  Even though for almost 30 years GnRH was considered the main neuropeptide regulating gonadotropin release in vertebrates, Tsutsui et al. (2000) discovered, in the Japanese quail, Coturnix japonica, a hypothalamic neuropeptide that directly inhibits gonadotropin release, and thus named as gonadotropi

  2021-11-30

  

  Introduction Glucokinase (GCK, hexokinase IV) is a monomeric enzyme that catalyzes the ATP-dependent conversion of glucose to glucose 6-phosphate, the first and rate-limiting step of glycolysis in the liver and pancreas [1,2]. GCK was first discovered in the early 1960's, and shortly thereafter i

  AKR1D1 is very highly expressed in human liver and based upon the observations outlined above, with respect to other steroid hormone pre-receptor metabolising enzymes, it is entirely plausible that AKR1D1 could represent a critical regulatory step in the control of metabolic phenotype within the liv

  It is important to underline that Almorexant receptor although ghrelin increases the motivation to eat even in fed state, its effects on food intake and reward are blunted in obese animal models (Zigman et al., 2016). This emphasizes also the interconnection between homeostatic regulation of food i

  2021-11-30

  

  Murine models of sickle disease have been valuable tools in the study of human SCD pathogenesis [15], [16], and will continue to be central to development of novel approaches to disease treatment. The SAD mouse model of sickle disease is particularly remarkable for its erythrocyte dehydration phenot

  Introduction Channel activity Since initial reports of the Ca2+-activated K+ permeability of erythrocytes (see Gardos, 1958), several ‘criteria’ have been established to certify K+ fluxes as being due to the Gárdos channel. For example, the requirement for Ca2+ at the intracellular face of the c

  At the end of experiments rats were injected high dose of sodium pentobarbital (90mg/kg) and the rat’s head was cut and frozen in −20°C for 20min with the injecting tube in situ before section. The location of the tip of the injecting tube was verified and all the tips of the injecting tube were in

  In perimenstrual catamenial epilepsy, there is emerging evidence to suggest that P withdrawal plays a key role in seizure exacerbations occurring around the time of menstruation (Backstrom et al., 1984, Bonuccelli et al., 1989, Scharfman and MacLusky, 2006). The mechanisms underlying ovarian cycle-r

  The Farnesoid X receptor (FXR): identification and ligands The Farnesoid X receptor (FXR) belongs to a family of proteins called Nuclear Receptors (NRs). NRs are a class of ligand-activated transcription factors, which transactivate networks of target genes, thereby mediating a wide range of phys

  We sought to deduce the role of membrane lipid determinants on endo- and exocytosis by applying a combination of metabolic (lipid) engineering approaches and biophysical methods, e.g. classical optical imaging technologies and high-resolution time-resolved patch-clamp/capacitance measurements.

Color and shape combinations used for network nodes (i.e., persons) allow one to simultaneously discern past

  Introduction Adenosine-5′-triphosphate (ATP) is an organic molecule (nucleoside triphosphate) which consists of adenine, ribose, and three phosphoric iap apoptosis residues. ATP serves as a temporary carrier of energy in all living cells, so it is a common substance in any organism. In the cells,

  Introduction Heme is an important small molecule and an essential cofactor for a variety of enzymes (George, 1948; Morrison and Stotz, 1954; Maehly, 1952; Igo et al., 1961). During cellular respiration, heme populates cytochromes and serves as an electron acceptor in the electron transport chain (M
