  Ghrelin interactions with the opioid system The endogenous opioid system is an important regulator of appetite and metabolism (Bodnar, 2017, Nogueiras et al., 2012). In fact, several pharmacological studies have demonstrated that agonists of the three opioid receptors (mu, kappa, and delta) incre

  Several transgenic and knockout/congenic mouse models have been generated in order to assess the role of FFAR1 for proper insulin secretion and maintenance of glucose homeostasis. The results obtained with three different receptor knockout mouse models were not consistent. The protection against hig

  Discussion By using ultra-deep sequencing, we conducted a thorough assessment of HCV-NS3 protease variants in chronic PI-naïve patients infected with HCV-1a and HCV-1b under telaprevir-based triple therapy at baseline and after 4weeks of treatment.

  Our study expands our current knowledge of Ras-like small GTPase molecules involved in TLR-mediated responses in macrophages. We found that steady-state levels of Rap2a mRNA and protein undergo alterations after stimuli with TLR agonists. Although statistically significant, the effect of LPS-induced

  Chronic exposure of cells to cytotoxic drugs can result in the selection of multiple phenotypic and genetic changes. Thus, the use of MCF7/VP cells, which were selected for resistance to VP-16, was potentially problematic. However, a thorough characterization of MCF7/VP cells demonstrated that they

  Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder and characterized by the presence of abnormal filamentous protein inclusions in nerve cells of the brain [2]. The neuropathological hallmarks of AD were first reported by Alois Alzheimer and date back to 1907 [3], [4]. These inclusions are for

  Although resembling a differential symbiotic relationship, interplay between prostate tumour CAFs promotes PKM2/HIF-1-driven transcriptional regulation in prostate cancer cells that exploit lactate produced by CAFs and undergo epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) [21]. Although recent observat

  Obestatin, synthetized mainly in the gastrointestinal tract, participates in the regulation of metabolic functioning at both central and peripheral levels (food intake, pancreatic activity or/and adipocytes proliferation) (Granata et al., 2008; Li et al., 2011). It is involved in the complex gut-bra

  Conformational changes are observed in the LBDs after ligand binding, including partial cleft closure for GluN2A and complete cleft closure for GluN1. For GluN2A, additional conformational rearrangements in the protein and ligand may be required before the ligand can be accommodated within lobe 2. F

  Ca2+ influx through glutamate receptors is thought to play a critical role in synaptogenesis and in the formation of neuronal circuitry during early development[45]. Because AMPA receptors might contribute to these processes, particularly at times and in cells in which NMDA receptor expression is

  Activation of FXR or TGR5 inhibits inflammatory response via repressing NF-κB activity [1]. FXR is not expressed or expressed at a very low level in macrophages [45] (data not shown), but highly expressed in hepatocytes. In contrast, TGR5 is expressed in macrophages but not in hepatocytes.
