  Although it is currently unknown why the longer splice variant found in the human has not been found in any other species, similar results have been reported for other receptors, including the Cholera Toxin receptor splice variant ERbeta2 identified in human and primate, but not other species (Sier

  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

  

  Free fatty MRS 2578 receptor 1 (FFAR1, also known as GPR40) belongs to the family of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and was de-orphanized in 2003 as a receptor for medium-to long-chain free fatty acids (FFAs) [9,10]. Mainly expressed in beta cells of pancreatic islets, GPR40 can be activated

  2022-04-06

  

  A main finding of this study was that the impact of exogenous insulin on hippocampal memory and glucose utilization was GluT4-dependent. Although insulin was administered directly to the hippocampus, it is important to point out that such administration does indeed have physiological relevance; that

  Overnight 1-mg dexamethasone suppression testing (DST) of the BclI polymorphism carriers found them to have lower cortisol levels, suggesting an increased sensitivity to GCs with respect to the transrepression effect of cortisol on the POMC gene of the corticotroph pituitary cells [28]. The exact me

  Analysis of genomic neighborhoods has helped resolve questions concerning the orthology of receptors for peptides similar to glucagon (Ng et al., 2010, Irwin and Prentice, 2011, Wang et al., 2012, Hwang et al., 2013). Using a diverse array of species with available genome sequence (see Fig. 4) the g

  Some other neuroinflammatory, neuroendocrine, and neurotrophic pathway but not the ghrelin/GHSR pathway may mediate the CUMS-induced depression- and anxiety-like behaivors. The endogeous ghrelin/GHSR pathway activated by chronic mild stress may plays a role in homeostasis. With respect to the mechan

  2022-04-06

  

  It was recently reported that aged GHSR−/− mice, in addition to showing alterations in meal pattern microstructure, exhibit NPY and AgRP mRNA upregulation in the ARC [56]. After an overnight fast, our animals exhibited a similar pattern of upregulated NPY and AgRP mRNA expression. Given that GHSR1a

  In a series of experiments, the clotrimazole concentration was varied and the NSVDC channel conductances were calculated from Eq. (1) to obtain the dose-response relation (Fig. 3). The data were fitted to the Michaelis–Menten-type activation curve (Eq. (3)) and gave an EC50 value of 14 μM and a dose

  In a mouse model of hyperhomocysteinemia (a risk factor for the development of vascular dysfunction) it has been shown that myoendothelial communication is enhanced due to increased expression of Cx37 and IK1 MAPK Inhibitor Library [], allowing the propagation of endothelial signals to VSMC and ther

  2022-04-06

  

  Gap junctions mediate electrical coupling between cells by conducting direct ionic currents and thereby modulate their electrical activity (Hormuzdi et al., 2004). In the nervous system, electrical coupling organizes network activity by amplifying and synchronizing neuronal firing (Galarreta and Hes

  Introduction Alzheimer's disease (AD) affects ca. 46 million people worldwide [1] and it is expected that the number will double or triple by 2030 or 2050, respectively, while no significant progress has been made in research for early diagnosis and new efficient therapies.

  Chemotherapeutic approaches to glioblastoma, which are highly invasive, are still largely unsuccessful and have only a minimal impact on patients’ survival rate . New agents that target the specific molecular aberrations in the tumors are presently being investigated for their efficacy against this

  ATN-161 (Ac-PHSCN-NH2) is a small peptide antagonist of integrin α5β1, a recently developed anticancer drug that interacts with the N-terminus of the β1 region of integrin α5β1 to lock integrin α5β1 in its non-activated conformation (Wang et al., 2016). The drug has been tested in Phase 2 clinical t
