  2024-02-28

  

  Among the enzymes involved in adenosine metabolism, adenosine kinase plays an important role in regulating formation and release of endogenous adenosine in cardiomyocytes as well as vascular endothelial cells Decking et al., 1997, Kowaluk et al., 1998, Smolenski et al., 1994. Inhibition of adenosine

  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

  Although the role of mossy fiber sprouting in epileptogenesis has been challenged (Elmer et al., 1997, Nissinen et al., 2001), in addition to astrogliosis, mossy fiber sprouting is one of the characteristic histopathological findings in TLE (Kharatishvili et al., 2006, Pitkanen et al., 2007, Represa

  2024-02-28

  

  Introduction Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disease in which antibodies against targets on the postsynaptic muscle membrane cause neuromuscular transmission failure. About 85% of patients with MG have autoantibodies against simvastatin zocor receptor (AChR) [1]. In AChR negative MG pati

  2024-02-28

  

  Nevertheless, though the 5-LO pathway dictates the production of lipid mediators with opposite roles in the immune reactions, like LTs and LXA4 [32], our results seemed to corroborate others that pointed to LTB4 as an outstanding mediator involved in persistent and chronic inflammatory skin diseases

  2024-02-28

  

  To further address the mechanism of Didox’s suppressive effects on mast cell activation, FceRI receptor alk inhibitor and downstream transcription factor induction were assessed. We found that Didox had no effect on FceRI surface expression, and thus concluded that Didox effects must be occurring d

  Genetic analysis of polarity complexes Model organisms such as Caenorhabditis elegans and Drosophila melanogaster provide useful means of describing basic biological processes. They lend themselves particularly well to addressing some of the questions arising in this field because of their struct

  2024-02-28

  

  The association of male gender with increased atherosclerosis has stimulated interest in the role of androgen signalling in this condition. Androgens act (Fig. 2) by direct activation of androgen receptor (AR), a nuclear receptor that acts as a ligand-regulated transcription factor (Gao et al., 2005

  Introduction Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a clinicopathologic spectrum of liver pathologies associated with excessive accumulation of fat in the liver. This spectrum is continuous but can be graded based on pathological features; in increasing severity, these are: bland steatosis,

  Based on our findings in this work as well as the previous published data in the experimental mice model of RSV infection, we suggest that modulation of 12/15 LOX expression and/or blocking of LOX products such as 12(S)-HETE may represent potential pharmacological approaches to prevent or treat vira

  There are some limitations and further experiments that are required. First, to our surprise, measurement of the cardiomyocyte cross-sectional area in Akt1−/−/iAkt2 KO mice showed comparable areas to WT mouse despite of reduced heart weight. In addition to measuring cardiomyocyte cross-sectional are

  In vivo CA mediate hypoxic, nutritional, and neurologic stress responses. Stimulation of ADRα2A by these hormones to reduce β-cell metabolism has an obvious role in suppressing insulin secretion (Arun, 2004). Since β-cell metabolism and insulin secretion are linked, mechanisms that inhibit metabolis

  Regarding the 5-HT1B receptors, they act as terminal receptors and are involved in the presynaptic regulation of the release of 5-HT. But at spinal level these receptors are principally situated post-synaptically (Sari, 2004). The ability of autoreceptors to regulate extracellular levels of 5-HT dur
