  Additionally, both in vitro and in vivo studies showed that a Ca2+ influx is closely related to apoptosis (Rizzuto et al., 2003). Calmodulin (CaM) is a multifunctional intermediate calcium-binding messenger protein expressed in all eukaryotic cells, which senses intracellular calcium levels by bindi

  2020-09-19

  

  One possible pitfall of using EPAC2 activators in the treatment of T2DM is their potential to increase glucagon levels. As discussed previously, although the ability of EPAC2 to increase glucagon expression and production is controversial, several studies show that this protein increases Gcg mRNA le

  2020-09-19

  

  EP4 is the major receptor to mediate PGE2-induced inflammatory pain. EP4 is upregulated by PF-04691502 in DRG neurons [16]. Intrathecal injection of the EP4 agonist produced pain responses [25]. Either systemic or local injection of EP4 antagonists relieves inflammatory pain [3], [16], [26]. However

  3. The acid-base properties of the IL are important issues to consider because protonation changes caused by Brønsted-acidic or basic ions may result in enzyme deactivation [29]. Thereby, the acid-base properties of the newly designed IL need proper control for enzymes by selection of appropriate c

  Genes involved in oxysterol metabolism The main enzymes that participate in the metabolism of oxysterols generally belong into one of two groups: transferases or oxidoreductases [22]. The following chapter describes those genes of oxysterol metabolism whose polymorphisms have been associated with

  Effect of DPP-4 Inhibitors on the Clinical Course of Heart Failure Four large-scale cardiovascular outcomes trials with DPP-4 inhibitors have been completed, and their findings have been published (Table 1) 31, 32, 33, 34. In 2 studies (with saxagliptin and alogliptin), DPP-4 inhibition was accom

  The quaternary structure of many of the family B members (i.e., secretin, glucagon, glucagon-like peptide and nitric oxide synthase inhibitors receptors) have been actively studied and it has been demonstrated that they can form homodimers/oligomers (Gao et al., 2009; Ng & Chow, 2015; Ng, Lee, & Cho

  At the cellular level, TGF-β1 has been involved in the formation of invadosomes (Mandal et al., 2008, Varon et al., 2006). Invadosomes are actin-based structures involved in matrix degradation and cell invasion through metalloproteinases (MMP) activity (Linder et al., 2011). Invadosomes, constitutiv

  Cystatins are potent inhibitors of cysteine proteases from the C1A family. These inhibitors primarily reduce the activities of cathepsin L-like proteases, although high concentration of barley cystatin hampers the degradation of storage proteins caused by cathepsin F-like protein (HvPap-1) (Cambra e

  Where does this transfer process occur? The maternal side of the placenta is textured and spongy looking. The surface has 20–30 distinctive compartments named cotyledons, inside of which are the chorionic villi that form the principal functional structural unit of the placenta. These villi are compl

  These findings further extend our knowledge of how P4 and/or E2 can mediate anxiety and fear responses. Female rats in behavioral estrous and ovx rats administered systemic P4 and/or E2 demonstrated significantly less anxiety in the open field and/or elevated plus maze, compared to diestrous rats, a

  In this work, we fabricated a kind of multifunctional nanoparticles, based on HAuNS coated by chitosan-stearic Berberine copolymer (CSO-SA), which was employed frequently to form micelles for hydrophobic drug delivery in our previous work [21], [22]. The nanoparticles can encapsulate DiR efficientl

  Initial investigations in the heart uncovered Epac as a positive regulator of myocyte hypertrophy [8], [9]. Concomitantly, Epac has been shown to regulate cardiac Ca homeostasis [8], [10], [11], [12], [13]. Ca is an essential second messenger in the cardiac physiology because its rhythmic variations
