  It has been known for some time that an oral salt load given to mammals induces a much greater natriuresis than the intravenous administration of an equivalent amount of saline (Carey et al., 1976, Singer et al., 1998). In addition, oral administration of salt to rats has been reported to augmented

• Lipid sensing GPCRs as therapeutic targets

  2022-07-01

  

  Lipid-sensing GPCRs as therapeutic targets G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) comprise a family of cell-surface receptors that respond to various extracellular stimuli such as light, odorants, neurotransmitters and hormones, and trigger a cascade of intracellular signaling. There are approximately

  2022-07-01

  

  The GPR55 receptor is also emerging as an important therapeutic target. GPR55−/− mice possess no overt phenotype, but were protected in models of inflammatory and neuropathic pain (Staton et al., 2008). Staton et al. (2008) reported that no GPR55 mRNA could be detected by RT-PCR in the animals. Also

  2022-07-01

  

  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 (

  Crystal structure of CD81-LEL have revealed the head sub-domain to be implicated in binding to HCV (Kitadokoro et al., 2001). In a study using African green monkey CD81, T163A, F186 L, E188K and D196E mutations disrupted HCV E2 binding (Higginbottom et al., 2000). In our docking studies, T163 and D1

  2022-07-01

  

  Introduction l-Glutamate is a major excitatory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system (CNS) that contributes not only to fast synaptic neurotransmission, but also to complex physiological processes like memory, learning, plasticity, and neuronal cell death [30], [81]. Glutamate is

  2022-07-01

  

  Transmembrane AMPA receptor regulatory proteins (TARPs) are a relatively newly discovered protein family. Prototypic TARP, stargazin, was found by a spontaneous mutation in ataxic stargazer mouse line as a homologous protein to γ1 calcium channel subunit (Letts et al., 1998). The role of stargazin i

  2022-07-01

  

  AKR1D1 is very highly expressed in human liver and based upon the observations outlined above, with respect to other steroid hormone pre-receptor metabolising enzymes, it is entirely plausible that AKR1D1 could represent a critical regulatory step in the control of metabolic phenotype within the liv

  2022-07-01

  

  It is possible that regulation of adiposity and glucose homeostasis by GIP are in part mediated by altering leptin levels and/or leptin signaling. However, we are unaware of reports that support this mechanism of action of GIP. In addition, leptin levels in GIP receptor knockout mice [12], [52] and

• MicroRNAs miRNAs are endogenous small RNA

  2022-06-30

  

  MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenous small RNA molecules 20–25 nucleotides in length; they regulate multiple genes by binding to target mRNAs, thereby controlling the stability and translation of protein coding mRNAs (Esteller, 2011, Guo et al., 2010). It has been established that PF-06463922 of the i

  To date, three other allosteric binding sites of HIV-1 IN have also been reported. In the work of Wielens and co-workers [33], a pocket formed by the residues Tyr83, Trp108, Asn184, Ile200 and Val201 was found, which can be bound by small molecules. In the work by Rhodes et al. [34], a small-molecul

  A pyrimidine class of compounds is of enormous interest within anti-HIV drug discovery process for several decades, as pyrimidine based DABOs class [7], DAPYs class [8] are well known as NNRTIs as well as NRTIs. However, the overall role of a pyrimidine class of heterocycles in anti-HIV drug discove

  Literature review suggests a strong presence of central histaminergic transmission in the Picrotoxin synthesis areas targeted by caffeine to induce its behavioral actions. Interestingly, it is reported that caffeine administration increases the histamine neuronal activation and release of histamine

  Priming CGP-41251 can also generate a binding site for some protein-interaction domains and adaptor proteins that recruit kinases to phosphorylate more distal sites [36]. Well-characterized phosphoprotein-interacting domains include pTyr-binding SH2 domains present in many nonreceptor TyrKs and the
