  Drosophila is a well-established model to investigate the molecular and cellular defects underlying human neurodevelopmental disorders (Oortveld et al., 2013, van der Voet et al., 2014). Here, we establish Drosophila as a model for understanding the mechanisms linking mutations in KDM5 family protei

  2021-10-08

  

  In various models, histamine has been shown to induce chemotaxis. This was first appreciated over 40 years’ ago in studies with eosinophils (Clark et al., 1977). At that time, only histamine H1 and histamine H2 receptors were recognized and studies with ligands to these receptors indicated that neit

  In an attempt to further optimize interactions in the lipophilic P4 pocket, we next prepared compounds – () which possessed the preferred stereochemistry at P4, but with R-groups of varying size and shape. In addition to providing important structural information for maximizing potency, these compou

  The vessel wall protein collagen, which becomes exposed to circulating platelets after vascular injuries, is a very strong platelet agonist. It stimulates all relevant platelet activation steps predominantly via the GPVI/FcRγ-chain receptor complex through an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation

  Increasing number of experimental data reveal that both ROS and RNS are multifunctional molecules playing a substantial role in plant physiology and particularly in seed biology (Bailly et al., 2008; Šírová et al., 2011; Yu et al., 2014). Dual function of RNS can be described by the model of “nitros

  Likewise, and considering the aforementioned biological actions of ketogenic diet-derived MCFA on neuronal excitability, it could be postulated that specific receptors for fatty acids could also be involved. For example, the GPCR for medium to long chain fatty acids, FFA1/GPR40, might also contribut

  2021-10-08

  

  Among prostaglandins (PG), PGD2 remained the most elusive species for a long time and was initially regarded as having negligible biological activity [1]. In 1974 its inhibitory effect on platelet aggregation was discovered by Smith et al. [2] and Mills & McFarlain [3], and both pressor and depresso

  2021-10-08

  

  The GLU-Epac transgenic mouse enabled us to monitor cAMP responses to GPR119 ligands in individual primary cultured L-cells. Not all L-cells were found to be responsive to AR231453, suggesting there may be a subpopulation of L-cells that do not express functional GPR119. There was a tendency for sma

  Accordingly, a bioassay-guided approach was been used to study the bioactive compounds in VAS contribute to the α-glucosidase inhibitory and antioxidant activity. The 95% ethanol extraction of VAS was successively partitioned with petroleum ether, ethyl acetate and n-butanol. Ethyl acetate fraction

  2021-10-07

  

  PBI-4050 is an agonist of GPR40 and acts as an antagonist or inverse agonist of GPR84. It cannot be excluded that other targets besides GPR40 and GPR84 could be implicated in the mechanism of action of PBI-4050 and could be explored in future studies. However, the present study, and in particular th

  At the heart of ferroptosis is a process of lethal lipid peroxidation, which is the oxidative addition of molecular oxygen (O2) to lipids, such as polyunsaturated fatty acyl tails in phospholipids. The first descriptions of such enzymatic reactions were in 1955 by Peterson and colleagues [50] and Ro

  In regards to animals, several studies have reported the peroxisomal localization of FPS (Krisans et al., 1994, Olivier et al., 2000, Kovacs et al., 2007). Transfections of mammalian cells with the rat short FPS isoform followed by immunodetection localized the enzyme to the peroxisome (Olivier et a

  We also wonder what function(s) both FPPS1 and FPPS2 genes had in leaf. As some research indicated that the alpha-farnesene was also detected in ripe leaf of crabapple (Malus sp.) (Wu et al., 2012), one or both of them may be related to the synthesis of alpha-farnesene in leaf. To our knowledge, the

  The coenzyme S-adenosylmethionine (SAM)-binding pocket of Set7 is connected to the histone-tail binding groove by a conserved lysine-channel, similarly observed in vSET (Figures 2D and S3). The Set7 SAM-binding pocket is negatively charged as observed in other known HMTase structures. However, the b
