  Our aim was to gain insight into mechanisms that underlie the contribution of thrombospondin-1 (TSP1) to progression of CKD. TSP1 is the most-studied member of the thrombospondin family of matricellular proteins. Previous studies have demonstrated that pharmacological suppression or genetic depletio

  In addition to redox stress, nutritional intake plays a key role in modulating energy metabolism. DIO animal models are commonly used to study altered metabolic changes consequential to fat storage within various fat pads. In general, diets containing >40% high-fat lard, milk, and butter promote exc

  Experiments conducted on the human parasite Leishmania major has shown that specific parasitic antigens are involved in steering the immune responses to “protective” as opposed to “disease” state (Reiner et al., 1993; Reiner and Locksley, 1995; and Sjölander et al., 1998) and that antigenic composit

  Further explorations at the ortho- and meta-positions of the phenyl in the tail proceeded on the basis of the preliminary results. First, we investigated the fluorine group at the meta- (13p) and ortho-positions (13q) of the phenyl group, with both compounds being slightly less potent than 13o. Surp

  Introduction Glucose is the major carbon source in most organisms. Cancer AZD8931 mg in particular require a steady source of energy to maintain growth and proliferation, and preferentially use glycolysis for their energy supply even under aerobic conditions. Glucose uptake in mammals is mainly m

  The schematic diagram of the antagonistic interactions of Zn2+ and neurosteroids (NSs) at GABA-A receptors is summarized in Fig. 7. Neurosteroids exhibit powerful seizure protective effects against experimental seizures probably through the potentiation of synaptic and extrasynaptic GABA-A receptor-

  We reveal that the four well known vertebrate families of KAT enzymes (GNAT, MYST, P300/CBP, Basal transcription factor/nuclear receptor co-activator) seem to be conserved (Karmodiya et al., 2014; Roth et al., 2001; Sheikh & Akhtar, 2018) in the mangrove rivulus, together with Camello, a potential n

  So, studies are currently in progress to design drugs which could inhibit the main crosstalk components between interacting key pathways (Fig. 1). Wnt The Wnt family consists of 19 highly conserved glycoproteins serving as ligands which bind to the G-protein coupled 7-pass transmembrane receptor

  The therapeutic potential of acetate has been advocated by research on neurodegenerative disorders such as Canavan's disease (Arun et al., 2010, Mathew et al., 2005), where oral acetate improved motor function in a genetic model of the disorder, and in studies of behavioural phenotypes associated wi

  2021-10-13

  

  Metallothioneins (MTs) that are intracellular proteins responsible for the maintenance of metal homeostasis are involved in arsenic toxicity (Kita et al., 2006). Four major MT isoforms have been reported so far, MT1, MT2A, MT3 and MT4. The synthesis of MT1 and MT2A isoforms in mammal cells can be in

  Niacin () () has long been used for the treatment of lipid disorders and for the prevention of cardiovascular disease, the leading cause of death in the U.S., as a result of its ability to raise high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels. Recent mechanistic investigations have shown that niacin may exe

  The plasma levels of glucose and amino acids at day likely represent the function in utero since the blood was collected within 2h after birth. To elucidate the roles of intestinal transporters as determinants of plasma levels of glucose and amino acids, we analyzed the correlation between the expre

  The main aim of our study was to identify whether glucokinase and Irs2 were required for beta cell replication induced by short-term HF diet feeding. Glucokinase plays a critical role in regulating blood glucose levels by catalysing the rate-limiting biochemical reaction of glycolysis [26,27]. In pa

  In mammals, the primary cilium is considered a hub for signal transduction. The cilium has previous been associated with transduction of several pathways including Wnt (Corbit et al., 2008, McDermott et al., 2010, Tran et al., 2014), PDGF (Clement et al., 2013, Schneider et al., 2010, Schneider et a

  Initially, we carried out gap-FRAP experiments using the two-photon configuration of the confocal microscope. A SR101-positive astrocyte was targeted and a 5 × 5 μm square area was exposed to a laser illumination (5 flashes of 5 s each during 25 s). This procedure resulted in a bleaching of this ast
