  Mechanistically, it was soon realized that in undead cells, Dronc promotes the activation of Jun-N-terminal kinase (JNK) signaling as the major inducer of AiP [25], [28] (Fig. 2B,C). However, it has been unknown for a long time how active Dronc promotes JNK signaling. Recently, it was reported that

  2024-09-23

  

  Apelin Discovered in 1998, apelin was initially identified as the sole endogenous ligand for the APJ receptor (Tatemoto et al., 1998). Apelin-77 (pre-pro-apelin) is the precursor for various pharmacologically active apelin isoforms (e.g. apelin-12, -13, -17 and 36), and it shares 75–95% sequence

  To the best of our knowledge, only 3 cases of an E196K mutation have been described since it was first identified in 2000 [15], [16], [17], although 5 cases, accounting for 1.1% of all genetic TSE cases, were reported with no precise data on the clinical phenotypes in the EUROCJD collaborative surve

  2024-09-21

  

  The loss of synaptic proteins such as synaptophysin from the ci-1033 is indicative of synapse degeneration and provided a good correlate of the degree of dementia in AD [12], [13], [14]. Consequently, the loss of synaptic proteins from cultured primary neurons incubated with Aβ provides a useful in

  2024-09-21

  

  Calcium entry through postsynaptic NMDARs activates intracellular signaling cascades including Ca2+/calmodulin (CaM)-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) and calcineurin. The spatiotemporal abundance of this Ca2+/CaM complex determines the direction of synaptic plasticity, resulting in LTP (Malinow

  Since all the above vascular and glomerular effects contribute to blood pressure regulation, it is expected for 12/15-LOX pathway to play a role in pathogenesis of hypertension (Fig. 6). Indeed, there is evidence for alterations of the 12- and 15LOX enzymes and metabolites both in humans with essent

  APN accounts for 0.01% of total plasma proteins in humans; this proportion increases with age to a small extent (Barb et al., 2007). Normal APN levels in the circulation range 3–30μg/mL (Aprahamian and Sam, 2011). APN levels are lower in men than women due to the presence of testosterone and even mo

  In previous research, we determined that blocking mAC during heparin-induced capacitation result in sperm having a lesser oxygen consumption, suggesting that cAMP produced by this enzyme would be linked to mitochondrial activity and, therefore, with the regulation of sperm metabolism (Fernández and

  Acknowledgment Introduction Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) exhibit the capacity to switch between a differentiated (contractile) and a dedifferentiated (synthetic) phenotype [1]. Synthetic VSMC express a lower amount of contractile proteins such as Smooth muscle 22α (sm22α) and α-Smooth m

  Antioxidative stress and anti-inflammation Oxidative stress is a major cause of reduced endothelial NO bioavailability in hypertension, and inflammatory response is thought to play an important role in these processes (Blake and Ridker, 2001, Landmesser et al., 2006). Reactive oxygen species (RO

  The extent to which GPCR oligomerization is a regulated process still remains unclear. Reported effects of ligands on both GPCR homo- and heteromers are highly variable and depend on GPCR subtypes and the specific ligand used. According to our data, chronic treatment of mice with both paroxetine or

  Based on these findings, the time point for manipulating autophagy may also determine its role, whereby autophagy induction performed before ischemia could play a protective role but have an opposite effect once ischemia/reperfusion has occurred. This hypothesis is further supported by the protectiv

  In 2010, a study highlighted the usefulness of arginase-1 as a sensitive and specific marker of hepatocytic differentiation for diagnostic pathology [9]. Subsequent studies have validated the high sensitivity and specificity of arginase-1, in particular its added value in evaluating poorly different
