  Anaesthetized mice of one eNOS-KO strain showed a paradoxical decrease in blood pressure (BP) in response to i.p. administration of the NOS-inhibitor L-NA suggesting a role for non-endothelial isoforms of NOS in maintaining BP [1]. Alternatively, diminution in the activity of the renin-angiotensin s

  Oxidoreductase-like MEM for prodrug activation Future outlook Although MEM-mediated prodrug activation has been performed by different MEMs and prodrugs, and their effectiveness have been proved in vivo, only a few types of MEMs or prodrugs have been explored in prodrug activation until now [2

  Conflict of interest Introduction Endothelin receptors are members of the superfamily of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and central regulators of vascular tension and other physiological functions in higher eukaryotes [1]. The human endothelin system comprises the highly homologous endoth

  While oxysterols were most extensively studied for its potent ability to mediate feedback regulation of cholesterol biosynthesis, some early investigations showed that the enzymes involved in its syntheses were highly upregulated in macrophages and dendritic cells—an indication of possible roles in

  RING-type E3s and their substrates There is enormous diversity in substrate ubiquitination and its regulation, as the targets of RING-type E3s are incredibly varied. RING-type E3s are implicated as tumor suppressors, oncogenes, and mediators of endocytosis, and play critical roles in complex mult

  2021-05-17

  

  Introduction O6-Methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) is a DNA-repair enzyme that specifically transfers alkyl adducts from the O6 position of guanine to the cysteine residue (Cys145) in its active site. In cancer cells, this ability of MGMT disrupts the cytotoxic actions of alkylating antic

  Over the past decade, targeting DNA repair proteins has emerged as an effective tool to enhance chemosensitivity of malignant cells [9]. However, identification and selection of the proper target of DNA repair pathways is critical to increase cytotoxic activity of chemotherapeutic agents in cancer c

  The central role of DNA-PK in the NHEJ NHEJ can be divided in several steps (Fig. 1A): 1) recognition and binding of Ku at each ends of the DSB following by the assembly of the DNA-PK at the break points and bridging; 2) phosphorylation of the DNA ends by DNA-PKcs; 3) ligation of the ends by DNA

  Importantly, in genetic studies, Saccharomyces cerevisiae Pif1, a member of the SF1 family of helicases, has been implicated in BIR in conjunction with Pol δ (Chung et al., 2010, Saini et al., 2013, Wilson et al., 2013).

  Moreover, a ligand for fusin has recently been found: the lymphocyte chemoattractant stromal-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) binds to CHO Paxilline transfected with fusin and promotes secondary messenger production (Bleul et al., 1996; Oberlin et al., 1996). A new name, CXCR-4, has been proposed for the re
