  2022-01-28

  

  GnRH-ant have been designed to obtain pharmacological compounds to block the pituitary–gonadal axis without the undesirable flare effect exerted by GnRH itself or by the GnRH-a (see Section 2.2). GnRH-ant competitively block the binding of GnRH to GnRHRs (Schally, 1999; Tan & Bukulmez, 2011); they p

  Discussion CHO-K1 cell lines stably expressing each of the NH2-terminal isoforms of the human glycine reuptake transporter GlyT1 have been developed. GlyT1 uptake assays have been validated for two lines for each isoform, one low and high expressor. Expression levels in the lines have been confir

  In this study, we investigated the contribution of GCK, G6PC, and PCK expression to glycemia in diabetes. We examined liver tissue from 40 obese subjects: 12 had normal glucose tolerance (NGT) and 28 had type 2 diabetes. Materials and methods Results Discussion This study aimed to investig

  2022-01-28

  

  The effect of GCK-NES mutations on enzyme kinetics and protein stability might account for the hyperglycaemia that characterizes MODY2 patients, since reduced GCK activity would increase the threshold for glucose stimulated insulin release in beta-cells [31,37,49]. However, a more in depth functiona

  2022-01-27

  

  Ghrelin is a brain-gut peptide hormone secreted from the stomach to stimulate food intake by acting on its receptor, growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR). GHSR is expressed throughout the brain and in NPY/AgRP neurons in the ARC (Cowley et al., 2003, Willesen et al., 1999). Ghrelin-expressing

  Exposure of human and animals to MPTP can reproduce all the characteristic motor and non-motor signs of PD, in addition to mimicking the same responses and side effects to drugs used to treat PD [37], [38]. Anatomically, intoxication with MPTP induces the same selective loss of substantia nigra DA n

  The role of cell-to-cell interactions in coordinating the cells’ behaviour to ensure an appropriate anterior pituitary hormone response is receiving increasing attention. Anterior pituitary Nalidixic acid receptor interact with neighbouring cells through junctional complexes. As their name implies,

  2022-01-27

  

  Many investigators have noted structural similarities between certain flavonoids and benzodiazepines, such as diazepam, that are the most widely studied positive modulators of GABAA receptors. Benzodiazepines can act on these receptors via ‘two distinct and separable mechanisms’ (Walters, Hadley, Mo

  Pathological consequences of disruption in the GABA/T current equilibrium This issue has been particularly investigated in the context of absence seizures. These seizures are non-convulsive epileptic attacks present in many generalized genetic epilepsies that are characterized by a sudden and rel

  2022-01-27

  

  Septic shock, a condition where endothelium-derived substances most likely play an important role, is often accompanied by cardiac dysfunction, pulmonary hypertension, systemic hypotension and impaired oxygen utilisation with systemic acidosis (Vincent, 1998). Experimental endotoxaemia shows a simil

  2022-01-27

  

  Hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs), including HIF-1α, HIF-1β, HIF-2α and HIF-3α, are important endogenous signaling proteins that contribute to the cellular response to hypoxia. Among these proteins, HIF-1α is involved in many pathophysiological processes, including inflammation, tumor growth and meta

  2022-01-27

  

  Hexokinases (HXKs) are major regulatory enzymes in sugar metabolism and in sugar sensing in plants (Claeyssen and Rivoal, 2007, Granot et al., 2013, Sheen, 2014, Aguilera-Alvarado and Sánchez-Nieto, 2017). HXK can phosphorylate both glucose and fructose to respective hexose-6-phosphates as a first s

  OS has a key role in the pathogenesis of micro- and macrovascular diabetic complications [3]. There is now convincing evidence that the enzymes that generate ROS and gasotransmitters, such as nitric oxide (NO) and CO, are redox regulated at both the transcription and activity levels, and are also im

  2022-01-27

  

  Epigenetic drugs, such as HDAC inhibitors, regulate gene expression by affecting the activity of histone or DNA modifying enzymes and their associated transcriptional response [141]. BET bromodomain protein inhibition is another epigenetic approach for blocking the Hedgehog pathway at the downstream

  The fibulins are a newly abundantly in the basement membrane of blood vessels. Among them, fibulin-1 is essential for elastin polymerization. Tropoelastin cannot be assembled into mature elastin fibrils without the functional fibulin-1. In adult blood vessels, pronounced fibulin 1 deposition can be
