  In cardiomyocytes mechanical stress builds up via FAs and the related costamere structures, and excessive stress can cause cardiac hypertrophy. Cardoso et al. (2016) report a comprehensive study that demonstrates the link between stress-induced FAK activation and a FAK-mediated initiation of a tran

  Hippo Signaling in Autoimmunity An imbalance of T cell subsets, such as immunosuppressive regulatory T NMS-873 (Treg) and inflammatory TH17, has a key role in autoimmune diseases. Recently, investigations found that TAZ but not YAP enhances TH17 differentiation but attenuates Treg differentiation

  Discovery of GPR109A The murine niacin receptor, protein upregulated in macrophages by interferon-γ (PUMA-G), was identified as a G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) expressed in adipocytes and spleen [22], [23]. This finding suggested a role of this receptor in macrophage function [24]. In 2003, t

  Our overall goal is to develop selective compounds for low-affinity/high-capacity transporters inhibitors (i.e. OCT1–3 and PMAT), and provide the field with much needed, specific pharmacological tools to study these transporters. In our initial efforts, we synthesized halogen substituted analogs and

  PBI-4050 is an agonist of GPR40 and acts as an antagonist or inverse agonist of GPR84. It cannot be excluded that other targets besides GPR40 and GPR84 could be implicated in the mechanism of action of PBI-4050 and could be explored in future studies. However, the present study, and in particular th

  Therefore, we investigated the acute and delayed response of 92 human mono- and dizygous twins to an acute shift from low fat to high fat diet with respect to serum levels of VEGF and the expression of SLC2A1 in subcutaneous adipose tissue (AT). By comparing the degree of concordance of basal and di

  GK, also called hexokinase IV or D, is a glycolytic enzyme that converts dapagliflozin receptor to glucose-6-phosphate. GK has unique characteristics compared with those of the ubiquitously expressed hexokinase isoforms I–III, and is predominantly expressed in the pancreas and liver. In pancreatic

  Experimental Results Discussion The use of Dex-BSA asa membrane-limited glucocorticoid has been met with some skepticism, mainly for its assumed instability. Here we provide conclusive evidence that Dex-BSA is stable in solution over an extended period of time and at high temperature (i.e.,

  2022-01-15

  

  However, ghrelin has a short half-life of 15–20 min, because it is a natural peptide containing 28-amino acids, its clinical usefulness as a therapeutic agent may be limited (Mosińska et al., 2017; Vestergaard et al., 2007). Hence, many efforts have been made to elucidate the smallest segment of ghr

  It is widely acknowledged that a significant gap exists between the increasingly detailed knowledge of subcellular mechanisms and the ability to control large-scale anatomy. Radical advances in regenerative medicine require approaches aimed at taming the fundamental complexity of cellular regulation

  The active site of PS1 is located at the interior of its TM horseshoe-like fold (29) (Fig. 1). TM2 and TM6 serve as “doors” for substrate entry (30), as also observed in recent molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of the PS1 subunit (31). Recent coarse-grained (CG) and atomic simulations also showed

  The objective of this study is to design and synthesize drug-like molecules with agonistic activity on both receptors; PPARγ and FFAR1. These agents would act as insulin sensitizers and insulin secretagogues through their action on PPARγ and FFAR1, respectively. The design of drugs with dual mode of

  The other possibility for the lack of effects of H1 receptor agonists, e.g. histamine, on the NMDAR-mediated responses is that other neurotransmitters may cause more profound effects than histamine on the gliotransmitter release from astrocytes. For example, recent studies showed that noradrenaline,
