  cAMP is a key secondary messenger which transduces extracellular signals at glucagon receptors to intracellular effector molecules. cAMP-protein kinase A (PKA) pathway increases the gene expression of enzymes including phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) and glucose 6-phosphatase (G6Pase) whic

  2021-09-28

  

  Acute lung injury is present in sepsis and SIRS and is associated with increased pulmonary levels of proinflammatory cytokines and neutrophil extravasation into the alveolar space [19], [24]. Hauser et al. [25] observed that fragmented mitochondria induced pulmonary inflammation via neutrophil activ

  In the light of the above-mentioned considerations, it is interesting to note that the FPR-related research with regards to bias agonism did not prosper during considerably during the last decade (possible exceptions are [[8], [9], [10], [11]]. However, with new insights in receptor chemistry and fu

  Action of GPR55 in metabolically active tissues In addition to being highly expressed by discrete brain regions, as described in Section 2, GPR55 is also expressed in a wide range of peripheral tissues, including spleen, adrenals and bone (Sawzdargo et al., 1999, Ryberg et al., 2007, Whyte et al.

  Introduction The third variable (V3) loop of the gp120 envelope glycoprotein (Env) on the surface of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) becomes exposed after the virus binds CD4, the initial receptor; the V3 loop plays an important role in contacting the coreceptor CCR5 or CXCR4 to media

  In addition to vertebrate species, GnRH has been identified in invertebrates, such as in the Protochordate Ciona intestinalis (Powell et al., 1996; Adams et al., 2003), the decapods mollusk Octopus vulgaris (Iwakoshi et al., 2002), the gastropod mollusk, the sea hare Aplysia californica (Zhang et al

  Reactive Dicarbonyls and Mitochondrial Dysfunction Although mitochondrial dysfunction has been suggested to be one of the main pathogenic mechanisms in diabetic neuropathy, little is known about the nature and extent of mitochondrial damage resulting from chronic hyperglycemia. Mitochondria funct

  As discussed above, both endogenous and exogenous lesions can lead to adverse health effects [43]. Damaged nucleobases can block DNA replication which is often lethal to cells [44]. The effectiveness of DNA restoration by DNA glycosylases should be closely monitored to gain an insight of the functio

  Conclusion These are exciting times in EAAT research. The discovery and use of the GltPh and GltTk transporters as model systems for EAATs has provided detailed understanding of structure–function aspects of the transporters. Moreover, recent studies into the physiological functions of the transp

  To study the effects of GPR40 at the whole-animal level, GPR40 mice have been generated in two different genetic backgrounds [18], [19]. GPR40 mice from both backgrounds were apparently healthy with no overt signs of metabolic or other abnormalities. As expected, pancreatic islets taken from GPR40 m

  Introduction As per WHO report, in 2014 more than 422 million peoples were living with diabetes and according to International Diabetes Federation, by 2045 this figure would reach 693 million [1,2]. Diabetes, a fast growing major health problem, is common chronic, metabolic disease characterized by

  2021-09-28

  

  Expression and translocation of GLUT4 are regulated by various mechanisms including protein kinase C isoforms (PKCs) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signals [22], [23], but the real mechanism that statins alter expression and function of GLUT4 has not been fully identified. It is general
