  2021-12-27

  

  Continuing studies of endocannabinoid ligands at GPR55 reveal that virodhamine (O-arachidonylethanolamine) and AEA can act as a partial agonists at GPR55; at high micromolar concentrations can inhibit β-arrestin recruitment (Sharir et al., 2012). It is likely that there are allosteric as well as or

• The action of niacin in upregulating cAMP

  2021-12-27

  

  The action of niacin in upregulating cAMP is most likely determined by the milieu of adenylyl cyclase isoforms expressed in macrophages that are responsive to GPR109A activation. Several adenylyl cyclase isoforms, namely AC2, AC4 and AC7, are responsive to the stimulatory action of Gβγ G-protein sub

• GIPR genes were not found

  2021-12-27

  

  GIPR genes were not found in any of the available bird genome as well as the genomes of several species of fish (Tables S3 and S4). The genomic neighborhoods surrounding the GIPR genes in species that have them was generally conserved (see Fig. 8), and like GLP2R, those fish that did have a Gipr gen

  2021-12-27

  

  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

  2021-12-24

  

  Introduction Fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase; EC 3.1.3.11) catalyses the irreversible reaction of hydrolysis of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate to fructose 6-phosphate and inorganic phosphate [1]. Genetic and kinetic studies so far have demonstrated that at least two distinct isoenzymes of FBPase e

  2021-12-24

  

  Pharmacological G9a inhibition resulted in significant reduction of viable BTC cells in a concentration- and cell line–dependent manner. Interestingly, we found a significant correlation between BIX01294-IC50 and UNC0642-IC50 values in our BTC cell model—both inhibitors competitively inhibit H3K9 su

  2021-12-24

  

  The analytical approach for the simultaneous determination of HA and its metabolites is complex. There are commercial kits that allow the determination of HA through ELISA and of its metabolites through radioimmunoassay (RIA) techniques. However, these immunological-based techniques do not allow sim

• G protein coupled receptors GPCRs constitute

  2021-12-24

  

  G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) constitute a large family of 7 trans-membrane-spanning proteins that activate internal signal transduction cascades through binding to different ligands including neurotransmitters, peptides, and lipids [7]. This family of receptors has therapeutic potentials in t

  2021-12-24

  

  Evaluating the plausibility of this selective scenario is challenging because of the uncertainties concerning the biological role of calpain-10 and the significance of its variants with regard to gene function and disease susceptibility. However, from a strictly evolutionary standpoint, our findings

  2021-12-24

  

  Results from the current study are not consistent with those of a previous study (Poock et al., 2015) where there was no differences in ovulation induction response when there was administration of gonadorelin hydrochloride and gonadorelin diacetate salts. These differences in results are likely due

  We tested this hypothesis with two experiments. In the first experiment OVX monkeys implanted with an E2 DS2 (this results in LH levels similar to the level during the follicular phase) were treated with daily injections of letrozole for 1 week and then EB was injected systemically mimicking the pre

  2021-12-24

  

  After brain injury, adenosine levels rapidly increase in the brain [9,10]. As shown in our previous studies, the increased adenosine concentration acts on adenosine A2A receptors (A2ARs), increasing post-traumatic glutamate levels in the brain and exacerbating the severity of injuries [11,12]. Accor

  2021-12-24

  

  Hippocampal-lesioned mice were less able to withhold responding during a DRL-10 requirement (i.e. when the animals had to wait 10s between lever presses), and were thus less efficient than sham operated controls. In contrast, GluR-A−/− mice did not differ from wild-type mice when the DRL requirement

• Different responses in feed intake

  2021-12-24

  

  Different responses in feed intake have been noticed following administration of exogenous GHRL (peripherally or centrally) depending on animal species. In mammals, injection of GHRL stimulates food intake (orexigenic effect) (reviewed in Kaiya et al., 2013b). In contrast, in domestic birds, exogeno
