  Materials and methods Results Aberrant Aβ has been suggested to be an initiating factor for glutamate excitotoxicity in AD pathology. To investigate whether Aβ1-42 alters glutamate uptake in astrocytes, neurons, and astrocyte-neuron co-cultures, we used synthetic Aβ1-42 peptide. Aβ1-42 has fas

  Knowing that our strongest phenotypic differences between the genotypes involved feeding behavior in various contexts, we decided to examine the case of restricted feeding and food anticipatory activity. Animals faced with a restricted schedule of food availability develop a series of anticipatory b

• Galanin a amino acid peptide

  2022-02-08

  

  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

  2022-02-08

  

  Analgesic activity was evaluated by measuring tail flick latencies to the immersion of rat’s tail in water, maintained at ∼51°C [18] after recovery from anesthesia. Typically, rats were immobilized inside a restrainer, leaving only the tail exposed, which was then immersed into the hot water bath, a

  The highest metabolic stability observed for compound 4k (EC50=0.41μM corresponding to 218ng/mL) among the four selected frontrunner candidates was the principal decisive point in nominating this compounds for pharmacokinetic characterization in mice at the dosage of 10mg/kg (administered intravenou

  2022-02-08

  

  GLP-1 is released in response to ingestion of nutrients including carbohydrates, protein, and fat. Recent studies aimed at identifying the receptors involved in nutrient stimulated GLP-1 secretion have identified free fatty BV6 receptor receptor 4 (FFA4/GPR120) as a potential 7TM receptor involved

  The replenishment time course of already-tethered vesicle to became release ready, was examined by TIRFM imaging combined with calcium uncaging. By UV-flash photolysis of caged calcium, intracellular calcium concentration raises rapidly and homogenously throughout the cell (Ellis-Davies, 2008). Upon

  However, HDACi can also increase the acetylation of other transcription factors that regulate p65 transcriptional activity. The HDACi-induced activation of p65 can be negated by acetylated STAT1, which can specifically bind to p65 and inhibit its transcriptional activity 81, 82, 83. Interestingly, a

  2022-02-08

  

  The beta-catenin/TCF complex is an important target in the Wnt/beta-catenin pathway. This complex has proven challenging to target. However, natural inhibitors of this complex have been identified. One group of inhibitors is called the inhibitors of Wnt response (IWR-1/2). IWR-1/2 targets Axin and s

  2022-02-08

  

  The endocannabinoid system (ECS) consists of cannabinoid (CB)1 and CB2 receptors, their endogenous ligands anandamide and 2-arachidonylglycerol, and the synthesizing and degrading enzymes for these ligands. Cannabinoids and the ECS are involved in the regulation of GI motility in physiological and p

  Limited efforts were made to exploit the naturally-occurring antigen-specific Treg for ex vivo expansion. This study sets up a reproducible protocol for the expansion of insulin-specific Treg isolated from NOD mice. These ligand gated ion channels exhibited higher suppressive capacity compared to t

  2022-02-07

  

  Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is thought to be a crucial molecule in acute pain signaling in the DRG, as well as in the development and maintenance of chronic pain (Burnstock, 2009, Burnstock, 2013, Burnstock, 2014, Chizh and Illes, 2001). Extracellular ATP activates the ionotropic P2X receptors (Bur

  Due to the therapeutic potential of GlyT1 inhibitors, numerous drug screening campaigns have been started - and are still going on - which aimed at the identification of compounds with biological activity at or affinity for this drug target. For characterization of biological activity at GlyT1, tran

  Heterocysts provide the required microoxic environment for the oxygen-sensitive N2-fixing nitrogenase enzyme complex. This environment is formed during heterocyst development. Developing heterocysts inactivate photosystem II and degrade antenna pigments, thereby decreasing oxygenic photosynthesis (F

Our data provides evidence that this protective effect is likely due in large par
