    Sammanfattning : Large amounts of nitric oxide (NO) are produced by the inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) upon inflammatory stimuli. NO is a multifaceted molecule, which may have beneficial effects as an antimicrobial agent in the immune defense, or cytotoxic effects in chronic inflammations, manifested as e.g. arthritis and asthma.

  3. 2. The Multifunctional HnRNP A1 Protein in the Regulation of the Cyp2a5 Gene : Connecting Transcriptional and Posttranscriptional Processes

    Författare :Tina Glisovic; Matti Lang; Francoise Raffalli-Mathieu; Lorenz Poellinger; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmaceutical biochemistry; Cyp2a5; DNA-protein interaction; gene regulation; hnRNP A1; nucleocytoplasmic shuttling; RNA-protein interaction; RNA stabilization; posttranscriptional; transcriptional; Farmaceutisk biokemi; Pharmaceutical biochemistry; Farmaceutisk biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : The mouse xenobiotic-inducible Cyp2a5 gene is both transcriptionally and posttranscriptionally regulated. One of the most potent Cyp2a5 inducers, the hepatotoxin pyrazole, increases the CYP2A5 mRNA half-life. LÄS MER

  4. 3. The role of hnRNP A1 and hnRNP C1/C2 in the regulation of the stress responsive genes Cyp2a5/2A6 and p53

    Författare :Kyle Christian; Matti Lang; Françoise Raffalli-Mathieu; Kirsi Vähägangas; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Molecular biology; hnRNP; Tumor Suppressor Protein p53; CYP2A5; CYP2A6; Apoptosis; hnRNP C Proteins; hnRNP protein A1; Cancer; Molekylärbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : The family of proteins known as heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins (hnRNPs) is large and diverse. Often, one and the same hnRNP will perform multiple cellular functions, leading to their description as “multifunctional proteins”. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Expression of Genes Encoding for Drug Metabolism in the Small Intestine

    Författare :Monica Lindell; Hans Lennernäs; Matti Lang; Olavi Pelkonen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmaceutical biochemistry; CYPs; UGTs; interindividual variation; small intestine; human; rat; artemisinin; CAR-receptor regulation; Farmaceutisk biokemi; Pharmaceutical biochemistry; Farmaceutisk biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : This investigation focused on the mRNA expression of drug metabolising Cytochromes P-450 (CYP) and UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGT) and the transport protein P-glycoprotein (Pgp) in the small intestine of humans and rats.The mRNA expression of the investigated genes in the human small intestine (duodenum) varies between individuals giving each one of us personal profile.
