  2022-09-09

  

  Glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3) is currently considered to be a multifunctional serine/threonine kinase involved in a wide spectrum of cellular processes such as glycogen metabolism, cell proliferation, neuronal function, oncogenesis or embryonic development (for recent reviews see: Rayasam et al.

  In the gastrointestinal (GI) tract CART expression has been described in the enteric nervous system in rats (Ekblad et al., 2003), pigs (Wierup et al., 2007), sheep (Arciszewski et al., 2009), guinea pigs (Ellis and Mawe, 2003) and humans (Kasacka et al., 2012).

  Ghrelin and 4-HQN receptor balance To characterize the physiological role of ghrelin in energy homeostasis, ghsr−/− and ghrelin−/− mice were generated [33], [36], [41], [47]. Although ghrelin regulates the amplitude of episodic GH release, ghsr−/− mice were not dwarfs, and in fact appear identica

  2022-09-09

  

  G-quadruplex DNA structures may exist in either positive or negative strand of a promoter to regulate gene expression. The positive strand of the HOXC10 promoter is overall C-rich in the 1000 bp upstream of the TSS (36.6% of C versus 24.1% of G) and contains many C-runs; thus, G-quadruplex structure

  OCA has recently been approved for the treatment of patients with PBC and is under study for diseases such as NASH, PSC and biliary atresia [30], [49]. Up to now, the beneficial effects of OCA have been related to its anti-cholestatic, anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic properties. We have here rep

  In the current study, we report the properties of P. anserina mutants carrying mutations in a gene encoding the bi-functional enzyme 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase (PFK-2/FBPase-2). This enzyme catalyzes two opposite reactions (Pilkis et al., 1995, Rider et al., 2004): synthesi

  To our knowledge, the putative role of ET-1 and ETB-R in oligodendroglioma progression was not documented so far. Using primary cultures of grade B oligodendroglial tumor cells, we have here assessed the functionality of ETB-R expression in these tumors. Confocal microscopy analysis confirmed the st

  Another level of complexity within the TGF-ß/SMAD and Hippo/YAP/TAZ pathway crosstalks was recently uncovered. TGF-ß induces robust TAZ, but not YAP, protein expression in both mesenchymal and epithelial PTC209 HBr through a SMAD3-independent, p38/MAPK-dependent mechanism that triggers myocardin-re

  We demonstrated that bilirubin, the product of heme metabolism by HO-1, exerted a potent suppression of NADPH oxidase activity (Fig. 2B). Different from the down-regulation of NADPH oxidase subunit by HO-1 induction in macrophages [24], the protein levels of the NADPH oxidase subunits in vascular en
