  2020-03-17

  

  Prostaglandin E receptor subtype 4 (EP4) is a transmembrane G-coupled protein receptor activated by prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). EP4 activation exerts anti-inflammatory effects in adipose tissue by dampening the levels of inflammatory chemokines [12]. In the mouse, EP4 deficiency aggravates fragmentatio

  2020-03-17

  

  Previously, we have described increased expression of both cytokine and chemokine mRNA (e.g. MCP-5 and fractalkine) in the left ventricle of male EP4-KO mice with dilated cardiomyopathy [2]. Takayama et al. [31] have shown that PGE2 potently inhibits cytokine/chemokine secretion (MCP-1, interleukin

  Proof-of-concept studies with disulfiram suggest the potential utility of DβH inhibitors for treatment of cocaine use disorder. In a study of 74 subjects stabilized on methadone and randomized into disulfiram and placebo groups for 10weeks, disulfiram treatment reduced cocaine-positive urines, and d

  The secondary objective of the present study was to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of multiple oral doses of 450-mg delafloxacin to reach steady state in healthy male and female subjects. After multiple dosing of oral delafloxacin, steady state was reached after 4 days of do

  Mammalian cells contain significant amounts of a relatively lesser known enzyme that shows marked specifity for ether lipids containing AA and other 20–22 carbon fatty acids. This enzyme is called CoA-independent transacylase (CoA-IT), and transfers polyunsaturated moieties of 20–22 carbons, typical

  2020-03-16

  

  Two GPCR subtypes of interest in the myocardium are the endothelin receptor (ETR) and the α1-adrenergic receptor (α1-AR). Upon ligand binding, these receptors canonically activate the Gαq protein leading to activation of phospholipase C, hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate into diacy

  Discussion Nowadays, data of uncommon EGFR mutations are limited, considering that patients carrying these rare alterations are usually excluded from clinical trials. Available survival data of activity of EGFR TKIs on this class of mutations, coming from a small number of usually retrospective s

  Because sex steroids and growth hormone play an important role in the development and maintenance of hepatic CYP450 enzyme expression and ER expression, it is possible that exposure to endocrine active agents during gestation and perinatally could alter expression of these proteins. Therefore, these

  A recent study revealed that in human glioma cells, DNA-PKcs interacted with the regulatory γ subunit of AMPK and positively regulated AMPK phosphorylation and activation under glucose-deprived conditions. This suggested that DNA-PK is an important regulator of AMPK activation in response to energy

  Such concerns do not apply to the anti-inflammatory actions shown by the agent, given that CR3465 proved effective in various models of inflammation including guinea pig, rat, and human.

  It is well-known that corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) exerts its biological functions through binding to type-1 (CRF1) and/or type-2 (CRF2) receptors. Several clinical evidences suggest the association of a high level of CRF and the onset of anxiety and depressive disorders.2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 S

  Although the findings detailed above provide ample evidence that the activity of the CRF1 receptor in the amygdala plays a role in the acute and chronic effects of alcohol exposure, several important areas of investigation remain understudied. The majority of the work on CRF1-alcohol interactions ha

  Dopamine activity in the PFC and striatum may be antagonistic, meaning that lower levels of dopamine in the striatum tend to correspond to higher levels of dopamine in the PFC and vice versa (Cools and D\'Esposito, 2011; Tunbridge et al., 2006). Human PET studies have reported that dopaminergic PFC
