  Increasing evidence suggests that normal vaginal delivery is a natural inflammatory process which results in increased levels of cytokines like Interleukin-6 (IL-6), Interleukin-8 (IL-8) in maternal and cord blood plasma [10]. Increased levels IL-6 and IL-8 have been reported in the amniotic fluid o

  2021-08-20

  

  Previous studies found that depression primarily results from impaired monoaminergic neurotransmission systems [1], [2]. The glutamatergic and GABAergic systems as well as several neuropeptide systems have also been the focus of pathophysiological studies on depression [1], [2]. Inflammatory cytokin

  More recently, it was discovered that BChE hydrolyzes the neuropeptide gut hormone, ghrelin [25], [26], [27], [28]. Nonetheless, because the enzyme reaction is very slow, those who first reported this finding were initially reluctant to attribute a real physiological role for that phenomenon. Our ow

  Acknowledgments Introduction Cell cycle arrest or delay may occur at 3 major checkpoints, i.e. G1/S, intra-S and G2/M. p53 has a central role in controlling the G1/S checkpoint, and its loss or deactivation, occurring in the majority of cancers, forces cancer cells to rely on the S and G2/M ch

  Our earlier experimental studies showed "neutral", i.e. non-proliferative, effects of progesterone but a large increase in proliferation using certain progestins; however, this was only in the presence of PGRMC1 [[13], [14], [15], [16], [17], [18], [19]]. The next step was to investigate whether thi

  Estrogens: Definition and history The term “estrogens” refers to a group of female hormones, including estrone, estradiol, estriol, and estretrol (Fig. 1). Chemically, estrogens belong to the family of organic compounds known as steroids. As such, their core structure is composed of 17 carbon-carbo

  Fisetin (3,3′,4′,7-tetrahydroxyflavone) is a flavonol present in several fruits and vegetables such as grape, persimmon, strawberry, apple, and onion at concentrations rangeing from 2 to 160 μg/g. Fisetin is a well–known bioflavonoid with remarkable biological effects including chemopreventive/chemo

  2021-08-20

  

  MSCs are self-renewing, multipotent progenitor cells, with multilineage potential to differentiate into adipocytes, osteocytes, and chondrocytes. In addition, MSCs can migrate to sites of inflammation, supporting hematopoiesis and homeostatic maintenance. Given their unique therapeutic properties, M

  Both progesterone and the calcium ionophore A23187 rely on the synthesis of cAMP by sAC to elicit exocytosis in human sperm (Fig. 2E-H and [8], [60]). We had reported earlier that digestion of endogenous cAMP with recombinant cAMP-specific phosphodiesterase 4D [9] or inhibition of its synthesis with

  Sphingosine kinase One of the enzymes closely related to DGKs are the sphingosine kinases (SKs). These enzymes catalyze the conversion of sphingosine (Sph) to sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P). SKs and DGKs are closely related lipid kinase in term of basic enzymology and the mechanism of regulation a

  In astrocytes, mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) are activated after OGD-induced ischemic injury (Yung and Tolkovsky, 2003, Niu et al., 2009) and they regulate induction of AQP expression (Arima et al., 2003, McCoy and Sontheimer, 2010). It is well known that MAPKs, including extracellular s

  Unlike the CRF1 receptor, the CRF2(a) receptor binds and is activated by agonists with a broad range of potencies. Therefore, we assessed the ability of strong and weak ligands to desensitize retinoblastoma CRF2(a) receptors. Although stresscopin's N-terminus is two Concanamycin A longer than the N
