  Acknowledgements Introduction The glutathione S-transferase (GST, EC 2.5.1.18) family of multifunctional enzymes plays a particularly important role in cellular detoxification [1]. Over-expression of the GSTP1 isoform characterizes many human tumor cell lines derived from stomach, brain and co

  2022-03-21

  

  A number of in vivo studies have investigated the antitumor activity of distinct GSK-3 inhibitors in a variety of cancer cell line-derived tumor xenograft models [14], [21], [22], [24], [33], [39], [40]. These studies utilized toolkit GSK-3 inhibitors as monotherapies. Although inhibition of tumor g

  2022-03-21

  

  The endocannabinoid system (ECS) consists of cannabinoid (CB)1 and CB2 receptors, their endogenous ligands anandamide and 2-arachidonylglycerol, and the synthesizing and degrading enzymes for these ligands. Cannabinoids and the ECS are involved in the regulation of GI motility in physiological and p

  We have previously established the pharmacokinetic profile and effective dose of MNF in the rat [43] and demonstrated the effectiveness of MNF as an anticancer drug in dexamethasone acetate and xenograft models [44]. Moreover, MNF was found to effectively block GPR55 signaling in tumor cells [21]. T

  Moreover, there is a third possible GnRH agonist target – the endometrium. The human endometrium has been shown to express high levels of both GnRH and GnRH receptors (Maggi et al., 2016), and GnRH agonists affect the function of the urokinase-type plasminogen activator/plasminogen activator inhibit

  Such responses have led to the idea that elasmobranchs may be glucose intolerant. However, certain species, such as the North Pacific spiny dogfish (Squalus suckleyi; note that the species used in this study was previously referred to as Squalus acanthias but a study by Ebert et al. (2010) provided

  2022-03-21

  

  Regulation of pancreatic α and β cell mass has been extensively studied and hotly debated, due to potential therapeutic implications. Early claims of Angptl8 as “betatrophin” and Angptl4 as a regulator of glucagon secretion and α cell proliferation (Yi et al., 2013, Ben-Zvi et al., 2015) have not st

  In conclusion, this is the first study performed in acute limbic seizure models that shows the ability of DAG to dose-dependently attenuate pilocarpine-induced seizures, albeit at a higher concentration as ghrelin (Portelli et al., 2012b). We also establish that DAG's anticonvulsant mechanism of act

  2022-03-21

  

  The absence of differences between GalR1 knockout and wild type mice in kainic acid-induced seizures suggests that GalR1 do not interfere with the seizure-inducing action of kainic acid. Postsynaptic kainate receptors are excitatory ionotropic glutamate receptors and their activation leads to seizur

  2022-03-21

  

  Cellular inhibition is caused by the hyperpolarization of the cell and is mediated by both synaptic and extrasynaptic GABAARs. Synaptic GABAARs are sensitive to high concentrations of GABA released at the synapse and mediate phasic inhibition. In contrast, extrasynaptic GABAARs mediate tonic inhibit

  In cancer cells, HIF-1α upregulates HK-II expression by binding to the hypoxia-responsive element in the HK-II promoter region to adapt to hypoxic conditions [20]. In the present study, we observed that mangiferin transiently increased HIF-1α expression in endothelial cells, suggesting another possi
