  • These observations are of considerable significance if future research demonstrates that higher levels of TNF-α and MMP-9 are generated by neonatal rat microglia as a result of either (1) a synergistic interaction between domoic acid " ...when in association with subtoxic concentrations of excitatory amino acids.

  • TCH2 has 161 amino acids with four EF-hands and TCH3 has 324 amino acids with six EF-hands.

  • Based on their sequence annotation and functional classification [ 14 ] , the 491 genes were selected because their products are presumably involved in or associated with three major pathways of nutrient partitioning: the synthesis and transport of fatty acids, carbohydrates, and proteins.

  • To date, the genes that have been shown to be responsive to regulation by FXR encode proteins involved in the biosynthesis and transport of bile acids [ 13 ] . Bile acids have been shown to modulate a variety of other cellular functions, such as secretion of lipoproteins from hepatocytes [ 14 15 ] and translocation of bile acid transporters to the hepatocyte canalicular membrane [ 16 ] . In McNtcp cells, which are liver-derived cells engineered to transport bile acids actively [ 17 ] , taurine-conjugated bile acids induce the formation of intracellular vesicles that resembles structures observed in cholestatic liver cells without apparent cellular cytotoxicity [ 1 18 ] . In contrast, glycine-conjugated bile acids promote apoptosis in these cells [ 19 ] . Thus, different classes of conjugated bile acids stimulate distinctive responses in McNtcp cells.

  • The pattern of residue conservation seen within this core of 250 amino acids is thought to be due to selective evolutionary pressure to preserve the major function of this gene family: catalysis of phosphate transfer from ATP to a protein substrate.
