  2022-04-18

  

  Recently, a G-protein-coupled receptor, GPR109a, was identified as a molecular target for niacin. Following this breakthrough, our group initiated a drug discovery program focused on the development of a high affinity ‘flush-free’ niacin-like agonist. Previously, we reported on the identification of

  With an ever-increasing incidence rate of type 2 diabetes and obesity, it is imperative to develop new therapeutic regimes that may provide a benefit both in terms of efficacy and tolerability. The existing portfolio of drugs for the treatment of metabolic disorders, primarily type 2 diabetes and ob

  Petrat et al. could show, that even a low dosage of 10-mg/kg glycine (133 μmol/kg) has a beneficial effect on the small intestine after I/R. In regard to glycine, β-alanine has a clearly higher EC50 to the GlyR and activates the receptor with an efficiency of only 34.6%.16, 17 Therefore, it can be c

  2022-04-18

  

  After brain injury, adenosine levels rapidly increase in the brain [9,10]. As shown in our previous studies, the increased adenosine concentration acts on adenosine A2A receptors (A2ARs), increasing post-traumatic glutamate levels in the brain and exacerbating the severity of injuries [11,12]. Accor

  2022-04-18

  

  GOAT belongs to the super family of membrane-bound O-acyltransferases (MBOATs). It is encoded by the gene MBOAT4 in human. The protein GOAT is highly conserved from zebrafish to human (Yanagi et al., 2018). GOAT is ubiquitously expressed with abundant expression in the stomach and intestine (Sakata

  Based on the previous report that FXR regulated PEPCK indirectly [20], we speculated that FXR may regulate gluconeogenesis by regulating some key transcription factors associated with gluconeogenesis. Finally, by using HS218 as a probe, we found that FXR binds to PGC-1α promoter and directly regulat

  2022-04-18

  

  A frequent complication of SIRS and sepsis is the development of increased airway resistance and lung inflammation [2], [3]. For example, Uhlig et al. [3] demonstrated that rat lungs exposed to endotoxin present increased airway resistance due to constriction of terminal Sulfo-NHS-Biotin [3] Moreov

  Certainly, the immune relevance of Hippo becomes more complicated and divergent in the vertebrates than in Drosophila. In terms of inflammation of mammalians, the stories are diversified (Fig. 2).

  The overall characteristic of RNA profile of Leydig cell is still a mystery. Variation in total RNA will cause subsequent difference in protein expression and phenotypic modulation [16]. In this study, we used a murine nicotine exposure model coupled with next generation RNA sequencing (NGS) and fou

  Cyclopamine, a steroidal alkaloid type secondary metabolite from Veratrum californicum Durand (Melanthiaceae), serves as an anti-Hh constituent blocking the activation of Smo [96,100]. According to previous studies, cyclopamine was shown to inhibit the development of human hepatocellular carcinomas

  Analysis of the thermosensory responses conferred by chimeric proteins suggests that both the ECD and ICD of AFD-rGCs contribute to their thermoresponsive properties. The presence of the GCY-18 or GCY-23 ICD and TMD in chimeric protein combinations generally corresponds to a higher or lower , respec
