  2022-07-22

  

  In diseased blood vessels, increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), such as peroxynitrite, superoxide, and hydrogen peroxide, have been found [[53], [54], [55]]. Peroxynitrite was suggested to alter the redox state of sGC [53] while hydrogen peroxide interfered with the action of NO bu

  2022-07-22

  

  Introduction Initial studies of cancer metabolism in the early 1920s showed that the cancer phenotype for glucose metabolism is unique, with increased abilities to take up glucose and produce lactate, even under aerobic conditions [1]. This pathway, called aerobic glycolysis or the Warburg effect

  Introduction Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is one of the most common complications associated with pregnancy [1]. Approximately 7.6% of pregnancies in the United States are complicated by GDM [2,3], which significantly increases the mother's risk of developing type 2 diabetes (T2D) later in l

  In 2003, three independent groups identified GPR109A (HM74A) and GPR109B (HM74), two GPCRs, as the receptors for niacin., , GPR109A, which is present in all species, is a high affinity receptor for niacin., GPR109B, which is only present in human and chimpanzee, is a low affinity receptor for niac

  2022-07-21

  

  In this study, three potential Otx-2 Results were found in the promoter region of the sheep GnRH gene: −1786 bp to −1770 bp, −825 bp to −819 bp, and − 529 bp to −523 bp. Combined with the results of the double-luciferase assay, it could be inferred that the binding site of Otx-2 in the core promoter

  2022-07-21

  

  Introduction Methylglyoxal (MG) is a highly reactive dicarbonyl metabolite formed in cells mainly by the spontaneous degradation of triose phosphates, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate, and dihydroxyacetone phosphate (Rabbani and Thornalley, 2012). It exists in a wide range of organisms, including proto

  2022-07-21

  

  Glucose uptake, a critical metabolic control point in glycolysis, is mediated by the GLUT (SLC2) family of integral membrane transporters (Mueckler and Thorens, 2013). GLUT1 (SLC2A1), one of the most well-studied members of the SLC2 family, exhibits a wide tissue distribution; cell surface expressio

  2022-07-21

  

  It was previously proposed that glucagon acts in the liver, in which a signal is produced and relayed to the β(1,3)-d-glucan synthase via vagal nerves [8], [36], [37]. The concept that the liver is the primary target site was supported by the studies reporting that the glucagon receptor is localized

  2022-07-21

  

  The widespread involvement of HH/GLI in human malignancies has initiated a remarkable effort to identify selective HPIs. As shown in Table 2.1, most of these small molecule inhibitors target the essential effector protein SMO, which should lead to pathway abrogation by eventually decreasing the GLIA

  2022-07-21

  

  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

  2022-07-21

  

  The recent identification of new mechanisms for triggering ferroptosis, by compounds termed FIN56 and FINO2, provided new insights into regulation of ferroptosis. FINO2 acts through a distinct mechanism: it promotes lipid peroxidation by oxidizing iron and indirectly inactivating GPX4 [180]. FIN56 w

  2022-07-21

  

  Following these discoveries, the term ferroptosis was coined in 2012 [25], to describe this iron-dependent, non-apoptotic form cell death induced by erastin and RSL3. This discovery was accompanied by the development of the first small molecule ferroptosis inhibitor, termed ferrostatin-1, and the de

  2022-07-20

  

  Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2/neu, also known as CerbB-2, or ERBB-2) is a proto-oncogene located on chromosome 17q21, which encodes a transmembrane protein with tyrosine kinase activity, and belongs to the HER receptor family (EGFR, named also HER1, HER3, and HER4) [6]. HER2 is invo

  2022-07-19

  

  Lipid-sensing GPCRs as therapeutic targets G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) comprise a family of cell-surface receptors that respond to various extracellular stimuli such as light, odorants, neurotransmitters and hormones, and trigger a cascade of intracellular signaling. There are approximately

  2022-07-19

  

  Since viral infections result in polarization of naïve CD4 T cells into both Th1 and Tfh subsets (although to variable degrees depending on the nature of the pathogen), a lot of effort has been devolved to the question of whether type I IFNs play a role in CD4+ T cell polarization.
