  2022-01-11

  

  Cut proteins have five evolutionarily conserved domains. These include a homeodomain, three Cut repeats, and a coiled coil structure. The cut repeats, called CR1, CR2, and CR3, are composed of 70 amino acids, and, along with the homeodomain, are each capable of binding DNA. Mammalian cut proteins fu

  Two kind systems are currently available to assess the nutritional status of cancer patients, one is largely based on some subjective parameters, the other is totally based on the objective parameters. For score systems largely based on some subjective parameters, like Nutritional Risk Screening Sco

  2022-01-11

  

  Mice lacking S-nitrosoglutathione reductase (GSNOR), a denitrosylase that regulates S-nitrosylation, have increased levels of S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) and exhibit nitrosative stress. GSNO is in equilibrium with protein S-nitrosylation in cells, and GSNOR controls the cellular concentration of pro

  2022-01-11

  

  PBI-4050 is an agonist of GPR40 and acts as an antagonist or inverse agonist of GPR84. It cannot be excluded that other targets besides GPR40 and GPR84 could be implicated in the mechanism of action of PBI-4050 and could be explored in future studies. However, the present study, and in particular th

  2022-01-11

  

  GSK-3 can function in regulating insulin signaling and glucose metabolism. Inactivation of GSK-3 activity results in dephosphorylation and activation of GS that leads to improved glucose tolerance. However, there are additional mechanisms that can lead to increases in GS activity and improve insulin

  Decreasing GSK-3β activity has therapeutic benefits in animal model of colitis [45] and traumatic Candesartan injury [46] and ischemia/reperfusion injury [47,48]. In brain, activation of GSK-3β promotes Aβ toxicity by elevating APP expression and its amyloidogenic cleavage, and by dysregulating Aβ

  2022-01-11

  

  GPR119 is a class A GPCR expressed on pancreatic β-cells and certain enteroendocrine Biotin-azide which upon activation with an agonist, increases insulin secretion in response to rising glucose levels. Mechanistically, this insulinotropic effect is bifurcated involving both GPR119-mediated β-cel

  2022-01-10

  

  In the liver, ghrelin has opposite effects to insulin on the expression of the enzyme PEPCK, thereby promoting gluconeogenesis and also causing a decrease in glucose uptake and fatty Atglistatin oxidation (Rigault et al., 2007). Ghrelin also stimulates hepatic lipogenesis de novo in a GH-independent

  Gap junctions, hemichannels and connexins: Molecular characteristics and function Cell-to-cell communication is of extreme importance in tissue homeostasis, which is maintained by transmission of regulatory signals (Fig. 1). Intercellular communication via gap junctions (GJs) represents one of th

  The present data suggest that the decrease of liver BAs was mainly due to the decrease of hepatic BAs synthesis because the BA synthetic enzymes Cyp7a1, Cyp7b1 and Cyp8b1 were markedly reduced. The increase may also be due to the increase of hepatic BAs efflux, because the liver BA efflux transporte

  This study introduces a mouse model carrying the point mutation R258W in Ffar1, which abolishes the stimulation of insulin secretion in response to long chain fatty acids. The minimal genetic alteration mirrors the human situation and has the advantage over conventional knockout/congenic mouse model
