  2023-11-28

  

  Placental cells also express P450 aromatase (CYP19A1, encoded by CYP19A1). In the placenta, this enzyme requires an external source of androgens, provided by the adrenal gland of the fetus, to form estrogen. The fetal adrenal gland produces dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) [9] and, in the placenta, it

  Serum concentrations of APP and antioxidants of the 10 queens with pyometra before surgery (T0), at day two (T1) and at day 10 (T2) after ovariohysterectomy are presented in Fig. 1. Concentrations of SAA and Hp were significantly lower (P  Discussion Acute phase protein responses were already desc

  2023-11-28

  

  Once apoptosis has been initiated the HMGA proteins themselves undergo marked changes in both the types and extent of their post-translational modifications (PTMs; review in [149,175]), some of which are likely correlated with alterations in chromatin structure. For example, the early stages of apop

• Insulin is the central hormone

  2023-11-28

  

  Insulin is the central hormone involved in the control of glucose and lipid metabolism. Other nonmetabolic effects of insulin are intensively studied as well. Activation of insulin receptor not only promotes glucose uptake, protein synthesis, and inhibits lipid metabolism, but also is crucial for re

  Introduction Sustained over-activation of neurohormonal systems is a hallmark in the pathophysiology of cardiac dysfunction following myocardial infarction (MI) and heart failure (HF). Inhibitors of the renin-angiotensin tachykinin system (RAAS) constitute cornerstones of pharmacotherapy for HF w

  Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators (SARMs) The AR and its endogenous ligands, androgens, are important for development and maintenance of muscle and bone, secondary sexual organs, and development of other tissues (Mooradian et al., 1987). Although androgens are important for normal developmen

  Acknowledgments Introduction Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a severe neurodegenerative disorder primarily affecting the elderly population. Senile plaques in the brain, one of the pathological hallmarks of AD, are formed by the accumulation of aggregated β-amyloid (Aβ) with an extensive β-sheet s

  Introduction It is well known that when epithelial cells are deprived of anchorage, they undergo detachment-induced apoptosis, also known as anoikis. Cancer cells, by contrast, are able to suppress anoikis and survive under anchorage -independent conditions in the circulating system, which is tho

  Cell surface metalloproteases coordinate signaling during development, tissue homeostasis, and disease. A disintegrin and metalloprotease 17 (ADAM17) is a well-characterized member among ADAM family, which mediates the cleavage of various cell surface proteins (Black, 2002, Black et al., 1997, Dello

  The 12/15-lipoxygenase pathway in vascular physiology and pathology The mammalian 12- and 15-LOXs have high substrate specificity oxidizing predominantly ω−6 (arachidonic and linoleic acids) but also the ω−3 (docosahexanoic) SU 9516 [86], [87], [88]. Different LOXs oxidize fatty acids both in th

  2023-11-28

  

  Does TIPARP contribute to the diverse species sensitivity to TCDD toxicity? In chick embryo hepatocytes TIPARP was reported to mediate the TCDD-dependent suppression of hepatic gluconeogenesis, by reducing cellular NAD+ levels and reducing PCK1 expression, suggesting that ADP-ribosylation enhance

  The only psychostimulant treatment option in Turkey is methylphenidate (Çetin et al., 2015). It is broken down by carboxylase enzyme (CES1) (Sun et al., 2004). From the point of pharmacokinetics, it may be suggested that CES1 gene polymorphisms may be the key responsible factors in patients resistan

  APPL1 is highly expressed in pancreatic β cells, but its levels are significantly decreased in several mouse models of obesity and diabetes, including HFD-induced obese mice and db/db mice [6], [73], suggesting that the dysregulation of APPL1 may be associated with malfunction of the pancreas in obe

  As we previously observed in the NSFT (Fukumoto et al., 2014), the effect of LY341495 in the FST was also inhibited by a 5-HT1A receptor antagonist, indicating the role of the 5-HT1A receptor in the actions of LY341495. Among the 5-HT1A receptors, which exist both presynaptically and postsynapticall

  Since natural and recombinant glycoprotein hormones exhibit some differences in their carbohydrate structures, we checked whether this could affect the permissive effect on FSK-induced cyclic AMP response in MLTC-1 cells. Fig. 6 shows that the same sensitizing effect to FSK is observed with pituitar
