  2022-02-12

  

  The two competitive bivalent GlxI inhibitors polyBHG2-62 (=1nM) and polyBHG2-54 (=0.3nM) () were designed based on the transition-state analog -(-bromophenyl--hydroxycarbamoyl) glutathione (BHG) by an examination of the X-ray crystal structure of human GlxI in complex with one CHG at each active sit

  2022-02-12

  

  In insects, structural cuticular proteins (CPs) play important roles in determining the diverse physical properties of the cuticle, depending on developmental stages, as well as different body regions, as a result of interactions with other CPs and the structural biopolymer chitin [4]. Many studies

  2022-02-12

  

  Introduction l-Glutamate is a major excitatory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system (CNS) that contributes not only to fast synaptic neurotransmission, but also to complex physiological processes like memory, learning, plasticity, and neuronal cell death [30], [81]. Glutamate is

  2022-02-12

  

  GCK-MODY is the most common form of MODY diabetes in many populations (Chevre et al., 1998; Massa et al., 2001; Barrio et al., 2002; Estalella et al., 2007; Pruhova et al., 2010; Capuano et al., 2012; Giuffrida et al., 2017). However, data about GCK-MODY among North African populations are very rare

  Consistent with recent independent studies, we confirm that the GCG-induced increase in oxygen consumption is only partially blunted in Fgf21−/− mice [32], implicating additional GCGR-dependent mechanisms contributing to the acute GCG-dependent enhancement of energy expenditure. Notably, glucagon ad

  Presenilins and apoptosis Apoptosis, also known as programmed cell death, has a critically important role in tissue homeostasis, development, normal ageing and the pathogenesis of several diseases, including cancer and neurological disorders. The presenilins were first linked to apoptosis when ce

  Results Discussion In this study, we investigated the role of galanin and GAL2 receptors on anxiety-like behaviours mediated by the dorsal hippocampus of rats. We showed that locally administered galanin (1 nmol) decreased exploration of the open arms in the EPM, suggesting an anxiogenic-like

  2022-02-12

  

  The diverse biochemistry of zinc means that, in many cases, more than one factor (or pathway) is at play. Whilst catalytic Zn2+ sites are now typically well-understood, the recognition that Zn2+ levels regulate the function of many cell types has led to vigorous interest in the fate and role of mobi

  Erythropoiesis involves the proliferation and differentiation of hematopoietic stem Mechlorethamine HCl to mature RBCs. This process is a tightly-regulated to adjust rates of RBC production based on physiologic need. Fas-mediated apoptosis is one mechanism that controls erythropoiesis. The role of

  Acknowledgements Introduction Type 2 diabetes is a progressive metabolic disorder which is characterised by chronic hyperglycaemia due to relative insulin deficiency, insulin resistance and increased hepatic glucose production [1]. The metabolism of glucose by glycolysis increases the ATP:ADP

  As previously discussed, even though glucose is the major fuel of the brain, neuronal cells may use alternative fuels such as ketone bodies in metabolically challenging situations in which glucose availability is limited [6]. Ketogenesis takes place mainly in the liver, although astrocytes can also

  While NR1 upregulation in the spinal cord is known to contribute to pathological pain [7], [22] and furthermore, NR1 expression in the spinal cord has been shown to be reduced by continuous administration of the GlyT1-inhibitor ALX5407 [23], little is known about possible expressional changes of NR1

  Experiments conducted on the human parasite Leishmania major has shown that specific parasitic antigens are involved in steering the immune responses to “protective” as opposed to “disease” state (Reiner et al., 1993; Reiner and Locksley, 1995; and Sjölander et al., 1998) and that antigenic composit
