  2023-05-29

  

  The gene SRD5A2 encodes the 5-α-reductase enzyme, which converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone. Although dihydrotestosterone levels are considerably lower than testosterone, dihydrotestosterone has a five-fold stronger binding capacity to the androgen receptor and, thereby, a considerably mo

  Although sex hormones (activational effects) are known to directly interact with RAS (Baiardi et al., 2005, Miller et al., 1999, Silbiger and Neugarten, 1995), the potential contribution of organizational hormonal and SCC effects on physiological sex-based difference in the regulation of the RAS rem

  Acknowledgments Introduction Angiotensin II (AngII) is among the most potent vasoactive substances produced in humans. Its effects are numerous, from vasoconstriction to control of fluid and electrolytes balances. Many of the physiological and pathological effects of AngII are mediated by the

  In a recent issue of , Minokoshi and colleagues have added more light to our understanding of the role of hypothalamic AMPK in the regulation of energy balance. Previous seminal work from the same group suggested that AMPK in the PVH might be involved in the modulation of feeding . Here, they show

  2023-05-26

  

  We found evidence of the interaction between AR and hemiacetals by evaluating the effect of glucose on l-idose reduction. l-idose was recently proposed as the best AR substrate able to mimic glucose [38]. This aldose is structurally very closely related to d-glucose, from which it differs only in th

  2023-05-26

  

  APPL1 is highly expressed in pancreatic β cells, but its levels are significantly decreased in several mouse models of obesity and diabetes, including HFD-induced obese mice and db/db mice [6], [73], suggesting that the dysregulation of APPL1 may be associated with malfunction of the pancreas in obe

  A highly attenuated B. pertussis strain, named BPZE1, has recently been described [10]. It produces enzymatically inactive pertussis toxin (PT), no dermonecrotic toxin and only trace amounts of tracheal cytotoxin. Markedly reduced lung pathology was observed in mice intranasally (i.n.) infected with

  Regulation and pharmacology of mPGES-1 mPGES-1 (16 kDa, 152 amino acids) is a trimeric integral membrane protein of the endoplasmic reticulum with each monomer containing four transmembrane domains (Samuelsson et al., 2007; Sjogren et al., 2013). The three active site cavities are located at the

  Natural compounds, present in medicinal and/or nutritional plants as well as in macrofungi sources, have stimulated a great interest from the pharmaceutical industry. Different natural compounds such as phenolic compounds, alkaloids, terpenoids among others, have shown strong antiangiogenic effects

  While high-fat diet models of insulin resistance are acceptable approaches for the study of pre-diabetes in humans, they are not suitable for modeling progression towards established type2 diabetes. The pattern of activation of the lipoxygenase pathway in pre-clinical models of type2 diabetes has no

  2023-05-25

  

  According to their structures and substrate specificity, MMPs are divided into five major groups: collagenases (e.g., MMP1), gelatinases (e.g., MMP2, MMP9), stromelysins (e.g., MMP3, MMP10), matrilysins (e.g., MMP7), and membrane-type MMPs [7]. Among them, MMP1 is a major collagenase that degrades t

  2023-05-25

  

  When added to the culture medium, extracellular ATP is metabolized into adenosine by ectonucleotidases, and ARs are then activated by adenosine with concentrations in the micromolar range [27]. However, our study showed that activation of ARs by exogenous adenosine could not induce the odontoblastic

  2023-05-25

  

  Adenosine can modulate neutrophil bactericidal functions. A dual regulatory effect has been reported for adenosine on phagocytosis. Indeed, the activation of A1 receptors augments this process, while the stimulation of A2A receptors was found to reduce the phagocytic activity of neutrophils [89]. In

  The earliest appearance of tumors occurred at 12 months and the latest at 24 months, with an average onset at 18 months (Fig. 1B). This would be roughly equivalent to cancer presenting in a patient between 60 and 70 years of age. In transgenic animals, autotaxin Phusion high-fidelity DNA polymerase
