Angiotensin II analogues with N-terminal lactam bridge cyclization: An overview on AT1 receptor activation and tachyphylaxis

Alexandros G. SfakianakisστοΘεραπείαΠριν από 12 δευτερόλεπτα
Abstract Angiotensin II (AngII) is the final active product of the renin enzymatic cascade, which is responsible for sustaining blood pressure. To investigate the effect of N-terminal cyclization on AT1 activation and tachyphylaxis, we designed conformationally constrained analogues with an i-(i+1) lactam bridge. All analogues presented the same binding coefficient and tachyphylactic index, but some of them such as Cyclo (0-1a) [Glu0, endo-(Lys 1a)]-AngII and Cyclo (0-1a) [Asp0, endo-(Orn1a)]-AngII showed higher potency. The same tachyphylactic index presented by AngII and cyclic a... περισσότερα »

Type I interferon licenses enhanced innate recognition and transcriptional responses to Franciscella tularensis live vaccine strain

The innate inflammatory response to Francisella tularensis (Ft) in macrophages is significantly governed by the expression of type I interferon (IFN). Previously, the proteolytic processing and maturation of pro-IL-1β protein was shown to depend upon type I IFN expression. We show in this report that paracrine type I IFN can profoundly enhance innate recognition and […]

Alleviation of Metal-Induced Toxicity in Aquatic Plants by Exogenous Compounds: a Mini-Review

Abstract Metals are significant environmental pollutants, and their toxicity is a problem for all living organisms. Indeed, aquatic plants are particularly sensitive to the excess of metal ions. Several researches report that aquatic plants exposed to metal-induced toxicity showed similar responses (e.g. inhibition of growth and induction of oxidative stress). Meanwhile, many studies were involved […]

Impacts of Invasive Earthworms on Soil Mercury Cycling: Two Mass Balance Approaches to an Earthworm Invasion in a Northern Minnesota Forest

Abstract Invasive earthworms perturb natural forest ecosystems that initially developed without them, mainly by consuming the forest floor (an organic rich surficial soil horizon) and by mixing the upper parts of the soil. The fate of mercury (Hg) formerly contained in the forest floor is largely unknown. We used two mass balance approaches (simple mass […]

Fish were exposed to ½ LC50/96 h values of both bulk and nano Zn meal for 7, 14, and 28 days. Concerning metal bioaccumulation factor (BAF), […]
