  2022-01-24

  

  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

  2022-01-24

  

  The fact that GSK-3 recognition of its substrate involves pre-phosphorylation supports the rational for using synthetic phosphorylated peptides as substrate competitive inhibitors [57]. Phosphorylated peptides derived from the N-terminal pseudosubstrate sequence of GSK-3β were very weak inhibitors o

  Introduction High dose niacin, or nicotinic acid, has been used as an athero-protective drug for more than 50 years (Carlson, 2005, Offermanns, 2006). When taken in pharmacological doses (>1g/day), the nicotinic Leonurine hydrochloride form of niacin modulates plasma lipid profiles including dec

  A linker length of 4 and 5 atoms was found to be optimal ( and ) compared to the only weakly active compounds with longer linkers ( and ) or the inactive compounds with shorter linker chains (–). In a next step incorporation of hetero-atoms in the linker was explored (). An amide linker as in and di

  2022-01-21

  

  Several studies have indicated MUC1 to be an effective marker for identifying various malignant tumors, such as gastric, breast, pancreatic, ovarian, gallbladder, uterus, lung, and prostate cancers, as well as for prognostic outcomes [16], [17], [18], [19], [20], [21], [22], [23].

  The SNPs of candidate genes may exert their effect on associated traits through changing of gene expression (Bonafe et al., 2003, Wyszynska-Koko et al., 2006). In agreement, GHSR SNPs were significantly associated with upregulation of this gene in the pituitary gland of GG/GG chickens. The GHRL/GHSR

  In this review we will highlight how the functional impact of GABA receptors activation in thalamic neurons far exceeds the traditional “shunting” effect and shapes the whole thalamic network excitability. We will show how GABA released during either tonic or burst firing of GABAergic thalamic neuro

  2022-01-21

  

  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.

  Moreover, studies on subcellular localization of FBPase in carp heart and smooth muscle revealed nuclear localization of the enzyme. Previously, we have unequivocally demonstrated the presence of FBPase in the nuclei of mammalian cardiomyocytes (Gizak and Dzugaj, 2003) and myocytes (Gizak et al., 20

  Discussion The aim of the present study was to extend the list of ASIC ligands and to check if histamine receptors ligands can also affect ASICs. The novel finding is that not only histamine but also thioperamide, 1-metylhistamine and Nα-methylhistamine are active ASIC1a potentiators, while other

  2022-01-21

  

  The molecular mechanism of gliotransmitter release is not fully understood until now, and previous studies have emphasized that the elevation of [Ca2+]i triggers vesicular Necrostatin 2 of glutamate. Parpura et al. reported that the essential role of Ca2+ release from internal stores in glutamate r

  Recently, it was found that hypoxia results in the phosphorylation of β-catenin at Y654 in a Src-dependent manner (Xi et al., 2013). All β-catenin phosphorylated at this residue was found complexed with Hif1α and it was demonstrated that this β-catenin phosphorylation was required for Src to promote

  Recently, an increasing number of studies have highlighted the crucial role of nociceptive factors produced by microglia under neuropathic pain conditions (Mika et al., 2013; Popiolek-Barczyk and Mika, 2016). iNOS is an important pronociceptive factor that is strictly expressed by microglia/macropha

  GLP-1 is known to be expressed in a subset of taste bud cells and has been shown to co-localize with GPR120 in the circumvallate papillae [22]. Local GLP-1 regulates taste preference for sucrose [54]. Analogous to intestinal mediation of GLP-1 by GPR120, Martin et al.[22] report induction of GLP-1 s
