A novel truncated form of eNOS associates with altered vascular function.
AIMS Nitric oxide (NO) plays a key role in vascular homeostasis and is produced by endothelial NO synthase (eNOS), encoded by NOS3 gene. We previously reported the genetic association between NOS3 rs753482-A>C polymorphism on intron 19 and coronary artery disease (CAD). In the attempt of conferring functional implication to the rs753482-A>C polymorphism, we investigated its influence on transcr...
متن کاملHeterologous expression of a truncated form of human recombinant vascular endothelial growth factor-A and its biological activity in wound healing
Objective(s): Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is one of the most effective proteins in angiogenesis, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) differentiation and wound healing. These abilities are therapeutic potential of VEGF in diabetic retinopathy, nephropathy and other tissue damage circumstances. In this study, recombinant VEGF was produced in Escherichia coli (E. coli) system and then biol...
متن کاملA Note on the Smooth Estimator of the Quantile Function with Left-Truncated Data
This note focuses on estimating the quantile function based on the kernel smooth estimator under a truncated dependent model. The Bahadurtype representation of the kernel smooth estimator is established, and from the Bahadur representation it can be seen that this estimator is strongly consistent.
متن کاملTRPC1 associates with BK(Ca) channel to form a signal complex in vascular smooth muscle cells.
TRPC1 (transient receptor potential canonical 1) is a Ca(2+)-permeable cation channel involved in diverse physiological function. TRPC1 may associate with other proteins to form a signaling complex, which is crucial for channel function. In the present study, we investigated the interaction between TRPC1 and large conductance Ca(2+)-sensitive K(+) channel (BK(Ca)). With the use of potentiometri...
متن کاملBioinformatics analysis and expression of a truncated form of Proteus mirabilis Pta protein as a novel vaccine target against urinary tract infection
Introduction: Pathogenic strains of Proteus mirabilis have important roles in urinary tract infection. Proteus toxic agglutinin (Pta) is amongst the most important virulence factors of P. mirabilis. This protein has a conserved sequence present in all the strains which could be evaluated as a novel vaccine target against them. The aims of the current study were the expression, purification and ...
