In humans, the major LOs are subdivided by their positional specificity into 5-(ALOX5), 12-(ALOX12) and 15-LO (ALOX15) (Kuhn et al., 2015). 5-LO is the key enzyme for LT biosynthesis and mainly found in mature cells from myeloid origin, including neutrophil, eosinophil and basophil granulocytes, mon

In this scenario, the receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI), sunitinib, an anti-angiogenic agent, was tested in phase III trial, leading to a longer progressing free survival when compared to interferon (median: 11 vs. 5mo, respectively, hazard ratio (HR) = 0.42; 95% CI: 0.32–0.54; Pits sch23390

Roles of Aurora kinases in directly activating multiple oncogenic pathways and promoting proliferation as well as transformation have also been demonstrated. Aurora-A has been shown to up-regulate telomerase reverse transcriptase mRNA through c-myc [26]. The kinase was also implicated in activating

2024-04-16
The role of 12/15-LOX plays in autophagy Autophagy is a process by which cellular material is delivered to lysosomal to degrade the damaged organelles and proteins to facilitate nutrient recycling (Towers and Thorburn, 2016). There has been characterized three types of autophagy-macroautophagy, m

ATM-dependent initiation of radiation-induced G2/M checkpoint arrest is well established [11], [34], [35]. However, the ATR pathway may also be involved [36], [37]. Brown and Baltimore generated Cre/lox-conditional cell lines or wnt inhibitor with a kinase inactive allele of ATR (ATRkd) to evaluate

We further evaluated the possibility whether letrozole mediates its effect through diverting the pathway towards 5α-DHT and further to 3α-Diol. For this purpose, we measured the concentrations of 5α-DHT and 3α-Diol in mice hippocampus and found that letrozole elevated both 5α-DHT and 3α-Diol levels

The contractility index showed positive inotropic effects of apelin in both doses at min 5 (Fig. 3, Fig. 5). Although the mean arterial pressure did not recover to the baseline, the contractility index increased, the relaxation index (tau) and ±dp/dt max returned back to their baseline, and left ven

AP-1 activity is increased by MAP kinase stimulation in different cell types (Whitmarsh and Davis, 1996), while MKP-1, the enzyme that catalyzes the dephosphorylation and inactivation of MAP kinases in the nucleus, inhibits AP-1 (Rössler et al., 2008, Rössler and Thiel, 2009, Mayer et al., 2011, Thi

The activity of MMPs is regulated at the level of gene transcription or by the enzymatic activation of latent enzymes. Inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin (IL)-1β, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and IL-6 are elevated in synovial fluid, synovium and cartilage in patients with OA, and these cyto

Therefore, we have further investigated the anti-oxidant activity of isogarcinol in vitro by measuring the scavenging of 2,2′-diphenyl-1-1picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2′-azino-bia (3-ethylben-zothiazoline-6-sulphonicacid) (ABTS), and determining its reducing power and ability to prevent lipid peroxid

We have recently begun to demonstrate this concept by reporting a novel class of β-hairpin peptidomimetics, built on a piperidine-pyrrolidine semi-rigid β-turn inducer [12] and bearing two recognition pentapeptide sequences, designed on oligomeric and fibril structures of Aβ1-42 (compound 1, Fig. 1)

To date, 12-LOX is the only LOX isoform that has been identified in the platelet [17]. Interestingly, while 12-LOX is highly expressed (∼14000 molecules/platelet) in the platelet, 12(R)-LOX expression is absent in the hematopoietic lineage and has therefore not been reported to be expressed in plate

Hypoadiponectinemia in metabolic syndrome APN belongs structurally to the complement 1q family and is found at high concentrations (>0.01% of total protein) in the serum of healthy individuals [6]. Given the abundance of APN in plasma, it is assumed that alterations in plasma levels of APN might
