor stage and grade [17], [52] and that overall, 38% of patients demonstrated elevated levels of 12-LOX in prostate cancer tissue compared with their matching nor

  Secondly, as pointed out by Sulentic and Kaminski in their recent paper [90], most of the AhR literature to date has focused on mouse AhR. Although both mouse and human AhR are interchangeable in many in vitro systems, the in vivo ligand binding affinity is drastically different between the two AhRs

  The AHR functions in the immune system – a tsunami of exciting findings The research of recent years has convincingly established an important function of the AHR in linking chemical environmental cues to immune responses [21,22], and reviewed in [1,23]. As a side effect, a view of the AHR as “Th

  APN accounts for 0.01% of total plasma proteins in humans; this proportion increases with age to a small extent (Barb et al., 2007). Normal APN levels in the circulation range 3–30μg/mL (Aprahamian and Sam, 2011). APN levels are lower in men than women due to the presence of testosterone and even mo

  A previous study reported that the serotonergic mechanism was involved in the psychological stress-induced alteration in synaptic plasticity in the rat hippocampal CA1 field (Matsumoto et al., 2004).

  ADOR immunoreactivity was high in parasympathetically-innervated smooth muscle, namely the iris sphincter muscle and the ciliary muscle. No ADOR immunoreactivity was noted in the sympathetically-innervated iris dilator muscle. Immunoreactivity against all four ADORs was noted in the ciliary epitheli
