  2022-04-06

  

  One of pathogenesis of COPD is oxidant/antioxidant imbalance. Indeed, it is well known that chronic tobacco smoking is a major risk factor for the development of COPD, and a defect in the detoxification of reactive species produced by cigarette smoke may predispose smokers to airflow obstruction and

  Materials and methods Results Discussion GPR35 expression has been identified within discrete regions of the nervous system, including the spinal cord [[43], [44], [45], [46], [47], [48]]. Importantly, GPR35 is expressed not only in neurons but also in spinal glial cells [43]. Unfortunately

  2022-04-06

  

  Flaviviruses consist of a nucleocapsid, composed of multiple copies of the capsid protein (C) and the single-stranded, positive-sense RNA genome. The nucleocapsid is surrounded by a lipid bilayer in which two transmembrane proteins are inserted, the envelope glycoprotein E and the membrane protein M

  Little is known about the endocrinological control of reproduction in polychaetes. In vertebrates, gonadal maturation is regulated by the hypothalamo-pituitary-gonadal axis. GnRH, GTHs, and steroid hormones are involved in this axis (see Okubo and Nagahama, 2008). In two polychaete species, Perinere

  2022-04-06

  

  Based on the role of NMDA receptors in initiation and propagation of epileptic seizures and on potentiation of NMDA function by glycine, it has been hypothesized that glycine will have proconvulsant activity (Foster and Kemp, 1989). Indeed, there is some evidence that human epileptogenic foci, remov

  Brief overview of the glutamate system and rationale for targeting the glycine site of NMDARs In the central nervous system (CNS), glutamate is the major excitatory neurotransmitter and works in concert with gamma-aminobutyric 821 (GABA), the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter. Together, GABA a

  To further investigate the molecular mechanisms that underlie glycine's β-cell protective effects through its antioxidative activity in diabetes, we used a H2O2/high glucose-induced apoptosis cell model. Similar effects on ROS generation of high glucose and H2O2 support the in vivo results, suggesti

  Molecular dynamics studies have proved an effective means of characterising transition state pathways between the inward- and outward-facing states, and providing the relative propensity for each state. For example, long-timescale simulations of the membrane-embedded LeuT dimer, totalling ∼21 μs, ha

  2022-04-06

  

  In prostate cancer (PCa), glucose metabolism plays a major role in progression [14]. Androgens can activate the metabolic regulator AMP-activated kinase (AMPK), promoting oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) [15]. Besides, androgens increase GLUT1 [16], which overproduction has been described in the m

  2022-04-06

  

  In conclusion, atorvastatin but not pravastatin impaired glucose utilization in C2C12 cells and glucose tolerance in HFD mice, which may be partly due to the inhibition of GLUT4 translocation in muscle cells. The decrease in the cholesterol level induced by atorvastatin may partly account for the in

  Glucose metabolism and diet Glucokinase is essential for sensing blood glucose levels, thus controls metabolism (Iynedjian, 1993, Iynedjian, 2009, Postic et al., 2001, Agius, 2008). Loss of glucokinase activity in humans and mice leads to diabetes (Printz et al., 1993b, Postic et al., 2001, Agius

  Receptors for glucagon (Gcgr), GLP-1 (Glp1r), and GLP-2 (Glp2r) are G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) belonging to class B-1 (secretin receptor-like) family of GPCRs (Harmar, 2001, Fredriksson et al., 2003). The mammalian Gcgr, Glp1r, and Glp2r genes, together with the erk pathway for the recepto

  Introduction Osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent disease characterized by chronic joint degeneration, including articular cartilage loss, synovitis and osteophyte formation [1], [2], [3], [4], [5].
