  Previously, we have shown that ghrelin and cannabinoids stimulate hypothalamic AMPK activity (Kola et al., 2005). In contrast, both the orexigenic compounds have inhibitory effects on AMPK activity in the liver and visceral fat (Kola et al., 2005). In this study, we were able to reproduce our previo

  These data suggest that the dehydration of the SSRBCs induced by RANTES might result of an activation of the Gardos channel mediated by the chemokine receptor DARC. However, direct evidence of Gardos channel activation by chemokines in Duffy-positive SSRBCs leading to cell dehydration has not been e

  The orientation of the immobilized enzyme may affect its activity and stability and therefore the final biocatalyst performance. Since proteins present areas more prone to unfolding in their surface or near to it [36], the immobilization through these areas may improve the final biocatalyst stabilit

  Prior to proceeding to the main tests, essential conditions were optimized. At first, we tested whether the parameters that were successful in inducing LacZ gene for the production of β-galactosidase enzymes in E. coli culture system in our previous study would be sufficient to induce LacZ gene in t

  Apoptosis via Fas/FasL system has been evidenced to play a role in the pathogenesis of many diseases [26], [27], [28], [29], [30], [31], [32], [33], [34]. Along with these, Fas/FasL system has an important role in progressive renal disease and organ rejection in renal, cardiac and liver transplanta

  Wolf et al. (2016) then proceed to interrogate the mechanism by which NAG activates the NLRP3 inflammasome. When examining potential triggers previously implicated in NLRP3 activation, they found that both PGN and NAG trigger appearance of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) in the cytosol, which led them to

  Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2/neu, also known as CerbB-2, or ERBB-2) is a proto-oncogene located on chromosome 17q21, which encodes a transmembrane protein with tyrosine kinase activity, and belongs to the HER receptor family (EGFR, named also HER1, HER3, and HER4) [6]. HER2 is invo

  Given the overexpression of HO-1 in some tumors, such as CML, and its potential involvement in chemoresistance to classical chemotherapeutic agents, compounds 4 and 8f were tested in CML cell lines resistant to IM, a classical TK inhibitor used in CML. Compounds 4 and 8f, in combination with IM, sho

  It is known that changes in cGMP levels are positively correlated with plant adaptation to environmental stresses. It seems that a novel group of moonlighting kinases with GC activity is particularly involved in response to biotic stress. It was shown that danger-associated molecular pattern (DAMPs)

  Selected GSNOR inhibitors were assessed for potential off-target activity with a panel of 54 transmembrane and soluble receptors, ion channels, and monoamine transporters. Off-target effects were estimated from the percent inhibition of receptor radio-ligand binding in the presence of 10μM of test c

  Introduction Epigenetic alterations play an important role in carcinogenesis. Aberrant promoter CpG island hypermethylation causes transcriptional gene silencing [1], and has been documented for a number of genes in prostate cancer (PCA) [2]. Histone modifications are also important regulators of t

  Historically, pharmacological investigations have been carried out by first identifying a biological response to a ligand, and then subsequently using that ligand to identify the receptor(s) responsible for the response (Wilson et al., 1998). However, this approach needed revision with the discovery

  (R,R′)-MNF is a unique bitopic agent with selective and potent β2AR agonistic and GPR55 inhibitory properties [10], [11] that are independently associated with the drug's anti-mitotic and anti-tumorigenic actions. In 1321N1, U118MG, and melanoma cell lines, (R,R′)-MNF activation of the β2AR decrease

  Ning et al. showed that LPC 18:1 appeared to increase insulin release through both GPR119-dependent and -independent mechanisms (Ning et al., 2008). In our study, we have shown that not only GPR119 but also GPR40 and GPR55 participate in LPC-stimulated insulin secretion (Fig. 4, Fig. 5) and target p
