  2021-10-08

  

  Among prostaglandins (PG), PGD2 remained the most elusive species for a long time and was initially regarded as having negligible biological activity [1]. In 1974 its inhibitory effect on platelet aggregation was discovered by Smith et al. [2] and Mills & McFarlain [3], and both pressor and depresso

  2021-10-08

  

  The GLU-Epac transgenic mouse enabled us to monitor cAMP responses to GPR119 ligands in individual primary cultured L-cells. Not all L-cells were found to be responsive to AR231453, suggesting there may be a subpopulation of L-cells that do not express functional GPR119. There was a tendency for sma

  2021-10-08

  

  Accordingly, a bioassay-guided approach was been used to study the bioactive compounds in VAS contribute to the α-glucosidase inhibitory and antioxidant activity. The 95% ethanol extraction of VAS was successively partitioned with petroleum ether, ethyl acetate and n-butanol. Ethyl acetate fraction

  2021-10-07

  

  PBI-4050 is an agonist of GPR40 and acts as an antagonist or inverse agonist of GPR84. It cannot be excluded that other targets besides GPR40 and GPR84 could be implicated in the mechanism of action of PBI-4050 and could be explored in future studies. However, the present study, and in particular th

  2021-10-07

  

  At the heart of ferroptosis is a process of lethal lipid peroxidation, which is the oxidative addition of molecular oxygen (O2) to lipids, such as polyunsaturated fatty acyl tails in phospholipids. The first descriptions of such enzymatic reactions were in 1955 by Peterson and colleagues [50] and Ro

  2021-10-07

  

  In regards to animals, several studies have reported the peroxisomal localization of FPS (Krisans et al., 1994, Olivier et al., 2000, Kovacs et al., 2007). Transfections of mammalian cells with the rat short FPS isoform followed by immunodetection localized the enzyme to the peroxisome (Olivier et a

  We also wonder what function(s) both FPPS1 and FPPS2 genes had in leaf. As some research indicated that the alpha-farnesene was also detected in ripe leaf of crabapple (Malus sp.) (Wu et al., 2012), one or both of them may be related to the synthesis of alpha-farnesene in leaf. To our knowledge, the

  2021-10-07

  

  The coenzyme S-adenosylmethionine (SAM)-binding pocket of Set7 is connected to the histone-tail binding groove by a conserved lysine-channel, similarly observed in vSET (Figures 2D and S3). The Set7 SAM-binding pocket is negatively charged as observed in other known HMTase structures. However, the b

  2021-10-07

  

  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

  2021-10-07

  

  In order to determine whether NF-κB could interact with GSTP1-1 promoter, we performed EMSA. One NF-κB like (−98κB) binding site was previously described in the GSTP1-1 promoter as a regulator element. However, few data about this site have been published and its role in the GSTP1-1 gene regulation

  About epilepsy, no specific seizure type has been identified because GLUT1-DS is associated with a wide range of epilepsies: patients develop seizures in infancy and early childhood, which are, frequently, do not respond to anticonvulsant medication. In infants, seizures are described as brief, subt
