Cholesterol efflux

Arteriosclerosis thrombosis and vascular biology, 2012
Monocytosis and neutrophilia are well-established risk factors for atherosclerosis and seem to play a causative role in lesion development. Studies in mice with defects in cholesterol efflux pathways have identified novel roles for the ATP-binding cassette transporter A1, ATP-binding cassette transporter G1, and apolipoprotein E in suppressing ...

Reevaluating the Activity of ZIF‐8 Based FeNCs for Electrochemical Ammonia Production

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Though receiving much attention, the field of electrochemical nitrogen reduction reaction (eNRR) to ammonia is marked by doubts about whether this reaction is possible in aqueous media. This work sheds light on this question for iron single‐atom on N‐doped carbon (FeNC) catalysts—a class of well‐known catalysts that is also worth testing for the sister

PPARγ and LXR Signaling Inhibit Dendritic Cell-Mediated HIV-1 Capture and trans-Infection [PDF]

, 2010
Dendritic cells (DCs) contribute to human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) transmission and dissemination by capturing and transporting infectious virus from the mucosa to draining lymph nodes, and transferring these virus particles to CD4+ T cells ...

Bacterial Drug Efflux Proteins.

Nippon Saikingaku Zasshi, 1995
近年,数多くの薬剤排出系が様々な菌種に見いだされ,有力な化学療法剤耐性機構として認識されつつある。特に,臨床上問題視されているMRSAや緑膿菌などの多剤耐性菌に薬剤排出蛋白が多く存在することは注目すべきである。遺伝子解析により多くの排出蛋白のアミノ酸配列が明らかにされた。薬剤排出蛋白はいずれも細胞質膜に存在するが,薬剤排出のエネルギー源として,H+の電気化学的勾配を用いるものと,ATPを用いるものと2種類ある。また,構造上関連性のない多種の薬剤を認識し排出する多剤排出蛋白の存在が排出による薬剤耐性のひとつの特徴であるが,特異性の高い排出蛋白との間で一次配列の相同性が高く,多剤排出蛋白がどのように基質を認識しているのか興味が持たれる ...

Harnessing Non‐Covalent Protein–Protein Interaction Domains for Production of Biocatalytic Materials Systems

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Non‐covalent protein–protein interactions mediated by SH3, PDZ, or GBD domains enable the self‐assembly of stable and biocatalytically active hydrogel materials. These soft materials can be processed into monodisperse foams that, once dried, exhibit enhanced mechanical stability and activity and are easily integrated into microstructured flow ...

Strigolactones spatially influence lateral root development through the cytokinin signaling network [PDF]

, 2015
Strigolactones are important rhizosphere signals that act as phytohormones and have multiple functions, including modulation of lateral root (LR) development.

Bio‐Friendly Artificial Muscles Based on Carbon Nanotube Yarns and Eutectogel Derivatives

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Solid‐state artificial muscles based on coiled commercial carbon nanotube yarns coated with eutectogel derivatives exhibit unipolar actuation through selective ion intercalation. Combining polyanionic and polycationic gels enables enhanced contractile stroke and high energy density.

Multidrug Efflux Systems in Helicobacter cinaedi

Antibiotics, 2012
Helicobacter cinaedi causes infections, such as bacteremia, diarrhea and cellulitis in mainly immunocompromised patients. This pathogen is often problematic to analyze, and insufficient information is available, because it grows slowly and poorly in ...

TRPV4 Contributes to Resting Membrane Potential in Retinal Müller Cells: Implications in Cell Volume Regulation [PDF]

, 2017
Neural activity alters osmotic gradients favoring cell swelling in retinal Müller cells. This swelling is followed by a regulatory volume decrease (RVD), partially mediated by an efflux of KCl and water. The transient receptor potential channel 4 (TRPV4),
