Emerging evidence suggest that transcription factors play multiple roles in the development of pancreatitis, a necroinflammatory condition lacking specific therapy. Estrogen-related receptor γ (ERRγ), a pleiotropic transcription factor, has been reported t ...
Specialized contractile function and increased mitochondrial number and oxidative capacity are hallmark features of myocyte differentiation. The estrogen-related receptors (ERRs) can regulate mitochondrial biogenesis or mitochondrial enzyme expression in s ...
Accumulation of misfolded alpha-synuclein (alpha S) is mechanistically linked to neurodegeneration in Parkinson's disease (PD) and other alpha-synucleinopathies. However, how alpha S causes neurodegeneration is unresolved. Because cellular accumulation of ...
The ketonitrone 8 was prepared from D-fructose as an inexpensive starting material, and was used in a stereoselective synthesis of 1-deoxymannojirimycin (4), its previously unknown N-hydroxy analogue 15, as well as the polyhydroxylated ketonitrone 14. The ...
The ability to regulate gene expression constitutes a prerequisite for the development of gene therapy strategies aimed at the treatment of neurologic disorders. In the present work, we used tetracycline (Tet)-regulated lentiviral vectors to investigate th ...
