  2021-09-07

  

  In NAFLD models, the “first hit” is liver fat accumulation, which causes insulin resistance, whereas the interplay of inflammatory cytokines, which causes inflammation, acts as the representative “second hit” [9]. However, recently, the “multiple hit” hypothesis has taken into consideration that mul

  2021-09-07

  

  Hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs), including HIF-1α, HIF-1β, HIF-2α and HIF-3α, are important endogenous signaling proteins that contribute to the cellular response to hypoxia. Among these proteins, HIF-1α is involved in many pathophysiological processes, including inflammation, tumor growth and meta

  2021-09-07

  

  Cyclopamine, a steroidal alkaloid type secondary metabolite from Veratrum californicum Durand (Melanthiaceae), serves as an anti-Hh constituent blocking the activation of Smo [96,100]. According to previous studies, cyclopamine was shown to inhibit the development of human hepatocellular carcinomas

  In an attempt to further optimize interactions in the lipophilic P4 pocket, we next prepared compounds – () which possessed the preferred stereochemistry at P4, but with R-groups of varying size and shape. In addition to providing important structural information for maximizing potency, these compou

  2021-09-07

  

  Recently, anti-tumor or antiviral strategies using RNAi for both gene silencing and innate-receptor activation were designed; one mechanism of these strategies is activating the intracellular retinoic acid–inducible gene I protein (RIG-I). 5′-Triphosphate RNA (3p-small interfering RNA [siRNA]) is th

  2021-09-07

  

  It is important to note that the GC-C expression is retained in colon tumours, and therefore GC-C expression can be used as a marker to diagnose metastatic colon cancer [42]. However, expression of uroguanylin and guanylin is often lost in colorectal cancer progression [43]. Therefore, the anti-prol

  2021-09-07

  

  In diseased blood vessels, increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), such as peroxynitrite, superoxide, and hydrogen peroxide, have been found [[53], [54], [55]]. Peroxynitrite was suggested to alter the redox state of sGC [53] while hydrogen peroxide interfered with the action of NO bu

  2021-09-07

  

  Chronic exposure of cells to cytotoxic drugs can result in the selection of multiple phenotypic and genetic changes. Thus, the use of MCF7/VP cells, which were selected for resistance to VP-16, was potentially problematic. However, a thorough characterization of MCF7/VP cells demonstrated that they

  2021-09-07

  

  The observed glucose intolerance and elevated fasting blood glucose in this study is in consonance with earlier study (Ferris and Kahn, 2012). These have been the common features of GC exposure and are not unexpected. Previous researches that reported IR during GC exposure have shown controversy con

  It appears that different agonists for GPR55 activate different signalling pathways [25]. GPR55 activation through LPI has been shown to trigger ERK 1/2 phosphorylation 22, 23, 25, 33. Conversely, endogenous cannabinoid compounds AEA and 2-AG have been shown to have no effect on ERK 1/2 signalling 2

  The hypothesis that genes involved in type 2 diabetes evolved under changing selective pressures and may carry the signature of natural selection motivated us to describe patterns of sequence variation at CAPN10 and GPR35 in human populations. An initial population genetics study reported an unusual

  Introduction Non-alcoholic hepatic steatosis is characterized by the presence of steatosis in hepatocytes [1], which leads to the development of fatty liver [2]. It is strongly associated with obesity, insulin resistance, and type II diabetes [3]. They are major risk factors of non-alcoholic hepati

  FSH and LH, are glycoprotein dimers that are comprised of two subunits, a common α-subunit (αGSU) and a distinct β-subunit (FSHβ or LHβ, respectively), which determines the biological specificity of the gonadotropins (Ciccone and Kaiser, 2009, Gharib et al., 1990). The Apatinib of the gonadotropin

  In a previous study (Möykkynen et al., 2003), we reported that ethanol lengthens the time needed for the AMPA receptors to recovery from desensitization in isolated hippocampal neurons. Here, we did not observe any effect of ethanol on recovery from desensitization in recombinant homomeric GluR-D re

  The Farnesoid X receptor (FXR): identification and ligands The Farnesoid X receptor (FXR) belongs to a family of proteins called Nuclear Receptors (NRs). NRs are a class of ligand-activated transcription factors, which transactivate networks of target genes, thereby mediating a wide range of phys
