• The genes for the receptors

  2022-02-18

  

  The genes for the receptors for peptides similar to glucagon are dispersed on three human chromosomes, with two on chromosome 17 (GCGR and GLP2R) and one each on chromosomes 6 (GLP1R) and 19 (GIPR) (see Table S1). The exon–intron gene structures of these genes are similar, as are the genes for other

  2022-02-18

  

  The Hedgehog (Hh) pathway is linked to the development of several types of epithelial cancers (Rubin and de Sauvage, 2006). A paracrine mechanism has been implicated in CAF activation, with Hh ligands secreted by cancer cells activating the glioma-associated transcription factors (Gli) in surroundin

  Recently, a lot of synthetic FFA1 agonists containing acidic moieties have been reported (Fig. 1) [13], [14], [15], [16], [17], [18], [19], [20], [21]. Notably, most of FFA1 agonists usually have the common biphenyl scaffold, which resulted in a relative deprivation in structure types of agonists [2

  2022-02-18

  

  From a cell signaling perspective, given the importance of agonist-directed signaling and biased agonism, one goal of this research update was to review the known contributions of G protein-dependent versus β-arrestin-dependent signals toward promotion of beneficial functions that FFA4 facilitates.

  Recently, they reported an enyne chemotype agonist (21, Fig. 13) with low lipophilicity, small polar surface area (PSA) and high potency (Clog P=3.8, tPSA=37 A2, EC50=20nM), further derived from TUG-424. The compound endowed fast oral UMI-77 receptor (tmax=15min) and a decent pharmacokinetic profil

  2022-02-18

  

  Ning et al. showed that LPC 18:1 appeared to increase insulin release through both GPR119-dependent and -independent mechanisms (Ning et al., 2008). In our study, we have shown that not only GPR119 but also GPR40 and GPR55 participate in LPC-stimulated insulin secretion (Fig. 4, Fig. 5) and target p

  In human cancers, it has been identified that FOXC2-AS1 functions as an oncogenic RNA. For instance, in osteosarcoma, FOXC2-AS1 regulates the expression of FOXC2 at the transcription and post-transcription levels to promote doxorubicin resistance by facilitating ABCB1 expression (C.L. Zhang et al.,

  Discussion The LISA analysis indicated that HIV was geographically clustered in the north-west districts of Amhara Region. A high rate of HIV infection was found in Metema and Mirab Armacho districts, which share borders with Eretria and Sudan. Various studies have linked risk of infectious disea

  2022-02-17

  

  Toxoplasma gondii is an exceptionally tractable apicomplexan parasite that expresses a limited yet representative subset of apicomplexan cyclase orthologs, making it an ideal model for investigating cyclic nucleotide signaling in Apicomplexa. Of the five putative nucleotide cyclases, only TgACα1 and

  An interesting question is why RhoF has such the slow rate of GDP dissociation. The amino lxr synthesis mutations in a presumable GDP-binding site of RhoF had only moderate effects on the GDP dissociation (Fig. 3C), which suggests a mechanism involving the global amino acid sequence of RhoF, rather

  Molecular dynamics studies have proved an effective means of characterising transition state pathways between the inward- and outward-facing states, and providing the relative propensity for each state. For example, long-timescale simulations of the membrane-embedded LeuT dimer, totalling ∼21 μs, ha
