  2021-09-26

  

  The intestinal epithelium is the first line of defense against pathogens and noxious agents and exerts a range of physiological activities, including digestion and GM6001 of nutrients. The intestinal wall consists of a series of finger shaped protrusions called villi and invaginations known as cryp

  Conclusions We concluded that the inhibitory effects of propofol on fMMYALF-induced neutrophil activation are mediated by competition with FPR1, which inhibits receptor-mediated downstream signaling and inflammatory responses such as oxidative burst, elastase release, and chemotactic migration (F

  2021-09-26

  

  Computational approaches such as docking and classical molecular dynamics (MD) are now commonly used to study the structure and dynamics of proteins as well as associated protein-ligand interactions [12]. A fundamental requirement of MD in order to accurately determine the behavior of a protein over

  Introduction Stroke is the second cause of death worldwide and the first cause of acquired motor disability in adults [1], [2]. In sub-Saharan Africa, stroke is the first cause of admission in neurology departments [3]. In Cameroon, the in-hospital mortality of stroke is estimated at 26.8% [4]. A

  Recent studies in our laboratory demonstrated that several histamine H1 receptor antagonists induce apo A-I gene expression while histamine itself represses it [20]. In humans, there are three histamine receptor genes (H1, H2, and H3) that code for G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCR's) which bind his

  Acknowledgements Introduction Histamine mediates various physiological functions and pathological actions through its interactions with histamine receptors that belong to the superfamily of seven transmembrane G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) (Haas et al., 2008). Four histamine receptor subty

  As a result of the capability of modulating the dynamic changes and rearrangement of cytoskeletons, the Rho GTPases, in which RhoA, Cdc42 and Rac1 are best-characterized, have been highlighted as significant contributors for orchestrating neuronal development (Duman et al., 2015, Heasman and Ridley,

  Treatment with probiotics can also be used to alter the microbiota profile of CF patients. One study reports that administration of the probiotic Lactobacillus Reuteri improved digestive health and inflammation [112]. The fecal microbial profile changed, showing a decrease in Proteobacteria and an i

  Based on our finding that TFA modulates GlyR function and reports that TFA-bound beta lactamase inhibitor can differ markedly from those synthesized without TFA, we retested a previously published dodecapeptide (D12-116) that also enhanced GlyR function but this time as a chloride salt (Tipps et al

  2021-09-24

  

  The typical pharmacophore for GPR40 agonists contains four parts: head (acid moiety), central (phenyl ring), linker and tail (aromatic carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring) [20]. On the other hand, the chemical features that are required for the PPARγ agonists include hydrogen bond donors and acceptors

  The concept of the axo-myelin ‘synapse’ Axons can release glutamate in a Ca+-dependent and independent manner (reviewed in [13,69]). Glutamate released from axons activates GluRs located in myelin, a feature that gave rise to the idea of the axo-myelin ‘synapse’ by analogy with classical synaptic

  2021-09-24

  

  Structurally, the termini of FGF21 are critical for effective signaling. Progressive amino glucocorticoid receptor truncation at either end of the protein sequentially impairs FGF21 bioactivity, but via different mechanisms. Shortening at the N-terminus weakens its ability to activate the FGFR/KLB-

  Significance Metabolites present in the extracellular environment can potently modulate cellular phenotypes and potentially serve as therapeutics for various diseases. Ferroptosis is a non-apoptotic cell death process characterized by the generation of toxic lipid reactive oxygen species (ROS). I
