  2021-10-08

  

  The ketone body receptor HCA2 is most likely not active under normal conditions, since local levels and plasma levels of ketone bodies such as β-HB are too low to activate the receptor. However, overnight fasting or prolonged starvation results in plasma levels of the ketone body in the millimolar r

  Recently, we suggested that KYNA – an endogenous GPR35 agonist could be produced in a human cornea since we showed the presence of the enzymes that catalyze the synthesis of KYNA – kynurenine aminotransferases I-III in corneal epithelium, stroma and endothelium (). Therefore, these findings provided

  2021-10-08

  

  Excessive extracellular glutamate may induce excitotoxic neuronal damage in disorders of the CNS (Schwartz et al., 2003). EAATs are considered to contribute to prevention of excitotoxicity by glutamate uptake. Our data revealed that expression levels of membrane EAAT proteins in astrocytes are much

  2021-10-08

  

  Shikonin represents naphtoquinonic compound isolated from the Chinese plant Lithospermum erythrorhizon[20]. Shikonin treatment inhibits AKT and ERK signaling pathways and induces apoptosis through FOXO transcription factors and mitochondrial pathway [21], [22]. Recent results suggest inhibition of l

  2021-10-08

  

  A majority of investigations of the GCK-PFK-2/FBPase-2 interaction have taken place within cells. Immunofluorescence studies in several fixed cell lines indicate that GCK colocalizes with PFK-2/FBPase-2 in the cytoplasm following overexpression [[68], [69], [70]]. Live cell imaging conducted on MPI-

  Our present data together with other studies have shown that the communication of stroma and cancer cells via ECM-cell interaction led to the primary activation of FAK [41]. Here we propose a model depicting an important role of ADAM12-L in the regulation of ESCC invasion and metastasis. ADAM12-L ov

  While histone modifications can alter inter-nucleosomal interactions that govern the compaction state of a chromatin fiber (Francis et al., 2004, Kalashnikova et al., 2013, Lu et al., 2008), the potential impact of histone modifications on higher-order chromosome organization beyond chromatin-fiber

  In conclusion, we demonstrate, for the first time, that histamine plays a key role in regulating astrocyte function and gliotransmitter release, and we now must re-consider the roles of monoamine neurotransmitters in brain function in the context of astrocyte signalling. Further in vivo studies will

  Acknowledgments Introduction Liver disease is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Death from any type of acute or chronic liver injury results when sufficient healthy hepatic parenchyma cannot be regenerated to perform vital liver-specific functions. Although the regenerative capabil

  The vessel wall protein collagen, which becomes exposed to circulating platelets after vascular injuries, is a very strong platelet agonist. It stimulates all relevant platelet activation steps predominantly via the GPVI/FcRγ-chain receptor complex through an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation

  2021-10-06

  

  A localization of GK to both a cytoplasmic and perinuclear area of normal rat pancreatic beta-cells was reported in 1996 (Noma et al., 1996), which changed on acute hyperglycemia to a more diffuse staining throughout the cytoplasm. The localization of GK within the nucleus was first reported by Mura

  Murine models of sickle disease have been valuable tools in the study of human SCD pathogenesis [15], [16], and will continue to be central to development of novel approaches to disease treatment. The SAD mouse model of sickle disease is particularly remarkable for its erythrocyte dehydration phenot

  In the 2003, a first in vitro indication of modulation of FXR expression in CRC showed that FXR expression was absent in undifferentiated colon carcinoma cell line SW480, while it was progressively increasing along with the degree of cell differentiation in Caco2 and HT29 cells, and its transcriptio
