Epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) reduce infarction of the myocardium after ischemia-reperfusion injury to rodent and dog hearts mainly by opening sarcolemmal mitochondrial potassium channels. Other mediators for action EET have been proposed, although no definitive pathway or mechanism has yet reported. Using cultured cells from two species, immortalized myocytes a mouse atrial lineage (HL-1) primary derived neonatal rat hearts, we observed that pretreatment with EETs (1 μM 14,15-, 11,12-,...

Previous studies have demonstrated that chronic brain hypoperfusion (CBH) causes Aβ aggregation by upregulating expression of amyloid precursor protein (APP) and β-site APP cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1) protein, which is accompanied cognitive impairment, but the mechanisms are not fully understood. In this study, we evaluated effect microRNA on memory impairment in rats induced CBH. We show here CBH generated bilateral common carotid artery occlusion (2VO) significantly decreased learning...

ABSTRACT P73 antisense RNA 1T (non‐protein coding), also known as TP73‐AS1 or PDAM, is a long non‐coding which may regulate apoptosis via regulation of p53‐dependent anti‐apoptotic genes. An abnormal change expression was noticed in cancers. The effects brain glioma growth and the underlying mechanism remain unclear so far. In present study, specifically upregulated tissues cell lines, associated with poorer prognosis patients glioma. knocking down suppressed human proliferation invasion...

Abstract Failure of modularity remains a significant challenge for assembling synthetic gene circuits with tested modules as they often do not function expected. Competition over shared limited expression resources is crucial underlying reason. It was reported that resource competition makes two seemingly separate genes connect in graded linear manner. Here we unveil nonlinear within circuits. We first build cascading bistable switches (Syn-CBS) circuit single strain coupled self-activation...

Soil salinization is a significant threat to agricultural production, making accurate salinity prediction essential. This study addresses key challenges in the Yellow River Delta (YRD) soil inversion, including (1) determining which Landsat 8 OLI level performs better, (2) identifying most suitable month for and (3) improving model performance important variables modeling. Thus images (Level-1 Level-2) 12 months were collected, then having less than 10% cloud cover selected processed extract...

TNF-α activates ASK1 in part by dissociating 14-3-3 from apoptosis signal–regulating kinase 1 (ASK1). In the present study, we identified a novel Ras GTPase-activating protein (Ras-GAP) as an ASK1-interacting (AIP1). AIP1 binds to C-terminal domain of via lysine-rich cluster within N-terminal C2 domain. exists closed form through intramolecular interaction between N-terminus and C-terminus, induces unfolding leading association with ASK1. Thus, containing GAP domains constitutively...

Previously we have shown that ASK-interacting protein 1 (AIP1, also known as DAB2IP), a novel member of the Ras-GAP family, mediates TNF-induced activation ASK1-JNK signaling pathway. However, mechanism by which TNF is coupled to AIP1 not known. Here show localized on plasma membrane in resting endothelial cells (EC) complex with TNFR1. binding induces release from TNFR1, resulting cytoplasmic translocation and concomitant formation an intracellular comprised TRADD, RIP1, TRAF2, AIPl.

Activation of cellular Ca2+ signaling molecules appears to be a fundamental step in the progression cardiomyopathy and arrhythmias. Myocardial overexpression constitutively active Ca2+-dependent phosphatase calcineurin (CAN) causes severe marked by left ventricular (LV) dysfunction, arrhythmias, increased mortality rate, but CAN antagonist drugs primarily reduce hypertrophy without improving LV function or risk death.We found that activity expression second Ca2+-activated molecule,...

Myocardial Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) inhibition improves cardiac function following myocardial infarction (MI), but the CaMKII-dependent pathways that participate in stress responses are incompletely understood. To address this issue, we sought to determine transcriptional consequences of CaMKII after MI. We performed gene expression profiling mouse hearts with cardiomyocyte-delimited transgenic either a inhibitory peptide (AC3-I) or scrambled control (AC3-C) Of...

The type II p21-activated kinases (PAKs) are key effectors of RHO-family GTPases involved in cell motility, survival, and proliferation. Using a structure-guided approach, we discovered that PAKs regulated by an N-terminal autoinhibitory pseudosubstrate motif centered on critical proline residue, this regulation occurs independently activation loop phosphorylation. We determined six X-ray crystal structures either full-length PAK4 or its catalytic domain, demonstrate the molecular basis for...
