  Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder and characterized by the presence of abnormal filamentous protein inclusions in nerve cells of the brain [2]. The neuropathological hallmarks of AD were first reported by Alois Alzheimer and date back to 1907 [3], [4]. These inclusions are for

  Among prostaglandins (PG), PGD2 remained the most elusive species for a long time and was initially regarded as having negligible biological activity [1]. In 1974 its inhibitory effect on platelet aggregation was discovered by Smith et al. [2] and Mills & McFarlain [3], and both pressor and depresso

  Animal models of NASH The human NAS system (see above) is largely reproducible in NAFLD mouse models [37] and, therefore, has been increasingly applied in the preclinical assessment of liver histological responses to test compounds. In general, the NAS system is well suited for this purpose, alth

  Introduction The brain contains abundant fatty acids, which serve as constituents of membranes and as an energy source. In addition, fatty acids and their metabolites contribute to signal transduction between neurons or neurons and glial cells, suggesting that fatty acids play a crucial role in dev

  2022-01-04

  

  The classical genomic effects of GR come about through ligand-bound GR homodimerizing in the nucleus and via direct binding to GREs on the target genes, bringing about transcriptional activation or repression. Examples of target genes up-regulated by activated GR include genes encoding β2-adrenergic

  2022-01-04

  

  Recently, unimolecular, multi-functional peptides that combine GLP-1RA activity with angiopoietin and/or GIP activity have been suggested as new therapeutic agents for glycaemic and weight control. In rodents, dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonists achieve significantly better glucose control and weig

  Though regulation of ghrelin interaction with GHSR has not been described previously, a precedent for a similar regulatory mechanism exists in the form of the interaction between Agouti-Related Protein (AgRP) and melanocortin receptor subtypes MC3R and MC4R (Ollmann, 1997). AgRP is produced by hypot

  The lack of inhibition of K+ efflux in normal red cells reported by Fathallah et al. [16] was attributed by the authors to a lower level (about half) of membrane PKCα activity. In our experiments, single channel recording probably overcame this difficulty because of its molecular detection level. O

  Presenilins in protein trafficking, proteolysis and degradation An obvious explanation for the role of presenilins and γ-secretase in protein trafficking and degradation is that many reported γ-secretase substrates are functionally involved in protein transport. For example, members of the mammal

  Introduction Fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase; EC 3.1.3.11) catalyses the irreversible reaction of hydrolysis of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate to fructose 6-phosphate and inorganic phosphate [1]. Genetic and kinetic studies so far have demonstrated that at least two distinct isoenzymes of FBPase e

  To date, the underlying mechanism of ropivacaine in inducing neurotoxicity remains unclear. Cell death was intimately involved in local-anesthetic neurotoxicity [6,18]. Two classic signaling pathways triggered cell death: the extrinsic pathway and the intrinsic pathway [12]. Our study demonstrated t

More dedicated and individual assays will continue this innovative development, which witnesses the need for collaboration between co
