  The first evidence in supporting the hypothesis that MAS receptors mediate the effects elicited by AT1 antagonists was provided by Iwai et al. (2012). The authors found that AT1 receptors triggers neointima formation after polyethylene-cuff placement around mouse femoral artery by reducing local ACE

  2023-05-30

  

  The inhibition of the exacerbated inflammatory response that follows injury may be an alternative approach to induce a more efficient repair [17,83]. In line with that, 5-LO is one of the most consolidated targets for dampening inflammation, mainly through the therapeutic effects of 5-LO inhibitors

  2023-05-30

  

  The structural analysis of the ASK1 activation segment, which was not phosphorylated in the crystal structure, showed interactions mimicking those found in activated kinases. In addition, the isolated unphosphorylated ASK1-CD is active and able to autophosphorylate itself at three sites, Thr813, Thr

  Since immunoassays cannot specifically quantify each apelin peptide, a more reliable approach, mass spectrometry (MS) has been used recently to quantify and characterize apelin fragments in plasma. Using this technology, Zhen et al. showed that [Pyr-1]-apelin-13 was the major apelin form present in

  In this study, we have generated new FRET reporters to screen all submembrane domains of AT1R for interactions with CaM. We identified a new CaM-binding domain on the receptor’s SMD2 (a.a. 125 – 141), confirmed interactions at SMD4JM (a.a. 309 – 327) and characterized the full interacting domain in

  Materials and methods Results Discussion The novel and central finding of the current study is that endothelial 12/15-LO rather than the monocytic/macrophagic 12/15-LO has a critical role in hyperglycemia-induced leukocyte adhesion and retinal endothelial barrier dysfunction. The following

  Conflict of interest statement Introduction The global prevalence of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is expected to increase to 106 million in 2050 from 30 million in 2010 (Brookmeyer et al., 2007), which will further impose a significant economic burden on health systems and society as a whole (Broo

  Silk, which is a mixture of mainly SF and sericin, has an extensive history in clinical application as a suture material. Unwanted immune reactions to silk sutures observed early on in their application were assigned to the presence of sericin. However, in vitro and in vivo evaluations of pure SF fi

  Numerous studies have reported high glutamate levels in the brains of patients with depression, indicating that the glutamate system plays a crucial role in depression (Sanacora et al., 2004; Kendell et al., 2005; Hashimoto et al., 2007). Furthermore, several clinically effective antidepressant drug

  Despite functional studies demonstrating the role of 5-HT in ureteral contractility, the source of endogenous 5-HT in the ureter is unclear. Since 5-HT-containing enterochromaffin cells, which are present in the gastrointestinal tract, could not be found in the ureter (Nocito et al., 2007, Ripoche,

  Double immunofluorescence staining of Gas6 and Axl with neuronal specific nuclear protein (NeuN), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), and ionized calcium-binding adaptor molecule 1 (Iba-1), demonstrated that Gas6 and Axl are expressed by neurons, astrocytes and microglia/macrophages (Fig. 2).

  In this review, we will present the traditional and actual strategies to study orphan receptors and identify their ligands. An extensive description of the orphan GPCR field has been published in 2013 by Davenport et al. [22]. Therefore, we will focus on the deorphanizations that were reported since

  PD research involves the use of many animal models, which can be categorized into two main types: toxic models—among which the two most widely used are the classical 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) model in rats and the 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) model in mice and monkeys—and gen

  The mechanism governing how mechanotransduction signals regulate a number of genes involved in cartilage hemostasis remains unclarified. Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways are activated by static and dynamic compression of cartilage (31 32). c-Fos/AP-1 is downstream of the MAPK pathway
