  Although only Leu/CysAP (IRAP) (Herbest et al., 1997, Keller, 2004) and DPPIV (Alponti and Silveira, 2010, Kirino et al., 2009) had been identified and studied in adipocytes, our kinetic analysis suggested the highest physiological significance for AspAP (highest affinity) and APM and PSA (highest e

  Rapid nongenomic effects of corticosterone in an amphibian model Studies in the model organism, the roughskin newt, Taricha granulosa, over 30 years ago led to the discovery that stress can rapidly (within minutes) suppress sexual behavior (amplectic clasping) of male T. granulosa, an effect that

  2023-09-14

  

  Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) is a member of the secretin/growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH)/vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) family, with potent anti-inflammatory and potent cytoprotective properties [[6], [7], [8], [9], [10], [11], [12], [13]]. PACAP exists as

  Current limitations and future directions There are several limitations associated with PET imaging of aromatase using carbon-11 labeled aromatase inhibitors. Due to the very short half-life of carbon 11 (20min), PET studies with currently available, validated tracers can only be performed in med

  Asthma The chronic airway inflammatory disease Autophagy Compound Library receptor is associated with enhanced levels of exhaled NO generated by iNOS in the airway epithelium [12]. In asthmatic patients local and systemic changes in iNOS, peroxynitrite, arginase, ADMA and arginine levels have bee

  Results Four HT esters (butyrate, caprylate, laurate and stearate esters) were chosen as representative compounds of increasing lipophilicity (Fig. 1). We will refer to them as C4HT, C8HT, C12HT and C18HT, respectively. They have been synthesized, purified and characterized according to our previ

  Telmisartan Telmisartan is one of the widely used antihypertensive agents, which has demonstrated favorable safety and tolerability profiles, both alone and in combination therapies. It has a number of pharmacological properties that distinguish it from other ARBs—the longest plasma half-life, hi

  2023-09-13

  

  The cavity volume of the binding pocket may differ not only between species but also among various AhR/ARNT isoforms within a single species. It is noteworthy that even a single amino PLX7904 substitution within a binding pocket may result in a change in the cavity volume. This, in turn, may affect

  In the search for more specific inhibitors of uptake2, Iversen and Salt (1970) speculated that steroids may potentiate the actions of catecholamines on vascular smooth muscle by inhibiting uptake2-mediated catecholamine clearance of the transmitters. They went on to demonstrate that a variety of ste

  In chicken ovary, the adiponectin gene was found to be mainly expressed in theca cells and is suggested to exert a paracrine or autocrine effect on ovarian steroidogenesis (Chabrolle et al., 2007). A limited number of studies have revealed the effect of adiponectin on ovarian steroidogenesis or its

  Introduction Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by muscle weakness, which is mainly due to autoantibodies reducing the number or function of postsynaptic Edrophonium chloride receptors (AChRs) [1], [2]. Animal models have been developed to uncover the immunopathogenesis

  The 5α-reductase family is composed of three known isozymes, with the types I and II being the most known. Type I isozyme, which is the dominant form, can be found in the skin, liver, kidney, brain and lung. Furthermore, it has been evidenced that type I activity is several times higher in PC than i
