  2021-12-21

  

  Curcumin is a major yellow pigment in turmeric ground rhizome of Curcuma longa Linn, which is used widely as a spice and coloring agent in several foods such as curry, mustard and potato chips as well as cosmetics and drugs (Okada et al., 2001, Joe et al., 2004). Curcumin represents a class of anti-

  2021-12-21

  

  Under most circumstances, NO is a potent endogenous vasodilator. Therefore, its involvement in an endothelium-dependent contraction seems paradoxical, to say the least. Soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC) is the major downstream target of NO; its inhibition results in the lack of vasoconstrictor response

  2021-12-21

  

  In addition to understanding the GEF-GAP cycle regulating Rho-family GTPases, studies have continued to address the role of the Rho-GDIs, which binds to the geranylgeranyl tail to sequester Rho-family GTPases from interacting with lipid membranes, preventing their activation. Whilst it would be temp

  While the specific set of challenges associated with deorphanization and transforming each poorly characterized GPCR into a useful drug target will be unique, much can be learned by considering how these issues have been addressed for other receptors. One group of poorly characterized GPCRs that hav

  Introduction Marijuana remains the most widely used illegal drug (Murray et al., 2007), and its validated targets include plasma membrane cannabinoid receptors, many of which are found in the central nervous system. The diverse physiological effects produced by marijuana and cannabinoid ligands s

  2021-12-21

  

  Little is known about the role of GPR35 in physiology and pathology. Using GPR35 knockout and wild-type mice showed that GPR35 activation by KYNA improves energy metabolism and inflammation, while demonstrated that GPR35 plays an important role in the development of angiotensin II-induced hyperten

  2021-12-21

  

  Natural products have been always the most important and productive sources of lead compounds for the development of drugs [[15], [16], [17]]. A variety of potent α-glucosidase inhibitors have been identified from natural products, such as quercetin, resveratrol, isorhamnetin, calein C and curcumin

  Some Gardos channel perplexities While much is known about the Gardos channel (inside Ca2+-activated K+ channel) and it's characteristics in human red blood 3-Methyladenine (e.g. [18,19]), there are a number of intriguing and unexplained phenomena that are in much need of study. One is that acti

  2021-12-20

  

  A phase I clinical trial has been completed for assessing CEP-26401 in cognitive impairment in healthy individuals without disclosing any results (NCT01903824). Although CEP-26401 is under clinical trial study, several projects are in progress for synthesizing novel irdabisant analogs in order to im

  2021-12-20

  

  Aberrant expression of HKII may be a required feature for cancer development and progression. Overexpression of HKII has been reported in tumor tissues of cancer patients with liver [9], ovary [8], [24] and larynx [25]. The clinical significance of HKII in cancer was noted as overexpression of HKII

  The prevalence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in p.C282Y homozygotes in North America is unknown. We determined the prevalence of anti-HCV antibody and HFE genotype and serum ferritin (SF) associations in non-Hispanic white participants in the Hemochromatosis and Iron Overload Screening (HEIRS

  Elevated methylglyoxal levels also contribute to carbonyl stress, cytotoxicity, DNA damage, apoptosis and cell death. These mechanisms may be important for normal aging of the nervous system as well as for the development of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease wher

  The biological actions of ghrelin are mainly due to its interaction with GHSR-1a (Howard et al., 1996). The pharmacological properties of D-Lys3-GHRP-6, a selective antagonist of GHSR-1a, have been extensively studied (Beck et al., 2004, Benso et al., 2007, Sibilia et al., 2006). To study the recept

  In a mouse model of hyperhomocysteinemia (a risk factor for the development of vascular dysfunction) it has been shown that myoendothelial communication is enhanced due to increased expression of Cx37 and IK1 p38 mapk inhibitor [], allowing the propagation of endothelial signals to VSMC and thereby

  Many neutral and acidophilic β-galactosidases have been purified from microorganisms [14], while only a few alkalophilic β-galactosidases have been reported [19]. An alkalophilic β-galactosidase, BGal_375, was obtained and researched for the characterization of its hydrolytic activity. BGal_375 show
