Chemokine receptors CXCR4 and CCR5: Cell surface expression, signaling and modulation by β-arrestin 2
(2015-02-26)G protein-coupled receptors which mediate a large variety of different cellular effects have always been a field of significant interest for pharmaceutical research. Since it was shown that the chemokine receptors CXCR4 ... -
Endothelial Transformation Related Protein 53 Deletion Promotes Angiogenesis and Prevents Cardiac Fibrosis and Heart Failure Induced by Pressure Overload in Mice
(2015-01-21)Background− Accumulation of transformation related protein 53 (p53), apoptotic cell death and rarefication of myocardial angiogenesis may be involved in the development of cardiac dysfunction during chronic pressure ... -
Role of Secretory Processes in Cardiac Fibroblasts for Heart Failure Development and Progression
(2014-11-27)Cardiac fibroblasts play a major role in fibrogenesis associated with heart failure, since they produce ECM components and secrete important fibrosis-associated mediators, such as connective tissue growth factor (CTGF). ... -
Genetic polymorphisms in genes regulating renal ion excretion and diuretic drug effects
(2014-07-17)Regulation of human salt and fluid homeostasis is of basic biological importance. Kidney functions allow surviving under a wide variety of conditions with high or low salt diets and with high or low intake of fluids, even ... -
Prolyl-4-hydroxylase domain 3 (PHD3) is a critical terminator for cell survival of macrophages under stress conditions
(2014-07-14)On molecular level, cells sense changes in oxygen availability through the prolyl-4-hydroxylase domain enzymes (PHDs), which in turn regulate the protein stability of the α-subunit of the transcription factor hypoxia-inducible ...
