In humans, TPα and TPβ isoforms of the thromboxane A2 receptor are transcriptionally regulated by distinct promoters, designated Prm1 and Prm3. Previous investigations identified two upstream repressor regions (URR) 1 and ...
Prostacyclin plays a central role in haemostasis, inflammation and nociception. However, the factors regulating expression of the prostacyclin receptor (IP) gene in humans, or in other species, have not been identified. ...
Prostacyclin and the prostacyclin receptor (IP) are implicated in mediating many of the atheroprotective effects of estrogen in both humans and in animal models but through unknown mechanisms. Hence, herein the influence ...
The prostanoid prostacyclin plays a central role in haemostasis and vascular repair. Recent studies investigating the regulation of the human prostacyclin receptor (hIP) gene identified an upstream repressor region (URR) ...
Prostacyclin and its prostacyclin receptor, the IP, play essential roles in regulating haemostasis and vascular tone and have also been implicated in a range cardio-protective effects, but through largely unknown mechanisms. ...
Thromboxane plays an essential role in haemostasis, regulating platelet aggregation and vessel tone. In humans, it signals through the TPalpha and TPbeta isoforms that are transcriptionally regulated by distinct promoters, ...
The human thromboxane (TX)A2 receptor (TP) gene encodes two TP isoforms, TPalpha and TP beta that are regulated by distinct promoters designated promoter (Prm) 1 and Prm3, respectively. Previous studies established that ...
Using a modified rotating-disk reactor to sparge oxygen to Staphylococcus epidermidis cultures, we found that oxygen negatively regulates biofilm development by influencing the activity of {sigma}B. Under anaerobic conditions, ...

This paper reports on research into the Dublin in which James Joyce’s short story “The Dead” is set. The research was conducted as part of the UCD Irish Virtual Research Library and Archive (IVRLA) series of demonstrator ...
Tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-α is a pro-inflammatory cytokine, which is synthesised and released in the brain by astrocytes, microglia and neurons in response to numerous internal and external stimuli. It is involved in ...
