  2024-08-09

  

  APJ receptor expression is altered in various cardiovascular diseases, and both increases as well as decreases in APJ receptor expression have been reported. A decrease in mRNA and protein levels of APJ receptors was observed in patients with ischemic heart disease or idiopathic dilated cardiomyopat

  2024-08-09

  

  The results of our in vivo experiments provide promising evidence that the apelin/APLNR axis is implicated in CCA growth and that targeting this axis with a receptor specific antagonist may help develop effective, tumor directed therapies. Not only do we show decreased proliferation and angiogenesis

  2024-08-09

  

  Due to anatomical and physiologic characteristics of the eye, administration of ophthalmic medicines is difficult and many studies showed that only approximately 5% of the administrated dose are absorbed by intraocular tissues, making the treatment unfeasible for diseases located in posterior segmen

  2024-08-09

  

  It has been reported that trehalose shows beneficial effects in a mouse model of several neurodegenerative diseases [21], [22], [23]. There are also reports showing that trehalose can improve the impaired cognitive and learning ability and reduced Aβ deposit in hippocampus of APP/PS1 transgenic mice

  Introduction Breast cancer is the most frequently occurring cancer in women, and despite the development of new therapies there has been little decline in the mortality rate over the past decade (Siegel et al., 2015). This is partly due to the genetic diversity of breast cancers, such that there

  2024-08-09

  

  The dependence of blood cell production on a limited number of HSC and HPC (hereafter collectively referred to as HSPC) means that protection from potential toxins is essential for maintenance of the hematologic system (see Fig. 1). For example, the generation of blood cells within the intramedullar

  2024-08-09

  

  Cells have developed strategies aiming to enhance both the efficiency of proteins with chaperone activity as well as their overall antioxidant capacity to maintain proteostasis under oxidative stress conditions (Miyata et al., 2012). For instance, 2-Cys peroxiredoxin is an abundantly expressed, anti

  Acknowledgment Introduction Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) exhibit the capacity to switch between a differentiated (contractile) and a dedifferentiated (synthetic) phenotype [1]. Synthetic VSMC express a lower amount of contractile proteins such as Smooth muscle 22α (sm22α) and α-Smooth m

  The role of DHT in early teleost embryogenesis is not entirely clear or established, however additional studies that treat fish embryos to DHT or to specific srd5a inhibitors at critical stages of development (i.e. prior to sex differentiation) will shed light on the early functions of this androgen

  Introduction 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) is found throughout the body and influences smooth muscle activity in various tissues including the intestine, vasculature and urinary angiopoietin (Kim and Camilleri, 2000, Klarskov and Horby-Petersen, 1986, Mohammad-Zadeh et al., 2008). The current classif

  LPA binds to six specific cell surface GPCR receptors. The receptors LPA1 (lysophosphatidic receptor 1, formerly, Edg2), LPA2 (Edg4) and LPA3 (Edg7) belong to the endothelial differentiation gene family (EDG) and share sequence homology (50–60% amino channel modulator homology) An et al., 1997, An

  In the current study, we provide evidence that enhanced ATX activity correlates well with increased ATX protein concentration during cholestasis and pregnancy (Fig. 1). Hereby we have ruled out the possibility of ATX enzyme activation in these conditions, e.g. by circulating cholephiles. ATX clearan

  ABC super family proteins are found in all forms of life and ABC-F subfamily of proteins are involved in cellular processes such as translational control and antibiotic resistance by ribosomal protection [3], [5]. The Mtb ABC proteins that do not contain transmembrane domains have not been studied [

  While high-fat diet models of insulin resistance are acceptable approaches for the study of pre-diabetes in humans, they are not suitable for modeling progression towards established type2 diabetes. The pattern of activation of the lipoxygenase pathway in pre-clinical models of type2 diabetes has no
