  Pathological angiogenesis occurs when an imbalance of endogenous proangiogenic and antiangiogenic factors occurs. Although the focus of angiogenesis-related drug development has been geared to the discovery of antiangiogenic compounds for use in pathologies where excessive angiogenesis occurs (cance

  Although little is known about the etiopathogenesis of preeclampsia, this syndrome has a major impact on maternal and fetal health worldwide, since it is responsible for 10–15% of maternal deaths [16], [17], preterm births, intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), and fetal deaths [2]. In developing

  The first evidence in supporting the hypothesis that MAS receptors mediate the effects elicited by AT1 antagonists was provided by Iwai et al. (2012). The authors found that AT1 receptors triggers neointima formation after polyethylene-cuff placement around mouse femoral artery by reducing local ACE

  Materials and methods Results Discussion Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is the most common cause of end-stage renal disease [15], [16]. The pathogenesis of DKD is not fully understood, and there is no effective treatment. Although previous studies suggested that early lesions of DKD are foun

  Results and discussion In order to investigate the assembly dynamics and aggregate structures of Aβ16-22, twelve molecular systems with the number of peptides varying from 1 to 12 were studied. In all simulations, the same peptide concentration (~15 mM) was maintained by adjusting the dimensions

  Although mature fibrils formed from Aβ Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) have long been thought to be the main neurodegenerative agents in AD, recent evidence suggests that soluble multimers of these pathogenic proteins, referred to here as “oligomers,” may initiate the synaptic and neuronal dysfunction a

  2025-03-29

  

  We have recently begun to demonstrate this concept by reporting a novel class of β-hairpin peptidomimetics, built on a piperidine-pyrrolidine semi-rigid β-turn inducer [12] and bearing two recognition pentapeptide sequences, designed on oligomeric and fibril structures of Aβ1-42 (compound 1, Fig. 1)

  Despite clear evidence of a causative role for Aβ in AD, Aβ-mediated toxicity alone is insufficient to explain all facets of fully manifested AD. Indeed, a recent report found that two familial AD mutations in PSEN1, PSEN-L435F and PSEN-C410Y, resulted in a dysfunctional protein that does not cleave

  2025-03-28

  

  Another class of AMPK regulator is peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerase (PPIase) NIMA-interacting 1 (Pin1), which binds to a number of proteins and regulates oncogenesis and metabolic diseases (Khanal et al., 2013; Zhou and Lu, 2016). Pin1 has been shown to bind to and inhibit AMPK; therefore, at lea

  Fish aminopeptidases from Alaska Pollack roe and tuna pyloric caeca have been reported on [12,13]. More recently, we described the purification of a leucine aminopeptidase from the skeletal muscle of the common carp [14], red sea bream [15] and a lysine aminopeptidases from Japanese flounder [16].

  Aβ and tau in Alzheimer's disease The two classical histopathological hallmarks of AD are extracellular insoluble Aβ deposits, known as Aβ plaques, and intracellular accumulations of insoluble microtubule-associated tau protein, known as neurofibrillary tangles [14]. Aβ peptides are produced as a

  AAT enzyme activity was readily detected in crude cell-free extracts obtained from berry tissues of all accessions but displayed different substrate selectivities (Fig. 2). Cell-free extracts derived from ‘Muscat Hamburg’ berries showed the highest AAT activity with all alcoholic substrates tested,

  Phytoremediation technology is defined as the use of plants to remove contaminants from soils or to render them harmless, and is regarded as a cost-effective, environmental-friendly method for reclaiming soils contaminated by toxic metals (Lasat, 2002, Mahar et al., 2016, Marrugo-Negrete et al., 201
