  2022-03-22

  

  Obestatin, synthetized mainly in the gastrointestinal tract, participates in the regulation of metabolic functioning at both central and peripheral levels (food intake, pancreatic activity or/and adipocytes proliferation) (Granata et al., 2008; Li et al., 2011). It is involved in the complex gut-bra

  Introduction Edible bird's nest (EBN), known as the health and precious food, is produced from the saliva secretion of several different swiftlet species. Researches have shown the nutritional value of the EBN with the containing of glycoproteins, carbohydrates, essential amino acids, minerals an

  2022-03-22

  

  PTMs have been shown to influence transporter kinetics, both directly and indirectly (Xu & You, 2017). They do not just regulate the innate structure-function relationship driven by a transporter's global architecture, but rather are also able to regulate this relationship down to the resolution of

  Assuming thus a positive signal for both GLUT1 and GLUT3 in our conditions, a more detailed explanation of the results observed through immunocytochemistry is needed. In this way, it must be reminded that syncytiotrophoblasts compose the outer layer of the trophoblast, are in direct contact with mat

  2022-03-22

  

  Hippocampal-lesioned mice were less able to withhold responding during a DRL-10 requirement (i.e. when the animals had to wait 10s between lever presses), and were thus less efficient than sham operated controls. In contrast, GluR-A−/− mice did not differ from wild-type mice when the DRL requirement

  2022-03-22

  

  Introduction The West syndrome or epilepsy with epileptic spasms (ES) is an epileptic encephalopathy in early infancy with probable seizure-related developmental regression. According to the United Kingdom Infantile Spams Study (UKISS), common causes of infantile spasms include hypoxic-ischemic enc

  2022-03-22

  

  Solid tumors usually present insufficient supply of oxygen, activating the hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) pathway, which prompts an adaptive response on genes that regulate glycolytic metabolism, promoting glucose uptake through the transcription of GLUTs [54]. Increasing evidence indicates that

  2022-03-22

  

  An important difference between glucokinase and the other hexokinases is that it has a much lower affinity for glucose, such that it is not saturated at physiological blood glucose concentrations (Wilson, 1995, Wilson, 1997, Wilson, 2003, Wilson, 2004, Cárdenas et al., 1998). In addition, glucokinas

  Besides its established insulinotropic actions, GIP has been shown to possess other direct beneficial effects on the beta cell, including stimulation of growth, differentiation, proliferation and survival.21, 22, 23 It has also been shown to stimulate proinsulin gene transcription and translation. M

  2022-03-22

  

  Recent studies suggest that the biological importance of endogenous ghrelin becomes accentuated during exposure to more metabolically-constrained and stressful environments. Indeed, mice lacking either ghrelin or GHSR demonstrate impaired ability to adapt metabolically and/or behaviorally to caloric

  2022-03-22

  

  The potential therapeutic actions of GHSR in the central nervous system has been in the limelight lately. Peripheral administration of GHSR agonists have been shown to inhibit oxidative stress, apoptosis, proinflammatory cytokine production, microglia activation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and excit

  2022-03-22

  

  According to Laplace’s law, loss of myogenic response would increase wall stress and tension in downstream vessels and subsequently induce endothelial dysfunction and arterial stiffness [36]. Indeed, we found that arteries from FPR-1 KO mice presented with a leftward shift in the stress-strain curve

  2022-03-22

  

  The central event eliciting insulin secretion is the production of ATP which leads to the inhibition of ATP-sensitive inwardly-rectifying K+ATP channels, a consecutive depolarization of the plasma membrane with opening of voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels and Ca2+ influx into the beta-cell. However, i

  The minimal segment of the SIM appears to be a core of Talarozole receptor residues, which frequently matches the consensus sequences ΨΨΨΨ, ΨxΨΨ, or ΨΨxΨ (where Ψ is V, I, or L and x is typically D, E, S, or T) [29,31,32]. In a subset of SIMs, this hydrophobic core is flanked by serine residues and
