  The value of a model of the complex forensic science matrix There have been various models proposed to address the complexity inherent to forensic reconstruction [15], [16], [17]. It is possible to argue that embracing the value of holistic models is important if we are to reclaim the ‘endeavour

  Results and discussion GSTP1 is a Phase II cytoprotective and detoxifying enzyme. Due to its role in the detoxification of numerous endogenous and exogenous chemical agents (with electrophilic functional groups), individuals with Ile105Val mutation in this gene show enhanced risk of atopic disord

  Brief overview of GSK-3 inhibitors We will briefly summarize some of the key aspects about GSK-3 inhibitors. Additional details of GSK-3 inhibitors in clinical trials have been recently reviewed [5]. GSK-3 is a complicated target as it is involved in many biological processes from neurology, diab

  Recently, a G-protein-coupled receptor, GPR109a, was identified as a molecular target for niacin. Following this breakthrough, our group initiated a drug discovery program focused on the development of a high affinity ‘flush-free’ niacin-like agonist. Previously, we reported on the identification of

  2022-05-31

  

  Heterocysts provide the required microoxic environment for the oxygen-sensitive N2-fixing nitrogenase enzyme complex. This environment is formed during heterocyst development. Developing heterocysts inactivate photosystem II and degrade antenna pigments, thereby decreasing oxygenic photosynthesis (F

  The dramatic increase in the development of EAAT inhibitors and substrates over the last several years can likely be attributed to a number of experimental advances. Firstly, the isolation of the individual EAAT clones allowed each subtype to be selectively examined in well-characterized expression

  2022-05-31

  

  FFAR1 is highly expressed not only in β cells but also in α nrf2 keap1 (Segerstolpe et al., 2016), which gives the interesting perspective that 20-HETE may function both as an autocrine and as a paracrine regulator of islet cell function (Figure 1A), i.e., acting in symphony with the many other int

  2022-05-31

  

  In contrast to short-term effects, long-term exposure of beta cells to FFAs impairs insulin secretion and triggers apoptosis [13]. The deleterious effects of FFAs have been linked to altered glucose/fatty (R)-(+)-Etomoxir sodium salt oxidation cycle [13], decreased NADPH content [14], endoplasmic re

  The post-translational modification O-GlcNAcylation is also dependent upon glucose fluctuations. O-GlcNAcylation has been linked to insulin resistance and glucose toxicity in diabetes and its comorbidities [11]. O-GlcNAcylation is a dynamic modification tightly regulated by the nutritional sensor UD

  The bFGF-induced upregulation of both GR and MR levels observed in our study raises a question regarding whether the simultaneous augmentation of the two receptors has a physiological and/or medical significance. It has been suggested that MR stimulates intracellular signaling pathways to minimize s

  Beside these studies related to food, several groups examined the role of ghrelin in the actions of psychostimulants. Modulation of the ghrelin system and food restriction alter locomotor sensitization, DA release in the NAc, and CPP induced by cocaine, amphetamine, and nicotine (Abizaid et al., 201

  A model substance often used in the studies of oxidative processes in erythrocytes is tert-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BHP), which, being lipophilic, passes easily across the erythrocyte membrane [9]. In erythrocytes treated with t-BHP (0.1–3mM) for less than 1h, a dramatic decline in the reduced glutath

  The role of GJs in liver fibrogenesis was studied recently. Studies showed a significant decrease in liver fibrosis in Cx32 knockout mice compared to wild-type mice. Although the mechanism underlying this protective effect of Cx32 deletion is not clear, reduced oxidative stress was suggested as a po

  Ning et al. showed that LPC 18:1 appeared to increase insulin release through both GPR119-dependent and -independent mechanisms (Ning et al., 2008). In our study, we have shown that not only GPR119 but also GPR40 and GPR55 participate in LPC-stimulated insulin secretion (Fig. 4, Fig. 5) and target p

  The ability of GPX4 and other selenoproteins to be selectively induced by ferroptotic stimuli suggests that the stress-induced increase in the transcription of a number of putative, “antioxidant” selenoproteins is an adaptive homeostatic, but insufficient response to prevent cell death in the face o
