  Another possible effect of niacin is in altering immune cell trafficking; as it has been suggested that niacin therapy quells endothelial cell activation (Digby et al., 2010, Ganji et al., 2009) and thereby suppresses inflammatory cell recruitment (Wu et al. 2010). However, the impact of niacin on l

  2022-04-02

  

  In vertebrates, three cognate receptors or receptor-like sequences have been identified with distinct distributions and functions (Millar, 2005, Neill et al., 2001). Only two types of GnRHR occur in mammals, though (Morgan and Millar, 2004). The mammalian type I GnRHR shares over 80% amino S1RA ide

  Introduction Glycoproteins represent a staggeringly small fraction of proteins analyzed by high-resolution techniques despite high concentrations at the cell surface and critical roles in many human diseases. Though one-half or more of all human proteins are predicted to contain a carbohydrate ch

  Interestingly, mGlu2 and mGlu3 receptors differ notably by their cellular distribution. Whereas mGlu2 receptors are mostly neuronal, mGlu3 receptors are expressed both in glia and in neurons. In neurons, mGlu3 receptors are present at the post-synapse and in presynaptic elements (Tamaru et al., 2001

  Results Discussion Postsynaptic trafficking of AMPA receptors, a process responsible for maintaining the steady-state level of AMPA receptor synaptic transmission, is believed to also actively partake in glutamatergic synaptic plasticity in principal neurons, such the hippocampal CA1 cells. He

  2022-04-01

  

  The mammalian AMPA receptor protein family comprises four subunits, termed GluR-A through GluR-D (or GluR1 through GluR4), which form hetero-tetrameric receptor complexes Dingledine et al. 1999, Rosenmund et al. 1998. These subunits possess distinctive intracellular C-terminal domains that can be gr

  Introduction Human pathogenic Leishmania protozoa comprise 20 different species that are distributed throughout the world and cause the disease leishmaniasis [1]. Transmission primarily occurs through the bite of a female sand fly and clinical manifestations of the disease span from cutaneous lesio

  GR Is a Transcriptional Activator How GR activates some genes while repressing others remains unsettled after decades of study. While significant controversy exists regarding GR-mediated repression, a consensus model for transcriptional activation has emerged: GR activates transcription through s

  For many plasma membrane receptors including GPCRs, their density on the cell-surface is finely controlled by various transcriptional, post-transcriptional and post-translational mechanisms, and is often a determinant of overall receptor function in a cell. To date, the transcriptional regulation an

  Moreover, the ubiquitous CGP 53353 of the OTR and GHSR was also observed in hippocampal and hypothalamic primary culture, indicating that this expression pattern is likely due to basal activity of these receptors. GPCR trafficking under control conditions has been linked to biased signalling associa

  Recently, accumulated evidence has revealed a close link of FXR to gluconeogenesis. For example, activation of FXR by its agonist GW4064 improved hyperglycemia in db/db mice by repressing gluconeogenesis [15], and FXR agonist CDCA decreased transactivation activity of key gluconeogenic genes by indu
