  Acknowledgment This work was supported by the Estonian Science Foundation (Grant ETF8862). Introduction In higher eukaryotes ionizing-radiation (IR) induced DNA double-strand breaks (DSB) are primarily repaired by the non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) pathway [1]. Ku, a heterodimeric protein

  Introduction The development of non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) is a complex process characterized by the acquisition of altered proliferation and invasiveness. These changes are classically defined as occurring in stages, i.e., initiation, promotion, and progression. In the two-stage model of in

  Another pathway that requires proper DUB recruitment is the DNA damage response (DDR). After ultraviolet (UV)-induced DNA damage, monoubiquitylated proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) mediates signaling that leads to repair. The DUB complex USP1/USP1-associated factor 1 (UAF1) deubiquitylates

  One of the features of ROCO proteins, controlled by their domain architecture is their oligomerization status. By size-exclusion chromatography and Western blot analysis, DAPK1 was proved to form homodimers via its GTPase and kinase domains [53]. Similarly, Dehydroepiandrosterone microscopy studies

  Cytokines and NK cells Combined effects of cytokines and other stimuli on NK cell function Cytokine-stimulated NK perk inhibitor have enhanced capacity to kill tumor cells. However, usually, individual cytokines do not seem to be sufficient for full activation, proliferation, survival and eff

  2019-11-16

  

  The identification of a functional leucine-rich NES mediating 8E7 nuclear export led us to analyze the interaction between 8E7 and CRM1 nuclear export receptor. HeLa cell lysates containing EGFP-8E7, EGFP–8cE7, EGFP-16E7–NES (as a positive control), or EGFP (as a negative control) were incubated wit

  The aim of the present study was to investigate the participation of CRF1 and CRF2 in the alterations of the dorsal and ventral striatal dopamine release and the vertical and horizontal locomotor activity observed in rats following chronic nicotine treatment and consequent acute withdrawal. In this

  We found that E2 and GEN each has mostly similar effects on recruitment of the epigenetic modulators to the MB-COMT distal promoter (summarized in Table 2). These effects are associated with increased promoter methylation and gene suppression of COMT. It is noted that the array of epigenetic modulat

  T helper (Th) SIN-1 chloride receptor play a central role in activation of immune system against infectious agents through secretion of lymphokines or cytokines. African trypanosomes target the Th cells and alter their activation, possibly for their own survival and perpetuity (Namangala, 2011). Try

  Results and Discussion Conclusions Based on their common NTP pyrophosphatase activity, similar size of the catalytic domains, and the conservation of glutamate residues, it was assumed previously that the MazG and HisE families were related to MutT and other Nudix family hydrolases (see Zhang

  Of note, CS-associated lung injury is closely linked with augmented influx of macrophages that subsequently intensify the lung injury [34,47] while macrophage depletion alleviates CS-induced pulmonary inflammation via reducing cytokines and chemokine production in BALF [48]. Similar effect has been

  Aldehyde dehydrogenase has been characterized as a cancer stem cell marker, which plays a key role in various biological processes in tumor, including cell proliferation, invasiveness and chemoresistance. Recent data of Abourbih et al reported that ALDH1 expression did not correlate with primary tum

  Cell migration and invasion are central processes in the development and metastasis of cancer. The regulation of cell migration by DDR1 has been reported in many types of cancer cell lines; however, conflicting results have been reported regarding the inhibitory as well as promotive effects of DDR1

  2019-11-15

  

  The COMT gene maps to chromosome 22q11.2 (Grossman et al., 1992) and has two protein isoforms. The differences between S-COMT and longer MB-COMT are in the N-termini, which use alternative translation initiation sites and promoters. These two isoforms display different affinity and capacity for COMT
