  It is well known that GPCR responsiveness desensitizes after prolonged exposure to agonists through several mechanisms such as receptor phosphorylation, arrestin binding and internalization (Dhami and Ferguson, 2006). Therefore, in the present work we decided to study whether group I-mGluR signaling

  Such responses have led to the idea that elasmobranchs may be glucose intolerant. However, certain species, such as the North Pacific spiny dogfish (Squalus suckleyi; note that the species used in this study was previously referred to as Squalus acanthias but a study by Ebert et al.

  Next, the effects of a phenyl group at the 3- and 4-positions of the furan on GCGR affinity were investigated (). Surprisingly, despite the lack of a 4-phenyl group at the furan, compound exhibited almost the same GCGR affinity as compound . On the other hand, when the phenyl group at the 3-positio

  The SNPs of candidate genes may exert their effect on associated traits through changing of gene expression (Bonafe et al., 2003, Wyszynska-Koko et al., 2006). In agreement, GHSR SNPs were significantly associated with upregulation of this gene in the pituitary gland of GG/GG chickens. The GHRL/GHSR

  Recent evidence indicates that prolonged vasoconstriction of conductance and resistance arteries involves VSMCs C34 polymerization, through activation of small GTPases [4] and a subsequently transition to a more solid rheology [5]. Actin polymerization occurs in two steps, nucleation and elongation.

  Although our knowledge of how FAs affect GLP-1-producing L-cells is sparse and incomplete, increased intracellular ceramide [6], ER stress [12], and increased production of ROS [9] are indicated mediators of the lipotoxicity induced by SFA (16:0). However, the role for/interaction between these medi

  In this study, we intended to explore the efficacy of artesunate on liver fibrosis and further clarify its potential molecular mechanism.

  Factor Xa, an enzyme in the coagulation cascade, has recently been identified as having a role in inflammation, generating interest in factor Xa inhibitors as anti-inflammatory agents beyond their established use as anticoagulants [, , , ].

  Next, we were interested in replacing the ketobenzimidazole fragment of our inhibitors with a noncarbonyl bearing heterocycle. We reasoned that if we could replace the carbonyl while maintaining comparable FAAH inhibition, it would provide evidence for a noncovalent mechanism of action. Thus, we eva

  Compounds that induce exocytosis in cultured Thiomyristoyl include Ca2+-dependent [14] or Ca2+-independent [15] mechanisms. Ca2+-dependent exocytosis releases soluble enzyme content from lysosomes [16] operating by increasing the cytosolic concentration of Ca2+[13] by recruiting extracellular Ca2+[

  The present findings demonstrate for the first time in immature rats that hippocampal infusion of ET-1 results in a rapid and long-lasting decrease in regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) and oxygen saturation (pO2). These data are in accord with the results of studies and adult animals, which have s

  Septic shock, a condition where endothelium-derived substances most likely play an important role, is often accompanied by cardiac dysfunction, pulmonary hypertension, systemic hypotension and impaired oxygen utilisation with systemic acidosis (Vincent, 1998).

  Upon LPS stimulation, ERK and STAT3 signaling pathways were activated in a time-dependent manner, and the phosphorylation of Y705 occurred later than that of S727 (Supplementary Fig. S5B). STAT3 is known to be phosphorylated on serine 727 (S727) by the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase pathway
