  2022-01-24

  

  GSK-3 can function in regulating insulin signaling and glucose metabolism. Inactivation of GSK-3 activity results in dephosphorylation and activation of GS that leads to improved glucose tolerance. However, there are additional mechanisms that can lead to increases in GS activity and improve insulin

  2022-01-24

  

  FOLE was recently approved for use in PN-dependent patients in the United States. However, potential adverse effects of FOLE, including bleeding risk, and effects on the immune system [8], [39], render its use in certain patient populations controversial. Identification of key downstream modulators

  2022-01-21

  

  Given that we planned to isolate the GluN1/GluN3A receptor by immunoaffinity chromatography using a Myc epitope tag on GluN3A, we first checked that the tag does not affect the functional properties of the receptor. To do this we co-transfected HEK-293 cells with DNA encoding WT GluN1 and either WT

  15k, 15j and 14d, were then submitted to metabolic stability studies in human and mouse liver microsomes and permeability test with Caco-2 cells (Table 7). 15k, 15j and 14d all retained excellent permeability (Papp value greater than 15.2 × 10−6 cm/s) and displayed modestly improved metabolic stabil

  Our data suggest that Slc38a5 is important for amino-acid-induced α cell proliferation and expansion of α cell mass following GCGR inhibition, but not for formation and maintenance of α cell mass. This is supported by the finding that Slc38a5−/− mice have normal α cell mass. This is interesting sinc

  2022-01-21

  

  Ghrelin is mostly known for its orexigenic properties, whereas the role of DAG on feeding is controversial with studies claiming an orexigenic, anorexigenic or no effect (Inhoff et al, 2009, Toshinai et al, 2006). One of these studies was that of Toshinai and colleagues, who found a link between the

  Using data from a large population-based cohort study in Finnish males and females, Suchankova et al. [97] looked at a subset of the aforementioned SNPs, namely one SNP on GHSR (rs2948694) and two SNPs on GHRL (rs4684677 and rs696217), in relation to alcohol use disorders identification test (AUDIT)

  2022-01-21

  

  The γ-secretase complex comprises four core subunits: presenilin (PS), nicastrin (NCT), anterior pharynx-defective 1 (Aph1), and presenilin enhancer 2 (Pen2) [7], [8]. PS is the catalytic subunit of γ-secretase, and many PS mutations associated with familial AD result in a high Aβ42/Aβ40 ratio [5].

  2022-01-21

  

  Glucose-induced nuclear translocation of several enzymes, including GK, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), muscle GS, aldolase, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) is a well-known phenomenon. Additional functions have been proposed for these enzymes in the nu

  2022-01-21

  

  The ability to metastasize is the defining character of a cancer and the leading cause for resultant mortality. It is hypothesized that a rare subset of cancer cells, often operationally referred to as “cancer stem cells” (CSCs), are responsible for sustaining cancer metastasis and recurrence [1]. T

  The present study was designed to clarify the distribution and the function of the endothelin receptors in the guinea-pig urinary bladder. We found that endothelin-1 produced a clear tonic contraction via both U 18666A receptor subtypes, the endothelin ETA and ETB receptor, and that sarafotoxin S6c

  The lysine (K)-specific demethylase 4 (KDM4) family is comprised of 4 isoforms, KDM4A to -D, also known as JMJD2A to -D. KDM4A, B, and C encode proteins consisting of a JmjC, a JmjN, two PHD, and two Tudor domains. KDM4D is unique within the KDM4 family in that it has neither PHD nor Tudor domains,

  Histamine H1 and H2 receptors are considered as low affinity receptors (pKi of 4.2 and 4.3 respectively), whereas histamine H3 and H4 receptors as a high affinity receptors (pKi of 8 and 8.2 respectively) (Schreeb et al., 2013). Therefore it might well be that other histamine receptors might be invo

  Conflicting data concerning the involvement of H2R on glycaemia has also arisen. Its antagonism was reported to decrease [35], not affect [36], [37] and increase [38], [39] oxidative phosphorylation levels. In comparison, the clinical experience with antipsychotic drugs generated clearer evidence f
