  2022-01-10

  

  Peripheral injury- or disease-induced alterations in synaptic efficacy occur not only at the first synapse made by the primary nociceptive afferents in the spinal dorsal horn but are also operational in several regions processing the sensorimotor as well as emotional-affective components of pain, su

  2022-01-10

  

  Regulation of pancreatic α and β cell mass has been extensively studied and hotly debated, due to potential therapeutic implications. Early claims of Angptl8 as “betatrophin” and Angptl4 as a regulator of glucagon secretion and α cell proliferation (Yi et al., 2013, Ben-Zvi et al., 2015) have not st

  2022-01-10

  

  Polymerisation of HbS initiates the clinical complications of SCD (Bunn and Forget, 1986). The resulting sequelae are multiple and diverse, and their individual impact on pathogenesis is difficult to elucidate. Early changes include altered red cell membrane permeability (Gibson and Ellory, 2002, Le

  2022-01-10

  

  Different from stable transfection, transient expression was also found to yield γ-secretase with robust proteolytic activity []. Co-transfection of all four, but not any three, components of human γ-secretase yielded high expression levels. This observation strongly suggests the co-folding nature o

  2022-01-10

  

  Similar to Rac1, Cdc42, and RhoA, expression of Rnd3 is also increased under hypoxic conditions, involving Hif1α mediated transcriptional activity. Here, downregulation of Rnd3 abolishes hypoxia-induced cell migration via a mechanism involving the chemokine receptor C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 4

  GSK-3 is a critical component of the Wnt signaling pathway. The Wnt/beta-catenin signal transduction pathway is important in normal growth and development and is also frequently dysregulated in cancer and other diseases. The Wnt/beta-catenin pathway is finely tuned by both positive and negative inte

  2022-01-10

  

  Thyroid hormone 3,5,3′-triiodothyronine (T3) and its precursor, thyroxine (T4), are iodinated compounds, which are known to regulate the expression of genes involved in various biological processes, such as development, growth and metabolic control. The iodothyronine deiodinase types I, II and III (

  2022-01-10

  

  Previously, we have shown that rapid action of E2in vitro is mediated through two E2 membrane receptors, GPR30 (GPER1) and the STX-sensitive membrane receptors (Noel et al., 2008; Kenealy et al., 2011a, Kenealy et al., 2011b). This is significantly different from receptors implicated in the positive

  2022-01-07

  

  It is becoming increasingly apparent that membrane lipids play a critical role in modulating and regulating protein function. For example, embedding the homologous SLC1 transporter GltPh in a POPE bilayer allowed a third Na+ binding site to be identified from MD simulations [42], and the binding ene

  Methods Results Discussion Among three main signaling pathways activated by bFGF, the MAPK pathway was found to be involved in the upregulation of GR levels. So far, there have been a few candidates that could connect activated ERK to the upregulation of GR. One likely candidate is the zinc

  Taken together, our results show that, at least in the in vitro cell line model, methylation within the proximal promoter region of GHSR is an important determinant of its expression; however, to determine whether this represents a physiologically and or pathophysiologically relevant event, further

  Newt GHS-R1a proteins expressed in a mammalian cell were able to bind homologous newt ghrelin, heterologous rat and bullfrog ghrelin, and a peptidyl GHS-R1a agonist, GHSRP-6, with inducing intracellular Ca signaling. This indicates that the identified cDNA encodes the ghrelin receptor from a view of

  The observed CORT-induced increase in Cx43 phosphorylation at S368 may also contribute to GJIC disruption. Gap junction channel permeability is modulated through connexin phosphorylation (Moreno and Lau, 2007). Specifically, the phosphorylation of Cx43 on S368 has been previously shown to decrease i

  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
