  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

  It is apparent from the data in that none of the ligands exhibits significant toxicity as determined by the viability of human embryonic kidney (HEK 293) cells at a concentration of 100 μM. It is also apparent from the data in and that a number of the ligands inhibit the HIV-1 IN enzyme. However,

  Introduction Stroke is the second cause of death worldwide and the first cause of acquired motor disability in adults [1], [2]. In sub-Saharan Africa, stroke is the first cause of admission in neurology departments [3]. In Cameroon, the in-hospital mortality of stroke is estimated at 26.8% [4]. A

  2022-03-07

  

  Histamine and glycaemia Histamine is involved in a wide variety of pathophysiological events mostly related to the inflammatory response through four receptors, namely H1-4Rs. The first studies of mitoxantrone and diabetes date back to the 1950s. Since that time the involvement of histamine in d

  The medicinal properties of guanidine derivatives are also of great interest due to their diverse anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, and anti-cancer, activities (C and D). Guanidine-containing drugs, such as -iodobenzylguanidine and methylglyoxal bis(guanylhydrazone), were shown several

  Based on the in vitro findings summarized here, we posited that, in the intact brain, release of ROS from iron-laden astrocytes to the local neuropil elicits oxidative damage and degeneration of indigent dopaminergic projections and other vulnerable neuronal elements (Schipper, 2001). Of particular

  Resistance to targeted therapy The idea of treating HER2 mutant tumors with specific therapies is relatively new and, as a consequence, little is known about the potential mechanisms of resistance to anti-HER2 agents in this setting. Primary resistance may be mediated by the presence of on-target

  2022-03-07

  

  GCIPs are highly conserved Ca2+-binding proteins first discovered in the frog [42] and later in teleost [9]. With regard to gene structure, sequence conservation, and function, GCIPs are evolutionarily related to the GCAPs. The GCIP genes have acquired an additional intron in the N-terminal region w

  To investigate if such an effect is observed in native GlyT1, we introduced S605D and S605A mutations into GlyT1 and transfected these DNA constructs into N2a cells. For an internal control of calpain cleavage, we also introduced the first 100 amino-acids of the rat GlyT2N terminus upstream of the m

  The association between mental disorders and smoking was firmly established, and their inter-relationship was due to the reciprocal causal effects (Tjora et al., 2014). Previous research found that negative affect and the urge to smoke as well as the urge to smoke and nicotine dependence had signifi

  After the origin of the family of genes for receptors for peptides similar to glucagon, the genes have not remained static. Not only have their sequences evolved, but also like peptides similar to glucagon (Irwin, 2001, Irwin, 2009, Irwin, 2012, Ng et al., 2010, Hwang et al., 2013), the numbers of g
