  Conflict of interest Introduction Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecological malignancy, and ranks as the fifth leading cause of cancer death among women. The American Cancer Society estimates that about 22,280 new ovarian cancer cases and 14,240 deaths will occur in the United States in

  2023-04-06

  

  Acl converts cytosolic citrate, CoA and ATP into acetyl-CoA, ADP+Pi and oxaloacetate (Fig. 1). This cytosolic enzyme is present in few Prokaryotes and in all Eukaryotes, but not in non-oleaginous yeasts [14]. Thus, this enzyme was presumed to be essential for FA synthesis [1], [13], [15]. In most mi

  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

  A clear link between α2-ADR stimulation and decreased respiration in β-cells is established and consistent with proteomics data. Current discoveries in islets have identified physical interactions between ADR-coupled G proteins and cellular components such as insulin vesicles and ion channels (Zhao

  Acknowledgments Introduction Within the classical secretory pathway, transmembrane and soluble cargos travel via the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi apparatus en route to their final destinations [1]. However, at a post-Golgi level, trafficking routes can diverge. In this context, the tra

  2023-03-28

  

  Adenosine receptors activate a number of signalling pathways involved in tissue survival including several mitogen-activated protein kinases (Fredholm et al., 2001). The common feature of all adenosine receptors is the positive coupling to ERK1/2, whilst A2B and A3 receptors can also activate the st

  2023-03-28

  

  REM sleep is proposed to create an environment to facilitate plasticity processes that create a generalized downregulation of synaptic strength (Grosmark et al., 2012; Tononi and Cirelli, 2014), while synapses are upregulated specifically by the reactivation of neuronal firing sequences experienced

  The hippocampus is the primary brain structure involved in learning and memory. The role of hippocampal synaptic plasticity in neurological processes in cognition and depression has been extensively demonstrated. Synaptophysin is a critical substance in synaptogenesis, which is necessary for learnin

  2023-03-27

  

  Aurora kinases were initially identified as protein kinases essential for error-free chromosome segregation during mitosis and meiosis. Aurora A appears to control premetaphase events, such as bipolar spindle assembly 3, 4, with Aurora B and C directing metaphase and postmetaphase events, including

  The first objective of the present study was to investigate the impact of ageing on arginase activity in tissues which exhibit age-related impairments in their function. The second objective was to determine whether l-arginine supplementation modulated the effect of ageing on arginase activity. The

  In spite of this, unexpectedly, after three-week cherry puree consumption no AC increase was observed, irrespective of the method used (Table 2). A statistically significant decrease of AC was even measured by LOX-FL and ORAC methods (−3.5% and −9%, respectively). Nevertheless, a much more evident d

  Expression of Twist1 and the AR are increased by oxidative stress, but the change in the receptor (mRNA/protein) is lost after treatment with siRNAs that target Twist 1 (Shiota et al., 2010). Twist 1 was found to bind to E-boxes, 5′-CANNTG-3′, in the proximal promoter (−442 to +51 bp) and upstream r

  Results The newly synthesized leucine ureido derivatives were firstly evaluated for their enzymatic inhibition using porcine kidney APN (Microsomal, Biocol) with bestatin as the positive control (Table 1).

  Conflict of interest Introduction The Piezo proteins, Piezo1/FAM38A and Piezo2/FAM38B, are multi-pass transmembrane proteins that have been identified as mechanically-activated (MA) homomultimeric, pore-forming ion channels [1,2]. Piezo1 is broadly expressed with its highest expression in blad

  Phosphodiesterase inhibition increases the intracellular levels of cAMP to restore spontaneous contraction (Essayan, 2001, Qi and Kwan, 1996), acting downstream of adenylyl cyclase. Therefore, cardiac arrest induced by decreased intracellular cAMP levels could be reversed by phosphodiesterase inhibi
