  Introduction The signaling molecule nitric oxide (NO) plays an essential role in vessel homeostasis by initiating vasodilation [1], [2], [3]. After biosynthesis in endothelial cells, NO diffuses into the subjacent smooth muscle layer to reach its target enzyme, soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC, EC 4

  2021-09-16

  

  The endocytic inhibitors MDC and CPZ and dynamin GTPase blocker (dynamin mutant) have been shown to significantly decrease the intracellular accumulation of cGMP. Moreover, earlier reports suggested that G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCRs) continue to signal by generating cAMP throughout internalizat

  2021-09-16

  

  GSK-3 can function in regulating insulin signaling and glucose metabolism. Inactivation of GSK-3 activity results in dephosphorylation and activation of GS that leads to improved glucose tolerance. However, there are additional mechanisms that can lead to increases in GS activity and improve insulin

  Since KYNA concentrations are increased by aerobic exercise training, we have investigated if it plays a role in peripheral tissue metabolism. Here we show that KYNA regulates adipose tissue energy homeostasis through activation of Gpr35. Activation of this network stimulates the expression of lipid

  As part of our discovery efforts searching for small molecule GPR119 agonists, we analyzed active pharmacophores of known agonists from the literature, and found that -methylsulfonylphenyl and substituted 4-hydroxyl piperidine are common fragments. In our initial efforts, we linked these two fragmen

  In addition to the role of TGR5, the FXR-FGF15/19 axis has been implicated in other aspects of glucose metabolism and metabolic disorders. In humans, both obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are associated with lower plasma FGF19 levels [67,68]. A derivative of the naturally occurring FXR ag

  No other lacZ mutant showed a marked difference in mutation rate between fpg and fpg backgrounds (that is, rates were comparable between HS101 and CSH1191, HS102 and CSH1192, etc.). The number of reversion mutants was much higher in HS1194 than in any other fpg strain. The inclusion of the pTRC99a p

  Growing evidence suggests that the glycine site seems to play a pivotal role in NMDAR-related function. For example, it Radezolid has been demonstrated in a hippocampal slice study that the glycine site sub-serves the spatiotemporal detection of synaptic activity (Li et al., 2009). Moreover, mice wi

  Introduction Histamine was generally accepted as a neurotransmitter in 1984, when histamine was first identified to be located in tuberomamillary nucleus (TM) of the brain (Watanabe et al., 1984). In mammals, histaminergic neurons play an important role in regulating multiple physiological activiti

  ATP is essential for maintaining the ionic balance of the lens (Michael and Bron, 2011). Without sufficient ATP there is an ionic imbalance due to Na+K+ATPase dysfunction. Previous studies have shown that rabbit lenses incubated ex vivo without glucose rapidly lost ATP in their lens epithelium and f

  As our earlier study investigated glut mRNA levels in response to a protein load contained in a meal and the studies that used glucose and insulin injections did not examine GLUT expression, this study sought to investigate the effects of hyperglycaemia and insulin on mRNA levels in the spiny dogfis

  Despite potent biological actions, the native hormone undergoes degradation by the enzyme dipeptidylpeptidase-IV (DPP-IV) [17] and is rapidly cleared from the bloodstream by renal filtration [18]. One such approach to prolong the biological half-life of GIP is through conjugation with a polyethylene

  The most classic case of acquired and relapsing epilepsy is temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), which originates from the hippocampal formation, a structure situated in the mesial temporal lobe (Majores et al., 2007). Our experiment used the prominent pilocarpine-induced TLE model. Systemic administration
