The enzyme 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 (11β-HSD2) is selectively expressed in aldosterone target tissues, conferring aldosterone selectivity for the mineralocorticoid receptor. A diminished activity causes salt-sensitive hypertension. The mechanism of the variable and distinct 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 gene (HSD11B2) expression in the cortical collecting duct is poorly...

To explore the function of kaempferol on lung cancer cell A549 and microRNA-199 variation is objective study. The proliferation was detected by counting kit-8. expression mammalian target rapamycin, phosphorylated light chain 3-?/?, beclin-1, B-cell lymphoma 2 2-associated X protein showed Western blot. determined quantitative polymerase reaction. adenocarcinomic human alveolar basal epithelial...

mirs are 17-25 nucleotide non-coding rnas. these rnas target approximately 80% of protein coding mrnas. mirs control gene expression and altered expression of them affects the development of cancer. mirs can function as tumor suppressor via down-regulation of proto-oncogenes and may function as oncogenes by suppressing tumor suppressors. myeloproliferative neoplasias (formerly known as chronic ...

objective: different signaling pathways have been identified that are involved in the cellular response to opiates. the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway is one of the most important signaling pathways underlying the neuronal response to opiates. micrornas (mirnas) are considered to be post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression with paramount significance, which plays key roles i...

Drug resistance is the leading cause of death in prostate cancer patients. Therefore, exploring mechanism underlying drug and identifying novel therapeutic targets are urgently needed. Long non-coding ribonucleic acid disrupted renal carcinoma 3 acts as a tumor suppressor gene several types. However, to date, no study has investigated biological function long cancer. Gene expression was detecte...

Abstract We present a new ground-based visible transmission spectrum of the high-gravity, hot Jupiter HAT-P-23b, obtained as part ACCESS project. derive from five transits observed between 2016 and 2018, with combined wavelength coverage 5200 Å 9269 in 200 bins, median precision 247 ppm per bin. HAT-P-23b’s relatively high surface gravity ( g ? 30 m s ?2 ), updated stellar planetary parameters ...

Reactions of 5-phenyl-3(3H)-thioxo-1,2,4-dithiazole (1) with unsaturated and active phosphonium salts as well as with phosphonates, at r. t. and under the effect of basic catalysis, afforded mainly 1,3,5dithiazines 5, 12, 17a, 17b, 23a or 23b. Substituted 1,3-dithiol 7 and 1,3-thiazoles 13, 19a, 19b, 22a and 22b were isolated as by-products. 1,3,5-Dithiazine products showed pharmacological pote...
