  Introduction Psoriasis is a chronic, recurrent and inflammatory skin disease, and it is characterized by erythema, skin hyperplasia, scales, and hyperproliferation of keratinocyte [1]. It is reported that the psoriasis occurrences are about 3% worldwide [2], but the number varies depending on ethni

  2019-10-18

  

  Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs) are major components of the extracellular matrix in cartilage. Each CSPG comprises a single core protein and attached chondroitin sulfate (CS), belonging to the glycosaminoglycan family of sugar chains. CSPGs and CS are involved in numerous biological and

  Ultrasound is an acoustic wave with a frequency >20 kHz that needs a medium to propagate [20]. Accompanied by the spread of an ultrasonic wave, a series of alternating cycles of compression and rarefaction emerge in the liquid medium. During the rarefaction cycle, microbubbles are formed because of

  A previous pharmacokinetic study of curcumin in mice demonstrated that curcumin could not be detected in plasma after a single oral dose of 75 mg/kg of curcumin. After 4-months administration of 75 and 300 mg/kg of curcumin, plasma levels of curcumin and THC were 0.095 and 0.465 μM and 0.025 and 0.1

  Generally, glycines (and other small residues such as alanine) present in a helical GxxxG-motif that are facing the same side of the helix form a uniform surface that enables direct contact with a second helix. Crystal structures of multipass membrane proteins have demonstrated that GxxxG-motifs are

  The inhibition of NPY cleavage may also contribute to the effect of gliptins on blood pressure [123]: NPY is an agonist of Y1 receptor mediating peripheral vasoconstriction. Interestingly, blood pressure in adult SHRs was not affected by single dose administration of a specific DPP-4i whereas blood

  2019-10-17

  

  During these processes, meiotic recombination plays a critical role by physically associating homologs and ensures accurate chromosome segregation. In addition, meiotic recombination redistributes genetic material between homologs, resulting in haplotype diversity among progeny, impacting ecological

  The TELI results of DNA damage responses to CAA and SO then informed our choice of bacterial strains in subsequent experiments. We investigated E. coli cellular survival in response to CAA and SO exposure by determining the sensitivity of a number of E. coli strains, each possessing single or multip

  Electron transfer pathway Intramolecular (or inter-domain) electron transfer (IET) in CDH has been studied in much depth [], and similar IET occurs in CcPDH, from the PQQ cofactor in the AA12 domain to the heme b in the AA8 domain. When two kinds of electron acceptors are used for measuring enzym

  The two isoforms LDH-A and LDH-B catalyze the same reaction, conversion of pyruvate to lactate at the end of glycolysis. LDH-A is expressed in the liver. Humans with a hereditary deficiency of the A or B LDH isoforms are free of symptoms, except for muscle rigidity and myoglobinuria following strenu

  Apart from neutrophil-mediated inflammation, the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines from PGD2/CRTH2 activated macrophages could further aggravate LPS-induced lung injury (Eguchi et al., 2011; Jandl et al., 2016). Interestingly, genetic ablation of CRTH2 diminishes the TNF-α prod

  Introduction The dorsal periaqueductal gray matter (dPAG) is a midbrain site markedly involved in fear/anxiety-evoked responses as well as in nociception (see, for example, Bandler and Carrive, 1988, Deakin and Graeff, 1991, Fardin et al., 1984a, Fardin et al., 1984b, Litvin et al., 2007). Chemic

  Based on the ability of CRF to modulate nociception, we hypothesized that stress leads to hyperalgesia by the activation of CRF1 and/or CRF2 receptors in the spinal cord. We tested this hypothesis using an acute forced swim as a widely used and easily reproducible stressor and grip force as a measur

  Discussion Immune response to CMV is a series cell-mediated immune response initiated by innate innate NK cells, followed by adaptive CD8+ and CD4+ T cells and humoral immunity by B cell [3]. Prior to transplant, measurement of humoral immune responses (CMV serology) of donor and recipient is com
