  The known crystal structures of class C GPCR VFTs do not include attached TM domains, therefore current conformational data may not accurately reflect the dynamics of extracellular domains in full-length receptors. Nevertheless, compelling mechanisms of signal transduction can still be postulated. S

  2024-12-24

  

  Introduction The apelin receptor (angiotensin receptor-like 1, APJ) is a seven transmembrane receptor (7TMR) that belongs to the class A peptidergic G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) superfamily [1]. The endogenous ligands of APJ are the different isoforms of apelin (namely apelin-13, −17, and −

  Additional support for a role of HMGN1 in enhancing DNA repair comes from studies of transcription-coupled repair (TCR) in human cells. Lesions in the template strand of DNA induced by UV light stall the movement of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) and interrupt transcription. Removal of these transcripti

  2024-12-24

  

  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

  2024-12-24

  

  Aβ has been reported to decrease insulin receptors and impair insulin signaling in neurons, preventing phosphorylation of Akt and glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK-3β), downstream of insulin signaling, and to increase phosphorylation of tau protein causing neurofibrillary tangles (Tokutake et al., 20

  With regard to participation of the 12S-lipoxygenase in diabetes mellitus, inconsistent results have been obtained. Earlier studies demonstrated that the leukocyte-type 12S-lipoxygenase is specifically expressed in pancreatic b-cells and is involved in regulating glucose-stimulated insulin secretion

  2024-12-24

  

  We recently identified a G9A-dependent epigenetic mechanism for transcriptional activation of the serine pathway in cancer cells (Ding et al., 2013). G9A, also known as EHMT2 and KMT1C, is a H3K9 methyltransferase that has a primary role in catalyzing H3K9me1 and H3K9me2 in euchromatin (Shinkai and

  The Cebu Longitudinal Health and Nutrition Survey (CLHNS) genome-wide association study investigated the genetic loci associated with plasma adiponectin in 1776 unrelated Filipino women. Adiponectin was strongly associated with three genetic positions: the gene CDH13 (rs3865188, P ≤ 7.2 × 10−16), ne

  We also demonstrate that PACAP treatment dose-dependently disrupts performance in the 5CSRTT, suggestive of attentional deficits, another core feature of mood and anxiety disorders. Treatment with PACAP (.5–1.0 µg) decreased the percentage of correct responses, increased the percentage of trials in

  A promising target that is involved in the biosynthesis of the precursor LTA4 is the 5-LO-activating protein (FLAP), which in vivo is seemingly indispensable for LT formation [8], [9]. FLAP, a member of the MAPEG family (membrane-associated proteins in eicosanoid and glutathione metabolism), is an i

  At first, the APC is a 310kDa protein divided into three domains such as N-terminal, central core and C-terminal domain [102], plays a major role to regulate the Wnt signaling pathway in human cancer by translating β-catenin from the CDK5 inactive analog to the nucleus [103]. The SIRT1 regulates th

  Phagosomes acquire some hydrolases early during their journey from the cell surface to lysosomes. An example for such hydrolase is cathepsin H which is most concentrated in the early phagosome at a pH of approximately 6.3 (Claus et al., 1998), the pH optimum of enzyme activity (Schwartz and Barrett,

  The role of apelin in hepatic diseases The involvement of the apelin/APJ system in liver physiology and pathology has been proven in numerous studies (Table 6). For instance, in the experiment of Emam et al. [63] on rats suffering from hepatic injury, apelin decreased the levels of ALT, AST and L
