Dysfunctions of ubiquitin-proteasome system and toxicity of dopamine have been known as the key mechanisms in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD) and proteasome inhibitors are widely used in experimental models of PD to reproduce cell death of dopaminergic neurons. In the present study, immortalized human neural stem cells (HB1.F3, F3) and those transfected with human aromatic acid dec...

The second generation of Bcr-Abl inhibitors nilotinib, dasatinib, and bosutinib developed to override imatinib resistance are not active against the T315I "gatekeeper" mutation. Here we describe a type-II T315I inhibitor 2 (GNF-7), based upon a 3,4-dihydropyrimido[4,5-d]pyrimidin-2(1H)-one scaffold which is capable of potently inhibiting wild-type and T315I Bcr-Abl as well as other clinically r...

Haveria spp. accumulate flavonol sulfate esters whose biosynthesis i s catalyzed by a number of position-specific flavonol sulfotransferases. Although the accumulation of sulfated flavonols appears to be tissue specific and developmentally regulated and to vary among related species, little i s known about the mechanism of regulation controlling the synthesis of these metabolites. In the presen...

In the present study, three sets of F4 progeny lines developed through different cycles pollen selection for heat tolerance were studied genetic differences using 16 SSR markers during 2017–20 at Department Plant Biotechnology, University Agricultural Sciences, Gandhi Krishi Vignana Kendra, Bengaluru, Karnataka. Three groups progenies used study are GGG (pollen in F1, F2 and F3 generation); GCG...

Tachyzoite forms of Toxoplasma gondii were subjected to a sequential organic solvent extraction, which allows fractionation of membrane components according to their degrees of hydrophobicity, yielding three fractions named F1 (most hydrophobic) to F3 (least hydrophobic). Fractions F2 (80.85% specificity and 86.95% sensitivity) and F3 (89.36% specificity and 93.61% sensitivity) gave the best re...

A 35 KDa protein referred to as F3 was purified from the seeds of Borreria hispida by precipitation with 80% ammonium sulphate and gel filtration on Sephadex G-100 column. RP-HPLC analysis of protein fraction (F3) on an analytical C-18 column produced a single peak, detected at 220 nm. F3 showed an apparent molecular weight of 35 KDa by SDS PAGE and MALDI-TOF-MS analyses. Peptide mass fingerpri...

Using modular quotients of linear groups deened over the Eisenstein ring Z!], we construct innnite families of nite regular or chiral polytopes of types f3; 3; 6g, f3; 6; 3g and f6; 3; 6g.

Neural stem cells and progenitor cells migrate selectively to tumor loci in vivo. We exploited the tumor-tropic properties of HB1.F3.C1 cells, an immortalized cell line derived from human fetal telencephalon, to deliver the cDNA encoding a secreted form of rabbit carboxylesterase (rCE) to disseminated neuroblastoma tumors in mice. This enzyme activates the prodrug CPT-11 more efficiently than d...

A number of different researchers have reported a substantial degree of variability in how American English /./ coarticulates with neighboring segments. Acoustic and articulatory data were used to investigate this variability for speakers of ‘‘rhotic’’ American English dialects. Three issues were addressed: ~1! the degree to which the F3 trajectory is affected by segmental context and stress, ~...
