  The role of GJs in liver fibrogenesis was studied recently. Studies showed a significant decrease in liver fibrosis in Cx32 knockout mice compared to wild-type mice. Although the mechanism underlying this protective effect of Cx32 deletion is not clear, reduced oxidative stress was suggested as a po

  One effective approach to fine-tuning the lipophilicity profile of FFA1 agonists is to ‘decorate’ the 3-phenylpropahoic Adenosine-5'-diphosphate scaffold with polar heterocyclic moieties. Alternatively, this scaffold could be replaced with heterocyclic isosteres (as in Takeda’s compounds 1,2 and 3

  PEPCK This enzyme decarboxylates and then phosphorylates oxaloacetate to form phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) in the second step of gluconeogenesis after the carboxylation of pyruvate catalyzed by PC. PEPCK1 (PEPCK-C, encoded by the PCK1 gene) and PEPCK2 (PEPCK-M, encoded by the PCK2 gene) are two isof

  Drosophila is a well-established model to investigate the molecular and cellular defects underlying human neurodevelopmental disorders (Oortveld et al., 2013, van der Voet et al., 2014). Here, we establish Drosophila as a model for understanding the mechanisms linking mutations in KDM5 family protei

  Arena Pharmaceutical introduced a biaryl sulfone derivative with antagonistic activity at H3Rs known as APD-916, ((R)-1-(2-(4'-(3-methoxypropylsulfonyl)biphenyl-4-yl)ethyl)-2-methylpyrrolidine), which was rationally designed from corresponding sulfonamides in order to yield compounds with short dura

  Hippo pathway signalling The Hippo pathway is an evolutionarily conserved signal transduction pathway regulated by cell-cell contact, cell polarity, mechanical cues, ligands of G-protein coupled receptors, and cellular glut 1 status [10]. This pathway is linked to development, cell proliferation

  As evidenced by SARs and crystallographic data, HO-1 has at least three main crucial regions for inhibitor binding. The most crucial area, the so-called eastern region, is able to allocate the azole ring that represents the first anchoring point by establishing a coordination binding to the heme fer

  The fibulins are a newly abundantly in the basement membrane of blood vessels. Among them, fibulin-1 is essential for elastin polymerization. Tropoelastin cannot be assembled into mature elastin fibrils without the functional fibulin-1. In adult blood vessels, pronounced fibulin 1 deposition can be

  It is important to note that the GC-C expression is retained in colon tumours, and therefore GC-C expression can be used as a marker to diagnose metastatic colon cancer [42]. However, expression of uroguanylin and guanylin is often lost in colorectal cancer progression [43]. Therefore, the anti-prol

  Introduction In the 1980s, nitric oxide (NO) was first characterized as critical to both innate immunity and endogenous signaling in animals [[1], [2], [3], [4], [5]]. NO was the first gaseous signaling molecule synthesized by animals to have its biochemical signaling pathway fully described [2]. P

  Positive regulation of gene C527 by Nrf2 Repression of Nrf2 by Keap1 Because many xenobiotic inducers of NQO1 and GST enzyme activities contain a thiol-reactive electrophilic moiety (i.e. are soft electrophiles), Paul Talalay and colleagues predicted in 1988 that they would be recognized with

  Advanced Glycation Endproducts As glucose levels rise within sensory neurons as a result of hyperglycemia, normal metabolic pathways become overwhelmed and excess glucose is shunted into other ancillary pathways that, under these conditions, become damaging. One consequence of hyperglycemia is th
