Structural Overview Of Mammalian Zinc Metalloproteinases
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) are crucial for homeostasis (tissue remodelling and repair, bone growth, wound healing, etc.) and pathology (metastasis, angiogenesis, aneurysm rupture, etc.). Upregulated MMPs from macrophages are thus a two-edged sword, playing both defensive and aggressive roles. The related family of ADAMs (a disintegrin and a metalloproteinase) is sometimes overlooked becaus...
متن کاملCharacterization of a cetacean aromatase (CYP19) and the phylogeny and functional conservation of vertebrate aromatase.
Aromatase (cytochrome P450 19, CYP19, P450arom) is the enzyme responsible for the production of estrogens, hormones critical for development and reproduction. Aromatase was sequenced from a white-sided dolphin (Lagenorhynchus acutus) ovary, transiently transfected into HEK 293 cells, and the expressed protein was characterized for aromatase activity in the presence of androstenedione and testos...
متن کاملP-65: Maternal Effect Genes in Mammalian Reproduction
Background: Regulation of gene expression in mammalian embryos is not completely known. Pre-implantation embryos need maternal RNA and proteins synthesized during oogenesis, to regulate development before mater-embryo transition, as the grown oocyte and the 1-cell zygote are transcriptionally silent. There are some oocyte-specific genes called maternal effect genes which may account for this ea...
متن کاملThe roles of RFamide-related peptides (RFRPs), mammalian gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH) orthologues in female reproduction
Objective(s): To benefit from reproduction and deal with challenges in the environmental conditions, animals must adapt internal physiology to maximize the reproduction rate. Maladaptive variations in the neurochemical systems and reproductive system can lead to manifestation of several significant mammalian reprocesses, including mammalian ovarian lifespan. RFamide-related peptide (RFRP, Rfrp)...
متن کاملUptake of Mammalian Chromosomes by Mammalian Cells
Chromosomes isolated from mouse leukemia L1210 cells were taken up by mouse macrophages, HeLa cells, and rat embryo fibroblasts following simple exposure in vitro. The process, which resembles pinocytosis or phagocytosis, was traced by autoradiography of chromosomes prelabeled with thymidine-H(3), and by staining techniques and phase contrast microscopy. During the first six hours, the uptake o...
