  Ketone body metabolism and neuronal excitability One of the best examples of the close connection between metabolism and neuronal excitability is illustrated by the effect of ketone bodies on epileptic seizures. One third of patients suffering from epileptic seizures do not respond to conventiona

  Opportunities The ever-expanding diabetes market is one of the driving forces for the development of new antidiabetes drugs. Diabetes mellitus influenced an estimated 371 million humans during 2012 worldwide, and this figure is projected to increase in every country. According to International Di

  2021-12-24

  

  As part of our discovery efforts searching for small molecule GPR119 agonists, we analyzed active pharmacophores of known agonists from the literature, and found that -methylsulfonylphenyl and substituted 4-hydroxyl piperidine are common fragments. In our initial efforts, we linked these two fragmen

• The HIV genome encodes for a variety

  2021-12-24

  

  The HIV-1 genome encodes for a variety of viral proteins necessary for target cell entry and viral replication. gp120 is an HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein that mediates viral particle entry by binding to cell surface receptor CD4 and co-receptors CXCR4 and/or CCR5 depending on viral tropism. While CXCR

  2021-12-24

  

  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

• The structure and activity of GLUT

  2021-12-24

  

  The structure and activity of GLUT1 has been most intensively studied in erythrocytes, in which this transporter makes up 10–20% of membrane protein content. Carruthers has shown that, while GLUT1 can exist and transport glucose as monomers, dimers and tetramers, in erythrocytes GLUT1 exists predomi

  2021-12-24

  

  Accordingly, a bioassay-guided approach was been used to study the bioactive compounds in VAS contribute to the α-glucosidase inhibitory and antioxidant activity. The 95% ethanol extraction of VAS was successively partitioned with petroleum ether, ethyl acetate and n-butanol. Ethyl acetate fraction

  2021-12-24

  

  Gap junction intercellular communication (GJIC) facilitates the exchange of ions, metabolites, Ca2+, inositol phosphates, and/or cyclic nucleotides of up to 1.8 kD in size between 9292 through contact-dependent mechanisms [3,4]. Oocyte growth and development (as depicted in Fig. 1) depends, at leas

• Analysis of the i motif structures during biased unfolding

  2021-12-23

  

  Analysis of the i-motif structures during biased unfolding of G-quadruplexes leads to the conclusion that at acidic pH the i-motif is absolutely unaffected by that process. The hydrogen bonds within the i-motif are intact (Fig. 3D) and they only fluctuate around mean values. On the other hand, the i

• The molecular target of N BPs is farnesyl diphosphate

  2021-12-23

  

  The molecular target of N-BPs is farnesyl diphosphate synthase (FPPS), a crucial enzyme at the branch point of cholesterol and isoprenoid synthesis in the mevalonate pathway [5]. Because they bind calcium ions, N-BPs accumulate quickly in the skeleton and are internalised by osteoclasts, leading to

  2021-12-23

  

  The PI3K/AKT pathway is known to affect cell cycle, survival, and apoptosis (Yu et al., 2006; Park et al., 2008). After phosphorylation by AKT, the cytoplasmic apoptotic protein bad (bcl-xl/bcl-2) cannot be transferred to the mitochondria and dissociates from the inhibition protein bcl-2 and bcl-xl,

  2021-12-23

  

  Besides its carcinogenic role, WTAP was also discovered to participate in several physical processes in normal cells. As previously reported, WTAP was involved in cell proliferation, survival, apoptosis [7,29,30], eye development [8] and embryonic development [7] owing to its complex function in tra

  2021-12-23

  

  WT1 associated protein (WTAP), a nuclear protein, is first identified by Little [6] who noticed its specific interaction with WT1. Besides several essential physiological processes, such as mRNA stabilization [7], eye development [8], m6A methylation [9], mRNA alternative splicing [10] and K-Ras(G12

• TRRAP participates in embryonic development

  2021-12-23

  

  TRRAP participates in embryonic development, as demonstrated by its binding with proteins regulating the Notch signaling pathway in fruit fly, the Ras signaling pathway in C. elegans, or the Wnt signaling pathway in 293T cells. Therefore we suspect that TRRAP variants, more especially those falling
