In the kidney, prostaglandins formed by cyclooxygenase 1 and 2 (COX-1 and COX-2) play an important role in regulating renal blood flow. In the present study, we report our observations regarding a unique modulatory effect of renal microsomal preparation ...

Computational exploration of copper catalyzed vinylogous aerobic oxidation of unsaturated compounds
Selective oxidation is one of the most important and challenging transformations in both academic research and chemical industry. Recently, a highly selective and efficient way to synthesize biologically active γ-hydroxy-α,β-unsaturated molecules from Cu-

Rapid bioconcentration of steroids in the plasma of three-spined stickleback Gasterosteus aculeatus exposed to waterborne testosterone and 17β-oestradiol [PDF]
The relationship over time between the concentrations of two steroids, singly and in combination, in a static exposure system and in the blood of three-spined stickleback Gasterosteus aculeatus, held within the exposure system was investigated. Groups of

Conversion of cholesterol injected into man to cholestanol via a 3-ketonic intermediate
Cholesterol-3-3H,4-14C was injected intravenously in man and its transformation to cholestanol was studied. From the 3H:14C ratios in cholestanol isolated from blood, evidence for the participation of a ketonic intermediate in the conversion was obtained.

Reduction and esterification of cholesterol and sitosterol by homogenates of feces
Mixtures of cholesterol-1,2-3H and sitosterol-4-14C have been incubated with suspensions of feces in order to compare the behavior of the phytosterol with transformations known to take place with cholesterol under these conditions. Within the limitations

Cryo‐EM structure of orphan G protein‐coupled receptor GPR21
GPR21 belongs to class A orphan G protein‐coupled receptor (GPCR). The endogenous ligands for human GPR21 remain unidentified. GPR21 expression is associated with developing type 2 diabetes (T2DM), a multifactorial metabolic disease caused by pancreatic ...

3D model of amphioxus steroid receptor complexed with estradiol [PDF]
The origins of signaling by vertebrate steroids are not fully understood. An important advance was the report that an estrogen-binding steroid receptor [SR] is present in amphioxus, a basal chordate with a similar body plan as vertebrates.

Symmetric Tensor Decomposition by an Iterative Eigendecomposition Algorithm [PDF]
We present an iterative algorithm, called the symmetric tensor eigen-rank-one iterative decomposition (STEROID), for decomposing a symmetric tensor into a real linear combination of symmetric rank-1 unit-norm outer factors using only eigendecompositions ...
