  2024-03-29

  

  Aromatase: the key enzyme for estrogen formation in adipose tissue Estrogens are synthesized from androgens by aromatase, a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily, which is the rate-limiting enzyme in estrogen biosynthesis (Santen et al, 2009, Simpson et al, 1994). At the cellular level, aroma

  2024-03-29

  

  Discussion Arginase 1 and Arginase 2 are homologous enzymes that consume l-arginine to produce l-ornithine and urea [14], [15]. These enzymes compete with NO synthases for the same substrate [14], [15], [30], and therefore may reduce NO production [21], [24], [30]. The colocalization of arginases

  2024-03-29

  

  Testosterone can be converted into estrogens by aromatase action. Aromatase is encoded by CYP19, belongs to cytochrome P450 superfamily, and synthesizes estradiol (E2) and estrone (E1) from testosterone and androstenedione respectively (Fig. 1). Aromatase is expressed in the ORS of anagen hair folli

  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)

  Our previous study revealed expression of AhR in human parotid gland in cytoplasm of striated duct Rifaximin (Drozdzik, Kowalczyk, Urasińska, & Kurzawski, 2013). In a further study we observed regulation of AhR expression and function by its specific inducer, i.e. 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin

  2024-03-29

  

  AHR-mediated MMP1 upregulation has been shown in response to tobacco smoke [32]. Tobacco smoke contains various AHR ligands such as benzo[a]pyrene. Both benzo[a]pyrene [15] and FICZ [13] are high-affinity ligands for AHR and upregulate CYP1A1 and CYP1B1. FICZ is rapidly degraded by CYP1A1 [20], [33]

  If overexpression of ADK is sufficient to induce spontaneous seizures, then reduction of ADK in engineered mice should prevent epileptogenesis. The generation of mice with moderately reduced levels of ADK in brain rather than complete ADK deficiency seems to be essential, since several lines of evid

  Anti-LT therapy by 5-LO inhibition has been hampered by occurring liver toxicities by Zileuton or the clinical phase II compound Atreleuton [36], [37] However both compounds possess a thiophene as well as an N-hydroxyurea moiety. These features could be linked with reactive thiophene intermediates [

  Conclusions Acknowledgments Introduction To die or not to die – that is the question. Christian de Duve created the word “autophagy” in 1960’s for the first time (Klionsky et al., 2016). The word “autophagy” was derived from the Greek roots “auto” (self) and “phagy” (eating) and referred to

  Introduction Lipoxygenases (LOXs) are key enzymes that catalyze the polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) such as arachidic ku catalog mg (AA), linoleic acid (LA) and others unsaturated fatty acids (Brash, 1999). LOXs are expressed in immune, neural, epithelial, tumor cells and other cells (Claesson
