Revised Exon Structure of l-DOPA Decarboxylase (DDC) Reveals Novel Splice Variants Associated with Colorectal Cancer Progression

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a highly heterogenous malignancy with an increased mortality rate. Aberrant splicing is a typical characteristic of CRC, and several studies support the prognostic value of particular transcripts in this malignancy.

L-Dopa-Decarboxylase (DDC) Is a Positive Prognosticator for Breast Cancer Patients and Epinephrine Regulates Breast Cancer Cell (MCF7 and T47D) Growth In Vitro According to Their Different Expression of Gi- Protein- Coupled Receptors

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
A coherence between thyroid dysfunction and breast cancer incidence exists. Thyroid hormone metabolites bind to TAAR1 (trace amine-associated receptor 1) and through that modulate the serotonergic and dopaminergic system.

Large vs. Small NHC Ligands in Nickel(0) Complexes: The Coordination of Olefins, Ketones and Aldehydes at [Ni(NHC)2]

European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, Volume 2020, Issue 33, Page 3194-3207, September 7, 2020., 2020
The reactivity of [Ni(Mes2Im)2] 1 and [Ni(iPr2Im)2] (as provided by [Ni2(iPr2Im)4(µ‐(η2:η2)‐COD)] 2) towards simple olefins, ketones, and aldehydes is reported. This study demonstrates how substrate binding to bis‐NHC nickel complexes can be fine‐tuned upon a change of the sterics of the NHC ligand.

Nrf2 Ameliorates DDC-Induced Sclerosing Cholangitis and Biliary Fibrosis and Improves the Regenerative Capacity of the Liver.

Toxicological Sciences, 2019
The Nrf2 pathway protects against oxidative stress and induces regeneration of various tissues. Here, we investigated whether Nrf2 protects from sclerosing cholangitis and biliary fibrosis and simultaneously induces liver regeneration.

Analysis of Expression and Functional Activity of Aromatic L-Amino Acid Decarboxylase (DDC) and Serotonin Transporter (SERT) as Potential Sources of Serotonin in Mouse Ovary

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2019
The origin of serotonin in the ovary is the key question for understanding mechanisms of serotonergic regulation of reproductive function. We performed a study of the expression and functional activity of the serotonin transporter (SERT) and the enzyme ...

Comprehensive proteomics of CSF, plasma, and urine identify DDC and other biomarkers of early Parkinson’s disease

Acta Neuropathologica
Parkinson’s disease (PD) starts at the molecular and cellular level long before motor symptoms appear, yet there are no early-stage molecular biomarkers for diagnosis, prognosis prediction, or monitoring therapeutic response.

Update of the Xylella spp. host plant database

EFSA Journal, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2018., 2018
Abstract Following a request from the European Commission, EFSA periodically updates the database on the host plants of Xylella spp. While previous editions of the database (2015 and 2016) dealt with the species Xylella fastidiosa only, this database version addresses the whole genus Xylella, including therefore both species X.

Protective effect of green perilla-derived chalcone derivative DDC on amyloid β protein-induced neurotoxicity in primary cortical neurons.

Biological and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 2019
Amyloid β protein (Aβ) causes neurotoxicity and cognitive impairment in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Oxidative stress is closely related to the pathogenesis of AD.

Pivotal roles of Kupffer cells in the progression and regression of DDC-induced chronic cholangiopathy

Scientific Reports, 2018
Kupffer cells (KCs) are key players in maintaining tissue homeostasis and are involved in various liver diseases. However, the roles of KCs in the pathogenesis of cholangiopathy are largely unknown.
