  2022-06-14

  

  The endocannabinoid system (ECS) consists of cannabinoid (CB)1 and CB2 receptors, their endogenous ligands anandamide and 2-arachidonylglycerol, and the synthesizing and degrading enzymes for these ligands. Cannabinoids and the ECS are involved in the regulation of GI motility in physiological and p

  Introduction Nicotinic Reserpine hydrochloride (niacin, NA) has been used in the treatment of dislipidemia and cardiovascular disease for almost 60years (Offermanns, 2006). Large clinical studies showed that niacin alone or in combination with LDL-lowering drugs improved cardiovascular outcomes (C

  2022-06-14

  

  Recent research reveals that human alkyladenine DNA glycosylase (hAAG) is an important protein enzyme which can specifically recognize and excise a variety of alkylated purines and deoxyinosine from DNA [12]. hAAG plays pivotal roles in maintaining genomic integrity, and it is involved in SQ 22536

  In this study, our result suggests that exogenous GR agonist DEX and GR inhibitor RU486 can affect dopaminergic neurotransmitters in the brain. Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP), an endogenous neuropeptide, can regulate the synthesis and release of catecholamine. McArthur et

  2022-06-14

  

  Glucagon was described as an insulin secretagogue as early as 1965 (Samols et al., 1965). Our studies extend these findings by demonstrating that this is a direct effect mediated by distinct receptors in the mouse pancreas. Previous experiments on isolated β CAL-101 clearly show that glucagon is ca

  2022-06-14

  

  The mechanism underlying the anorectic effect of OXM is well established. It is centrally mediated via GLP-1 receptor activation, confirmed by both pharmacological blockade of the GLP-1 receptor, and using GLP-1 receptor knock-out mice [2], [11], [12]. However, the mechanism by which it increases en

  Preclinical development of GIP agonists Since the action of DPP IV is not limited to GIP, the most specific pharmacological approach for GIP would be modification at the N-terminus to disrupt DPP IV-mediated degradation. Indeed, it has been shown that GIP analogues with N-terminal modifications a

• Irpex lacteus was well known

  2022-06-14

  

  Irpex lacteus was well known as an edible and medicinal mushroom. It had been reported that I. lacteus could produce a thermostable α-galactosidase [17]. The reported α-galactosidase from I. lacteus, however, seemed to be unsuitable for the practical application due to its poor hydrolysis ability to

  2022-06-14

  

  LXRs are physiological regulators of cholesterol and lipid metabolism and influence glucose metabolism. In addition, they have been shown to repress transcription of certain pro-inflammatory genes (Jakobsson et al., 2012; Ogawa et al., 2005; Terasaka et al., 2005). Thus, LXRs can either activate or

  Immunohistochemistry using anti-FFAR1 antibodies revealed immunoreactivity for FFAR1 in association with the cell membrane of the hepatocytes (Figure 2). However, the anti-FFAR2 antibody was not suitable for immunohistochemistry under the tested conditions (data not shown). Fatty liver is an import

  Similar to in vitro data, in vivo studies have also revealed modulation of TLR4-induced inflammatory responses by AEA. The proposed AEA reuptake inhibitor AM404 has been shown to attenuate TLR4-induced increases in plasma levels of IL-6 and IL-1β, the latter effect mediated by CB1 receptor activatio

  Introduction Currently, HIV-1 infection treatment guidelines adopted in USA and EU provide for the simultaneous administration of three antiretroviral drugs (HAART “Highly Active Anti-Retroviral Therapy”) in severely compromised patients [[1], [2], [3]]. Coupling at least two different mechanisms

  2022-06-13

  

  HOs can be found in both plants and animals and they are evolutionarily conserved proteins [8]. There are two HO isoenzymes: inducible heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and constitutive heme oxygenase-2 (HO-2) encoded by different genes [9,10]. Biosynthesis of a stress-inducible HO-1 can be triggered by a var

  Here, we show that CT229 recruits multiple Rab GTPases and Rab effector proteins to the inclusion; the CT229 Inc protein redirects and intercepts host clathrin-coated vesicles (CCVs). CT229 is required for recruitment of transferrin (Tfn) positive CCV’s from the recycling pathway to the periphery of
