  Introduction Prolyl hydroxylation is a widely observed post translational modification in collagen, an abundant animal protein. The high content (~13% per chain of the triple helical structure) of 4-hydroxyproline (Hyp,O) in collagen, togather with the natural abundance of collagen has led to the e

  EphB4 appears to be a low-affinity receptor for rhEpo based on the biochemical data. The concentration of rhEpo used for the biological experiments (50 IU/ml) corresponds to 10–15 nM, which is 1% to 2% of the KD value (KD = 881 nM) for the binding of rhEpo to EphB4, as measured in the MST assay.

  Among prostaglandins (PG), PGD2 remained the most elusive species for a long time and was initially regarded as having negligible biological activity [1]. In 1974 its inhibitory effect on platelet aggregation was discovered by Smith et al. [2] and Mills & McFarlain [3], and both pressor and depresso

  Estrogen receptor-related receptor γ (ERRγ), like other members of the ERR subfamily, is a constitutively active orphan nuclear receptor, though unlike ERRα and β, it is more selectively expressed in metabolically active and highly vascularized tissues such as heart, kidney, brain, and skeletal musc

  The presence of a “vicious cycle” established between tumor proliferation and paratumor osteolysis plays a crucial role in the development of primary bone tumors [53]. Cancer cells produce soluble factors that activate directly or indirectly via osteoblasts, osteoclast differentiation and maturation

  Introduction Breast cancer is the most common malignant tumor in women and the second leading cause of female death [1]. In recent years, with the improvement of early detection and the emergence of new treatment methods, the mortality rate of breast cancer has been greatly reduced. However, the

  [125I] α-bungarotoxin competes with ACh, an endogenous activator of α7-nACh receptors by binding to the ACh binding site on the receptor (Albuquerque et al., 2009). For this reason, the effect of curcumin was investigated on the specific binding of [125I] α-bungarotoxin. Saturation curves for the bi

  We postulate that OT contained in milk during early postnatal development causes a mild enteroprotective preconditioning of the ER (Fig 9). This is perhaps akin to a mechanism shown by others [50], [51], [52], which is characterized by selective activation of the IRE1a/XBP1/eIF2a (via PKR) UPR pathw

  In addition to playing important roles in the immune system, EBI2 is also expressed in the PF-3845 of the central nervous system (CNS), namely astrocytes, and this receptor regulates astrocyte signalling, as well as astrocyte cell migration (Rutkowska et al., 2015, Rutkowska et al., 2016a).
