The synthesis and accumulation of collagen play an important role in the formation and progression of hypoxic pulmonary hypertension. Baicalin has been reported to prevent bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis. However, the role of baicalin in the treatment of pulmonary hypertension remains unknown. A disintegrin and metalloprotease with thrombospondin type-1 motif (ADAMTS-1) is a secreted enzym...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Among the array of microangiopathies that may occur during pregnancy, HELLP syndrome and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) produce similar laboratory findings (hemolytic anemia and thrombocytopenia), although neurological symptoms prevail in TTP and abnormal liver function in HELLP syndrome. It is clinically important to distinguish the two entities given that ...
It has previously been shown that BMS-345541 [4(2'-aminoethyl)amino-1,8-dimethylimidazo(1,2-a)quinoxaline], a highly-selective inhibitor of IkappaB kinase (IKK), blocks both inflammation and joint destruction in murine collagen-induced arthritis. Although this agent has been shown to inhibit nuclear factor-kappaB-dependent cytokine expression in mice, we examined whether the inhibitor directly ...
The aim of the study was to investigate the mechanism of microRNA (miR)-146a-mediated activation of interleukin-6/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (IL-6/STAT3) in lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration. To obtain intervertebral tissue, we recruited 5 patients with lumbar intervertebral disc herniation (experimental group) and 5 patients with lumbar burst fracture (control gro...
ADAMs (a disintegrin and metalloprotease) are membrane-bound enzymes, capable of shedding a multitude of proteins from the surface of the cell. They are therefore considered crucial modulators of physiological and pathophysiological processes. The structure and function of ADAMs is related to those of a family of snake venom metalloproteases which also possess a potential adhesion domain as wel...
Several features of the pigment defect in belted (bt) mutant mice suggest that it occurs as a result of a defect in melanocyte development that is unique from those described for other classical white-spotting mutations. We report here that bt mice carry mutations in Adamts20, a novel member of the ADAMTS family of secreted metalloproteases. Adamts20 shows a highly dynamic pattern of expression...
OBJECTIVE Semaphorin 4D (Sema4D)/CD100 has pleiotropic roles in immune activation, angiogenesis, bone metabolism, and neural development. We undertook this study to investigate the role of Sema4D in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). METHODS Soluble Sema4D (sSema4D) levels in serum and synovial fluid were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Cell surface expression and transcripts of Sema4D...
We investigated whether luteolin affects the gene expression, secretion and activity of matrix metalloproteinase-3 (MMP-3) in primary cultured rabbit articular chondrocytes, as well as production of MMP-3 in the rat knee to evaluate the potential chondro-protective effects of luteolin. Rabbit articular chondrocytes were cultured in a monolayer and IL-1β-induced gene expression levels of MMP-3, ...
