  The AChR is composed of five homologous, membrane-spanning subunits. AChRs containing two α, one β, one δ and one γ subunit (AChRγ) predominate during embryonic development and mice lacking AChRγ die at birth (Takahashi et al., 2002). After birth, the AChRγs are replaced during the first 2 postnatal

  Introduction Dementia is a common disease in the elderly, and a significant source of disability, healthcare spending, and long-term care admissions. There is evidence to suggest that testosterone plays a role in cognitive functioning, and lower serum levels correlate with higher amyloid deposits (

  Introduction The first use of the term “autophagy” by a French physiologist, M. Anselmier, in a short article describing the effects of fasting in mice published in 1859, took place almost a century before Christian De Duve described it from a mechanistic point of view in a symposium on lysosomes i

  Introduction Mitotic kinases play an essential role in mitosis, Aurora and other mitotic kinases are often observed over-expression in human solid and many hematologic cancers. As one of serine/threonine kinases, Aurora kinase family is involved in centrosome maturation, mitotic spindle formation,

  2024-09-11

  

  Plant tissues were thought to be natural sources containing different types of antioxidant compounds (tocopherols, ascorbic acid, carotenoids, and phenolic compounds). As a general classification, antioxidants were grouped as vitamins (ascorbic acid, tocopherols), carotenoids (condensed tannins, xan

  Since E2 was shown to affect the expression of Hsps, the transcript expression levels of another 11 Hsps were also evaluated by real-time PCR with their specific primers. The transcripts of 4 proteins (Hsp10, Hsp56, Hsp70a and Hsp110) were significantly up-regulated, but that of Hsp47 was significan

  2024-09-11

  

  In addition, AMPK reduces protein synthesis and stimulates apoptotic and autophagic pathways through the inhibition of the mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR), which regulates cellular metabolic homeostasis, insulin secretion, insulin resistance, autophagy and apoptosis (Maiese, 2016). mTOR is th

  2024-09-11

  

  Although AMPK is a negative regulator of bioenergetic reprogramming in cancer cells, little is known about the role of AMPK in immunometabolism in sepsis. Our current study indicates that AMPKα dysfunction enhances PKM2-dependent aerobic glycolysis, which results in HMGB1 release in macrophages and

  2024-09-11

  

  Several enzymes in serine and glycine metabolism have been proposed as biomarkers for cancer stage and prognosis. Phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH), phosphoserine phosphatase (PSPH), and serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT) levels are high in TNBC and low in luminal-A breast cancers (Kim et a

  On the other hand, there was no difference in effectiveness performing ALK by FISH with regard to the sample site. When it was extracted from the primary tumor, we obtained 27.4% of not-evaluable specimens. Similar percentages were found for node (26.7%) and PCI-24781 (31.3%) samples (p = 0.903).

  Young et al. [40] described the role of adenine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in the translocation of GLUT4 in the heart. The AMPK is activated during muscle contraction [74] by converting AMP to ATP. The adenosine analog, 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide (AICAR), is a c

  APPL1 was the first adaptor protein identified that interacts directly with adiponectin receptors [18]. A two-hybrid study by Dong and colleagues revealed that the C-terminal extracellular domain of AdipoR1 interacts with adiponectin, whereas the N-terminal cytoplasmic domain of AdipoR1 interacts wi

  The enzyme plays an important role in the purine metabolism of this parasite. Like other parasitic protozoa, T. gondii is incapable of de novo purine biosynthesis and depends totally on preformed purines salvaged from the host (+)- Corydaline synthesis for its purine requirements and survival (Perr

  In this study, PRP4 positively regulated MIIP levels and significantly inhibited the invasion of HCT116 cells. Further investigations elucidated that PRP4 dephosphorylated MIIP via PP1A regulation, which was confirmed by PP1A inhibition in the presence of OA. Upon dephosphorylation, MIIP possibly in

  Results Discussion The present study uncovers a role of calpain, a family of calcium-dependent protease, in regulating postsynaptic differentiation at the NMJ. Cholinergic activation stimulates calpain, whose inhibition stabilizes AChR clusters in cultured muscle 5-Hydroxy-CTP mg and in agrin
