  2022-06-01

  

  In mammals, a major physiological role of the GHSR gene appears to be in regulating food intake and energy homeostasis by partaking in the neuronal mechanisms involving neuropeptide Y and agouti-related protein (Nakazato et al., 2001, Chen et al., 2017). In our study, determination of the abundance

  2022-06-01

  

  One important discovery of our study is the identification of a pharmacological mechanism for the macrolide antibiotic erythromycin (EM) in promoting joint health. EM is a commonly used antibiotic that directly binds bacterial ribosomes to inhibit protein synthesis [66]. Although EM-like macrolide t

  Introduction As a fundamental metal-dependent hydrolytic enzyme, inorganic pyrophosphatase (PPase) exhibits a specific catalytic ability, in which one molecule of inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi) can be transformed into two orthophosphate (Pi) ions [1,2]. The process of transformation is extremely e

  FFAs concentration–response curves for increasing intracellular calcium and receptor phosphorylation showed a difference of ≈1 order of magnitude indicating a relatively large receptor reserve, which is expected for a transfected model, and that high receptor occupancy is necessary to induce recepto

  Sensitivity to EphB3 TKI was also demonstrated in a colon cancer cell line, COLO 205, with high expression of EphB3. We found not only exogenous but also endogenous EphB3 protein was expressed in the COLO 205 sigma receptor after transient transfection of pCMV6-AC-GFP/EphB3, and both were demonstra

  2022-06-01

  

  Current studies have identified five orphan G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) that can be activated by free fatty acids (FFAs), GPR40, GPR41, GPR43, GPR84, and GPR120. Short-chain fatty acids (FAs) are specific agonists of GPR41 and GPR43 [21] and middle-chain FAs agonize GPR84 [22]. Long-chain FAs

  Introduction In addition to glucose, which is the foremost stimulator of insulin secretion in beta-cells, other nutrients such as free fatty acids (also called non-esterified fatty acids, NEFA) contribute to glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS). Glucose triggers the processes leading to in

  On the other hand, G9a/GLP could also alter neuronal function without directly altering the transcription level of particular plasticity-related protein: the consolidation of early-LTP to late-LTP, as well as the reversal of mGluR-LTD by G9a/GLP inhibition required PKMζ translation and its downstrea

  Given the major differences between the molecular regulation of the genes encoding HO-1 (HMOX1) in mice and humans, it is not appropriate to utilize mouse models for mechanistic analyses of human HMOX1[35]. In addition, it has been reported that drugs, such as statins, as well as stressors and the r

  Previous studies have established that phosphorylation of GC-B is required for activation of GC-B. Conversion of all six chemically determined serine and threonine phosphorylation sites in GC-B to alanines produced a properly folded enzyme that retained GC activity under synthetic detergent activati

  Carbon monoxide, another key product from the breakdown of heme by HO-1, also plays an important role in the vasculature. Like NO, CO is endogenously derived from the endothelium [68] and can weakly activate sGC by binding to its heme moiety [69]. CO was found to have vasodepressor activity in rats

  Materials and methods Results Discussion Recently, we characterized the interaction of the PH domains of various Lbc family RhoGEFs with the activated small GTPase, RhoA, and demonstrated that this could serve as a positive feedback mechanism for robust activation of RhoA (Medina et al., 20

  Importantly, each conformational state in the SRP–SR dimer provides a distinct point of regulation at which these GTPases can directly sense and respond to different biological cues in the pathway. For example, assembly of a stable ‘closed’ complex between SRP and SR is intrinsically very slow (kon

  Importantly, other aspects of platelet function (aggregation, spreading, in vitro and in vivo thrombosis) important for haemostasis and thrombosis were unaltered in Ral DKO platelets and mice. Beyond haemostasis and thrombosis however, platelets have been implicated in numerous pathophysiological pr
