Cooking methods affect the compositions of Lentinus edodes metabolites. Nevertheless, little information is available on specific impact different cooking via metabolomic analysis. This study determined influence boiling, steaming, air-frying, and roasting profiles based UHPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap MS/MS in combination with chemometrics. A total 990 metabolites were detected classified into 11 su...

• IF 1 regulates MCU-dependent mitochondrial Ca 2+ uptake. loss induces MCU upregulation through activation of the AMPK/CREB pathway. OMA1 depletion restores physiological levels and entry.

BACKGROUND In heart failure, brain-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) is elevated and the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA) downregulated. We previously showed that preload-induced SERCA-upregulation is suppressed by exogenous BNP. METHODS AND RESULTS Here we tested the hypothesis that afterload and neurohumoral activation would counterregulate preload-dependent SERCA upregulation thro...

High affinity nicotine-binding sites in the mammalian brain are neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) assembled from at least alpha4 and beta2 subunits into pentameric ion channels. When exposed to ligands such as nicotine, these receptors respond by undergoing upregulation, a correlate of nicotine addiction. Upregulation can be measured using HEK293 (293) cells that stably express...

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is among deadliest cancers all over the world. Regarding its high mortality, some researches have focused to discover new applicable diagnosis methods. In this regard, circulatory miRNAs has been received huge consideration as promising biomarkers for early detection of CRC. The study aimed to evaluate the expression level of miRNA-7, miRNA-93, and miRNA-409 in plasma of...

Modulating target proteins via the ubiquitin-proteasome system has recently expanded scope of pharmacological inventions. Stimulator interferon genes (STING) is an auspicious for immunotherapy. Seminal studies envisioned importance STING as well utility its agonists in immunotherapy outcomes. Herein, we suggest UPPRIS (upregulation by protein-protein interaction strategy) to pharmacologically i...

The type strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, PAO1, showed great upregulation of many nitrosative defense genes upon treatment with S-nitrosoglutathione, while the mucoid strain PAO578II showed no further upregulation above its constitutive upregulation of nor and fhp. NO* consumption however, showed that both strains mount functional, protein synthesis-dependent NO*-consumptive responses.

Synaptic ultrastructural changes after long-lasting long-term potentiation (L-LTP) induced by 2 and 100 Hz tetanus were investigated by electron microscopic and stereological approach in slices of the developing rat visual cortex (postnatal days 15~21). Both 2 and 100 Hz tetanus-induced L-LTP groups showed significant increases in synaptic interface curvature, synaptic numeric density and posts...
