Conversely, knockdown of LOXL4 suppressed rigidity, contraction and αSMA expression in SScDFs-hSE and TGF-β-induced ECM aggregation and collagen crosslinking in SAS.
This part of the cycle, which lies on the main kinetic pathway and coincides with the drive stroke, is maximally accelerated ∼100-fold by the combined association of ligands (Ca[II] and rigor myosin heads) with the thin filament.
We find that the introduction of Ang1 not only accelerates the recovery of NP-induced endothelial leakiness (NanoEL) but also promotes cell rigidity by increasing tubulin acetylation, thereby remodels the endothelial cells to further mitigate the effects of NP exposure through the activation of the Akt pathway.
Initial clinical presentations of abnormal muscle tone including flaccidity, rigidity and high CSF protein levels are independent prognostic factors for PO in adult JE patients.

TAZ1 is more rigid in its CITED2-bound state than in its free state or in complex with HIF-1α, with increased rigidity observed not only in the CITED2 binding site but also in regions of TAZ1 that undergo conformational changes between the HIF-1α- and CITED2-bound structures.
Building on this foundation, here we report that shielding an intra-protein H-bond, which confers rigidity to the binding pocket and which is not directly involved in drug-receptor interactions, can strongly influence RT for CCR2 antagonists.
Hypomyelination with atrophy of the basal ganglia and cerebellum (H-ABC) is a rare hypomyelinating leukodystrophy characterized by infantile or childhood onset of motor developmental delay, progressive rigidity and spasticity, with hypomyelination and progressive atrophy of the basal ganglia and cerebellum due to a genetic mutation of the TUBB4A gene.
By using the steric hindrance of the nonplanar linker, the connectivity of Zr<sub>6</sub> node can be tuned from 8-c to unusual 4-c. Further, through either one-pot synthesis or postsynthetic linker installation strategies, the connectivity of Zr<sub>6</sub> node can be tuned from 8-c to 10-c by the insertion of a secondary linear dicarboxylate linker, from which not only the temperature-dependent flexibility of the structure can be effectively controlled with enhanced rigidity and thermal stability but also a scaffold for postsynthetic metalation of Pd(II) catalyst for Heck coupling reaction is offered.
Moreover, through the comparison of structural data for 5, 14, 15, and 23 bound in both ChTS and hTS identified that active site rigidity is a driving force in determining inhibitor selectivity.
Interactions of AAV with its cellular receptor, AAVR, are key to understanding cell-entry and trafficking with the rigor needed to engineer tissue-specific vectors.
TAZ1 is more rigid in its CITED2-bound state than in its free state or in complex with HIF-1α, with increased rigidity observed not only in the CITED2 binding site but also in regions of TAZ1 that undergo conformational changes between the HIF-1α- and CITED2-bound structures.
Selective probing of gene-silenced cells lead to identification of unconventional myosin MYH15 as a novel mediator of elevated cell rigidity and invasiveness in TGFβ-stimulated NSCLC cells.
Here we test the contribution of a minimal asparagine ladder from the leucine-rich repeat protein pp32 to stability and investigate lattice rigidity and hydrogen bond character using solution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy.
CSL does not entail bridging studies between reference products, in vivo nonclinical studies, or powered efficacy studies and is, therefore, substantially more efficient than ToE while maintaining equivalent scientific rigor.
Here we test the contribution of a minimal asparagine ladder from the leucine-rich repeat protein pp32 to stability and investigate lattice rigidity and hydrogen bond character using solution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy.
Our experimental results show that elevation of rigidity and invasiveness of TGFβ-stimulated NSCLC cells correlates with upregulation of several cytoskeletal and motor proteins including vimentin, a canonical marker of EMT, and less-known unconventional myosins.
The isometric force decreased by ~50% in myofibrils treated with the ONOO<sup>-</sup> donor (SIN-1) or directly with ONOO<sup>-</sup>, which was independent of the cross-bridge abundancy condition (i.e., rigor or relaxing condition) during SIN-1 or ONOO<sup>-</sup> treatment.
Here, by a combination of NMR and fluorescence spectroscopy methods, we find that vesicular synaptobrevin-2 (syb-2) in its monomeric prefusion conformation shows high flexibility, characteristic for an IDP, but also a high dynamic range and increasing rigidity from the N to C terminus.
