  2021-09-18

  

  Etoposide (VP-16), a semisynthetic podophyllotoxin derivative agent, is widely used as a chemotherapic treatment for many cancers (Hande, 1998). VP-16 has been known that its activity is mediated by the interaction with topoisomerase II (an ATP-dependent nuclear enzyme) which regulates DNA topology

  2021-09-17

  

  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

  2021-09-17

  

  Introduction GPR119 is a class A type of G Protein coupled receptor, which is expressed primarily in pancreatic β-cells and the K and L Manidipine 2HCl of the gastrointestinal tract [1], [2], [3]. Activation of GPR119 promotes secretion of incretins such as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) in the i

  2021-09-17

  

  It may seem counterintuitive that a lymphocyte which is unable to proliferate could have neoplastic potential since the very definition of neoplasia is one of autonomous clonal expansion of a cell. The lack of co-stimulatory molecules CD27 and CD28 can potentially be overcome by activating NK cell r

  2021-09-17

  

  In this study we provide biochemical and immunohistochemical evidence for the localization of the glycine transporter GLYT1 in synaptic vesicles. Previously, it was thought that GLYT1 was exclusively a glial protein (Zafra et al., 1995a). However, due to a partial discrepancy between mRNA and protei

  2021-09-17

  

  Trypanosomatid GLO2 enzymes are monomeric and contain a zinc–iron binuclear metal center (Irsch and Krauth-Siegel, 2004, Silva et al., 2008), similar to all other glyoxalases II. As mentioned, in T. brucei there are two GLO2 genes but only one encodes an enzyme with glyoxalase II activity (Irsch and

  2021-09-17

  

  The β-lactam compounds, including ceftriaxone (CEF), have shown to attenuate drug-seeking in several drugs of abuse including methamphetamine [31], cocaine [32,33], nicotine [34] and morphine [35]. Moreover, in our laboratory, we have shown that CEF can reduce chronic alcohol drinking via upregulati

  We confirmed a decrease in extracellular glutamate uptake and the presence of efflux in an endothelial cell model of oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD), which effectively simulates the inefficient energy supply after brain injury [15], and analysed the function of endothelial EAATs and explored the ro

  Materials and methods Results Discussion In this study, we demonstrated, for the first time, that manipulation of AKR1D1 expression and activity is able to regulate glucocorticoid availability in liver and non-liver cell lines. AKR1D1 over-expression leads to increased glucocorticoid clear

  2021-09-17

  

  Different responses in feed intake have been noticed following administration of exogenous GHRL (peripherally or centrally) depending on animal species. In mammals, injection of GHRL stimulates food intake (orexigenic effect) (reviewed in Kaiya et al., 2013b). In contrast, in domestic birds, exogeno

  2021-09-17

  

  A model substance often used in the studies of oxidative processes in erythrocytes is tert-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BHP), which, being lipophilic, passes easily across the erythrocyte membrane [9]. In erythrocytes treated with t-BHP (0.1–3mM) for less than 1h, a dramatic decline in the reduced glutath

  The modulation of the activity of the Gardos channel by the chemokines IL-8 and RANTES was observed in the Duffy-positive but not in the Duffy-negative SSRBCs. This finding is consistent with the previous observation on normal red blood GW1929 (AARBCs) described by Rivera et al. [10]. Altogether, t

  Discussion The model of a NVU described by Mathias et al. (2018) has been implemented on the macro scale (see Kenny et al. (2018b)) via a 2D cerebral tissue slice coupled to a vascular tree. In particular, further communication within the tissue slice has been implemented via extracellular ion el

  Somatostatin analogues are among the first peptide-based drugs used in cancer imaging and therapy (for review see Reubi, 2003). Treatment of tumors by the use of peptide analogues labeled with cytotoxic agents acting via specific receptors is also under investigation for neuropeptide Y (Koglin and B

  2021-09-17

  

  FXR agonists represent an attractive class of drugs for patients with PFIC. Synthetic and semi-synthetic FXR agonists, with higher affinity and potency to activate FXR, have been successfully tested in animal models of cholestasis. In these murine models, the semi-synthetic steroidal FXR ligand obet
