This study aimed to identify novel tyrosinase inhibitory peptides from collagen of donkey by combining in silico screening with vitro activity verification, and elucidate inhibition mechanism based on molecular docking dynamics simulation. Three tripeptides, that is, Asp-Gly-Leu (DGL), Gly-Ala-Arg (GAR), Ser-Asp-Trp (SDW) were identified exerted potent activities, IC50 values 0.47 ± 0.01 mM, 1.13 0.04 2.08 respectively. Each three had hydrophobic amino acids could stably closely bind the...

In insects, tyrosinase plays important roles in normal developmental processes, such as cuticular tanning, scleration, wound healing, production of opsonins, encapsulation and nodule formation for defense against foreign pathogens. Thus, may be regarded a potential candidate novel bioinsecticide development. A family alkyl 3,4-dihydroxybenzoates (C6–C9), new tyrosinsase inhibitors, were synthesized. Their inhibitory effects on the activity have been investigated. The results showed all them...

Silibinin has been shown to attenuate cognitive dysfunction and inhibit amyloid-beta (Aβ) aggregation in Alzheimer's disease (AD) models. However, the underlying mechanism by which silibinin improves cognition remains poorly understood. In this study, we investigated effect of on β-secretase levels, Aβ enzymatic degradation, oxidative stress brains APP/PS1 mice with impairments. Oral administration for 2 months significantly attenuated deficits Y-maze test, novel object recognition Morris...

Micro/nanotopographies (MNTs) have been reported to enhance the osseointegration of biomaterials and modulate cell functions, but underlying mechanisms are incompletely understood. We hypothesized that transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) may mediate topographically induced osteoblastic differentiation bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs) by regulating NFATc1 Wnt/β-catenin signaling. To test this hypothesis, murine BMSCs were cultured on polished titanium (Ti) discs (PT) Ti carrying...

The human liver chimeric mouse with primary hepatocytes (PHHs) engraftment has been demonstrated to be a useful animal model study hepatitis B virus (HBV) pathogenesis and evaluate anti-HBV drugs. However, the disadvantages of using PHHs include inability for cellular expansion in vitro, limited donor availability, individual differences, ethical issues, necessitating development alternatives. To obtain vitro expandable hepatocytes, we optimized hepatic differentiation procedure progenitor...

Cytoskeletal microtubules (MTs) are nucleated from γ-tubulin ring complexes (γTuRCs) located at MT organizing centers (MTOCs), such as the centrosome. However, exact regulatory mechanism of γTuRC assembly is not fully understood. Here, we showed that nonreceptor tyrosine kinase c-Abl was associated with and phosphorylated γ-tubulin, essential component γTuRC, mainly on Y443 residue by in vivo (immunofluorescence immunoprecipitation) or vitro (surface plasmon resonance) detection. We further...
