  In various models, histamine has been shown to induce chemotaxis. This was first appreciated over 40 years’ ago in studies with eosinophils (Clark et al., 1977). At that time, only histamine H1 and histamine H2 receptors were recognized and studies with ligands to these receptors indicated that neit

  Materials and methods Results Discussion Numerous studies have identified important roles for HIF-1α in cellular function and dysfunction through its transcriptional activity [4]. A few studies have reported that HIF-1α is translocated to the mitochondria in human and mouse cancer cell line

  HOs can be found in both plants and animals and they are evolutionarily conserved proteins [8]. There are two HO isoenzymes: inducible heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and constitutive heme oxygenase-2 (HO-2) encoded by different genes [9,10]. Biosynthesis of a stress-inducible HO-1 can be triggered by a var

  2021-12-07

  

  One of pathogenesis of COPD is oxidant/antioxidant imbalance. Indeed, it is well known that chronic tobacco smoking is a major risk factor for the development of COPD, and a defect in the detoxification of reactive species produced by cigarette smoke may predispose smokers to airflow obstruction and

  After ischemia, expression of transcription factors, including products of immediate early genes, stress proteins and neurotrophic factors are also altered in CA1 neurons78, 79. These proteins are potential candidates for downregulating of GluR2 expression by reducing mRNA transcription or stability

  2021-12-06

  

  Two types of processes, intrinsic and extrinsic, contribute synergistically to the age-related change on structural integrity and physiological function of the skin (Farage, Miller, Elsner, & Maibach, 2008). Intrinsic aging arise from genetically programmed cell aging, normal metabolic activities, a

  2021-12-06

  

  In recent years, it was discovered in animals that certain types of non-apoptotic cell death are strictly dependent on iron and ROS. The term ‘ferroptosis’, derived from the Greek word ‘ptosis’ (falling) and the Latin word ‘ferrum’ (iron), is coined to describe such cell death phenomena. Cytoplasmic

  2021-12-06

  

  HO-1 acted as an intracellular defender against oxidative stress-induced cell damage. To elucidate the effects of HO-1 in ropivacaine-induced cytotoxicity in neuronal cells, HO-1 activity was inhibited using a specific HO-1 inhibitor zinc protoporphyrin, ZnPP. Our results indicate that ZnPP treatmen

  The hypothesis that genes involved in type 2 diabetes evolved under changing selective pressures and may carry the signature of natural selection motivated us to describe patterns of sequence variation at CAPN10 and GPR35 in human populations. An initial population genetics study reported an unusual

  2021-12-06

  

  The bFGF-induced upregulation of both GR and MR levels observed in our study raises a question regarding whether the simultaneous augmentation of the two receptors has a physiological and/or medical significance. It has been suggested that MR stimulates intracellular signaling pathways to minimize s

  Considerable evidence links sustained GCG administration to the reduction of food intake, enhancement of energy expenditure and weight loss in rodent and human studies [16], [17], [18]. Moreover, patients presenting with GCG-producing tumors frequently manifest severe weight loss, through mechanisms

  A significant contribution to the discovery of novel Hh inhibitors is given by natural compounds [11,17,22,31,32]. The first Hh inhibitor ever discovered has been Cyclopamine, a steroidal alkaloid isolated from plants of the Veratrum species [13,33]. Subsequently, many natural compounds belonging to

  Recently, unimolecular, multi-functional peptides that combine GLP-1RA activity with TRAM 39 mg and/or GIP activity have been suggested as new therapeutic agents for glycaemic and weight control. In rodents, dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonists achieve significantly better glucose control and weigh

  The novel Ghsr-IRES-Cre knock-in mouse line allowed us to deconstruct the involvement of MBH GHSR-expressing neurons in mediating food intake responses using chemogenetic modulation of their neuronal activity. In our studies, hM4Di DREADD virus injections to inhibit GHSR neurons targeted several nuc
