Approaching reactive species in the frame of their clinical significance: A toxicological appraisal
(2020)Redox biology and toxicology are interrelated fields that have produced valuable evidence regarding the role and clinical significance of reactive species. These issues are analyzed herein by presenting 6 arguments, as ... -
Apremilast increases IL-10-producing regulatory B cells and decreases proinflammatory T cells and innate cells in psoriatic arthritis and psoriasis
(2019)Objectives: Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and psoriasis are immune-mediated inflammatory diseases sharing common immunological mechanisms. Regulatory B cells (Breg cells) producing IL-10 (B10 cells), a critical anti-inflammatory ... -
Blocking of interleukin-10 receptor - A novel approach to stimulate T-helper cell type 1 responses to hepatitis C virus
(2005)Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is associated with weak CD4+ T-helper type 1 reactivity and enhanced interleukin-10 production to HCV antigens. Here we demonstrate in vitro that monoclonal antibody-induced blockade ... -
Brattleboro rats have impaired apical membrane water permeability regulation in the outer medullary collecting duct principal cells
(2016)Vasopressin (AVP) regulates the body salt-water balance. Brattleboro rats carry an AVP gene mutation resulting in a recessive form of central diabetes insipidus, being ideal for AVP deficiency studies. Herein, we studied ... -
Computational genomic analysis of PARK7 interactome reveals high BBS1 gene expression as a prognostic factor favoring survival in malignant pleural mesothelioma
(2015)The aim of our study was to assess the differential gene expression of Parkinson protein 7 (PARK7) interactome in malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) using data mining techniques to identify novel candidate genes that may ... -
Curcumin mediates attenuation of pro-inflammatory interferon γ and interleukin 17 cytokine responses in psoriatic disease, strengthening its role as a dietary immunosuppressant
(2020)Curcumin exhibits anti-inflammatory properties and has been used for centuries in traditional medicine and as dietary supplement. Data from clinical trials has strengthened the notion that curcumin may exert an anti-inflammatory ... -
Decoding the reproductive system of the olive fruit fly, Bactrocera oleae
(2021)In most diploid organisms, mating is a prerequisite for reproduction and, thus, critical to the maintenance of their population and the perpetuation of the species. Besides the importance of understanding the fundamentals ... -
Diagnostic and clinical significance of Crohn's disease-specific pancreatic anti-GP2 and anti-CUZD1 antibodies
(2016)Background: Pancreatic autoantibodies (PAB) targeting GP2 and CUZD1 are Crohn's disease (CrD)-markers. The clinical significance of anti-GP2 antibodies has been assessed, but that of anti-CUZD1 remains elusive. The aim of ... -
Discovery Strategies of bioactive compounds synthesized by nonribosomal peptide synthetases and type-I polyketide synthases derived from marine microbiomes
(2016)Considering that 70% of our planet's surface is covered by oceans, it is likely that undiscovered biodiversity is still enormous. A large portion of marine biodiversity consists of microbiomes. They are very attractive ... -
Effect of polyphenols from coffee and grape on gene expression in myoblasts
(2018)Coffee and grape contain various bioactive compounds like polyphenols that may exert beneficial effects, especially antioxidant activity, on human health upon consumption. However, the molecular mechanisms through which ... -
Episomal vectors based on S/MAR and the β-globin Replicator, encoding a synthetic transcriptional activator, mediate efficient γ-globin activation in haematopoietic cells
(2019)We report the development of episomal vectors for the specific γ-globin transcription activation in its native position by activator Zif-VP64, based on the Scaffold/Matrix Attachment Region (S/MAR) for episomal retention ... -
Expression of AGPAT2, an enzyme involved in the glycerophospholipid/triacylglycerol biosynthesis pathway, is directly regulated by HIF-1 and promotes survival and etoposide resistance of cancer cells under hypoxia
(2018)Hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) supports survival of normal cells under low oxygen concentration and cancer cells in the hypoxic tumor microenvironment. This involves metabolic reprogramming via upregulation of glycolysis, ... -
Expression profile of the GA733 gene family in colorectal cancer: Correlation with clinicopathological parameters
(2015)GA733-1/-2/-3 genes have been detected in various types of cancer, although their role has not been fully clarified. GA733-2 and GA733-1 have been correlated with lymph node metastases in laryngeal cancer and liver metastases, ... -
Genome-Based Metabolic Reconstruction Unravels the Key Role of B12 in Methionine Auxotrophy of an Ortho-Phenylphenol-Degrading Sphingomonas haloaromaticamans
(2020)Auxotrophy to amino acids and vitamins is a common feature in the bacterial world shaping microbial communities through cross-feeding relations. The amino acid auxotrophy of pollutant-degrading bacteria could hamper their ... -
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 ... -
Growth hormone response to submaximal doses of ghrelin remains unchanged during the follicular phase of the cycle
(2013)Background: Previous data have shown that ghrelin-induced growth hormone (GH) secretion is augmented in women by exogenous but not by endogenous estrogens. The purpose of this study was to examine the response of GH to ... -
Histological and biochemical evidence related to the collagen quality in torn rotator cuff tendons
(2016)This study investigates the histological background of torn rotator cuff tendons, evaluates the stability of newly synthesized collagen by measuring the hydroxyproline content and attempts to correlate these fndings with ... -
Hypoxia upregulates integrin gene expression in microvascular endothelial cells and promotes their migration and capillary-like tube formation
