  2025-01-17

  

  Curcumin is able to upregulate the protein level of NGF through cannabinoid receptor CB1, where the activation of Akt pathway probably plays an important part in the CB1-mediated signal transmission [9,10]. This finding suggested that the protection of curcumin in spinal motor neurons of SNI rats is

  2025-01-17

  

  There is a growing literature on ABCA2 expression in human biopsies, where it has been described as a potential biomarker of leukemias. In childhood T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, ABCA2 and ABCA3 were expressed at high levels, which upon treatment with methotrexate, vinblastine and doxorubicin

• The role of circulating physiologic concentrations

  2025-01-17

  

  The role of circulating physiologic concentrations of FGF21 in glucose metabolism, however, remains unclear. Circulating FGF21 levels in obese and diabetic rodents, and in patients with type 2 diabetes are significantly higher than those in controls without diabetes [4], [5], [6]. On the other hand,

  2025-01-17

  

  Since natural and recombinant glycoprotein hormones exhibit some differences in their carbohydrate structures, we checked whether this could affect the permissive effect on FSK-induced cyclic AMP response in MLTC-1 cells. Fig. 6 shows that the same sensitizing effect to FSK is observed with pituitar

  A selected set of these new derivatives was then used for functional assays at the human A1AR showing, as expected, an antagonist profile with IC50 values at nanomolar level. The same molecules showed also to be efficacious as nanomolar antagonists in a functional assay aimed at analyzing their abil

  2025-01-17

  

  The theoretical calculations of ADME parameters (molecular weight (MW), log P, topological polar surface are (tPSA), number of hydrogen donors (nON) and acceptors (nOHNH), and volume) and DLS are presented in along with the violations of Lipinski’s rule. According to these data, all compounds (–) c

  2025-01-17

  

  Until now, five muscarinic receptor (M1-5) genes have been cloned, but, M1-3 receptors are functionally recognized in the lungs. Smooth muscle contraction is mainly mediated by M3. M2 may also participate in the contraction via Gi protein which leads to a decrease in cAMP. On the other hand, M2 is l

  Acknowledgements Introduction Resistant hypertension (RH), is defined as blood pressure (BP) > 140/90 mm Hg despite three full doses antihypertensive drugs including a diuretic. Controlled hypertensive patients taking four GW3965 or more of antihypertensives are also considered resistant (Calh

  A weakness of our technique is that during the early post-operative period without the scaffold of an enteric channel patients can be at risk for traumatic or difficult catheterization, with 3 of 6 requiring a visit. This appeared to be offset by having skilled and educated housestaff capable of rec

  The role of DHT in early teleost embryogenesis is not entirely clear or established, however additional studies that treat fish embryos to DHT or to specific srd5a inhibitors at critical stages of development (i.e. prior to sex differentiation) will shed light on the early functions of this androgen

  2025-01-17

  

  ASK1 belongs to the family of MAPKKK. ASK1-mediated apoptosis is involved in the pathogenesis of several diseases such as I/R injury, infectious diseases and neurodegenerative disorders [33], [34], [35]. ASK1 can be activated through different mechanisms. One mechanism is that oxidative stress direc

  2025-01-17

  

  PD research involves the use of many animal models, which can be categorized into two main types: toxic models—among which the two most widely used are the classical 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) model in rats and the 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) model in mice and monkeys—and gen

  The accumulation of oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) is one of the many causes of the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis (Virmani et al., 2002; Pirillo et al., 2013; Sun et al., 2016; Huang et al., 2016; Tabas, 2010). oxLDL-induced apoptosis of macrophages contributes to the forma

  Apelin/APJ triggers a variety of cellular signaling pathways (Fig. 1). Recent studies from our laboratory showed that apelin-13 induces vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) proliferation by the upregulation of Cyclin D1 expression, which is involved in an ERK-dependent activation of Jagged-1/Notch3 si
