  2022-01-18

  

  Ghrelin receptors in non-mammals are reportedly more “complicated/complex and diverse” than in mammals, having additional paralogs and splice variants (Kaiya et al., 2014). Several teleost fish GHS-Rs have been identified; however, functional characterization has been conducted in only a few (see, K

  2022-01-18

  

  In order to test whether the enhanced hyperpolarization in the presence of increasing amounts of extracellular Ca2+ could be due to an ionophore effect of NS309, red cell uptake of 45Ca and partition of 45Ca into a water/n-octanol phase +/−100 μM NS309 were determined. However, no indication of iono

  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-

  2022-01-18

  

  Autophagy plays a multifaceted role in regulating both the quality and quantity of protein (e.g., protein half-life and activity) and organelles (e.g., mitochondrial number and function), thus determining cell fate [15]. The induction of autophagy has been generally considered a programmed cell surv

  2022-01-18

  

  Introduction The term “autophagy” was coined by Christian de Duve in 1963 to describe the process of removing and degrading intracellular components such as unused proteins and damaged organelles through lysosomes [1,2]. Autophagy has been divided into three main types, namely, macroautophagy, mi

  2022-01-18

  

  The membrane metalloendopeptidase (MME) gene is located at human chromosome 3q21-27. It encodes a 100-kD type II transmembrane glycoprotein, a widely expressed membrane metalloendopeptidase that degrades a number of substrates. The active site of the enzyme faces the extracellular space. MME is wide

  Obesity is one of the worldwide concerns, with high prevalence and adverse effects on human health and life expectancy. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), obesity is defined as abnormal or excessive fat accumulation in the body with body mass index (BMI) of 30 or more. Obesity increas

  2022-01-17

  

  In hypoxic breast cancer cells, BNIP3-mediated autophagy activation and elevation of amino JSH-23 levels were notable. BNIP3, a BCL-2 family protein, is known to be transcriptionally regulated by HIF-1α and to be involved in cancer cell death in hypoxic conditions [51]. As a link to autophagy, hypox

  Indeed, in women with different causes of epithelial layer damage, HIV infection rates have been reported to be very high [2], [3]. As observed from in vivo studies, disruption of the epithelium due to pathogens [45], [46] or chemical irritants [47], has resulted in women being at a higher risk of H

  To help resolve the question of simple binding versus transport, we reasoned that if quercetin is transported by GLUT1, we should be able to block its uptake by other GLUT1 inhibitors. We initially investigated the effects of two newly identified GLUT1 inhibitors, BAY-876 and WZB-117. WZB-117 was fi

  The eradication of agonist activity in compound was also confirmed in the ex vivo growth hormone (GH) release experiment conducted in isolated primary rat pituitary NVP-BKM120 Hydrochloride as shown in . Compound did not produce any noticeable GH secretion at up to 10μM concentration. It could al

  Here, we used a designer receptors activated exclusively by designer drugs (DREADD)-based chemogenetic approach in a novel Ghsr-IRES-Cre knock-in mouse line to test whether the activity of MBH GHSR neurons is required for the normal rebound food intake following fasting. We also used the Ghsr-IRES-C

  2022-01-17

  

  Though regulation of ghrelin interaction with GHSR has not been described previously, a precedent for a similar regulatory mechanism exists in the form of the interaction between Agouti-Related Protein (AgRP) and melanocortin receptor subtypes MC3R and MC4R (Ollmann, 1997). AgRP is produced by hypot

  The Cx family of integral membrane proteins [13] are key components of the Gap Junction channels that provide GJIC, which is indispensable in the preservation of tissue integrity and homeostasis in multicellular organisms. Gap Junction channels form a conduit for exchange of ions (Ca2+), second mess

  Mitochondria are also involved in other modalities of programmed cell death, particularly apoptosis. Intriguingly, the roles of mitochondria in apoptosis and ferroptosis are fundamentally different. In mitochondria-mediated apoptosis, the mitochondrion serves as a reservoir, storing apoptosis-regula
