  Results Discussion Dopamine regulates behavioral responses to nicotine in Drosophila (Bainton et al., 2000), but neurochemical measurements of dopamine after nicotine stimulation had not been made. Here, we demonstrate for the first time that the stimulation of nAChRs causes dopamine release i

  Dihydrotestosterone in adult fish and frogs New perspectives and next directions Similar to other androgens, DHT can modulate reproductive endpoints in both fish and amphibians. However, predicting the effects of DHT can be challenging, as reproductive homeostasis is dependent upon the balance

  2024-09-24

  

  In our studies of leucine and BCH in pancreatic islets and clonal insulin cell lines, we noticed that leucine was a slightly stronger stimulant of insulin release. Previous studies showed that leucine can be metabolized to CO2[11], [12], [13], [14] and can increase acetoacetate in pancreatic islets

• Whole body loss of ACLY

  2024-09-24

  

  Whole-body loss of ACLY is early embryonic lethal, indicating that it serves non-redundant roles during development (Beigneux et al., 2004). Silencing or inhibition of ACLY suppresses the proliferation of many cancer cell lines and impairs tumor growth (Bauer et al., 2005, Hanai et al., 2012, Hatziv

  2024-09-24

  

  Interestingly, we noticed that LPS exposure was associated with decreased phosphorylation of AMPK and increased phosphorylation of p70S6K1, suggesting that AMPK inactivation and the subsequent mTOR activation might be involved in the development of LPS-induced inflammation. On the other side, treatm

  Although only Leu/CysAP (IRAP) (Herbest et al., 1997, Keller, 2004) and DPPIV (Alponti and Silveira, 2010, Kirino et al., 2009) had been identified and studied in adipocytes, our kinetic analysis suggested the highest physiological significance for AspAP (highest affinity) and APM and PSA (highest e

  2024-09-23

  

  The dependence of blood cell production on a limited number of HSC and HPC (hereafter collectively referred to as HSPC) means that protection from potential toxins is essential for maintenance of the hematologic system (see Fig. 1). For example, the generation of blood cells within the intramedullar

  2024-09-23

  

  A rate-limiting step in the generation of kynurenine and xanthurenic TPCA-1 synthesis is the oxidation of N-formyl-kynurenine to l-kynurenine via indolamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) or tryptophan dioxygenase (TDO). IDO and/or TDO knockdown decreases and ectopic over-expression increases production of e

  2024-09-23

  

  Neural progenitor cells (NPCs) are self-renewing, multipotent cells that are capable of differentiating into neurons, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes. NPCs are activated in response to a variety of pathological states in neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s disease and multiple sclerosis,

• Metformin s pluripotent roles are alluded to

  2024-09-23

  

  Metformin's pluripotent roles are alluded to in terms of its antitumorigenic, glucose-lowering, and cardioprotective effects, which are due in part to its upregulation of AMPK activity [39,40]. Metformin's glucose-lowering effect is a result of reduced hepatic gluconeogenesis, whereas improved insul

• Overexpression of SMAD and SMAD strongly enhanced luciferase

  2024-09-23

  

  Overexpression of SMAD3 and SMAD4 strongly enhanced luciferase activity of the new pN10 reporter gene construct which was further reinforced by addition of TGFβ. Serial mutations of SBE-1 and SBE-2 led to a slight loss in 5-LO promoter inducibility. The data demonstrate that the two SBEs within the

  Because serum ATX activity and entinostat mg LPA are well correlated with liver fibrosis stage histologically, both of these parameters merit consideration as novel markers of fibrosis. However, serum ATX activity may be a more useful test from a clinical laboratory perspective. First, LPA can incr

  2024-09-23

  

  Crohn’s disease, an inflammatory bowel disease that affects the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, is characterized by a polymorphism in ULK1 autophagy gene due to the presence of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Thus, the autophagic process is impaired during the disease. The mutations in the leu

  2024-09-23

  

  Introduction Lipoxygenases (LOXs) are key enzymes that catalyze the polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) such as arachidic sr1 (AA), linoleic acid (LA) and others unsaturated fatty acids (Brash, 1999). LOXs are expressed in immune, neural, epithelial, tumor cells and other cells (Claesson, 2009). B
