  2021-12-15

  

  The differential tissue- and ligand-dependent signaling described here has important implications for the therapeutic potential of synthetic GPR109A agonists for the treatment of atherosclerosis. The failure of MK-0354, a biased, partial GPR109A agonist, to activate signaling pathways upstream of va

  2021-12-15

  

  After initial validation of the ability of Ad5-Cre virus to express Cre recombinase protein in glial cells in vitro and in vivo, we employed this virus to induce site-specific deletion of our target GlyT1 in the thalamus, through injection of the cKO GlyT1 mice. This transgenic line was constructed

  2021-12-15

  

  Injury to oligodendrocyte progenitors caused in part by glutamate contributes to the pathogenesis of myelination disturbances in PVL [5]. In the immature human brain, the susceptibility of developing oligodendrocytes to hypoxia-ischemia correlates with their expression of glutamate receptors of the

  2021-12-15

  

  There is increasing evidence that Cxs in astrocytes may play a role in several models of brain pathologies. Interestingly their roles are at the moment more considered through their hemichannel function (Bennett et al., 2012; Bosch and Kielian, 2014; Davidson et al., 2013; Orellana et al., 2016; Kim

  Next, we investigated the transfer of peptides and proteins between contacting cells by nano-LC-MS/MS analysis using the fractions corresponding to molecules higher than 3 kDa. The MS data analysis revealed the direct transfer of several labelled peptides between receivers and donors. Labelled pepti

  2021-12-15

  

  Signals transmitted via MEGJ MEGJ facilitate the direct transfer of ion currents or small molecules between EC and VSMC. Molecules passing through MEGJ are mainly second messengers such as Ca2+, IP3, and cAMP [31,32,] or endothelium-derived hyperpolarization (EDH) signals [34, 35, 36]. Moreover,

  Biologically active non-peptide galanin receptor ligands The first successful attempt in overcoming these weaknesses was undertaken by Saar et al. (2002). Screening of galanin sequence established that Trp-2, Asn-5, Tyr-9 were pharmacophores, responsible for biochemical action of the peptide. Bas

  2021-12-15

  

  Some clinical reports have suggested that galanin has a role in the neurobiology of mood disorders [[6], [7], [8], [9], [10]]. In behavioral studies, contradictory results have been reported [11,12]. For example, systemic administration of non-selective galanin receptor agonists, such as galmic [13]

  2021-12-14

  

  Fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFRs) play an essential role in the regulation of cell survival, proliferation, migration and differentiation. FGFRs are a family of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) exhibiting an extracellular immunoglobulin (Ig)-like ligand binding domain, a transmembrane domai

  Reports described a range of synthetic GPR40 agonists with desirable safety and efficacy profiles, compared with existing antidiabetic therapies such as insulin and sulfonylureas [[20], [21], [22], [23], [24], [25], [26], [27], [28]]. Among them, several small molecules were tested in the clinical t

  In this study, according to the critical pharmacophore T31, Y113 and R140 of FBPase, using the strategy of pharmacophore-based virtual screening, a series of novel scaffold inhibitor targeted the AMP binding site of FBPase were screened, their inhibitory activities against FBPase were further tested

• The exact mechanism by which N BPs inhibit FPPS

  2021-12-14

  

  The exact mechanism by which N-BPs inhibit FPPS remains unclear. Computer modeling [10] suggests that N-BPs mimic the structure of the enzyme’s natural isoprenoid pyrophosphate substrates, geranyl pyrophosphate (GPP)/dimethylallyl pyrophosphate (DMAPP) or act as carbocation transition state analogs
