  Introduction The West syndrome or epilepsy with epileptic spasms (ES) is an epileptic encephalopathy in early infancy with probable seizure-related developmental regression. According to the United Kingdom Infantile Spams Study (UKISS), common causes of infantile spasms include hypoxic-ischemic enc

  2022-02-22

  

  Introduction Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a disease with poorly recognized etiology. Currently used antidepressant drugs, which mainly affect synaptic neurotransmitter levels, show full clinical efficacy in only one third of patients (Rush, 2007). Thus it is now generally accepted that the

  In this study, we investigated the contribution of GCK, G6PC, and PCK expression to glycemia in diabetes. We examined liver tissue from 40 obese subjects: 12 had normal glucose tolerance (NGT) and 28 had type 2 diabetes. Materials and methods Results Discussion This study aimed to investig

  2022-02-22

  

  The mechanism underlying the anorectic effect of OXM is well established. It is centrally mediated via GLP-1 receptor activation, confirmed by both pharmacological blockade of the GLP-1 receptor, and using GLP-1 receptor knock-out mice [2], [11], [12]. However, the mechanism by which it increases en

  2022-02-22

  

  The γ-secretase complex comprises four core subunits: presenilin (PS), nicastrin (NCT), anterior pharynx-defective 1 (Aph1), and presenilin enhancer 2 (Pen2) [7], [8]. PS is the catalytic subunit of γ-secretase, and many PS mutations associated with familial AD result in a high Aβ42/Aβ40 ratio [5].

  Over decades, a deeper understanding of terpene synthases has also permitted enzyme engineering for unnatural substrate acceptance. Novel terpenoids have been successfully synthesized from substrate analogues as by-products from mechanistic investigation (Faraldos et al., 2012; Miller, Yu, & Alleman

  2022-02-21

  

  Although angiogenesis is crucial for cerebral ischemic rehabilitation, the mechanism underlying NGF promotion of angiogenesis is not clear. Previous studies showed that angiogenesis can be promoted by FAK, in a breast cancer model [19]. Recent studies showed that FAK phosphorylation participated in

  2022-02-21

  

  Smoking is strongly and consistently associated with periodontitis in the general population. In our study we detected a similar pattern in patients with HIV infection: smokers had a higher DPSI score compared to non-smokers. The exact cause of smoking as a risk factor for periodontitis in the gener

  2022-02-21

  

  A more quantitative view of kinase specificity suggests a continuum of phosphorylation rates for the various substrates of a particular kinase (Figure 4A). Such differences in ‘substrate quality’ can arise from variations in phosphorylation site or docking sequences and may explain why the timing or

  Earlier, we have shown relationship between cytotoxicity and receptor degeneration in Phusion high-fidelity DNA polymerase receptor having specific neurotransmitter receptors (Siddiqui et al., 2008). In the present study, exposure to 4-HNE reduced expression of DA-D2 receptors in PC12 cells which wa

  Endogenous and synthetic ligands of GPR55 There are currently limited commercially available synthetic agonists and antagonists that are specific for GPR55. A large number of studies have investigated the pharmacology of GPR55 4, 23, 25, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, with contradictory findings reporte

  Biochemical assays have provided evidence that prolonged exposure to GPR35 agonists can induce GPR35 internalization [2], [4], [11], [13]. Our finding that neuronal excitability decreased regardless of whether the slices were superfused for a few minutes or incubated for a few hours with GPR35 agoni

  2022-02-21

  

  The rat model was validated with another agonist of GPR109A, acipimox. Acipimox has been shown to induce vasodilatation in man, by a mechanism dependent on the release of vasodilator prostaglandins (Edlund et al., 1990, Pontiroli et al., 1992). Acipimox is a weaker agonist of the GPR109A receptor (L

  BCCA occlusion, followed by reperfusion injury, significantly increased the brain AT1 and AT2 receptor expression in mice. Reports have demonstrated elevation of AT1 receptor expression in the cerebral SB 225002 during ischemia [34,35]. The gene expression of brain AT2 receptor is increased in both

  The primary requirements of an ideal bioprobe for glucose transporter-mediated bioimaging include high specificity, sensitivity as well as low cytotoxicity [18]. According to these concepts, we recently reported the simple amide linked glycoconjugates which containing cyanine fluorophores (Cy3 and C
