  2022-04-14

  

  Introduction The West syndrome or epilepsy with epileptic spasms (ES) is an epileptic encephalopathy in early infancy with probable seizure-related developmental regression. According to the United Kingdom Infantile Spams Study (UKISS), common causes of infantile spasms include hypoxic-ischemic enc

  2022-04-14

  

  The bFGF-induced upregulation of both GR and MR levels observed in our study raises a question regarding whether the simultaneous augmentation of the two receptors has a physiological and/or medical significance. It has been suggested that MR stimulates intracellular signaling pathways to minimize s

  2022-04-14

  

  Introduction Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) is a hormone secreted postprandially from enteroendocrine K cells in response to ingestion of either fat [1], protein [2], or carbohydrates [3]. GIP is primarily known for its glucose-dependent insulinotropic actions mediated via the G

  Ghrelin interactions with the opioid system The endogenous opioid system is an important regulator of appetite and metabolism (Bodnar, 2017, Nogueiras et al., 2012). In fact, several pharmacological studies have demonstrated that agonists of the three opioid receptors (mu, kappa, and delta) incre

  2022-04-13

  

  We have previously designed an azobenzene-based molecule, Razo, which could switch the conformations of G-quadruplex structures by photoregulation. 12, 13, 14, 15 However, it lacks selectivity to different G-quadruplexes. Therefore, we want to find a way to modify this molecule so that it could be u

• Activation of FXR or TGR

  2022-04-13

  

  Activation of FXR or TGR5 inhibits inflammatory response via repressing NF-κB activity [1]. FXR is not expressed or expressed at a very low level in macrophages [45] (data not shown), but highly expressed in hepatocytes. In contrast, TGR5 is expressed in macrophages but not in hepatocytes. Our data

• Apoptosis via Fas FasL system

  2022-04-13

  

  Apoptosis via Fas/FasL system has been evidenced to play a role in the pathogenesis of many diseases [26], [27], [28], [29], [30], [31], [32], [33], [34]. Along with these, Fas/FasL system has an important role in progressive renal disease and organ rejection in renal, cardiac and liver transplanta

  Obesity tips to a systematic failure in the overall metabolic regulation; it is a major global health problem and is linked to several metabolic diseases such as (T2D) (see ), (NAFLD), and cardiovascular disorders. The prevalence of such metabolic disorders has increased dramatically worldwide ,

  2022-04-13

  

  Mechanism of HH pathway activation in NSCLC Despite the role of the HH pathway in basal cell carcinoma and medulloblastoma, it has been postulated that epithelial tumors do not demonstrate cell autonomous HH ligand activity. The main evidence comes from the study by Yauch et al showing no correla

  2022-04-13

  

  It has been reported that expression of murine haspin is found only in post-meiotic spermatids and that overexpression of murine haspin in HEK-293 cells leads to reduced cell proliferation. Therefore, it was suggested that haspin functions to bring about cystamine arrest in haploid germ cells (Tana

  2022-04-12

  

  Toxoplasma gondii is an exceptionally tractable apicomplexan parasite that expresses a limited yet representative subset of apicomplexan cyclase orthologs, making it an ideal model for investigating cyclic nucleotide signaling in Apicomplexa. Of the five putative nucleotide cyclases, only TgACα1 and

  Introduction The Ras superfamily of small GTPases is composed of more than 150 protein members involved in a wide variety of biological processes, such as proliferation, differentiation, cytoskeletal organization, and protein trafficking [1]. The Ras superfamily proteins act as molecular switches

  Thus synthesized thienopyrimidine derivatives were evaluated in vitro for GPR119 agonistic activity, and the results are summarized in , , . First, we fixed the 4-methylsulfonylphenyl substituent at the R position on the thienopyrimidine ring, and derivatized at the R position. As shown in , and sho

  2022-04-12

  

  GPR119 is a member of the G protein-coupled receptor family, and is highly expressed in pancreatic β-cells and intestinal endocrine cells. It has been proposed that GPR119 agonists modulate glucose homeostasis by indirectly stimulating glucose-dependent insulin release through enhancing pancreatic c
