  Importantly, the levels of the pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-1β and Nf-κB, a key transcription factor in chronic inflammatory responses that is activated by pro-inflammatory cytokines, were also reduced by the drugs, confirming our previous results that demonstrated anti-inflammatory effec

  2022-08-18

  

  Cx43 is a phosphoprotein that is predominantly phosphorylated in the control state. Cx43 can be phosphorylated by a number of kinases and dephosphorylated by protein phosphatases such as PP1 and PP2A [6], [10]. Posttranslational phosphorylation of Cx43 is thought to influence intercellular coupling

  2022-08-18

  

  Gamma-secretase trafficking GS activity for APP can be influenced by sub-cellular trafficking, as APP cleavage differs depending on its localization. APP is synthesized in the ER and transported to the trans-Golgi network (Annaert et al., 1999, Pasternak et al., 2003, Ray et al., 1999a, Rechards

  2022-08-18

  

  Primarily because γ-secretase was a therapeutic target in AD, a plethora of γ-secretase inhibitors (GSIs) have been developed that effectively inhibit γ-secretase cleavage in humans [16]. Indeed, “druggability” of γ-secretase has not been an issue even when the identity of the target was unknown in

  Galanin, a 29/30-amino-acid peptide, was first isolated in 1983 from porcine intestine by Tatemoto and collaborators [70]. It is widely distributed throughout the central and peripheral nervous systems as well as other tissues. It is involved in a wide range of physiological functions, such as modul

  In addition to the four classical FGFRs there is an additional receptor, FGFR like-1 (FGFRL1, also known as FGFR5) (Ornitz and Itoh, 2015, Trueb et al., 2003). FGFRL1 gene was discovered in a cartilage specific cDNA library in 2000 (Trueb, 2011, Trueb et al., 2003) and thereafter it has been found i

  The C-terminal regions in both FGF19 and FGF21 define their KLB interaction [15], [16], [23], [25]. However, less than 40% identity in comparative alignment of C-terminal sequences for these two proteins (Table 1) suggests that their interaction with KLB may require higher-order association with oth

• Upon LPS stimulation ERK and STAT signaling pathways

  2022-08-17

  

  Upon LPS stimulation, ERK and STAT3 signaling pathways were activated in a time-dependent manner, and the phosphorylation of Y705 occurred later than that of S727 (Supplementary Fig. S5B). STAT3 is known to be phosphorylated on serine 727 (S727) by the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase pathway

  Successful immune escape will be then followed by cancer development, along with which immunocytes infiltration occurs. While some immunocytes are born to sweep away the malignancy, others aim to neutralize the lethality and sustain immune anergy and tolerance [59,60]. And the latter one is well rep

  GSNOR activity and functions The identification of the enzyme responsible for GSNO decomposition dates back to 1998, when Jensen and colleagues described an NAD(P)H-dependent GSNO catabolizing activity in cytosolic fractions obtained from rat liver [16]. Upon purification, they identified this en

  Interestingly, zaprinast administration not only prevents the development of hypersensitivity but also enhances opioid effectiveness. Opioids have long been considered among the most effective drugs used to treat pain (Watkins et al., 2005; Mika et al., 2013; Szczudlik et al., 2014a, Szczudlik et al
