  That MSCs release IL-6 upon LPS stimulation or other stressful stimuli like H2O2 [43] is well-documented [44]. However, there are conflicting reports on the potential effects of this cytokine in stroke. Some studies have found that the external administration of IL-6 in ischemic animal models leads

  2022-05-26

  

  Here we studied the effects of BZ flurazepam (FZ) at high doses in acute and chronic settings of tolerance and dependence in GluR-A−/− mice (Zamanillo et al., 1999). We used measurements in which the phenomenon of “learning while intoxicated” should play only a minor role in order to find out the si

  2022-05-26

  

  Studies examining cerebral glucose metabolism in MDD using 18 F-fluorodeoxyglucose in positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) showed altered regional glucose metabolism in MDD (Dunn et al., 2002, Kennedy et al., 2001, Kimbrell et al., 2002, Saxena et al., 2001). In a recent meta-analysis by Su and co

  2022-05-26

  

  The effect of GCK-NES mutations on enzyme kinetics and protein stability might account for the hyperglycaemia that characterizes MODY2 patients, since reduced GCK activity would increase the threshold for glucose stimulated insulin release in beta-cells [31,37,49]. However, a more in depth functiona

  2022-05-26

  

  A significant contribution to the discovery of novel Hh inhibitors is given by natural compounds [11,17,22,31,32]. The first Hh inhibitor ever discovered has been Cyclopamine, a steroidal alkaloid isolated from plants of the Veratrum species [13,33]. Subsequently, many natural compounds belonging to

  In the second part of this study, we investigated the influence of GH on the beta lactamase inhibitor of the ghrelin receptor, GHSR-1a, at the mRNA and peptide levels in cultured whole follicles. Regulation of the expression of GHSR-1a has a key role in the actions of ghrelin in target tissues. Usi

  Many neutral and acidophilic β-galactosidases have been purified from microorganisms [14], while only a few alkalophilic β-galactosidases have been reported [19]. An alkalophilic β-galactosidase, BGal_375, was obtained and researched for the characterization of its hydrolytic activity. BGal_375 show

  2022-05-26

  

  Natural products are a diverse and interesting source for the discovery of new lead structures (Newman and Cragg, 2016). After a successful era of natural product research, many pharmaceutical companies stopped their investment in natural product-driven drug discovery in the 1990s. The reason behind

  2022-05-26

  

  According to Laplace’s law, loss of myogenic response would increase wall stress and tension in downstream vessels and subsequently induce endothelial dysfunction and arterial stiffness [36]. Indeed, we found that arteries from FPR-1 KO mice presented with a leftward shift in the stress-strain curve

  2022-05-26

  

  Species specificity of small molecular GPR40 agonists have been reported by Takeda scientist. In the binding pocket of TM5, a Leu186 in human GPR40/FFA1 is replaced with Phe in rat, resulting in dramatic inter-species GPR40 activity discrepancy in certain scaffolds of small molecular GPR40 agonists.

  The IN gene of the HIV isolate from Papua (CRF01_AE isolate) contains genetic polymorphisms (Fig. 1A) that encode for variant amino acids in the IN protein, based on the Stanford HIVdb mutation interpretation database (Fig. 1B). These variations slightly changed the three-dimensional structure of IN

  Introduction Epigenetic mechanisms modulate heritable phenotypic changes that are not dictated by changes in DNA sequences. The link between epigenetic modifications and cancer development has been established [1], [2]. Histone modifications represent an important class of epigenetic mechanisms tha

  In the present study, we focused on a role of the C-terminal segment in GCAP2 using two chimeric proteins, in which the C-terminal segment of GCAP2 was either replaced by the corresponding sequence of recoverin (chimera GR) or transferred into recoverin (chimera RG). We have monitored Ca-dependent c
