  Introduction Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a disease with poorly recognized etiology. Currently used antidepressant drugs, which mainly affect synaptic neurotransmitter levels, show full clinical efficacy in only one third of patients (Rush, 2007). Thus it is now generally accepted that the

  The biological actions of ghrelin are mainly due to its interaction with GHSR-1a (Howard et al., 1996). The pharmacological properties of D-Lys3-GHRP-6, a selective antagonist of GHSR-1a, have been extensively studied (Beck et al., 2004, Benso et al., 2007, Sibilia et al., 2006). To study the recept

  Ghrelin interactions with the opioid system The endogenous opioid system is an important regulator of appetite and metabolism (Bodnar, 2017, Nogueiras et al., 2012). In fact, several pharmacological studies have demonstrated that agonists of the three opioid receptors (mu, kappa, and delta) incre

  Results Discussion γ-secretase-mediated proteolysis of integral membrane proteins is required for diverse biological processes (Lal and Caplan, 2011). One γ-secretase target of particular interest is Notch, as recent work has shown Notch activity to be increased in obesity and associated metab

  Of note, the intracellular egg compartment exhibiting SA-β-gal activity also exhibits lipofuscin auto-fluorescence (Fig. 6B), and it is co-stained with the lipid-specific dye SBB (Supplemental Fig. 5). On the one hand, these findings reflect the fact that the pool of yolk protein contains lipoprotei

  Thus, this work aims to evaluate the effect of tannic pitavastatin receptor on β-galactosidase activity, by observing the variations in the molecular interaction kinetic parameters ( and ). Besides, these data were correlated with the modifications that the tannin caused to the enzyme’s secondary s

  The presence of FBP2 in nuclei seems to accompany the cells' potential to divide as it has been shown that during differentiation of the satellite cells (myogenic progenitor cells) the amount of nuclear FBP2 decreases and in differentiated myotubes, the localisation of FBP2 is restricted to cytoplas

  Potential platelet-related mechanisms that might explain an augmented risk of MI in dabigatran treated patients have been investigated: Enhanced platelet reactivity is known to be associated with the risk of MI (Mangiacapra et al., 2018) and catalytically active thrombin is a potent stimulus to indu

  2022-04-29

  

  Following nerve injury, Shh expression is upregulated in neuronal cell bodies of the facial and sciatic nerves. Additionally, Shh appears to be required for normal regeneration in vivo, and promotes motor neuron survival in vitro (Martinez et al., 2015; Akazawa and Kohsaka, 2007). Based on these obs

  On the other hand, the single-stranded RNA flavivirus hepatitis C virus (HCV), causes type C hepatitis, which often leads to liver cirrhosis, hepatic failure and hepatocellular carcinoma. Its genome of about 9.6kb encodes the structural proteins C, E1, E2, and the nonstructural proteins NS2, NS3, NS

  Introduction Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a small (50–80 nm in size) enveloped RNA virus belonging to the Hepacivirus genus of the Flaviviridae family [1]. The HCV particle consists of a nucleocapsid, which contains the positive single-stranded RNA genome covered by a host cell-derived lipid envelope

  Importantly, each conformational state in the SRP–SR dimer provides a distinct point of regulation at which these GTPases can directly sense and respond to different biological cues in the pathway. For example, assembly of a stable ‘closed’ complex between SRP and SR is intrinsically very slow (kon

  The expression of COX-2 has been correlated with the density of amyloid plaque [65]. A study reported that IMX was effective in suppressing the expression of iNOS and IL-6, but not COX-2, in LPS-stimulated BV2 microglial cells [52]. In this study, IMX did not alter upregulation of COX-2 induced by H
