  2022-03-11

  

  Glutathione transferases (EC 2.5.1.18; also referred to as glutathione S-transferases, GSTs) are ubiquitous and promiscuous enzymes that catalyze various kinds of reactions involving a wide variety of substrates that are toxic and chemically reactive (Angelucci et al., 2005). The primary function of

  Conclusion In conclusion, we showed that apoptosis is involved in etoposide-induced pancreatic β-cell cytotoxicity. More importantly, as shown in Fig. 6, the results of this study demonstrated that etoposide induces pancreatic β-cell death via the JNK/ERK activation-mediated GSK-3 downstream-trig

  2022-03-11

  

  In mice, iNKT cells are most frequent (20–30%) among liver T lymphocytes, while they only constitute 0.4–1% of the total T cells in thymus, bone marrow, spleen, lymph node, and intraepithelial lymphocytes. In humans, iNKT cells constitute approximately only a 0.1–0.2% of the peripheral blood T lymph

  In the present study, administration of both muscimol and bicuculline also affected the biosynthesis of GnRHR. A significant decrease in GnRHR level in the POA, AH, VMH and SME following muscimol treatment as well as the opposite effect induced by bicuculline indicates that GnRHR gene expression is,

  Introduction Methylglyoxal (MG) is a highly reactive dicarbonyl metabolite formed in cells mainly by the spontaneous degradation of triose phosphates, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate, and dihydroxyacetone phosphate (Rabbani and Thornalley, 2012). It exists in a wide range of organisms, including proto

  2022-03-11

  

  There were significant differences in mRNA expression levels observed for 7 out of 15 analyzed genes. This observation suggests, that selection of a reference/control group may influence interpretation of gene expression studies performed in liver pathologies. This study directly evidenced that anal

  Ironically, another series of studies examining the role of EAATs in CNS injury and disease suggest that under some pathological conditions, the operation of the EAATs is not protective, but actually contributes to the excitotoxic process (Rossi et al., 2000). The transporters do so by serving as th

  2022-03-11

  

  Throughout the last few decades, evidence has accumulated indicating that NTTs, whose primary location is the cell surface, are subject to a series of regulatory processes of intracellular traffic to and from the membrane (Robinson and Jackson, 2016; Vaughan and Foster, 2013). In addition, lateral m

  Dysregulation of glutamate transporter expression and function Aberrant glutamate transporter function and expression are associated with various neurological disorders. Therefore, understanding the underlying mechanisms of EAAT1/2 expression may provide therapeutic targets for treating neurologi

  2022-03-10

  

  Olanzapine has been reported to attenuate insulin secretion, cause insulin resistance (Chintoh et al., 2008) and reduce whole body carbohydrate oxidation (Klingerman et al., 2014). However, a blunting of these effects in Gcgr−/− mice would not appear to explain the protection against olanzapine-indu

  Multiple mechanisms have been suggested by which glucagon can increase energy expenditure although none have been conclusively proven to be responsible. Both enhanced gluconeogenesis and enhanced protein turnover secondary to hyperglucagonaemia have been suggested as the reason for the increased met

  For the two KO models (CX30 and CX43), fluorescence recovery is almost always best fitted with a 2-component exponential (Fig. 6A and D). Statistical analysis of the parameters (Table 1) shows that in both cases the two time scales and the fraction of recovery associated with the fast intracellular

  With rare exceptions, the biological role of γ-secretase cleavage of substrates other than Notch 1 has been ignored during proof of concept preclinical repurposing studies. For example, in the GSI AD trial, many individuals noted changes in hair color, apparently due to inhibition of tyrosinase, ano

  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

  FBPase deficiency is a very rare inborn error of fructose NAD+ of autosomal recessive inheritance. This disorder usually occurs in the first year of life through ketotic hypoglycemia and lactic acidosis triggered by catabolic episodes such as prolonged fasting or febrile infections (Steinmann et al.
