  Introduction Collagen fibrillogenesis, the assembly of collagen fibers, is a critical process in the development, maturation, and repair of mammalian tissue. Alterations in the structure and amount of deposited collagen fibers can greatly alter the integrity of the whole tissue. Even a single point

  Materials and methods Results and discussion Conclusions Data about the ability of non-conventional ligands to operate class-A GPCRs have been accumulating. Specifically, increasing evidence indicates that oxysterols, oxidized derivatives of cholesterol, are involved in many activities that

  Transparency document Main Text The centrosome is a non-membrane-bound organelle found in most animal cells. It has several important functions, including control of cilia formation, microtubule organization and nucleation, spindle assembly and transport of organelles and vesicles. Centrosomes

  Some mechanistic experiments performed in the early 2000s by Ongusaha et al. [78], suggest that DDR1 induction protects reverse transcriptase inhibitors from apoptosis in a p53-dependent manner, and that impairment of DDR1 expression or function leads to a pronounced increase of DNA damage-induced

  2019-11-04

  

  Apoptosis, type I programmed cell death, is considered to be involved in the pathogenesis of various liver diseases, such as autoimmune hepatitis [[5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10]] and hepatocellular carcinoma [11,12]. Apoptosis is activated by a variety of extrinsic or intrinsic pathways factors. Prev

  2019-11-04

  

  Introduction Neuropathic pain occurs in approximately one-third of patients with diabetes and is refractory to currently available analgesic drugs (Abbott et al., 2011). This painful diabetic neuropathy (PDN) is associated with elevated levels of methylglyoxal (MG; a reactive glucose metabolite) an

  It seems plausible that this ESC-driven effect relies on a paracrine signaling. Numerous studies showed that the Fgf4 (fibroblast growth factor 4)/MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase) pathway is involved in PE differentiation in mouse 87 6 (Chazaud et al., 2006), (Frankenberg et al., 2011), (Gra

  Introduction Proteins play an important role in cellular functions; however, being and remaining properly folded is necessary for their function. Understanding the stability of the protein is necessary to investigate the folding of proteins, as well as their conformation, functions and interactions

  To analyze EBI2 expression and its function in T cells in vivo, we created an EGFP reporter/knockout mouse strain, termed EBI2EGFP. This mouse strain in heterozygous configuration allows for a systematic analysis of the expression of EBI2 in distinct cell types in steady-state and under inflammatory

  Inhibiting APC/C during Interphase and prior to Anaphase Because ubiquitylation by APC/C triggers cell division, it is essential that APC/C is restrained until cells are prepared for its substrates to be degraded. In addition to regulation by phosphorylation, an additional layer of control comes

  DNA hypomethylation has been found in liver tumor and other tumors of humans, such as laryngeal cancer, AZ20 tumors, tongue squamous cell carcinoma and uterine leiomyomas [[20], [21], [22], [23], [24]]. Then, we mainly sought to confirm whether TCA could induce DNA hypomethylation in vitro and the

  2019-11-02

  

  Collagen X is a homotrimeric molecule of three α1(X) chains (Mr 59 kDa) comprising a 45 kDa triple-helical domain flanked by an N-terminal (NC2) and a larger C-terminal (NC1) non-collagenous domains (Shen, 2005). In the hypertrophic ECM, collagen X most likely forms an extended hexagonal network, as

  2019-11-02

  

  Collagen alignment can contribute to tissue stiffening (Malik et al., 2015, Paszek et al., 2005), and ECM stiffness in turn is a powerful activator of integrin function (Levental et al., 2009). These findings highlight the contribution of the mechanical properties of the ECM to signal transduction.
