  2024-07-01

  

  Osteoblasts have been thought to be the major cell type that expresses RANKL (Suda et al., 1999) which is a ligand for osteoprotegerin (OPG) and which functions as a key factor for osteoclast differentiation and activation. Recently, Nakashima and his colleagues (Nakashima et al., 2011) demonstrated

  A combination of factors might, however, account for the low rate of success of drug development for neuropsychiatric disorders. First, in most neuropsychiatric disorders, the symptomatology is heterogeneous and the neurobiology remains poorly understood, making therapeutic targets difficult to iden

  2024-07-01

  

  Introduction The lysosomal storage disorder Gaucher disease (Mendelian Inheritance in Man, OMIM #230800) results from the recessively inherited deficiency of lysosomal glucocerebrosidase (GCase, EC 3.2.1.45), caused by mutations in the gene GBA1 (MIM# 606463) located on chromosome 1q21. The enzymat

• IGF is an anabolic growth factor that induces hypertrophy

  2024-07-01

  

  IGF1 is an anabolic growth factor that induces hypertrophy and blocks atrophy in skeletal muscle by activating the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway (Egerman and Glass, 2014). In addition to its anabolic and anti-catabolic effects, IGF1 stimulates fatty ABT (FA) uptake and glucose metabolism (Clemmons, 2012).

  2024-07-01

  

  Although the LB2 domains of mGlu receptors have not been shown to form an extensive interface during activation, they do draw closer to each other, as demonstrated in crystal structures (Kunishima et al., 2000, Muto et al., 2007, Tsuchiya et al., 2002) and by FRET analysis (Doumazane et al., 2013, V

  Furthermore, low-affinity sites that share no structural homology with the aforementioned sites have been described in the transmembrane domain. It has been discovered that, in α1βγ2 receptors, potentiation of GABA-activated currents by high concentrations of diazepam is biphasic, with a high- and a

  Our observation that squalestatin caused only small differences in the production of Aβ40 and Aβ42 was in contrast to prior reports of the effects of other cholesterol synthesis inhibitors. This may be due to using squalestatin, a more specific cholesterol synthesis inhibitor that does not affect is

  Introduction Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a complex neurological disorder characterized by a progressive dementia resulting from synapse failure (Selkoe, 2002, Tanzi, 2005). The amyloid hypothesis maintains that the pivotal event in AD is the production of amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides following the prote

  Introduction Our ability to see our surrounding relies directly on the integrity of the anatomical structures composing our eyes. One of these key components is the cornea, consisting of the outer layer of the eye. Its transparency is crucial for light transmission to the retina and allows proper

  2024-06-28

  

  The lack of specific PARP inhibitors prevents our understanding of how TIPARP or perhaps other PARPs affect AHR signaling. Current inhibitors are based on NAM and were designed to inhibit PARP1 [59]. Many of them do not effectively inhibit mono-ADP-ribosyltransferases and their ability to inhibit TI

  Introduction Clinical manifestations of Alzheimer's disease (AD) are mainly characterized by progressive intellectual deterioration, memory impairment, cognitive impairment, and psychiatric symptoms. The pathogenesis of AD remains unclear, mainly containing genetic factors, neurotransmitter disor

  In previous research, we determined that blocking mAC during heparin-induced capacitation result in sperm having a lesser oxygen consumption, suggesting that cAMP produced by this enzyme would be linked to mitochondrial activity and, therefore, with the regulation of sperm metabolism (Fernández and

  Further evidence for ACh/GABA cotransmission had also been observed in the cortex. Extensive axonal arborization from cholinergic BF neurons exists throughout the cortical layers, allowing direct observation of cholinergic synaptic terminals. One study in the visual cortex of cat examined immunolabe
