  Diabetes and obesity: fit or fat; sugar or not: the autophagic verdict Type 2 diabetes and obesity are among the most emerging health problems worldwide. The factors that are responsible for the establishment of diabetes include decreased fibronectin definition production, rise in adiposity, and

  While it is known that circulating LDL-C levels are largely regulated by either controlling the rate of hepatic production of its triglyceride-rich precursor VLDL particle or the rate of LDLR-mediated LDL particle clearance [58], it should be noted that important differences exist between rodents an

  2022-12-02

  

  The 15-LOX hydroxide metabolites are converted to secondary lipid mediators such as lipoxin A4 from 15-HETE and protectin D1/resolvin D1 from 17-HDoHE [45] (Fig. S3). Importantly, all of these secondary lipid mediators have anti-inflammatory and pro-resolving properties [46], [47], [48]. Lipoxin A4

  Here the so-called alkali assay [18] is proposed as a method to be applied directly on the purified recombinant enzyme sharing the same structural and functional features of the wild-type enzyme [19], [20], [21] using its physiological substrate androstenedione. The assay that was already successful

  Serum concentrations of acute phase proteins (APP) and of antioxidants have proved to be clinically useful biomarkers of pyometra in different species, including bitches, cows and mares [[11], [12], [13], [14], [15]]. Acute phase proteins are being increasingly used in both human and veterinary medi

  The association of male gender with increased atherosclerosis has stimulated interest in the role of androgen signalling in this condition. Androgens act (Fig. 2) by direct activation of androgen receptor (AR), a nuclear receptor that acts as a ligand-regulated transcription factor (Gao et al., 2005

  Electron paramagnetic resonance studies of mixtures of Aβ1–40 and Aβ1–42 suggest that interlaced fibrils might also form [40] where Aβ1–40 and Aβ1–42 is found within the same fibril. Considering the Aβ fold rather than the sequence, these observations imply two mechanisms that might lower the total

  2022-12-01

  

  Aldose reductase (ALR2, EC1.1.1.21), the first enzyme in the polyol pathway, is a monomeric oxidoreductase that catalyses the NADPH-dependent reduction of a wide variety of carbonyl compounds, especially glucose. In this metabolism pathway, glucose is firstly reduced to sorbitol catalyzed by ALR2 wi

  Pioneering studies on the immunomodulatory role of adenosine date back to the early ‘70 s of last century (Fig. 1), when the critical role of this nucleoside in shaping the development and the activity of several immune cell populations was first established [[18], [19], [20], [21], [22]]. This then

Of the 18 other jurisdictions, an additional 5 reported that hyper

  Obesity is associated with chronic low-grade Imiquimod resulting from increased M1 macrophage infiltration into adipose tissue, which can subsequently lead to the development of insulin resistance.
