  2022-06-29

  

  Recently, a receptor for nicotinic acid, named GPR109A (also known as HM74a in man or PUMA-G in the mouse) has been identified (Lorenzen et al., 2001, Lorenzen et al., 2002, Soga et al., 2003, Tunaru et al., 2003, Wise et al., 2003). This receptor, a member of the 7 transmembrane G-protein coupled f

  Discussion The pattern of activity exhibited by SSR 504734 and Lu AA21279 in the MEST test was very similar. Both compounds were inactive at the lowest dose (3.0mg/kg), but exhibited robust increases (∼150%) at 10mg/kg followed by a maximal detectable response at 30mg/kg. Based on the magnitude o

  Introduction Herpes viruses are members of Herpesviridae family. This family consists of DNA viruses and it is a very large family. The viruses related to this family cause many diseases in animals and humans [1]. Herpes simplex viruses cause mucocutaneous lesions in the affected humans. These le

  Depending upon the varied habitats (e.g. soil, water, animal digestive tracts, etc.), microbes possess a diverse range of carbohydrate ABC transporters and metabolic pathways (Rodionov et al., 2013; Bräsen et al., 2014).

  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

  2022-06-29

  

  GOAT belongs to the super family of membrane-bound O-acyltransferases (MBOATs). It is encoded by the gene MBOAT4 in human. The protein GOAT is highly conserved from zebrafish to human (Yanagi et al., 2018). GOAT is ubiquitously expressed with abundant expression in the stomach and intestine (Sakata

  In a mouse model of hyperhomocysteinemia (a risk factor for the development of vascular dysfunction) it has been shown that myoendothelial communication is enhanced due to increased expression of Cx37 and IK1 dna ligase [], allowing the propagation of endothelial signals to VSMC and thereby decreasi

  Biologically active non-peptide galanin receptor ligands The first successful attempt in overcoming these weaknesses was undertaken by Saar et al. (2002). Screening of galanin sequence established that Trp-2, Asn-5, Tyr-9 were pharmacophores, responsible for biochemical action of the peptide. Bas

  The structural similarity software vROCS (OpenEye) [45] has been utilized by Musumeci et al. [46] to screen the Maybridge [47] HitFinder database (∼14,400 compounds) using Distamycin A (Fig. 3B) as a query. Using the Tanimoto coefficient (Section 6.4) and vROCS's colour scoring (atom/feature similar

  Conclusion In summary, a series of novel GPR40 agonists bearing phenylpropiolic E-64-c motif with favorable metabolic stability were prepared and evaluated for their activities as GPR40 agonists. Among them, compound 9 was identified as a structurally distinct GPR40 agonist possessing potent acti

  A breakthrough in the understanding of the unique properties of GPX4-downregulation-induced cell death was accomplished when Seiler et al. in 2008 demonstrated the role of 12/15-lipoxygenase (12/15-LOX), a polyunsaturated fatty 6206 australia metabolizing enzyme [92], in the execution of GPX4-knock

  Materials and methods All studies were performed in 230–250g timed-pregnant Sprague Dawley rats (Harlan, Indianapolis, Indiana). Animals were housed in a temperature controlled room with a 12:12 light:dark cycle. All experimental procedures in this study were in accordance with the National Insti

  Cellular transportation of nanoparticles and nanocomplexes Endocytosis and exocytosis are critically important phenomena in cellular metabolism, which involve the complex vesicular system. They deal with major cellular transportation activities including membrane homeostasis by transporting prote

  Introduction Histamine was generally accepted as a neurotransmitter in 1984, when histamine was first identified to be located in tuberomamillary nucleus (TM) of the brain (Watanabe et al., 1984). In mammals, histaminergic neurons play an important role in regulating multiple physiological activi

  It was then found that TAZ, a YAP holomog, binds heteromeric SMAD2/3–4 complexes in a TGF-ß-dependent fashion, and is recruited to TGFβ response elements (Varelas et al., 2008). Knockdown experiments identified TAZ as critical for nuclear accumulation of SMAD2/3/4 complexes in response to TGF-ß, and
