  Regarding androgens, it is known that they are also essential for reproductive success (Walters et al., 2010). At the molecular level, their effects are produced mainly by dihydrotestosterone (DHT), arising from the conversion of testosterone by the enzyme 3-oxo-5-alpha-steroid-4-dehydrogenase (enco

  2023-01-02

  

  The structure of 5-LO is divided in two domains, the catalytic C-terminal domain and the N-terminal regulatory C2-like domain (C2ld) [59,60]. The C2ld spans the LDC000067 1-114 and is responsible for translocation and binding of calcium and membranes [61–63]. The catalytic domain is primarily an α-h

  2023-01-02

  

  During myeloid cell maturation, expression of 5-LO mRNA and protein is strongly induced (60–130-fold) by calcitriol (1,25(OH)2D3) and transforming growth factor-β (TGFβ) [6,7]. The upregulation of 5-LO mRNA transcription is mainly due to transcript elongation and mRNA maturation [8,9]. Interestingly

  Introduction Nausea and vomiting are among the most distressing side effects associated with chemotherapy in cancer patients (Billio et al., 2010). Severe emesis can negatively affect a patient's nutritional state, ability to work and motivation, which can, in turn, interfere with the clinical co

  Additionally, in a previous transgenic model with autotaxin under the control of the MMTV-LTR promoter, aberrant expression of human autotaxin caused late-onset, metastatic breast cancer [5]. The AT-ATX transgenic model is analogous to the previous one because ∼30% of all spontaneous tumors appeared

  2022-12-23

  

  The androgen receptor gene (AR) is located on the X-chromosome and consists of eight exons in humans (Brown et al., 1989; Kuiper et al., 1989). The similar gene structure in mice, monotremes and marsupials indicates AR is highly conserved in mammals (Choong et al., 1998; Faber et al., 1991; He et al

  The complex role of the human intestinal microbiota is emerging and its functions has been elucidated when considering energy metabolism, nutrient digestion, vitamin synthesis, epithelial defenses and immune responses [34]. The colon is responsible for salvage of energy and possibly nitrogen from ca

  To confirm a role of OCT3 in corticosterone-induced potentiation of cocaine-primed reinstatement, we examined the interaction of corticosterone and cocaine in the reinstatement of cocaine conditioned place preference (CPP) in wild type mice, and transgenic OCT3-deficient mice. These mice express a t

  2022-12-21

  

  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

  Among the most important Ca regulatory mechanisms are the Plasma Membrane Calcium ATPase (PMCA) and Sarcoplasmic Reticulum Calcium ATPase (SERCA). These pumps belong to the family of P-ATPases, which share the formation of an acid-stable phosphorylated intermediate as part of their reaction cycle. P

  Apelin is a peptide hormone and an endogenous ligand for a G protein-coupled receptor named APJ [7], [8], and apelin and APJ are widely expressed in human organs including hypothalamus, heart, lungs, kidneys, adipose tissue, muscles, and others [9]. Apelin is initially synthesized as a 77-amino-acid

  The role of apelin in hypertension diseases The role of apelin and its receptor APJ in cardiovascular diseases has been described in numerous studies (Table 2) [36,37]. It has been revealed that exogenous apelin may lower blood pressure. Tatemoto et al. [6] have discovered that different forms of
