  Acknowledgments Introduction Understanding the characteristics of the Amazonian Dark soils “Terras Pretas de Índio” (TPIs) is of ecological importance, because the TPI soils represent a residue-based model for tropical sustainable agriculture (Sombroek et al., 2003, Neves et al., 2003, Cohen-O

  2020-02-22

  

  The P4H activity and the large number of 4-Hyp residues that are formed, amounting to half of all the Pro residues or 10% of all residues, have been identified as having a clear role in the structure and chemistry of the triple helix [3]. The role of the rare 3-Hyp residues is less clear and is stil

  2020-02-22

  

  Estrogen receptors (ERs) belong to the third class of nuclear receptors (NR3) [23]. Two different forms of ER have been described, ERα and ERβ. They are coded by two distinct genes (ESR1 and ESR2, respectively) containing 8 transcribed exons that give rise to six conserved protein domains: domains A

  2020-02-22

  

  Prostaglandin E receptor subtype 4 (EP4) is a transmembrane G-coupled protein receptor activated by prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). EP4 activation exerts anti-inflammatory effects in adipose tissue by dampening the levels of inflammatory chemokines [12]. In the mouse, EP4 deficiency aggravates fragmentatio

  2020-02-22

  

  Although information regarding the influence of PGE2 on cardiac fibroblast cell growth is sparse, the effect of PGE2 on other cell types has been studied extensively, particularly in cancer and cancer cell lines where COX-2 is over-expressed. Constitutive high levels of COX-2 expression have been no

  2020-02-22

  

  Pyruvate dehydrogenase multienzyme complex (PDHc) catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate, and subsequently acetylates coenzyme A (CoA) to acetyl-CoA during the tricarboxylic Mevastatin metabolic pathway using thiamine diphosphate (ThDP) and Mg2+ as cofactors. PDHc poses a key role in c

  2020-02-22

  

  The knockout mice models of the DNMTs gene shed light on understanding the molecular background of male infertility development. Dnmt1−/− causes demethylation of the genome (Lei et al, 1996, Li et al, 1992) (). The Dnmt3a conditional knockout mouse models exhibit spermatogenic arrest at the spermato

  In addition to the blockade of airway smooth muscle contractions, CysLT1 receptor antagonists also exerted a potent anti-inflammatory effect at this level. The oral administration of MEN91507, Pranlukast, Montelukast, and Zafirlukast also produced a long-lasting inhibition of leukotriene D4-induced

  The mechanisms in the central nervous system (CNS) controlling the sympathetic tone of the Saikosaponin A are associated to behavioral strategies, such as those involved in response to stress. In this regard, morphine withdrawal induces profound and severe stress reactions evidenced by enhancement o

  2020-02-22

  

  Many studies have used paradigms based on animal models to understand human emotional behavior because it appears to be correlated with fear- and anxiety-related defensive patterns in non-human mammals (Blanchard et al., 2001). In this case, defensive reactions are used to study the neural substrate

  One strategy which is different from the above is to isolate a similar enzyme to the one under study which will not be recognized by the antibody of the original protein. This approach will lead to prolonging an enzyme’s activity. For example, a novel variant of Carboxypeptidase G2 (CPG2), which has

  Introduction Hepatocarcinoma is a common and aggressive form of cancer (Trad et al., 2017). Due to a high rate of postoperative recurrence and metastasis, the prognosis for HCC remains dismal (Wang et al., 2017a, 2017b). Subclinical metastasis is the major cause responsible for tumor recurrence and

  The inhibition of CYP11β activity by NOR was 11- and 2.5-fold higher than those reported for the antifungal agents ketoconazole (IC50: 4.4μM) and clotrimozole (IC50: 1.0μM) (Fernandes and Porte, 2013). Furthermore, NOR was able to inhibit P450 aromatase activity in carp ovaries, although at a rather
