objective(s):antibodies against actin, as one of the most widely studied structural and multifunctional housekeeping proteins in eukaryotic cells, are used as internal loading controls in western blot analyses. the aim of this study was to produce polyclonal antibody against a synthetic peptide derived from n-terminal region of β-actin protein to be used as a protein loading control in western ...

conclusions these data suggest that single bilateral microinjection of aβ (25-35) could impair memory and can be used as an ad model in wistar rats. results the results showed that aβ (25-35) significantly impaired both step-through latency and time in dark compartment in the passive avoidance task. background alzheimer's disease (ad) is the most common form of dementia that leads to neurotoxic...

alzheimer’s disease (ad) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that affects regions of the brain that control cognition, memory, language, speech and awareness to one’s physical surroundings. the pathological initiation and progression of ad is highly complex and its prevalence is on the rise. in his study, alzheimer's disease was induced with single injection of amyloid-β (aβ) pepti...

The peptide hormone insulin produced by pancreatic β-cells undergoes post-transcriptional processing before secretion. In particular, C-peptide is cleaved from pro-insulin to generate mature insulin. Here, we introduce a C-peptide-mCherry human iPSC line (HMGUi001-A-8). was generated CRISPR/Cas9 mediated heterozygous insertion of the mCherry sequence into exon 3 locus. We demonstrate that pluri...

Objective: Cancer has risen as the main cause of diseases with the highest rate of mortality in the world. Drugs used in cancer, usually demonstrate side effects on normal tissues. On the other hand, anticancer small peptides, effective on target tissues, should be safe on healthy organs, as being naturally originated compounds. In addition, they may have good pharmacokinetic properties. carnos...

Interactions of 3,3',4,4'-tetrahydroxybiphenyl (BPT) and three isomeric 3,3",4,4"-tetrahydroxyterphenyls (OTT, MTT, PTT) with Alzheimer’s amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) were studied by molecular dynamics simulation and molecular docking. Structural parameters such as Root-mean-square derivations (RMSD), radial distribution function (RDF), helix percentage and other physical parameters were obtained. Th...

Abstract Bronze has been used for various applications since ancient times, and therefore, its preservation is critical. However, preserving bronze challenging. The traditional inhibitor sealing method limited by toxicity effects. In this study, a benzotriazole (BTA) loaded with composite hydrogel of sodium alginate cyclic-peptide-grafted β-cyclodextrin was prepared. chemical structure the comp...

In the present study, we investigated possible involvement of TGF-β/Smad signaling pathway in osteopontin-derived SVVYGLR (SV) peptide-mediated migratory activities myogenic cells and evaluated facilitative effects SV peptide on differentiation vitro. The peptide-induced migration both human-derived satellite myoblasts was substantially suppressed by TGF-β1 receptor inhibitor SB431542 or SB5051...
