CP‐25 exerts therapeutic effects in mice with dextran sodium sulfate‐induced colitis by inhibiting GRK2 translocation to downregulate the TLR4‐NF‐κB‐NLRP3 inflammasome signaling pathway in macrophages

IUBMB Life - A Journal of the International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2021
Deficiency of G protein‐coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2) was found to protect mice from dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)‐induced colitis. Paeoniflorin‐6′‐O‐benzene sulfonate (CP‐25) has been shown to exert anti‐inflammatory immune regulatory effects in ...

Comparative analyses and phylogenetic relationships of thirteen Pholidota species (Orchidaceae) inferred from complete chloroplast genomes

BMC Plant Biology, 2023
Background The orchid genus Pholidota Lindl. ex Hook. is economically important as some species has long been used in traditional medicine. However, the systematic status of the genus and intergeneric relationships inferred from previous molecular ...

Complete chloroplast genome of Oncidium Gower Ramsey and evaluation of molecular markers for identification and breeding in Oncidiinae

BMC Plant Biology, 2010
BackgroundOncidium spp. produce commercially important orchid cut flowers. However, they are amenable to intergeneric and inter-specific crossing making phylogenetic identification very difficult. Molecular markers derived from the chloroplast genome can

Lepidopteran wing scales contain abundant cross-linked film-forming histidine-rich cuticular proteins

Communications Biology, 2021
Scales are symbolic characteristic of Lepidoptera; however, nothing is known about the contribution of cuticular proteins (CPs) to the complex patterning of lepidopteran scales.

Molecular mobility and nucleocytoplasmic flux in hepatoma cells

Journal of Cell Biology, 1986
Fluorescence microphotolysis (photobleaching) was used to measure, in single polyethylene glycol-induced polykaryons of hepatoma tissue culture cells, nucleocytoplasmic flux and intracellular mobility for a series of dextrans ranging in molecular mass ...

Visualization and Molecular Analysis of Actin Assembly in Living Cells

Journal of Cell Biology, 1998
Actin filament assembly is critical for eukaryotic cell motility. Arp2/3 complex and capping protein (CP) regulate actin assembly in vitro. To understand how these proteins regulate the dynamics of actin filament assembly in a motile cell, we visualized ...

Structure of the radial spoke head and insights into its role in mechanoregulation of ciliary beating

Nature Structural & Molecular Biology, 2020
Motile cilia power cell locomotion and drive extracellular fluid flow by propagating bending waves from their base to tip. The coordinated bending of cilia requires mechanoregulation by the radial spoke (RS) protein complexes and the microtubule central ...
