The involvement of prostaglandins on the effects
2022-08-05
The involvement of prostaglandins on the effects induced by 1-nitro-2-phenylethane is similarly unlikely because vasorelaxation was not changed by indomethacin [20]. The inhibition of adenylyl cyclase with MDL-12330A [21] or cAMP-dependent protein kinase A with KT-5720 [22] also did not interfere w

GSNOR activity and functions The identification of the enzyme responsible for GSNO decomposition dates back to 1998, when Jensen and colleagues described an NAD(P)H-dependent GSNO catabolizing activity in cytosolic fractions obtained from rat liver [16]. Upon purification, they identified this en

In the pathogenesis of insulin resistance
2022-08-05
In the pathogenesis of insulin resistance, chronic activation of inflammatory pathways plays an important role, and the macrophage/adipocyte inter-communication provides a key mechanism underlying the common disease states of decreased insulin sensitivity [10]. This involves the migration of macroph

2022-08-05
Consistent with previous reports of an association between increased accumulation of cAMP and GLP-1 secretion [25, 44, 45], we hypothesized that Oleoyl-LPI may regulate GPR119 activation and secretion of GLP-1 secretion through the cAMP/PKA/CREB pathway. Pharmacological inhibition of PKA by H-89 was

2022-08-05
GPR119 is a class A GPCR expressed on pancreatic β-cells and certain enteroendocrine Ticlopidine HCl receptor which upon activation with an agonist, increases insulin secretion in response to rising glucose levels. Mechanistically, this insulinotropic effect is bifurcated involving both GPR119-me

FXR Agonists Azepinol[4,5-b]indole 1 (hEC50=600nM, efficacy (eff)=100%) was identified as a FXR agonist lead from a high-throughput screening effort. Structure–activity relationship (SAR) studies around the azepine ring demonstrated that dialkyl substitution at C-1 led to a 30-fold improvement in

Next to their indirect effect on ASBT expression, microbiota are also directly involved in BA homeostasis and FXR-FGF15/19 signaling. Different species of intestinal microbiota have the ability to biotransform BAs mainly by deconjugation and subsequent de-hydroxylation, the latter resulting in more

Introduction Given the growing acceptance of ergothioneine (ET) as a biologically important agent with potential therapeutic applications [[1], [2], [3], [4]] it is increasingly important to clearly establish the role of the organic cation transporter (novel) type 1 (OCTN1). OCTN1 was discovered

Studies of human and mouse GPR84, as ascertained by mRNA levels in various tissues, have determined that GPR84 is highly expressed on bone marrow cells, splenic T and B cells, and circulating granulocytes/monocytes/macrophages. In the latter cells, mRNA expression of is up-regulated only under infl

The dorsal horn of the spinal cord shows a high density of Ca2+-permeable AMPA receptors, particularly in the superficial spinal laminae (laminae I and II), where primary afferents carrying nociceptive and thermoreceptive inputs terminate and synapse on spinal second-order neurons (Engelman et al.,

Emerging evidence has shown that pharmacological FXR agonism attenuates chronic alcohol treatment-induced liver injury and steatosis [18], [19], while whole-body FXR knockout worsens alcohol-induced liver injury [19]. This suggests that FXR plays an important role in ALD development. However, defici

In the FARM motifs of GGPPSs, hydrophobic Iberin are replaced by aliphatic amino acids, which are more flexible residues and allow the entrance of longer substrates into the pocket (Wang and Ohnuma, 2000). It has been reported that the lepidopteran Manduca sexta CA possesses GGPP synthase (GGPPS) a

Andexanet alfa works as a decoy for the FXa inhibitor to bind to irreversibly. The recently completed ANDEXA-4 trial, which was a prospective, open-label, single group study, found that patients achieved good or excellent hemostasis in 82% of subjects [, , ]. There was an overall 10% thromboembolic
