  Adenosine is a ubiquitous homeostatic purine nucleoside that accumulates extracellularly in response to metabolic stresses such as hypoxia and inflammation. Activation of either G protein-coupled adenosine receptors (ARs; A1R, A2AR, A2BR, and A3R) by extracellular adenosine can modulate cell signali

  2023-03-01

  

  Introduction Adenosine kinase (ADK; ATP: adenosine 5′-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.20), is isolated from yeast cells by Kornberg for the first time in 1951 [1]. ADK belongs to the ribokinase protein family and is one of the most abundant nucleoside kinases in mammalian tissues [2,3]. As the first i

  In this article, we have outlined the increasing, as yet still circumstantial evidence that the 6TM domains of bacterial ACs might operate as receptors for as yet unknown ligands. Intriguingly, several architectural arguments are also applicable to the 6TM domains of mammalian membrane-bound ACs (mA

  2023-03-01

  

  An alternative to the agonist or antagonist potential in drug discovery is the positive allosteric modulator (PAM) approach, which can augment the normal processes of neurotransmission as opposed to directly replacing or antagonizing them. PAMs are thought to bind to sites that are distinct from the

• Wound healing without blastema formation

  2023-02-25

  

  Wound healing without blastema formation causes partial restoration of lost tissue, and gives rise to fibrotic scars. Healing by fibrotic scarring rather than by regeneration leads to tissue dysfunction, and can place a huge burden for the health of the animal [4]. Therefore, understanding the mole

  2023-02-25

  

  APJ is mainly coupled to PTX-sensitive Gi/o proteins [33], and thus, it is associated with the inhibition of adenylyl cyclase and the activations of PI3K/Akt signaling and MAPKs signaling pathways [23], [54], [55], [56]. In a previous study, apelin stimulations of the PI3K/Akt and/or the MAPK pathwa

  2023-02-25

  

  Thiol are reduced by two major redox systems, glutathione/glutaredoxin (GRX) and thioredoxin (TRX), which have been extensively studied in plants [13], [14], [15]. Glutathione, a thiol-containing tripeptide, exists in a reduced (GSH) or an oxidized form (GSSG). It has a major role as a redox buffer.

  The initial demonstration of the potential of MALDI-TOF MS for testing antifungal susceptibility of pathogenic fungi came from a proof-of-concept study by Marinach et al. [31] who monitored the changes of the proteome of C. albicans pdtc exposed to different concentrations of fluconazole. Using a r

  Our results add to previously published data on the contribution of ALDH3A1 to the optical properties of the cornea. Specifically, the study by Nees et al. (2002) was among the first to examine whether ALDH3A1 serves as a structural component in the cornea and similarly to lens crystallins. Their ex

  However, although in vitro studies in heterologous systems have provided very important indications of potential novel pharmacology, the studies with endogenous receptors in native tissues are essential to provide evidence for GPCR heteromerization in vivo and to confirm its physiological relevance.

  We investigated the role of ABT 702 treatment in MAPKinase activation in mouse microglia in vitro. In Fig. 7D immunocytochemistry results revealed that Iba1 and p-ERK1/2 co-localized in LPS induced mouse microglia. In our previous study we have reported that LPS activates ERK1/2 phosphorylation (Ahm

  As also found by Stolarski et al. [14], inclusion of N2O in the model is successful in reducing the effect of dynamics [13] in the lower stratosphere in the Northern Hemisphere (30–60°N in our case). The inclusion of N2O also decreased the error bars on the trend values, but the trend values still c

  Axl has been reported to mediate cell-cell adhesion and sphere-growth [11], [18] and to be important for metastasis to secondary organs [12], [14], [20]. We found an Axl-dependent CCRCC-ability of sphere-formation and repopulation after non-adhesive growth. Axl-inhibited cells could not attach to ea
