Stochastic Resonance can drive adaptive physiological processes
Stochastic resonance (SR) is a concept from the physics and engineering communities that has applicability to both systems physiology and other living systems. In this paper, it will be argued that stochastic resonance plays a role in driving behavior in neuromechanical systems. The theory of stochastic resonance will be discussed, followed by a series of expected outcomes, and two tests of sto...
متن کاملProtein processing by the placental protease , cathepsin
Cathepsin P is a member of a family of placentally expressed cathepsins (PECs). The closest human homolog of cathepsin P is cathepsin L, a broad specificity enzyme that has functions in many tissues in addition to placenta. The gene duplications that gave rise to the PECs provide a rare opportunity to define proteolytic functions in placenta, a transient organ unique to mammals. Peptidyl substr...
متن کاملAtSWEET13 and AtSWEET14 regulate gibberellin-mediated physiological processes
Transmembrane transport of plant hormones is required for plant growth and development. Despite reports of a number of proteins that can transport the plant hormone gibberellin (GA), the mechanistic basis for GA transport and the identities of the transporters involved remain incomplete. Here, we provide evidence that Arabidopsis SWEET proteins, AtSWEET13 and AtSWEET14, which are members of a f...

متن کاملThe HIV protease inhibitor saquinavir inhibits HMGB1 driven inflammation by targeting the interaction of cathepsin V with TLR4/MyD88.
Extracellular HMGB1 (disulfide form), via activation of Toll-Like-Receptor (TLR4)-dependent signaling, is a strong driver of pathologic inflammation in both acute and chronic conditions. Identification of selective inhibitors of HMGB1-TLR4 signaling could offer novel therapies that selectively target proximal endogenous activators of inflammation. A cell-based screening strategy led us to ident...
