  Recognition and Repair of DNA Damage DNA is a reactive molecule that is continually challenged by both endogenous and exogenous insults 1., 2.. Cellular metabolites and their byproducts, environmental toxins, and radiation alter the chemical structure of DNA, producing a wide spectrum of DNA damage

  2021-10-25

  

  The EEGs of these six patients interestingly showed focal, multi-focal and generalized spikes, which was an exclusion criteria in our study as we selected our cohort to exclusively represent focal epilepsy. Remarkably all of these cases were diagnosed with paroxysmal exercise-induced dyskinesia (PED

  2021-10-25

  

  This study was approved by our institutional ethics committee, and informed consent was obtained from each participant or legal guardian. We performed whole-genome SNP genotyping in the one unaffected and two affected siblings by using the Illumina Human 610 Genotyping BeadChip panel, which interrog

  In the course of our synthetic studies, we also discovered an unprecedented application of Burgess reagent. Instead of generating an olefin by an intramolecular syn-elimination, the product resulting from the treatment of spirocyclic alcohols 11 and 12 with Burgess reagent led to the expansion of th

  Several mechanisms have been suggested to underline the release of signalling molecules from astrocytes: reverse operation of glutamate transporters, volume-regulated anion channels, gap-junctional hemi channels, diffusional release through purinergic receptors and Ca2+-dependent exocytosis [2], [15

  The PI3K/PTEN/Akt/mTORC1/GSK-3 pathway also plays key roles in metabolism, obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular diseases (, , , , ). Sometimes such clinical problems such as diabetes, obesity and metabolic disorders are interlinked with cancer. Clearly further elucidation of the roles of GSK-3 could

  2021-10-23

  

  The finding that GPR35 acts as a receptor for 2-acyl LPA is noteworthy, because P2Y5, which has homology with GPR35 (29%), has recently been shown to act as a receptor for 2-acyl LPA [14]. LPA3 is also a specific receptor for 2-acyl LPA [15]. It is also worth noting that GPR55, which has homology wi

• Typically upon chronic agonist exposure

  2021-10-23

  

  Typically, upon chronic agonist exposure GPCRs undergo desensitization and internalization resulting in a loss of receptor responsiveness over time (Drake et al., 2006, Kelly et al., 2008). However, not all GPCR systems conform to this model of acute agonist-mediated regulation. Some receptors have

  2021-10-23

  

  The importance of FXR-FGF15/19 signaling in BA homeostasis is illustrated by various BA malabsorption syndromes. Clinically, BA malabsorption causes diarrhea due to high BA concentrations in the colon that lead to secretion of water and electrolytes and stimulation of propulsive contractions [36]. P

  Conclusion Acknowledgments Introduction The gyloxalase pathway is a well-conserved antioxidant defense system found in all cells of the body [1], [2], [3], [4]. The glyoxalase pathway facilitates the neutralization of highly reactive and oxidizing dicarbonyl molecules, with methylglyoxal (M

  Molecular dynamics studies have proved an effective means of characterising transition state pathways between the inward- and outward-facing states, and providing the relative propensity for each state. For example, long-timescale simulations of the membrane-embedded LeuT dimer, totalling ∼21 μs, ha

  2021-10-23

  

  Bacterial GluRS comes in two flavors, discriminatory GluRS (D-GluRS) and non-discriminatory GluRS (ND-GluRS). While D-GluRS exclusively catalyses the transfer of Glu to tRNAGlu, the ND-GluRS can also glutamylate tRNAGln forming Glu-tRNAGln. The misacylated product is then transformed to Gln-tRNAGln

  In the gastrointestinal (GI) tract CART expression has been described in the enteric nervous system in rats (Ekblad et al., 2003), pigs (Wierup et al., 2007), sheep (Arciszewski et al., 2009), guinea pigs (Ellis and Mawe, 2003) and humans (Kasacka et al., 2012). Less is known about CART expression i

  A model substance often used in the studies of oxidative processes in erythrocytes is tert-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BHP), which, being lipophilic, passes easily across the erythrocyte membrane [9]. In erythrocytes treated with t-BHP (0.1–3mM) for less than 1h, a dramatic decline in the reduced glutath
