  Two distinct mechanisms have been described for niacin’s macrophage-based actions [21,22]. First, niacin blocks recruitment of macrophages to atherosclerotic lesions. Second, niacin upregulates macrophage ABCA1 and ABCG1, transporters involved in reverse cholesterol transport. Upregulation of choles

  In contrast to short-term effects, long-term exposure of beta cells to FFAs impairs insulin secretion and triggers apoptosis [13]. The deleterious effects of FFAs have been linked to altered glucose/fatty 3mb oxidation cycle [13], decreased NADPH content [14], endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress [15]

  Several studies have found decreased astroglial and neuronal cell numbers and beta lactamase damage after OP exposure. Neuronal loss and brain lesions increase proportionally to the severity and duration of OP-induced seizures (Albuquerque et al., 2006, Carpentier et al., 2000, Gullapalli et al., 20

  The experiments indicate that a major component of the vasodilatation is due to antagonism of α 1-adrenoceptors. Evidence for α1-adrenoceptor antagonism is that vasodilatation was observed in serine threonine protein kinase preconstricted with α1-adrenoceptor agonists, phenylephrine or methoxamine,

  Voltage-dependent anion channel VDAC is a ubiquitous protein showing well conserved structural and functional properties in spite of major variations in its sequence (for review see [50]). Most of what we know about VDAC electrophysiological properties (for reviews, see [51], [52]) was initially

  Gap junction channels exhibit different types of gating properties. One alternative mechanism that should be mentioned is loop gating in which the extracellular loop of connexin assumes a configuration to form a narrow pathway for closure of unopposed hemichannels [53] and docked junction channels [

  In addition to the robust intracellular calcium mobilisation, DHA and TUG-891 also induced MMP-9 granules release and superoxide production, supporting a key role of calcium in bovine neutrophil defense responses (Burgos et al., 2011).

  Introduction Isoprenoid structures play an essential role in biology and over 30,000 natural products of this class are known (Greenhagen et al., 2003). Like other animals, insects require these compounds for many disparate processes, including electron transport (e.g., ubiquinones), protein glyc

  Conclusions Our in vitro and in vivo data collectively demonstrate that zifaxaban is effective in preventing thrombus formation via direct and specific inhibition of FXa in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, zifaxaban has a potency that is similar to that of rivaroxaban and shows a similar or

  Introduction Excitatory pyramidal neurons are generated in the cortical ventricular zone and migrate into the cortical plate alongside the radial glial processes (Chanas-Sacre et al., 2000, Hartfuss et al., 2001, Noctor et al., 2001, Rakic, 1972, Tan et al., 1998). Neuronal migration determines t

  Beside its role in NF-κB and IL-1β activation, the NRLP3 pathway is closely involved in another essential pathophysiologic mechanism such as the cellular calcium homeostasis. Full activation of the NRLP3 inflammasome requires decreased extracellular K concentrations resulting in decreased osmotic pr

  Results and discussion Conclusions TZDs represent a well-studied group of antidiabetic agents. Based on previous observations of the ability of some TZDs to activate FFAR1, we designed five scaffolds consisting of the TZD head, a linker, and a carefully selected privileged structure. For the p

  Glucose uptake, a critical metabolic control point in glycolysis, is mediated by the GLUT (SLC2) family of integral membrane transporters (Mueckler and Thorens, 2013). GLUT1 (SLC2A1), one of the most well-studied members of the SLC2 family, exhibits a wide tissue distribution; cell surface expressio

  After the origin of the family of genes for receptors for peptides similar to glucagon, the genes have not remained static. Not only have their sequences evolved, but also like peptides similar to glucagon (Irwin, 2001, Irwin, 2009, Irwin, 2012, Ng et al., 2010, Hwang et al., 2013), the numbers of g
