  2022-01-24

  

  Arena Pharmaceutical introduced a biaryl sulfone derivative with antagonistic activity at H3Rs known as APD-916, ((R)-1-(2-(4'-(3-methoxypropylsulfonyl)biphenyl-4-yl)ethyl)-2-methylpyrrolidine), which was rationally designed from corresponding sulfonamides in order to yield compounds with short dura

  2022-01-24

  

  Since we found miR-15b-5p to be differentially expressed along the porcine intestine in 31 day old piglets in a former study [10], the entire miRNA family was analyzed in terms of interaction with potential target-genes. In silico analysis predicted miR-15 family members to target the hedgehog signa

  2022-01-24

  

  Renal disease is characterized by aberrant fibrotic remodeling of renal tissue, elevated apoptosis in kidney tissue, and eventual organ failure. In addition, patients with renal disease are more likely to suffer from systemic hypertension due to oxidative damage (reviewed in Ref. [18]). Treatment of

  2022-01-24

  

  Cholecystokinin (CCK) CCK is secreted by enteroendocrine I-cells of the duodenum and jejunum in response to amino acids and lipids [14]. There are two forms of the CCK receptor, CCK1 which is expressed on pancreatic α- and β-cells while CCK2 is located on somatostatin-secreting δ-cells [8]. CCK r

  Endogenous and synthetic ligands of GPR55 There are currently limited commercially available synthetic agonists and antagonists that are specific for GPR55. A large number of studies have investigated the pharmacology of GPR55 4, 23, 25, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, with contradictory findings reporte

  2022-01-24

  

  Extending the issue of the species differences, the role of neuroestradiol in the preovulatory GnRH/LH surge might be specific to primates or species with a luteal phase. For example, animals with a true luteal phase, such as monkeys and sheep, exhibit a long preovulatory GnRH surge, lasting well af

  Introduction As is now well known, obesity is major risk factor for various diseases such as nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, cardiovascular disease, some cancers (McWilliams and Petersen, 2009), type-2 diabetes mellitus (Jakobsen et al., 2007), and hypertension (Aneja et al., 2004), among other

  In this study, we demonstrate that the ETS transcription factor ETV5 is involved in the regulation of ghrelin system in response to the altered nutritional state. In the recent multiple GWAS studies, three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of ETV5, rs7647305 (Thorleifsson et al., 2009; Willer e

  2022-01-21

  

  Galanin mediates its activity by binding to three G-protein coupled receptor subtypes (designated GAL1-GAL3). Since GAL3 mRNA is found mainly in regions of the mesolimbic dopamine system, such as the ventral tegmental area, dorsal raphe nucleus, LC, amygdala, hippocampus, thalamus, hypothalamus, NAc

  SCH-497079 is a H3R receptor antagonist introduced by Schering-Plough, without any publicized pharmacological and structural information. A Phase II clinical trial assessment of SCH-497079 on weight has been completed in a multicenter, randomized, parallel-group and placebo-controlled study in obese

  2022-01-21

  

  Substrate affinity and specificity can be enhanced by docking interactions, in which regions distal to the site of Hesperadin bind to grooves, pockets, or surfaces outside of the kinase catalytic cleft 1, 2, 5, 6. Like catalytic site interactions, docking interactions can involve recognition of sho

  AP-1 [16], [17] and NF-κB activation is inhibited by curcumin (diferuloylmethane) [18], [19], the yellow component of Curcuma longa that gives curry its colour and flavour. Curcumin has shown anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties [20], [21], [22], [23], [24], [25], [26] due to the inhibition

  Introduction Initial studies of cancer metabolism in the early 1920s showed that the cancer phenotype for glucose metabolism is unique, with increased abilities to take up glucose and produce lactate, even under aerobic conditions [1]. This pathway, called aerobic glycolysis or the Warburg effect
