  2021-10-29

  

  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

  It should be noted that the applied steered unfolding of the i-motif and G-quadruplex satisfies the conditions of Jarzynski inequality for computations of the free energy change. [41] However, in order to reproduce the free energy with an adequate quality a number of nonequilibrium unfolding transit

  Compound 10 and several additional FPR1 antagonists identified here specifically blocked fMLF-induced responses mediated via FPR1 in FPR1-HL60 98014 and human neutrophils, but not responses mediated via FPR2 or FPR3 (in human neutrophils and transfected HL60 cells) or Fpr1 (murine neutrophils and t

  2021-10-29

  

  The PI3K/AKT pathway is known to affect cell cycle, survival, and apoptosis (Yu et al., 2006; Park et al., 2008). After phosphorylation by AKT, the cytoplasmic apoptotic protein bad (bcl-xl/bcl-2) cannot be transferred to the mitochondria and dissociates from the inhibition protein bcl-2 and bcl-xl,

  2021-10-28

  

  Cdc42 is also linked to the adherens junction via IQGAP1, however, it appears to have an opposite effect on junctional stability. When Cdc42 is inactive, IQGAP1 binds to β-catenin, displacing α-catenin, resulting in the loss of α-catenin-linked SC-514 filaments from the adherens junction and reduce

• The ketone body receptor HCA

  2021-10-28

  

  The ketone body receptor HCA2 is most likely not active under normal conditions, since local levels and plasma levels of ketone bodies such as β-HB are too low to activate the receptor. However, overnight fasting or prolonged starvation results in plasma levels of the ketone body in the millimolar r

  Method Results Discussion There were two major sources of fluorescent signals of NADH in the mouse retina. One was a product derived from glutamate and the other was the elevation of intrinsic NADH. In the present study, we observed significant contamination from intrinsic NADH in “the oute

  However, the GPR40 R211H polymorphism was reported to affect the variation of insulin secretory capacity in other ethnic groups. The allele frequency of H211 in Japanese was 78.4%.102, 103 By comparing clinical and metabolic parameters among Japanese men, Ogawa et al. found that histidine homozygote

  2021-10-28

  

  Although encoded by a single gene, GR displays considerable heterogeneity through the combined effects of alternative mRNA splicing, alternative translation initiation, and complex post-translational modification. Differential expression of the various GR isoforms may contribute to tissue-specific f

  2021-10-28

  

  Due to the versatility of the ghrelin system and its multiple functions, dysregulation in some of the components of the ghrelin system, such as ghrelin, GOAT, and GHSR, might lead to pathogenesis of many endocrine-related diseases, including obesity, short stature, cancer, inflammatory, and cardiova

  In a series of experiments, the clotrimazole concentration was varied and the NSVDC channel conductances were calculated from Eq. (1) to obtain the dose-response relation (Fig. 3). The data were fitted to the Michaelis–Menten-type activation curve (Eq. (3)) and gave an EC50 value of 14 μM and a dose

  Several compounds have been described in the literature as inhibitors of the sGC. Among them, methylene blue and LY83583 () are not direct sGC inhibitors, but rather block cGMP formation by generating superoxide anion radicals that deactivate NO. Despite their extensive use in plethora of research s

  We hypothesized that modulating redox stress by altering endogenous antioxidant content (overexpression of catalase) and/or via dietary intervention will improve energy metabolism, adipose tissue function, and overall glucose and lipid homeostasis. To better understand the interplay between redox re

  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
