  2021-11-09

  

  Recently, we suggested that KYNA – an endogenous GPR35 agonist could be produced in a human cornea since we showed the presence of the enzymes that catalyze the synthesis of KYNA – kynurenine aminotransferases I-III in corneal epithelium, stroma and endothelium (). Therefore, these findings provided

  2021-11-09

  

  The effects of opioids such as morphine are mediated through the opioid receptors. Opioid receptors are widely expressed both peripherally and in the CNS (Chen et al., 1993, Evans et al., 1992). The opioid agonist morphine has been shown to amplify the effect of the tubular cell-gp120 interaction o

  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

Different concentrations (10, 25, 50, and 100μM) of pure MG (Sigma) were derivatized with 1,2-diaminobenzene and the absorbance of the resulting derivative was read by Cary 50 Bio UV-Visible spectrophotometer (Varian). One milliliter of total

  Conclusion In summary, a series of novel GPR40 agonists bearing phenylpropiolic ONO-5046 motif with favorable metabolic stability were prepared and evaluated for their activities as GPR40 agonists. Among them, compound 9 was identified as a structurally distinct GPR40 agonist possessing potent a

  Phylogenetic analysis of vertebrate receptors for peptides similar to glucagon Genes for receptors for peptides similar to glucagon and other secretin-like hormones have been identified in a number of vertebrate species (Sivarajah et al., 2001, Chow et al., 2004, Irwin and Wong, 2005, Cardoso et

  2021-11-09

  

  Analogous to all GPCRs, the GLP-1R transduces signals from the outside of the cell to the inside by allosterically converting a ligand-binding event to activation of intracellular effectors. The GLP-1R couples to several intracellular effectors and this pleiotropic coupling is physiologically releva

  2021-11-09

  

  As ghrelin effects are suspected to be mediated by a heterogeneous population of G-protein-coupled-receptors [2], [21], other so far unknown subtypes of ghrelin receptors differing from the classical GHSR-1a may additionally exist that might also mediate ghrelin effects on the heart. Thus, the real

  2021-11-09

  

  Ghrelin contains an n-octanoylation at its Ser3 residue (Kojima et al., 1999). While des-acyl ghrelin is found in high concentrations in the blood, only the lipidated form is active at GHSR (Bednarek et al., 2000). We previously showed that ghrelin interacts with the membrane via its lipid modificat

  So far only few studies report about GAL in the visual system: GAL has been detected in the cornea of rat (Jones and Marfurt, 1998), mouse (Henken and Martin, 1992) and pig (Stone et al., 1988), and in the uvea of rat (Strömberg et al., 1987), pig (Stone et al., 1988) and cat (Grimes et al., 1994),

  Albumin is the major carrier of free fatty acids (FFAs) in plasma [59], and harbours seven binding sites that are common to FFAs with a range of chain-lengths (C10-C18) across its three domains (Fig. 1a) [60,61]. In vitro, saturated, mono- and poly-unsaturated FFAs, with chain lengths ranging from C

  It has been reported that the pathway upstream of YAP phosphorylation is operative in a tissue or context-specific manner. LPA or S1P bound to their corresponding membrane GPCRs and act through Rho GTPases to activate YAP/TAZ [11]. Consistently, another report showed that activation of PAR1 (a GPCR)

  The normal function of the FBPase enzyme is to catalyze the hydrolysis of F1,6BP to F6P. This activity is induced by diabetes and starvation and is increased in diabetic rats. The level of FBPase can be normalized by insulin, however, similar information is not available from diabetic patients. FBP
