  Animal models of NASH The human NAS system (see above) is largely reproducible in NAFLD mouse models [37] and, therefore, has been increasingly applied in the preclinical assessment of liver histological responses to test compounds. In general, the NAS system is well suited for this purpose, alt

  The effects of these steroids, namely the decrease in the peak and acceleration of desensitization could be observed in IGly activated by 100 μM glycine (concentration close to EC50). However, with an increase in glycine to 500 μM (a concentration close to saturating), the effect of steroids on the

  The dopamine substrate currents (IDA – IControl) were determined at different holding potentials (IV curves) in transfected HT22 cells (Fig. 5A). The plot for HT22 cells transfected with DAT exhibited the typical behavior of dopamine transporter currents (Ingram et al., 2002; Sonders et al., 1997),

  The small conductance Ca-activated K+ (SKCa; SK, SKCa, KCa2) channels are recognized as a subfamily of KCa channels (Bond, Maylie, & Adelman, 1999). The SKCa channel is encoded by three distinct genes, KCNN1, KCNN2, and KCNN3 with different sensitivities toward apamin. Different with BKCa channels

  By measuring the accumulation of unprenylated Rap1a as a surrogate marker for the inhibition of FPPS [8], [9], [10], [11], we found that upregulation of FPPS expression in Hela cells reduced the accumulation of unprenylated Rap1a in response to 24h' treatment with 0–50μM ZOL. As expected, cells cult

  The ability to metastasize is the defining character of a cancer and the leading cause for resultant mortality. It is hypothesized that a rare subset of cancer cells, often operationally referred to as “cancer stem cells” (CSCs), are responsible for sustaining cancer metastasis and recurrence [1]. T

  Based on the in vitro findings summarized here, we posited that, in the intact brain, release of ROS from iron-laden astrocytes to the local neuropil elicits oxidative damage and degeneration of indigent dopaminergic projections and other vulnerable neuronal elements (Schipper, 2001). Of particular

  We demonstrated that bilirubin, the product of heme metabolism by HO-1, exerted a potent suppression of NADPH oxidase activity (Fig. 2B). Different from the down-regulation of NADPH oxidase subunit by HO-1 induction in macrophages [24], the protein levels of the NADPH oxidase subunits in vascular en

  Conflict of interest Funding Introduction Heme is an essential molecule for cellular metabolism involving oxygen and electron transfer [1]. However, free heme is a potent pro-oxidant that catalyzes the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) leading to cellular damage [2]. Heme oxygenas

  2021-10-12

  

  Intestinal epithelium renewal is tightly controlled by Hedgehog genes. Three Hedgehog genes are highly conserved in mouse and human, including Sonic hedgehog (Shh), Indian hedgehog (Ihh), and Desert hedgehog (Dhh) [13]. Hedgehogs bind to Patched (PTCH) [[14], [15], [16]], which unlike conventional r

  Similar to Rac1, Cdc42, and RhoA, expression of Rnd3 is also increased under hypoxic conditions, involving Hif1α mediated transcriptional activity. Here, downregulation of Rnd3 abolishes hypoxia-induced cell migration via a mechanism involving the chemokine receptor C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 4

  It is well known that 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) is a tumor promoting agent of skin carcinogenesis in rodents [12]. TPA stimulates a variety of cellular functions in cancer cells, including cell motile activity [13], [14]. In our recent study, when liver epithelial cells were treated

  Any nae inhibitor damage, including that caused by β-amyloid, triggers activation of microglia, the resident immune cells of the CNS. These cells cluster around amyloid plaques, in which they extend cytoplasmic processes (Combs, 2009). The significance of this response is controversial, but one poss
