  2022-02-18

  

  Glucagon was described as an insulin secretagogue as early as 1965 (Samols et al., 1965). Our studies extend these findings by demonstrating that this is a direct effect mediated by distinct receptors in the mouse pancreas. Previous experiments on isolated β Blebbistatin clearly show that glucagon i

  Introduction Alzheimer's disease (AD) affects ca. 46 million people worldwide [1] and it is expected that the number will double or triple by 2030 or 2050, respectively, while no significant progress has been made in research for early diagnosis and new efficient therapies. Currently available me

  Both anxiety-like behavior and sucrose preference/intake were reduced in GPR40/FFAR1 KO male mice, while social behavior was normal in KO mice. These findings indicate that brain GPR40/FFAR1 is involved in the modulation of anxiety- and depression-like behavior in rodents. Previous studies have demo

  Fenton reaction-based nanomaterials for ferroptosis In Fenton reaction, H2O2 is converted by Fe2+ or Fe3+ to highly oxidative ROS (Eqs. (1) and (2)), which is commonly used to catalyze the degradation of refractory organics [34]. Since the tumor microenvironment is characterized by low acidity an

  The present study was therefore conducted with three aims; (1) we tested the effect of IRL-1620, a selective ETB receptor agonist, on the analgesic tolerance to morphine and oxycodone in mice; (2) we determined the expression of ETA receptors and ETB receptors in the 4-IPP of morphine and oxycodone

  Conclusion Author contributions Ethics approval Competing interests Introduction VHL is a well-known tumor suppressor and works as a target recruitment subunit of an E3 ubiquitin ligase complex that recruits hydroxylated hypoxia inducible factor α (HIF-α) for proteasomal degradation u

  Hedgehog pathway The Hedgehog pathway (Fig. 1) derives its name from Hh gene mutant Drosophila, which presents a spiked phenotype resembling the animal “hedgehog” [13]. The Hh proteins control embryonic development in vertebrates, where the signaling mechanisms mediated by the proteins are multip

  Importantly, recent in vivo results demonstrated that combining an HDACi and a IKK inhibitor significantly reduced ovarian tumor growth compared with either inhibitor alone [26]. The slowest tumor growth in the HDACi/IKK inhibition combination group was associated with the lowest CXCL8 tumor and pla

  2022-02-17

  

  GPR55 GPR55 has been described as a type 3 cannabinoid receptor due to its ability to detect endocannabinoids and may play a role in the endocannabinoid lipid sensing system [28]. GPR55 is activated by both cannabinoid endogenous agoinsts (endocannabinoids) and non-cannabinoids fatty acids namely

  Introduction High dose niacin, or nicotinic acid, has been used as an athero-protective drug for more than 50 years (Carlson, 2005, Offermanns, 2006). When taken in pharmacological doses (>1g/day), the nicotinic pannexin-1 inhibitor form of niacin modulates plasma lipid profiles including decrea

  The unique mechanism of EAAT anion channel gating results in neuronal or glial anion conductances that follow changes in substrate concentrations and thus allow feedback control of glutamate release (Wersinger et al., 2006) or modification of GABAergic postsynaptic currents by glutamatergic signals

  Epidemiological studies revealed that vitamin D deficiency was associated with a wide range of neuropsychiatric disorders and neurodegenerative diseases, in particular, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease (Annweiler et al., 2013; Knekt et al., 2010), dementia and cognitive function impairment (Balio

  cAMP is a key secondary messenger which transduces extracellular signals at glucagon receptors to intracellular effector molecules. cAMP-protein kinase A (PKA) pathway increases the gene expression of enzymes including phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) and glucose 6-phosphatase (G6Pase) whi

  CSL is endowed with an intrinsic transcription-repressive function, and CAF-effector genes are induced as a consequence of CSL downmodulation (Hu et al., 2012, Procopio et al., 2015), as it can occur upon exposure to pro-carcinogenic stimuli such as UVA or smoke-derived compounds (Menietti et al., 2
