  2024-01-19

  

  AR is an enzyme involved in conversion of glucose into sorbitol using NADPH as a cofactor [46]. This AR polyol pathway generates sorbitol accumulation and NADPH depletion. NADPH participates in detoxification via glutathione (GSH) reductase pathway [47]. Therefore, reduction of NADPH attenuates remo

  2024-01-19

  

  Tephrosia purpurea (Linn.) pers, (Fabaceae), a widely growing herbaceous perennial is reported to exhibit significant anti-hyperglycemic activity in animal models [7], [8], [9] as well as able to delay the development of diabetic complications [10], [11]. Recently, we have reported T. purpurea for i

  2024-01-19

  

  The fact that Yoda1 can activate Piezo1 in the absence of other cellular components other than a cell membrane [2], suggests that it may directly interact with and activate Piezo1. However, this does not preclude Yoda1 from interacting and activating non-Piezo channels, particularly in endothelial c

  2024-01-19

  

  The AhR molecule is composed of multiple functional domains [38]. In the N-terminal end, the AhR contains bHLH domain which is involved in DNA binding, dimerization with ARNT and association with chaperone proteins. The PAS domain, which is situated next to the bHLH domain consists of two structural

  2024-01-19

  

  Involvement of Adiponectin in the regulation of imatinib resistance in human CML cells has not been hitherto examined. Therefore, in this study, we first established imatinib-resistant K562 CML cells, and then evaluated the effect of Adiponectin in reversing imatinib resistance. The data presented h

  2024-01-19

  

  By promoting bundling and processive elongation of 78416 filaments and inhibiting association of capping protein with filament barbed ends, Ena/VASP family proteins contribute to the dynamics of lamellipodia and filopodia [41] and maintenance of focal adhesions and tight junctions [42, 43]. Accordi

  Further evidence for ACh/GABA cotransmission had also been observed in the cortex. Extensive axonal arborization from cholinergic BF neurons exists throughout the cortical layers, allowing direct observation of cholinergic synaptic terminals. One study in the visual cortex of cat examined immunolabe

  2024-01-19

  

  Regarding the 5-HT1B receptors, they act as terminal receptors and are involved in the presynaptic regulation of the release of 5-HT. But at spinal level these receptors are principally situated post-synaptically (Sari, 2004). The ability of autoreceptors to regulate extracellular levels of 5-HT dur

  2024-01-19

  

  The H373N mutation in exon 6 has not previously been reported [3], [4], [5], [6]; thus, this mutation appears to be a novel mutation. The functional expression study demonstrated that the H373N mutation results in almost complete loss of enzymatic activity. Thus, it is highly likely that the H373N m

  Results Discussion Autophagy is considered as an important process in physiological and pathological ovarian function. It is related mainly to follicular atresia and CL regression (for review see [20]). However, an involvement in luteal cell survival is also proposed [21], [22]. The present st

  In the last decade, the zebrafish has emerged as a valuable vertebrate model to systematically dissect the genetic underpinnings of both vertebrate heart development and function [8,9], as well as distinct cardiac diseases such as congenital heart disease [10], cardiomyopathies [11,12] and cardiac a

• A third motif involves the toggle switch

  2024-01-19

  

  A third motif involves the toggle switch and consists of the conserved FxxCWxP sequence in TM6 of class A GPCRs (Hofmann et al., 2009, Rosenbaum et al., 2009). Rotamerization of Trp in combination with a kink caused by Pro facilitates the outward movement of TM6 upon activation (Hofmann et al., 2009
