  2021-11-16

  

  NMDARs are glutamate-gated ionotropic receptors that are involved in excitatory neurotransmission and plasticity (Traynelis et al., 2010). There have been several reports showing that neurosteroids acting as negative modulators of NMDARs exert neuroprotective activity in both in vitro and in vivo mo

  2021-11-16

  

  The mechanisms underlying the inhibitory effects of n-3 FAs on neoplasia have not been completely elucidated. Until recently, the emphasis has been on the ability of n-3 FAs to compete for the pathways that lead to the synthesis of pro-inflammatory eicosanoids from arachidonic acid, an n-6 FA, there

  Acknowledgments Introduction Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are a common treatment for a number of disease states involving an inflammatory reaction. This group of drugs mediate their anti-inflammatory effects mainly by inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX), an enzyme of prime imp

  Ning et al. showed that LPC 18:1 appeared to increase insulin release through both GPR119-dependent and -independent mechanisms (Ning et al., 2008). In our study, we have shown that not only GPR119 but also GPR40 and GPR55 participate in LPC-stimulated insulin secretion (Fig. 4, Fig. 5) and target p

  2021-11-16

  

  Potential roles for S1P in angiogenesis, cancer, and autoimmune diseases such as RA have been reported [73]. In RA synoviocytes, S1P has been shown to enhance expression of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in response to the pro-inflammatory cytokines, TNF-α and interleukin (IL)-

  H2O2 induced astrocyte ATP release through lysosome exocytosis. The LDH assay and electric microscope results indicated that the increase of extracellular ATP concentration was not due to the cell rupture, but the alternations in cell activities. In addition, when lysosome exocytosis was blocked by

  The present experimental study identified remarkable protective effects for celecoxib against renal toxicity caused by CSA. All aspects of CSA nephrotoxicity, functional, inflammatory, fibrotic, and structural, were improved by celecoxib. Mechanistically, pharmacological and immunostaining protein e

  2021-11-15

  

  Excessive extracellular glutamate may induce excitotoxic neuronal damage in disorders of the CNS (Schwartz et al., 2003). EAATs are considered to contribute to prevention of excitotoxicity by glutamate uptake. Our data revealed that expression levels of membrane EAAT proteins in astrocytes are much

  2021-11-15

  

  The concept of the axo-myelin ‘synapse’ Axons can release glutamate in a Ca+-dependent and independent manner (reviewed in [13,69]). Glutamate released from axons activates GluRs located in myelin, a feature that gave rise to the idea of the axo-myelin ‘synapse’ by analogy with classical synaptic

  The role of cell-to-cell interactions in coordinating the cells’ behaviour to ensure an appropriate anterior pituitary hormone response is receiving increasing attention. Anterior pituitary ddhC interact with neighbouring cells through junctional complexes. As their name implies, the complexed are

  In summary, this study demonstrated the cDNA cloning and characterization of the galanin type II receptor (GalR2) and a novel GalR2-like receptor (GalR2-L) in chickens, in which these two receptors are possibly originated from a gene quality event that occurred in the early vertebrate lineage. Resu

  2021-11-15

  

  Further insight in how exactly galanin might inhibit seizures was obtained from galanin transgenic mice. It occurred that the altered susceptibility to seizures was in direct correlation with glutamate release from hippocampal slices obtained from these animals (Fig. 2(b)). While no differences were

  2021-11-15

  

  A mutation in stearoyl coenzyme A desaturase 1 gene was reported to reduce sebum production and monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) synthesis in mice, which was accompanied with impaired clearance of gram-positive bacteria-induced skin infection (Georgel et al., 2005). Interestingly, gram-positive ba

  To explain the corporate debt maturity, following Brockman et al. (2010), the time-varying control variables we include are: firm size (LSIZE), the square of firm size (LSIZE2), leverage (LEVERAGE), asset maturity (ASSET_MAT), managerial ownership (OWN), market-to-book ratio (MB), term structure of

  Despite the importance of intratumor phenotypic heterogeneity for tumor progression and therapy resistance (Marusyk et al., 2012, Marusyk and Polyak, 2010), our understanding of regulators of this process and our ability to modulate them are very limited. Recent advances in genomic sequencing and si
