  Platycodon grandiflorum is a member of the genus Platycodon and is commonly known as balloon flower. In East Asia, P. grandiflorum is used for the treatment of asthma, coughs, inflammatory diseases, pulmonary tuberculosis, and diabetes (Takagi and Lee, 1972). Furthermore, recent studies have reporte

  To facilitate the development of novel diagnostic and therapeutic interventions in NASH, a plethora of animal models have been used to identify molecular targets that are involved in the onset and progression of NASH. In view of recent advances in the understanding of the pathogenesis of NASH and pr

  2022-05-04

  

  The use of HIV-1 peptide epitope-based vaccines is safer and cheaper than live or inactivated vaccines [8]. However, peptide epitope vaccines could show poor immunogenicity and have poor uptake by APCs [9]. Nevertheless, nanocarrier-based delivery platforms have been demonstrated to enhance the pept

  2022-05-04

  

  GnRH-ant have been designed to obtain pharmacological compounds to block the pituitary–gonadal axis without the undesirable flare effect exerted by GnRH itself or by the GnRH-a (see Section 2.2). GnRH-ant competitively block the binding of GnRH to GnRHRs (Schally, 1999; Tan & Bukulmez, 2011); they p

  The typical pharmacophore for GPR40 agonists contains four parts: head (acid moiety), central (phenyl ring), linker and tail (aromatic carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring) [20]. On the other hand, the chemical features that are required for the PPARγ agonists include hydrogen bond donors and acceptors

  Results and discussion Conclusions TZDs represent a well-studied group of antidiabetic agents. Based on previous observations of the ability of some TZDs to activate FFAR1, we designed five scaffolds consisting of the TZD head, a linker, and a carefully selected privileged structure. For the p

  When testing the novel DA-CH3 peptide, it was found that it is superior to liraglutide in the MPTP mouse model of PD at a dose of 25 nmol/kg ip once-daily for 7 days. In the Rotarod and grip strength assessment, DA-CH3 was superior to liraglutide in reversing the MPTP–induced motor impairment. Dopam

  2022-05-04

  

  LXRs are physiological regulators of cholesterol and lipid metabolism and influence glucose metabolism. In addition, they have been shown to repress transcription of certain pro-inflammatory genes (Jakobsson et al., 2012; Ogawa et al., 2005; Terasaka et al., 2005). Thus, LXRs can either activate or

  At the heart of ferroptosis is a process of lethal lipid peroxidation, which is the oxidative addition of molecular oxygen (O2) to lipids, such as polyunsaturated fatty acyl tails in phospholipids. The first descriptions of such enzymatic reactions were in 1955 by Peterson and colleagues [50] and Ro

  2022-04-29

  

  The subcellular redistribution of some metabolic enzymes is dynamic and responsive to metabolic conditions. In the absence of glucose, Glucokinase (GK) is bound to its regulatory protein in the nucleus of the hepatocyte and translocates to the cytoplasm when sugar levels increase [12]. Muscle glycog

  In regards to animals, several studies have reported the peroxisomal localization of FPS (Krisans et al., 1994, Olivier et al., 2000, Kovacs et al., 2007). Transfections of mammalian cells with the rat short FPS isoform followed by immunodetection localized the enzyme to the peroxisome (Olivier et a

  In conclusion, the present study shows that the endothelin system is of importance in the cardiopulmonary vascular pathophysiology of porcine endotoxin shock. In this model, combination of a selective endothelin ETA and a selective endothelin ETB receptor antagonist markedly improved pulmonary circu
