Role of Calcimycin in Regulation of Autophagy in THP-1 Cells [PDF]
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tb), is the known pathogen for causing tuberculosis. It infects approximately one third of the world’s population. According to the global tuberculosis report 2013 by WHO, Tuberculosis remains a major global health problem.

Effect of Calcimycin Regulated Autophagy on Nuclear Receptor HNF-4a Expression in THP-1 Cells [PDF]
Nuclear receptors (NRs) include 49 members and belong to family that function as ligand-inducible transcription factors. The basic structure of nuclear receptors involves the n - terminal transactivation domain and c - terminal ligand binding domain ...

Discovery and In Vitro Reconstitution of Closoxazole Biosynthesis from Pyxidicoccus fallax
The myxobacterium Pyxidicoccus fallax is found to be a producer of benzoxazole‐containing natural products named closoxazoles. In vitro studies with the biosynthetic enzymes reveal new insights into the reaction mechanism for closoxazole formation.

Sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+‐ATPase (SERCA) is a key protein involved in calcium homeostasis and the pivotal role of Ca2+ in a plethora of biological activities makes SERCA a powerful biological target. The intertwining between Ca2+ signalling and reactive oxygen species (ROS) has drawn much attention to investigate the photodynamic effect that ...

Nuclear patterns of human breast cancer cells during apoptosis: characterisation by fractal dimension and co-occurrence matrix statistics [PDF]
An analytical strategy combining fractal geometry and grey-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) statistics was devised to investigate ultrastructural changes in oestrogen-insensitive SK-BR3 human breast cancer cells undergoing apoptosis in vitro.

Identification of Pharmacological Modulators of HMGB1-Induced Inflammatory Response by Cell-Based Screening [PDF]
High mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), a highly conserved, ubiquitous protein, is released into the circulation during sterile inflammation (e.g. arthritis, trauma) and circulatory shock.

Abstract During cell invasion, large Extracellular Vesicle (lEV) release from host cells was dose‐dependently triggered by Trypanosoma cruzi metacyclic trypomastigotes (Mtr). This lEV release was inhibited when IP3‐mediated Ca2+ exit from the ER and further Ca2+ entry from plasma membrane channels was blocked, but whilst any store‐independent Ca2 ...

Regulation of patterned dynamics of local exocytosis in growth cones by netrin-1 [PDF]
Axonal guidance and synaptic specification depends on specific signaling mechanisms that occur in growth cones. While several signaling pathways implicated in cone navigation have been identified, membrane dynamics in growth cones remains largely unknown.

Mitochondrial plasticity and synaptic plasticity crosstalk; in health and Alzheimer's disease
The mechanism of mitochondrial transport within the neuron is mediated on the cytoskeleton. The retrograde (−) motion deployed the movement of mitochondria toward the cell body with the help of dynein, TRAK1/2, and Mrio1/2 protein. While anterograde (+) motion causes the movement toward the axon with the assistance of kinesin, TRAK1/2, and Miro1/2 ...
