  2022-10-09

  

  In mammals, a major physiological role of the GHSR gene appears to be in regulating food intake and energy homeostasis by partaking in the neuronal mechanisms involving neuropeptide Y and agouti-related protein (Nakazato et al., 2001, Chen et al., 2017). In our study, determination of the abundance

  2022-10-09

  

  While ghrelin's role in addictive behaviors has been most extensively explored with alcohol, ghrelin has also been implicated in biobehavioral substrates of other drugs of abuse. For example, preclinical experiments suggest that GHS-R1a blockade may improve nicotine [155,156], opioids [[157], [158],

  2022-10-09

  

  Initially, we carried out gap-FRAP experiments using the two-photon configuration of the confocal microscope. A SR101-positive astrocyte was targeted and a 5 × 5 μm square area was exposed to a laser illumination (5 flashes of 5 s each during 25 s). This procedure resulted in a bleaching of this ast

  By using pharmacological treatment with CBX or transgenic animals lacking the two major astroglial Cxs, the Double KO mouse, we demonstrated that the gap-FRAP technique was able to detect the total inhibition of GJC with a reduction of about 39% and 38% compared to control, respectively. The residua

  2022-10-08

  

  DAMPs are endogenous danger signals that can initiate and perpetuate a noninfectious enolase during cell death [23]. HMGB1 is a well-studied nuclear DAMP in various types of regulated necrosis and has been implicated in the pathogenesis of infection and sterile inflammation. Our current data indicat

  2022-10-08

  

  The progression of HIV varies from patient to patient, with some who progress slowly and others who progress much faster. However, CD4+ and CD8+ cell counts are intimately linked in those that are able to suppress the HIV infection (Walker et al., 1986; Saez-Aninon et al., 2007). Depletion of these

  TLRs were originally identified as pathogen-associated molecular pattern recognition receptors that recognized exogenous ligands in response to infection [31]. In cirrhotic mice or patients, the gastrointestinal tract produces and absorbs considerable bacterial LPS with increased permeability of the

  The H2R antagonist cimetidine (Tagamet™) became the first billion-dollar drug in the 1980s for the treatment of peptic ulcer disease. Other H2R antagonists include ranitidine, famotidine, nizatidine, and zolantidine, the latter showing good BBB penetration with a steady-state brain/blood ratio of 1.

  The HDC knockout mouse as a pathophysiological model of TS The implication of a hypomorphic allele of the Hdc gene as a rare cause of TS (Ercan-Sencicek et al., 2010) created a rare opportunity for the generation of a pathophysiologically grounded model of the disorder. Modeling pathophysiology o

  RS testing has been extensively validated in patients with early stage, ER+, HER2− patients. TAILORx, a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the role of adjuvant chemotherapy by RS, found no recurrence or survival benefit to the addition of chemotherapy to endocrine therapy in patients with inter

  G protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) are another group of kinases whose limited substrate repertoire is associated with an extensive binding interface. GRKs phosphorylate activated G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) at multiple sites, promoting binding of arrestin proteins to mediate receptor

  Introduction Soluble guanylyl cyclase (GC-1) maintains vascular function through the NO/GC-1/cGMP pathway [1,2] by catalyzing the conversion of GTP into cGMP (Fig. 1). The GC-1 heme prosthetic group binds NO with picomolar affinity, resulting in a 100- to 200-fold increase in catalytic activity.

  In addition to genomics, transcriptomics and proteomics tools, metabolomics approaches are now used in order to optimize glycoprotein production in CHO cell lines. Recent advances in metabolite quantification have allowed identification of cellular phenotypes under specific experimental conditions (
