The structure of testis angiotensin-converting enzyme (tACE-g13) in complex with the inhibitor RXPA380
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), a zinc metalloprotease, is a key regulator of the mammalian renin-angiotensin system (RAS) Primarily, ACF is a dipeptidl peptidase which cleaves angiotensin I to produce angiotensin II, a potent vasoconstrictor. By the same enzymatic mechanism, ACE also …

Optimización de la selección de pacientes con carcinoma hepatocelular a tratamiento con quimioembolización transarterial hepática (TACE)
… es la quimioembolización transarterial hepática (TACE). Además de estos pacientes, tumores en estadio más precoz no candidatos a opciones curativas pueden igualmente recibir este tratamiento siguiendo lo que se denomina la “migración terapéutica”. Desde 2007 se ha incorporado la TACE con …

Influence of Preoperative Transcatheter Arterial Chemoembolization on Gene Expression in the HIF-1α Pathway in patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma
… transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) is the most common treatment option in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), its clinical benefits remain still controversial. Since TACE induces hypoxic necrosis in tumors, hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) could …

Human testis angiotensin-converting enzyme: crystal structure of a glycosylation mutant and investigation of a putative hinge-mechanism by normal mode analysis
… of crystal structures of human testis ACE (tACE), and homologues Drosophila AnCE and human ACE2. tACE is identical to the C-terminal domain of somatic ACE, which consists of two homologous domains, each having a slightly different substrate-specificity. This thesis describes the …

Retrospective study at a single tertiary hospital in South Africa (Groote Schuur) on the treatment outcome in patients who underwent TransArterial Chemo-Embolization (TACE) for hepatocellular carcinoma
… options. Transarterial chemoembolisation (TACE) is an option widely reported and used for palliative care and as a bridge to liver transplantation. Limited South African studies have examined the outcome of this type of therapy, with one comparing survival benefit and hospital stays in TACE …

The Role of FOXO3 in Mechanisms of Doxorubicin Resistance in Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Trans-arterial chemoembolization (TACE) with doxorubicin is commonly used to treat hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but has limited efficacy due to a high level of resistance. The factors that determine the sensitivity to TACE-doxorubicin are unknown. FOXO3 is a multifunctional transcription factor …

A Molecular Basis for the C-Domain Selectivity of Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme
… domains, N- and C-domain, and testisACE (tACE), corresponding to the C-domain of sACE. Despite a high degree of sequenceidentity, these two domains display marked differences in substrate and inhibitor specificity.Furthermore, the C-domain of ACE has been implicated to play a dominant role …

간세포암 환자의 치료에 있어 수술적 절제술과 간동맥 화학색전술 치료요법에 따른 생존율 비교 연구
… with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) which was a non-operative method were investigated and compared. Further, statistical significances in the survival periods were examined by controlling prognostic factors affecting the survival rates of the patients with hepatocellular …

Development of Multifunctional Drug Delivery Systems for Locoregional Therapy
… effective. For transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) therapy of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the most current approaches do not allow repeat treatment as the drug delivery vehicle is not degradable. In addition, image contrast agents for visualization are administered separately, leading to …

Characterisation of the structural motifs Involved in the cleavage and secretion of human angiotensin-converting enzyme
… and physiological processes. Testis ACE (tACE) is shed at a higher rate than somatic ACE and it has been proposed that regions in its ectodomain direct its shedding. Discrete secondary structures on the surface of the distal ectodomain of tACE were replaced with their N-domain counterparts …

Mechanisms of chloride modulated activity in the C-domain of angiotensin-converting enzyme
… Chloride binding in the chloride 1 pocket of tACE was found to affect positioning of K511 and potentially alter the conformation of the active site. This would alter C-terminal substrate interactions, which were suggested to affect chloride 2 pocket ion affinity by coordinating Y520 and affect …

Molecular Players in Lupus: Leads from Proteomic Screens
… CD11b+/CD14+ leukocytes by proteases ADAM10 and TACE (ADAM17) to abrogate macrophage anti-inflammatory signaling through Twist. I further find that β-catenin is dysregulated in SLE but the deletion of β-catenin in lupus-prone macrophages does not appreciably change disease course. Lastly, I find …

The Effects Of Oxidative Stress On P75ntr Signaling In Dopaminergic Neurons
… by Tumor Necrosis Factor converting enzyme (TACE) and γ-secretase has been observed to be associated with an increase in neurodegeneration. In a previous study, p75NTR was discovered to become activated in sympathetic neurons in response to oxidative stress induced by 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE) …

Clinical and Pathologic Characteristics of Hepatocellular Carcinoma following Resection according to the Tumor Size
… transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE). The 307 patients’ clinicopathologic data were retrospectively investigated. The tumor size criteria (2cm, 5cm and 10cm) were predictive factors for survival in univariate analysis, but not in multivariate analysis. Vascular invasion, tumor …

Terapia locorregional combinada en pacientes cirróticos con hepatocarcinoma atendidos en un centro de referencia en Colombia entre 2020-2024
Introducción: En hepatocarcinoma, las terapias TACE y ablación tienen eficacia limitada en monoterapia. Evidencia reciente sugiere que combinadas son seguras, potencian ventajas de cada una superando las limitaciones y amplían el efecto, especialmente para lesiones grandes o múltiples. Métodos: …
