It can attenuate experimental colitis by inhibiting the activation of NF-κB and reducing the activity of p38 MAp3810]–[12].
In view of this result, dasatinib may directly inhibit the complete activation of FAK through reducing the activity of Src TK.
Thus, energy deprivation in plants is a consequence caused by abiotic stresses reducing the activity of the COX respiratory pathway and activating the AOX respiratory pathway in mitochondria.
Reducing the activity of dpy-21 suppressed dauer arrest in animals with reduced DAF-2/IGFR signaling.
A study published in 2013 found that just 15 minutes' meditation in novices had immediate effects on the expression of many genes, for example increasing the activity of the gene that makes telomerase and reducing the activity of genes involved in inflammatory and stress responses.
Another option is the leukoreduction, reducing the activity of preactivated neutrophils.
Detailed investigation of the starch biosynthetic pathway has revealed that reducing the activity of specific isoforms of branching enzymes and starch synthases can lead to increased amylose.
Inhibition of the afferent muscle input could be rather effective in reducing the activity of the central neurons, as evidenced in the present study using local injection of anesthetics into the temporal muscle.
SNP is a NO donor compound that reportedly exhibited a deleterious effect on mitochondrial function and survival of synoviocytes [31] while reducing the activity of complex IV of the mitochondrial electron transport chain (MTC) with consequent apoptotic cell death [32].
Researchers working with mice have shown that reducing the activity of an enzyme involved in making fat can prevent animals from gaining weight even on a high fat diet.
Taylor's experience is similar to that reported by many meditators and suggests that reducing the activity of attentional areas in the left side of the brain diminishes one filter on our awareness--and, thus, allows us to experience an expanded consciousness.
