  2020-06-08

  

  Therapeutic options targeting intrahepatic resistance are very limited. Theoretically, the NO-cGMP pathway may be influenced at several sites. Yet, most strategies did not reach clinical practice or yielded disappointing results, such as activators of soluble guanylate cyclase [14], NO releasing der

• A putative SHBG receptor SHBG R has been postulated

  2020-06-08

  

  A putative SHBG 4μ8C synthesis (SHBG-R) has been postulated for about thirty years [66], [69], [70]. The characterization of this receptor has been researched by several groups. There are different ideas on how this receptor works. On the one hand Fortunati et al. provide evidence that SHBG is alre

  2020-06-08

  

  At one time, the biological effects of cAMP were thought to be mediated exclusively by Protein Kinase A (PKA). Consistent with this, PKA inhibitors have been shown to reverse the effects of cAMP-elevating agents on VSMC proliferation [5]. However, we recently reported that cAMP-mediated inhibition o

  Anaesthetized mice of one eNOS-KO strain showed a paradoxical decrease in blood pressure (BP) in response to i.p. administration of the NOS-inhibitor L-NA suggesting a role for non-endothelial isoforms of NOS in maintaining BP [1]. Alternatively, diminution in the activity of the renin-angiotensin s

  2020-06-08

  

  In addition to vasoconstrictor actions (acute effects), ET-1 exerts potent mitogenic actions on vascular smooth muscle cells and cardiac myocytes (chronic effects), hence causing vascular and cardiac hypertrophy [19,24,25]. These effects are mediated via stimulation of either ETA or ETB receptors, a

  2020-06-08

  

  Our study revealed elevated basal Akt phosphorylation in diet-induced obesity, the effect of which was reversed by ETAKO. Activation of Akt promotes cardiac hypertrophy via a number of cellular mechanisms including activation of its downstream targets such as mTOR and GSK3β [45, 46]. Short-term acti

  Current therapeutic interventions are directed both to prevent (primarily by proper glycemic control) and to treat the advanced stages of diabetic retinopathy, when vision has already been significantly affected. Although these therapies can be very effective in preventing, delaying or reducing visi

  However, one major challenge will be to understand how the diverse actions of D2Rs in multipartite, dopamine-sensitive circuits are coordinated to produce specific behaviors across species. It is possible that emerging techniques for imaging neuronal activity in different neuronal population in beha

  The thermal behavior of the UV-sensitive nanocomposites was investigated by DSC before and after irradiation in an extended temperature range (from −40 to 250 °C). Fig. 4a shows the thermograms of the non-irradiated GNP-DNA/PDMS nanocomposites in comparison with a neat PDMS sample. The filler-loaded

  In Senegal, malaria remains a formidable public health issue, causing significant morbidity and mortality in infants and pregnant women (WHO Malaria Report, 2012). In the absence of an effective vaccine, the National Malaria Control Program has followed WHO recommendations for IPTp-SP since 2003. Th

  2020-06-08

  

  The corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) also referred to as corticotropin-releasing hormone, is a key mediator of mammalian endocrine, behavioral, autonomic, and immune responses to stress (Vale et al., 1981, Owens and Nemeroff, 1991, Bale and Vale, 2004). Within the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal

  Stress is usually comprehended as an event affecting mainly the HPA axis and initiating the alarm reaction represented by activation of the adrenal medulla. This means that the levels of related hormones and neurotransmitters are significantly elevated during and after the stress. CRF, following its

  Conclusion Introduction The morphological variability of aquatic plants is well documented, and in some cases has seriously constrained taxonomic resolution (Sculthorpe, 1967, Santamaría, 2002). Many of these variations are caused by the extensive phenotypic plasticity of aquatic plants, but t
