  Excessive adiposity is also a key pathogenic factor in the development of CVD. Through reductions in bodyweight, GPR120 agonism is therefore also implicated as a potential therapy for obesity and heart and vessel disease. In addition to weight loss, when compared with their wild-type littermates, GP

  We also demonstrated that inhibition of NAAG hydrolysis to suppress glutamate production through a GCPII inhibitor is a viable target for cancer therapy. GCPII is also known as N-acetyl-L-aspartyl-L-glutamate peptidase I (NAALADase I) or NAAG peptidase (Pinto et al., 1996), and its increased express

  In vitro studies have shown that some antidepressant drugs bind to NMDA receptors and inhibit the binding of NMDA receptor ligands [18]. Similarly, several research teams have reported that tricyclic antidepressants can modulate the release and/or uptake of glutamate [19]. In this study, we found th

  Since the late 1940s, synthetic GC (e.g. prednisone, prednisolone, dexamethasone) have been used extensively in the treatment of chronic inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and asthma, and for their immunosuppressant action in preventing organ rejection post transplantation. Cortico

  Multiple studies from our laboratory and others, which have used stoichiometric kinetic analyses of ANP/NPRA, have provided strong evidence that bound ligand-receptor complexes are internalized and processed intracellularly, and that degraded products are released into the culture medium of various

  In an attempt to gain increased molecular insights into in vivo transmigration of neutrophils, we applied an aseptic inflammatory skin chamber model. In this model, recruitment of neutrophils is typically associated with phenotypic changes of many plasma membrane localized adhesion receptors in peri

  Next, we designed substituents of the 6-position. Edge-to-face aromatic interaction between aromatic ring of ligand and Phe162B needed to be retained because the interaction seems to be important for tight binding. 3′-Position of the 6-phenyl group of directs to a hydrophilic space where W1 exists.

  Glial cells have emerged as important protagonists of the central nervous system (CNS) physiology (Chen and Swanson, 2003; Kettenmann and Verkhratsky, 2008; Parpura and Verkhratsky, 2012). As widely described in the literature, astrocytes regulate glutamatergic synapses by clearance of glutamate in

  Such responses have led to the idea that elasmobranchs may be glucose intolerant. However, certain species, such as the North Pacific spiny dogfish (Squalus suckleyi; note that the species used in this study was previously referred to as Squalus acanthias but a study by Ebert et al. (2010) provided

  The caseins are a family of milk phosphoproteins whose biological function is to provide supersaturating concentrations of calcium, phosphates, and essential Cy5.5 NHS ester receptor to the neonate (Vonderhaar and Ziska, 1989). α- and β-caseins, the most abundant of the milk caseins, are described

  2021-12-14

  

  Ghrelin is a brain-gut peptide hormone secreted from the stomach to stimulate food intake by acting on its receptor, growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR). GHSR is expressed throughout the brain and in NPY/AgRP neurons in the ARC (Cowley et al., 2003, Willesen et al., 1999). Ghrelin-expressing

  Amongst oxidants that we have studied, PMS is unique in having a greater effect in deoxygenated cells. The resulting phenotype shows some similarities with the increased cation permeability shown by deoxygenated sickle Vandetanib [27]. It is interesting to consider why PMS has this effect. PMS func

  STAR★Methods Author Contributions Introduction Hyaluronan, a major constituent of the extracellular matrix (ECM), is produced by hyaluronan synthases (HASs) and degraded by hyaluronidases (HYALs) (Vigetti et al., 2014). Physiologically, hyaluronan exists in a form with a molecular weight of
