  Ketone body metabolism and neuronal excitability One of the best examples of the close connection between metabolism and neuronal excitability is illustrated by the effect of ketone bodies on epileptic seizures. One third of patients suffering from epileptic seizures do not respond to conventiona

  Animal models of NASH The human NAS system (see above) is largely reproducible in NAFLD mouse models [37] and, therefore, has been increasingly applied in the preclinical assessment of liver histological responses to test compounds. In general, the NAS system is well suited for this purpose, alth

  The HIV-1 genome encodes for a variety of viral proteins necessary for target cell entry and viral replication. gp120 is an HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein that mediates viral particle entry by binding to cell surface receptor CD4 and co-receptors CXCR4 and/or CCR5 depending on viral tropism. While CXCR

  The existence of 5 EAAT subtypes raises obvious questions as to the cellular and anatomical distribution of the various transporters (for review, see Gegelashvili & Schousboe, 1998, Danbolt, 2001). While difference in techniques (i.e., protein vs. mRNA), reagents, and preparations (i.e., in vivo vs.

  In the present study, we characterized the expression of glucose transporters in the developing and adult mouse lens and showed that GLUT1 is the primary transporter expressed in the lens epithelium. We found that mice with a homozygous deletion of Slc2a1 from the lens epithelium developed cataracts

  In accordance with its similarity to classical NLSs, Importin α3 was recently reported as a nuclear transport receptor for Ci (). We therefore superimposed the Gli1 NLS model with the Importin α2 structure (3EFX), which has a structure similar to Drosophila Importin α3 () (Fig. 4.4B). Gli1 NLS fitte

  2021-12-23

  

  Gap junctions mediate electrical coupling between cells by conducting direct ionic currents and thereby modulate their electrical activity (Hormuzdi et al., 2004). In the nervous system, electrical coupling organizes network activity by amplifying and synchronizing neuronal firing (Galarreta and Hes

  The significance of Aβ and tau as therapeutic targets is not only derived from pathological evidence of postmortem brain but also from biochemical analysis of cultured human neurons. This is largely based on the induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technology that has been established to study Aβ, t

  In skeletal as well as in the Pramipexole muscle, the same FBPase isozyme is present (Gizak and Dzugaj, 2003). On the other hand, different isoforms of 6-fructo-2 kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase-2/PFK-2) have been discovered in muscle fibres and cardiomyocytes (Okar et al., 2001, Marsin

  Myelination by oligodendrocytes is required for saltatory nerve impulse conduction and proper CNS function (Bercury and Macklin, 2015). Defects in myelination and remyelination impair saltatory nerve conduction and functional connectivity leading to cognitive, behavioral, and motor deficits in neuro

  Over recent decades, there were three breakthroughs of high intensity heavy-ion acceleration [6]. The first is the invention of radio frequency quadrupole (RFQ) type accelerator, which could accelerate more than dozens of milli-ampere ion beams and is a good solution to space-charge-effect of heavy-
