  2024-04-28

  

  Two cell-surface trans-membrane receptors have been identified for adiponectin, AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 [21], and adiponectin action is known to signal through these receptors and the docking protein APPL1 [22]. In muscle and liver cells, signal transduction involves the phosphorylation and activation o

  2024-04-28

  

  Our initial approach to identify hits was two-pronged and included a high-throughput screening (HTS) campaign of the OSI LY2784544 library as well as a virtual screening (VS) campaign, utilizing a publically available crystal structure of ACK1 (PDB code: ). A tolerance for protein flexibility was i

  2024-04-28

  

  Introduction Lysophosphatidic SKL2001 (LPA) is a key, serum-borne phospholipid, regulating a number of cellular processes such as proliferation, migration and differentiation through its interaction with G-protein coupled receptors. LPA receptor signaling has been implicated in several disease stat

  In bacteria (Hügler et al., 2007, Kanao et al., 2001), a glaucophyte alga (Ma et al., 2001), green algae/land plants (Fatland et al., 2002), and filamentous fungi (Nowrousian et al., 2000), ACL enzyme activity requires ACLA, and ACLB (referred to here as dual-subunit ACL, or dsACL) (Kanao et al., 20

  2024-04-27

  

  The surprising finding of our study is that human M1 macrophages stimulated by LPS express ALOX15B to high levels. So far 12/15-lipoxygenase activity was only reported for IL-4 stimulated anti-phlogistic M2 macrophages [9] but not for the classically activated M1 macrophages. Our data suggest that s

  2024-04-27

  

  Fig. 1 summarizes the oxidative metabolism of arachidonic nmda receptor by lipoxygenases cyclooxygenases and cytochrome P450. Lipoxygenases in humans are expressed in a tissue-specific fashion: 5-LOX is mainly expressed in leukocytes, 12-LOX in platelets, and 15-LOX-1 in reticulocytes, eosinophils

  2024-04-27

  

  We also measured macrophage infiltration and CLS presence in peri-gonadal AT from db/db mice and controls. CLS are morphological features within AT that are accurate indicators of adipocyte death and macrophage infiltration [56]. An earlier study showed that CLS macrophages account for >90% of the t

  2024-04-27

  

  The apoptosis-promoting Bcl-2 family includes BH3-only proteins (e.g., Bim, Bid and Bad) and multiple-domain proteins (e.g., Bax and Bak). At the time of apoptosis stimulation (e.g., DNA damage), only the BH3-only protein is activated, directly or indirectly promoting Bax/Bak oligomerization, changi

  2024-04-27

  

  The enzyme Arginase 1 (ARG1) plays a role in the hepatic urea cycle by hydrolyzing L-arginine to L-ornithine and urea [13]. In the context of macrophages and MDSCs, ARG1 expression redirects L-arginine metabolism to abolish cytotoxic nitric oxide production [14], suppress T-cell function [15], [16],

  2024-04-27

  

  Arginase deficiency is a rare urea cycle disorder with hyperargininemia and profound neurological impairment as hallmark features. Arginase-1-deficient mouse models have been created, and they exhibit a profound lethal phenotype approximately 2 weeks after birth in the global knockout (KO) mice or a

  2024-04-27

  

  Apelin is a peptide hormone and an endogenous ligand for a G protein-coupled receptor named APJ [7], [8], and apelin and APJ are widely expressed in human organs including hypothalamus, heart, lungs, kidneys, adipose tissue, muscles, and others [9]. Apelin is initially synthesized as a 77-amino-acid

  Finally, the comparison between data obtained by antioxidant assays in in vitro cultured cells [11], [12] and in liposomes has disclosed the possibility to choose more confidently “the better phenolipid” of a series of fatty acids esters antioxidant derivatives. Looking at the physical parameters th

  2024-04-27

  

  Introduction Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a complex neurological disorder characterized by a progressive dementia resulting from synapse failure (Selkoe, 2002, Tanzi, 2005). The amyloid hypothesis maintains that the pivotal event in AD is the production of amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides following the prote

  The functional significance of the cap residues with regard to the established role of PfA-M1 in hemoglobin catabolism in the food vacuole is a key question that is difficult to address with in vitro studies. We note that three of the dipeptide substrates used in our study are found in the sequences

  Estudos de biomarcadores mostram que as concentrações de proteína amiloide no LCR estão inversamente relacionadas com o grau de doença de Alzheimer. No entanto, quer as placas amiloides quer a diminuição da proteína amiloide podem ser encontradas em idosos sem clínica de disfunção cognitiva, pelo qu
