Glucosinolate biosynthesis in Eruca sativa
(2016)Glucosinolates (GSLs) are a highly important group of secondary metabolites in the Caparalles order, both due to their significance in plant-biome interactions and to their chemoprotective properties. This study identified ... -
Hypoxia upregulates integrin gene expression in microvascular endothelial cells and promotes their migration and capillary-like tube formation
(2017)Tissue hypoxia affects gene expression through the hypoxia-inducible transcription factors, HIF-1 and HIF-2, in both physiological and pathological angiogenesis. Angiogenesis is a complex response of endothelial cells ... -
IDO decreases glycolysis and glutaminolysis by activating GCN2K, while it increases fatty acid oxidation by activating AhR, thus preserving CD4+ T-cell survival and proliferation
(2018)It is generally hypothesized in the literature that indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), by degrading L-tryptophan along the kynurenine pathway, suppresses CD4+ T-cell function by inducing apoptosis, inhibiting proliferation ... -
In human alloreactive CD4+ T-cells, dichloroacetate inhibits aerobic glycolysis, induces apoptosis and favors differentiation towards the regulatory T-cell subset instead of effector T-cell subsets
(2016)Although kidney transplantation is the best therapy for end-stage renal disease, rejection remains a concern, and currently available immunosuppressive agents contribute to morbidity and mortality. Thus, novel immunosuppressive ... -
In human cell cultures, everolimus is inferior to tacrolimus in inhibiting cellular alloimmunity, but equally effective as regards humoral alloimmunity
(2017)Purpose: Acute cellular rejection is the major cause of immune-mediated graft failure early in the course of kidney transplantation, whereas chronic antibody-mediated rejection is a major contributor to graft loss in the ... -
Indoleamine 2, 3-dioxygenase Up-regulates Hypoxia-inducible Factor-1α Expression by degrading l-Tryptophan but not its activity in human alloreactive t-cells
(2018)Indoleamine 2, 3-dioxygenase (IDO) suppresses T-cell function at least in part by altering cell metabolism. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) increases upon T-cell activation and alters cell metabolism favoring their ... -
Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase downregulates T-cell receptor complex ζ-chain and c-Myc, and reduces proliferation, lactate dehydrogenase levels and mitochondrial glutaminase in human T-cells
(2016)Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), through L-tryptophan depletion, activates general control non-derepressible (GCN) 2 kinase and suppresses T-cell proliferation, in addition to suppressing aerobic glycolysis and glutaminolysis, ... -
The labdane diterpene sclareol (labd-14-ene-8, 13-diol) induces apoptosis in human tumor cell lines and suppression of tumor growth in vivo via a p53-independent mechanism of action
(2011)The labdane diterpene sclareol has demonstrated significant cytotoxicity against human tumor cell lines and human colon cancer xenografts. Therefore, there is need to elucidate the mode of action of this compound as very ... -
Marine bromophenol bis(2,3,6-tribromo-4, 5-dihydroxybenzyl)ether inhibits angiogenesis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells and reduces vasculogenic mimicry in human lung cancer a549 cells
(2021)Angiogenesis, including the growth of new capillary blood vessels from existing ones and the malignant tumors cells formed vasculogenic mimicry, is quite important for the tumor metastasis. Anti-angiogenesis is one of the ... -
Methods to measure water permeability
(2017)Water permeability is a key feature of the cell plasma membranes and it has seminal importance for a number of cell functions such as cell volume regulation, cell proliferation, cell migration, and angiogenesis to name a ... -
The muscarinic antagonist gallamine induces proliferation of airway smooth muscle cells regardless of the cell phenotype
(2019)Background: Muscarinic receptor antagonists are a usual treatment for chronic airway diseases, with increased bronchoconstriction, like asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. These diseases are usually accompanied ... -
Natural histogel-based bio-scaffolds for sustaining angiogenesis in beige adipose tissue
(2019)In the treatment of obesity and its related disorders, one of the measures adopted is weight reduction by controlling nutrition and increasing physical activity. A valid alternative to restore the physiological function ... -
Neuromuscular electrical stimulation promotes development in mice of mature human muscle from immortalized human myoblasts
(2016)Background: Studies of the pathogenic mechanisms underlying human myopathies and muscular dystrophies often require animal models, but models of some human diseases are not yet available. Methods to promote the engraftment ... -
Novel diarylamides and diarylureas with N-substitution dependent activity against medulloblastoma
(2021)Medulloblastoma – highly aggressive and heterogeneous tumours of the cerebellum – account for 15–20% of all childhood brain tumours, and are the most common high-grade childhood embryonal tumour of the central nervous ... -
Proliferative and chondrogenic potential of mesenchymal stromal cells from pluripotent and bone marrow cells
(2020)Summary. Introduction. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) can be derived from a wide range of fetal and adult sources including pluripotent stem cells (PSCs). The properties of PSC-derived MSCs need to be fully characterized, ... -
The role of hypoxia-inducible factor-2 alpha in angiogenesis
(2018)Angiogenesis is a key enabling feature of mammalian embryonic development and tumor progression, which provides oxygen and nutrients that are required for vessel growth and tumor cell growth, respectively. Hypoxia is a ... -
The role of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase in renal tubular epithelial cells senescence under anoxia or reoxygenation
(2021)Ischemia-reperfusion injury is the commonest form of acute kidney injury (AKI). Tubular epithelial cell senescence contributes to incomplete recovery from AKI and predisposes to subsequent chronic kidney disease. In cultures ... -
Silencing of caveolin-1 in fibroblasts as opposed to epithelial tumor cells results in increased tumor growth rate and chemoresistance in a human pancreatic cancer model
(2019)Caveolin-1 (Cav-1) expression has been shown to be associated with tumor growth and resistance to chemotherapy in pancreatic cancer. The primary aim of this study was to explore the significance of Cav-1 expression in ... -
