  2022-04-01

  

  PKC does not, however, directly stimulate secretion by initiating calcium influx into the cell [51]. Work from multiple groups measuring calcium currents has shown that PMA alone or coupled with glucose does not modulate intracellular calcium influx [34], [51], [52], [53]. Instead of contributing to

  2022-03-31

  

  Curcumin is a major yellow pigment in turmeric ground rhizome of Curcuma longa Linn, which is used widely as a spice and coloring agent in several foods such as curry, mustard and potato chips as well as cosmetics and drugs (Okada et al., 2001, Joe et al., 2004). Curcumin represents a class of anti-

  2022-03-31

  

  To date, no studies have demonstrated any effect of obesity or inflammation on GPR109A expression in adipose tissue. Our findings demonstrate that HFD-induced obesity decreases adipose tissue GPR109A gene expression. Contradictory to our findings in adipose tissue in vivo, Digby et al. report that e

  Lysophosphatidylinositol (LPI) LPI is a subspecies of lysophospholipid consisting of inositol as its head group, one glycerol molecule and one acyl chain (Piñeiro and Falasca, 2012). The biosynthesis of this lipid starts from Phosphatidylinositol (PI) and is catalysed by the enzymes phospholipase

  2022-03-31

  

  The first described synthetic FFA1 active agonist, GW9508 (4- [(3-phenoxyphenyl)methyl]amino benzenepropanoic acid), was immediately shown to also activate FFA4, although with some 100-fold lower potency [38]. Therefore, in the initial absence of FFA4-selective synthetic agonist ligands, GW9508 was

  2022-03-31

  

  Acute in vivo experiments were performed in normoglycemic 129SVE mice to confirm GPR119 activation and corresponding myosin inhibitor control. GIP release was utilized as a biomarker for target receptor engagement and plasma GIP levels were measured 45min after oral dosing (). Both 3 and 10mg/kg pro

  2022-03-31

  

  Following activation, it is necessary for a subset of activated effector T cells to survive as long-lived memory T cells. Metabolically, this transition is dependent upon the ability of the cell to downregulate aerobic glycolysis and transition back to a more oxidative phenotype. In fact, enhanceme

  One possible pathway summarizing the overall action involves NMDA receptor activation – Ca2+ influx – protein kinase A (PKA) activation – ERK phosphorylation and subsequent synaptic plasticity (Thomas and Huganir, 2004). A few studies have also shown modulation of synaptic glutamate transporters in

  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

  MAPK are involved in a large variety of solid and hematolgical neoplasms and, indeed, several components of the MAPK network have already been proposed as targets in cancer therapy, such as p38, JNK, ERK1/2, MEK1/2, RAF, RAS, DUSP1 and ERK5 [11], [12]. Among them, alteration of the RAS-RAF-MEK1/2-ER

  The Cx family of integral membrane proteins [13] are key components of the Gap Junction channels that provide GJIC, which is indispensable in the preservation of tissue integrity and homeostasis in multicellular organisms. Gap Junction channels form a conduit for exchange of ions (Ca2+), second mess

  GSIs were shown to effectively decrease Aβ levels at doses close to or higher than their IC50 values in cell culture models. Surprisingly, they also slightly increase Aβ levels at low doses, (significantly below the IC50) also known as “Aβ rise”, due to various mechanisms including inhibition of cel

  In general substrates that undergo regulated intramembrane proteolysis are initially cleaved in the extracellular domain by sheddases such as TACE (TNFα converting enzyme) or ADAM (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain)/α-secretase, or by aspartyl proteases, such as BACE/β-secretase, before cle

  2022-03-30

  

  Until recently the mechanism of how GSMs shifted γ-secretase cleavage was poorly understood. Today, building on the sequential cleavage model developed by Ihara and colleagues [14], there is evidence that GSMs act as processivity enhancers, and iGSMs as inhibitors of processivity [120].
