Serine-arginine protein kinases: a small protein kinase family with a large cellular presence
(2011)
Serine-arginine protein kinases (SPRKs) constitute a relatively novel subfamily of serine-threonine kinases that specifically phosphorylate serine residues residing in serine-arginine/arginine-serine dipeptide motifs. ...
Synthesis and biological evaluation of potential small molecule inhibitors of tumor necrosis factor
(2015)
Inhibition of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) production or function by small molecules has become a major focus in the pharmaceutical industry for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. In this study, a series of 39 novel ...
The mitogenic effect of testosterone and 17 beta-estradiol on airway smooth muscle cells
(2011)
Airway disease distribution and/or severity exhibit sex differences suggesting that sex hormones are involved in the respiratory system physiology and pathophysiology. The implication of airway smooth muscle cells (ASMCs) ...
Studies on the Essential Intramolecular Interaction Between the A1 and A2 Domains of von Willebrand Factor
(2013)
Haemostasis depends on the balanced participation of von Willebrand factor (vWF), a large multimeric and multidomain glycoprotein with essential role during the initial steps of blood clotting. Mature vWF circulates in ...
Conjugation with polyamines enhances the antibacterial and anticancer activity of chloramphenicol
(2014)
Chloramphenicol (CAM) is a broad-spectrum antibiotic, limited to occasional only use in developed countries because of its potential toxicity. To explore the influence of polyamines on the uptake and activity of CAM into ...
Glucocorticoids induce mitochondrial gene transcription in HepG2 cells Role of the mitochondrial glucocorticoid receptor
(2011)
Glucocorticoids are major regulators of a plethora of cellular functions, acting on target cells through glucocorticoid receptors (GR) and modulation of gene transcription, among other mechanisms. One main site of action ...
Duplex Real-time PCR assay and SYBR green I melting curve analysis for molecular identification of HPV genotypes 16, 18, 31, 35, 51 and 66
(2015)
Long-term infection with high-risk HPV genotypes is the leading cause of cervical cancer. In the present study a Duplex Real-time PCR assay was developed in order to identify HPV types 16, 18, 31, 35, 51 and 66 in three ...
DIANA-TarBase v7.0: indexing more than half a million experimentally supported miRNA:mRNA interactions
(2015)
microRNAs (miRNAs) are short non-coding RNA species, which act as potent gene expression regulators. Accurate identification of miRNA targets is crucial to understanding their function. Currently, hundreds of thousands of ...
