  Analysis of genomic neighborhoods has helped resolve questions concerning the orthology of receptors for peptides similar to glucagon (Ng et al., 2010, Irwin and Prentice, 2011, Wang et al., 2012, Hwang et al., 2013). Using a diverse array of species with available genome sequence (see Fig. 4) the g

  2021-11-02

  

  Genetic disruption or pharmacologic inhibition of the hepatic glucagon pathway has invariably been shown to increase pancreatic α cell mass. This has been observed in glucagon receptor (GCGR) knockout (Gcgr−/−) mice (Gelling et al., 2003), glucagon knockout mice (Hayashi et al., 2009), prohormone co

  During the course of the development of aminothiazole-derived small molecule GSMs, SGSM-36 (Fig. 1A) was discovered and exhibited good activity for suppressing the production of Aβ42 (Aβ42 IC50=63nM) (Rynearson et al., 2016; Wagner et al., 2014). In addition, SGSM-36 exhibited improved physicochemic

  Psoriasis is an inflammatory skin disease characterized by epidermal hyperplasia; micro-abscesses; neo-angiogenesis; a proinflammatory cytokine environment involving alterations of IL-17A, IL-23, and TNF-α; and activation of and infiltration by macrophages, mast cells, neutrophils, CD11c+ dendritic

  FXR agonists represent an attractive class of drugs for patients with PFIC. Synthetic and semi-synthetic FXR agonists, with higher affinity and potency to activate FXR, have been successfully tested in animal models of cholestasis. In these murine models, the semi-synthetic steroidal FXR ligand obet

  Considering together the conformational, docking and SAR results of this and of previously published papers, a three points pharmacophore model can be developed considering the indispensable residues of SRSRY derived antagonists, namely Arg89, Arg91 and Tyr92. This model is shown in Fig. 10, and req

  Attractively, existing reports suggest that cellular ferroptosis also probably plays vital role in liver fibrosis [[62], [63], [64]]. Carlson BA et al. illuminated that the ferroptosis regulator GPX4 was important for hepatocyte survival and proper liver function [62]. Sun X et al. showed that Nrf2

  Most studies to date have focused on the physiological functions of FPS in plants. As mentioned above, numerous factors affect FPS expression and FPS function. However, FPS enzymatic assays require radiolabeled substrate and thus detailed enzymatic characterizations of FPS, including substrate speci

  We compared the mixotrophic growth of mutant DRHB1486 and the wild-type at different light intensities. The mutant grew at a similar rate as the wild-type at a low light intensity but much more slowly at a high light intensity (Fig. 3). Because the slr2094 mutant was unable to grow under photoautotr

  HCC is one of the most prevalent malignant tumors and a leading cause of cancer-related death, globally [[11], [12], [13]]. Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is closely related to the development of liver diseases [[14], [15], [16], [17]]. More than 350 million people are chronically infected with H

  2021-11-01

  

  PDEs, a group of metallophosphohydrolases, hydrolyze the 3′,5′-cyclic phosphate group on cyclic nucleotides to a 5′-monophosphate, thereby blocking cyclic AMP (cAMP) or cGMP signaling [8,9]. There are different types of PDE isozymes, with different substrate specificities. PDE5 (specific to cGMP) an

  As a measure of ROS formation we measured the extent by which Cu(I) affected the production of hydrogen peroxide and, at the same time, to ensure that there would not be shortage of NADH substrate. Our results show that H2O2 production is increased over time by LPS stimulation but it is not when mic

  Consistent with previous reports of an association between increased accumulation of cAMP and GLP-1 secretion [25, 44, 45], we hypothesized that Oleoyl-LPI may regulate GPR119 activation and secretion of GLP-1 secretion through the cAMP/PKA/CREB pathway. Pharmacological inhibition of PKA by H-89 was
