  2020-01-08

  

  Prostaglandin E receptor subtype 4 (EP4) is a transmembrane G-coupled protein receptor activated by prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). EP4 activation exerts anti-inflammatory effects in adipose tissue by dampening the levels of inflammatory chemokines [12]. In the mouse, EP4 deficiency aggravates fragmentatio

  Our data demonstrate that MPO increased ETRB mRNA expression, which translated into an increase in ETRB protein expression, which proved to be dependent on the enzyme\'s catalytic activity. Of importance, addition of MPO was sufficient to increase ETRB expression, revealing that endogenous (endothel

  In summary, our data show a novel mechanism: CPD-mediated autoprocessing of C difficile toxins regulates their proinflammatory activities. Thus, our study provides a new understanding of the molecular mechanisms of the pathogenesis of C difficile toxins and insights into designing new therapeutics a

  2020-01-08

  

  Recently, a sandwich-cultured hepatocyte model has been proved to be a valuable in vitro system that maintains specific hepatic cytomorphology and function relevant to drug metabolism, disposition and toxicity, and thus, closely resembles the in vivo setting. This hepatocyte model was recognized as

  2020-01-08

  

  In the preclinical evaluation of CRF1 receptor antagonists, effects were mainly focused on the regulation of hyperactivated HPA axis and the modulation of anxiety or depressive-like behaviors in CRF challenge [16], [17], [18] or stress models [16], [19], [20]. However, it remains to be concluded whe

  2020-01-08

  

  Two nutrient-sensing pathways, the cAMP-protein kinase A (PKA) pathway and the target of rapamycin complex 1 (TORC1) pathway, are implicated in Msn2/4 regulation. Under non-stress conditions, Msn2 localizes in the cytoplasm and is inactivated by both PKA-dependent phosphorylation of the nuclear loca

  2020-01-08

  

  Therapeutic options targeting intrahepatic resistance are very limited. Theoretically, the NO-cGMP pathway may be influenced at several sites. Yet, most strategies did not reach clinical practice or yielded disappointing results, such as activators of soluble guanylate cyclase [14], NO releasing der

  2020-01-08

  

  Two isoforms of intracellular ER, ERα, and ERβ, after binding to estrogens and translocate to the nucleus, activate some transcription factors and signaling pathways. The deregulation of estrogenic pathways can elevate transcriptional activity contributed to the development of cancer. Expression of

  In a larger study of 22 patients with nondiabetic proteinuric chronic kidney disease, BQ-123 produced significant natriuresis, resulting from increased renal blood flow. In addition, ETA antagonism reduced blood pressure and proteinuria, and, a new finding, decreased arterial stiffness. However, in
