  2022-08-11

  

  Typically, upon chronic agonist exposure GPCRs undergo desensitization and internalization resulting in a loss of receptor responsiveness over time (Drake et al., 2006, Kelly et al., 2008). However, not all GPCR systems conform to this model of acute agonist-mediated regulation. Some receptors have

  2022-08-10

  

  Although the overall structures of mGlu2 and mGlu3 VFTs are highly similar, two major differences can be observed: (i) the number of functional Cl− binding sites, one in mGlu2 versus two in mGlu3 receptors and (ii) the loop 7 in lobe 2 is longer in mGlu3 than in the mGlu2 receptor. These two particu

  2022-08-10

  

  That MSCs release IL-6 upon LPS stimulation or other stressful stimuli like H2O2 [43] is well-documented [44]. However, there are conflicting reports on the potential effects of this cytokine in stroke. Some studies have found that the external administration of IL-6 in ischemic animal models leads

  The main aim of our study was to identify whether glucokinase and Irs2 were required for beta cell replication induced by short-term HF diet feeding. Glucokinase plays a critical role in regulating blood glucose levels by catalysing the rate-limiting biochemical reaction of glycolysis [26,27]. In pa

  We have previously shown in the same time frame reported here (10 min) that AG was not degraded into DAG [29] and that the half-life of AG in human serum is ∼10 min [49]. However, we cannot rule out in this study that there is not breakdown to DAG that could contribute to the levels of 125I-ghrelin

  2022-08-10

  

  There is a dual inducer of both galanin and super-threshold pain. First, injury-induced pain may stimulate galanin secretion. After peripheral nerve injury, the galanin expression level was upregulated in dorsal root ganglion (DRG), dorsal horn and hypothalamic arcuate of rats [25], [28], [33]. The

  2022-08-10

  

  Role of FPRs in regulating the inflammatory response Annexin I is a glucocorticoid-regulated protein possessing both pro- and anti-inflammatory activity that might be mediated, in part, by FPR activation [35]. Expressed in a variety of cell types, annexin I is particularly abundant in neutrophils

  Receptor interactions and binding mode of in hGPR40 were determined by docking studies. The compound was docked in the rebuilt co-crystal structure of hGPR40 (PDB ID: ) using MOE for loop modeling and energy minimization and Glide for molecular docking. The docking site used for the docking simulat

  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,

  STAR★Methods Author Contributions Introduction Hyaluronan, a major constituent of the extracellular matrix (ECM), is produced by hyaluronan synthases (HASs) and degraded by hyaluronidases (HYALs) (Vigetti et al., 2014). Physiologically, hyaluronan exists in a form with a molecular weight of

  In cancer cells, HIF-1α upregulates HK-II expression by binding to the hypoxia-responsive element in the HK-II promoter region to adapt to hypoxic conditions [20]. In the present study, we observed that mangiferin transiently increased HIF-1α expression in endothelial cells, suggesting another possi

  Introduction Coat colors are determined by both genetics and environment, especially genetics.
