  2022-01-29

  

  Regulation of pancreatic α and β cell mass has been extensively studied and hotly debated, due to potential therapeutic implications. Early claims of Angptl8 as “betatrophin” and Angptl4 as a regulator of glucagon secretion and α cell proliferation (Yi et al., 2013, Ben-Zvi et al., 2015) have not st

  These various observations indicate that GIP plays an important role in the normal compensatory islet response to high fat feeding. This likely reflects the loss of the combined actions of intra-islet GIP together with intestinally-derived GIP entering the islet vasculature following secretion from

  In summary, our findings provide the evidence and the mechanistic understanding of the protective effects of GIP receptor agonist, D-Ala2GIP, in the MPTP-induced neurotoxicity in mice. The observed protective effects are potentially due to reduced oxidative stress and attenuation of dopamine loss in

  In this study, we demonstrate that the ETS transcription factor ETV5 is involved in the regulation of ghrelin system in response to the altered nutritional state. In the recent multiple GWAS studies, three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of ETV5, rs7647305 (Thorleifsson et al., 2009; Willer e

  Some malignant human tumors Penciclovir also express FPRs and respond to bacterial or endogenous agonists by increased motility and growth. For instance, FPRs expressed by human gastric cancer cells, mediate epithelial–mesenchymal transition, cell proliferation, migration, and resistance to apoptos

  Herein, we describe the design and optimization of fused-ring phenyl propanoic acids as novel GPR40 agonists, leading to the discovery of compound 40a which exhibits excellent pharmacokinetic properties, improved hepatobiliary transporter inhibition, and significant glucose-lowering efficacy during

  Our observation of LPS-induced increase in the sensitivity of cultured endothelium-intact coronary R788 synthesis towards stimulation with selective ETB receptor agonist (S6c) could be explained by activation of TLRs receptors located on the endothelium of rat coronary arteries. However, the possibl

  2022-01-28

  

  Two classes of histones demethylases have thus far been identified: the Jumonji C (JmjC) domain-containing proteins and the amine oxidase domain (AOD)-containing proteins. They have distinct enzymatic mechanisms and substrate specificity. The JmjC domain is conserved through evolution and belongs to

  2022-01-28

  

  Preadipocytes are capable of differentiating into lipid-laden mature adipocytes. Lipid droplets are a prominent morphological feature of mature adipocytes, which is accumulated and maintained during adipocytes differentiation [26]. In this study, rHhip treatment increased lipid accumulation, as well

  2022-01-28

  

  The translation of the HCV genomic RNA is initiated in a different manner, referred to as internal initiation: the 40S subunit directly forms a binary complex with the HCV genomic RNA via an internal RNA sequence called IRES, which is located in the 5′-UTR (Pestova et al., 1998, Tsukiyama-Kohara et

  Aspartame (l-aspartyl l-phenylalanine methylester) is a dipeptide artificial sweetener that is widely used as a non-nutritive sweetener in various food products [1]. The increased market of dietary products and the development of new synthetic sweetening compounds have not been sufficiently explored

However, measurement of nitrate and nitrite levels are routinely used as markers for the activity of NOS and the production of NO radicals [98]. Several studies in human glaucoma patient

  The amyloid precursor protein (APP) is a membrane protein thought to be involved in plasticity, synapse formation and repair, and export of metal ions [68]. The APP present in the brain can be cleaved by three different secretases [73], [74]. Cleavage of APP first by alpha secretase and then gamma-s

  Conformational changes are observed in the LBDs after ligand binding, including partial cleft closure for GluN2A and complete cleft closure for GluN1. For GluN2A, additional conformational rearrangements in the protein and ligand may be required before the ligand can be accommodated within lobe 2. F
