  2022-08-24

  

  G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) constitute a large family of 7 trans-membrane-spanning proteins that activate internal signal transduction cascades through binding to different ligands including neurotransmitters, peptides, and lipids [7]. This family of receptors has therapeutic potentials in t

  2022-08-24

  

  PBI-4050 is an agonist of GPR40 and acts as an antagonist or inverse agonist of GPR84. It cannot be excluded that other targets besides GPR40 and GPR84 could be implicated in the mechanism of action of PBI-4050 and could be explored in future studies. However, the present study, and in particular th

  Finally, a potentially effective therapeutic approach is to target the LDH enzymes that mediate bidirectional conversion of pyruvate into lactate. In particular, because LDHA is the predominant isoform expressed in glycolytic tumours, an array of LDHA-targeting compounds have been proposed and valid

  Some biguanides can cross the mitochondrial membrane and increase L-lactate formation by inhibiting oxidative cannabinoid receptors [34]. On the other hand, it has also been reported that levels of fasting plasma lactate in T2DM patients are similar regardless of whether or not metformin is adminis

  2022-08-24

  

  TGR5 is a class A GPCR, transducing signal through Gs-protein mediated cAMP accumulation, and was recently reclassified as the founder member of the bile–acid receptor subclass of GPCRs [22]. The cAMP-mediated signaling of TGR5 activation has been implicated in a range of cellular physiological acti

  Materials and methods Results Discussion Conclusion Pharmacophore modeling was applied to explore new probable Glo-I inhibitors. Ninety two pharmacophoric models were generated representing diverse types of interaction between co-crystallized ligands and corresponding binding site. The g

  Ning et al. showed that LPC 18:1 appeared to increase insulin release through both GPR119-dependent and -independent mechanisms (Ning et al., 2008). In our study, we have shown that not only GPR119 but also GPR40 and GPR55 participate in LPC-stimulated insulin secretion (Fig. 4, Fig. 5) and target p

  In addition, this study also showed no obvious increase in apoptosis but obvious increase in necrosis after WZB117 treatment. The possible reason is that apoptosis is an ATP-utilizing process which is an active and programmed form of cell death. In contrast, necrosis is an uncontrolled or pathologic

  Regulation of pancreatic α and β cell mass has been extensively studied and hotly debated, due to potential therapeutic implications. Early claims of Angptl8 as “betatrophin” and Angptl4 as a regulator of glucagon secretion and α cell proliferation (Yi et al., 2013, Ben-Zvi et al., 2015) have not st

  Heart failure affects approximately 6.5 million people over 20 years of age in the United States, with its prevalence estimated to increase about 45% by 2030 to almost 8 million . It is a chronic disease with complex etiology and heterogeneity in its pathological manifestations. Major risk factors f

  Methods Results Discussion In this study, we investigated temperature effects on Vj-gating properties of two cardiac GJs. In the case of Cx45 GJs, increased temperature from 22 °C to 28 °C (or 32 °C) led to an accelerated Vj-dependent deactivation with little change in the extent of Vj-gati

  In a mouse model of hyperhomocysteinemia (a risk factor for the development of vascular dysfunction) it has been shown that myoendothelial communication is enhanced due to increased expression of Cx37 and IK1 RAS2410 sale [], allowing the propagation of endothelial signals to VSMC and thereby decre

  2022-08-23

  

  Stimulation of FPR by bacterial N-formyl peptides induces basophil and mast 15 release of immunogenic compounds such as histamine [21], [31]. Furthermore, we demonstrated that histamine plays a role in F-MITs-induced sepsis-like symptoms since cimetidine, a histamine H2-receptor antagonist, complet

  Ligand selectivity may directly be related to the conformational landscape explored by GPCRs despite that most GPCRs do not require dimerization for ligand recognition (Mary et al., 2012). Monomer FPRs have traditionally been perceived as receptors that can recognize N-formyl peptides and LXA4. This

  Phosphorylation of the p50-Rel A dimer, the most common form of NF-κB, leads to ubiquitination of IκB proteins (Fig. 2). Poly-ubiquitination of IκB proteins identifies them for rapid degradation by 26S proteasomes, thereby allowing NF-κB dimers to undergo nuclear translocation and activate the trans
