  2019-11-29

  

  The generation of ROS, in addition to eliciting oxidative stress, is an important proapoptotic signal (Ott et al., 2007). Apoptosis is clearly associated with the production of ROS, since ROS generation occurs in the mitochondrial respiratory chain and disturbs mitochondrial homeostasis, which plays

  Oxysterols as Key Players in Metabolic Syndrome? Obesity and sedentary lifestyle are on the rise and pose serious threats to people\'s health and wellbeing. Obesity is often associated with other pathologies and is one of the criteria included in the definition of metabolic syndrome (MetS) (see G

  Conclusions Acknowledgment Introduction The role of cholesterol metabolism during multiple sclerosis (MS) is debated and the underlying physiopathology largely unknown. Dyslipidaemia is associated with worsening inflammatory activity and MS disease progression [1], [2], [3]. In the mouse mo

  Materials and methods Results Discussion The investigation of oxysterols is highly complex and challenging, arising not only from the large number of molecules in this family, but also due to their low abundance in biological systems compared to cholesterol and their susceptibility for auto

  2019-11-29

  

  All DGKs have at least two cysteine-rich regions homologous to the C1A and C1B motifs of PKCs [26]. In theory, these domains may bind DAG, perhaps localizing DGKs to where DAG accumulates. However, no DGK C1 domain has so far been conclusively shown to bind DAG. In fact, structural predictions sugge

  Several studies suggest that the beneficial metabolic effects of adiponectin in humans are primarily mediated by its HMW isoform. Increases in the ratio of HMW to total adiponectin, but not the total adiponectin level, correlated well with improved MG132 sensitivity during treatment with the insuli

  Methods Results Discussion MEN91507 is a potent and selective CysLT1 receptor antagonist. Guinea-pig lung membranes have been widely used for the detection and characterization of CysLT1 receptor antagonists: in this assay the high affinity (subnanomolar) binding of [3H[leukotriene D4 or [3

• Prostaglandins PGs are lipid mediators

  2019-11-28

  

  Prostaglandins (PGs) are lipid mediators that exhibit a variety of physiological properties by interacting specific G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) [10]. PGD2 is synthesized from PGH2 through two distinct PGD synthases; lipocalin-type PGD synthase (L-PGDS) and hematopoietic PGD synthase (H-PGDS)

  This study demonstrates that GUL-1 affects multiple pathways/processes. As GUL-1 is likely to function as an RNA-binding protein, it is conceivable that the mRNAs involved are bound to GUL-1 as part of the regulatory function of the protein. In fact, in S. cerevisiae Ssd1 was shown to bind multiple

  Introduction Human cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a herpesvirus which has a ubiquitous and worldwide distribution, and is the most frequent cause of congenital infection (Kenneson and Cannon, 2007). The prevalence is around 0.5–1% of all live births and is the leading cause of sensorineural hearing loss

  During the past decade, it became increasingly clear that the affinity and efficacy of small agonists acting on the orthosteric binding site of a GPCR can be modulated by ligands that bind to a topographically distinct (allosteric) binding site on the same GPCR molecule 33, 39, 40, 41, 42. This allo

  Several of the plant extracts that showed interaction with ERα and ERβ have differing reports concerning estrogenicity and receptor binding. Extracts of dong quai stimulated MCF-7 proliferation but failed to increase uterine weight or transactivate either ERα or ERβ in a cell assay (Amato et al., 20

  Damage of PE-HD due to both mechanisms is usually considered to emerge from a local stress concentration in the material, leading to the initiation of a crack, which subsequently propagates further through the material, and finally leads to macroscopic failure. In this process, crack growth occurs o

  Compounds 11–13 and 15 possessed relatively low clogP values and tended to show relatively weak antagonist activity regardless of their potent EP1 receptor affinity. Compounds 2–4, which were selected based on their potent in vivo antagonist activity, were found to be effective in an animal model.
