  It is important to underline that bcl-xl inhibitor although ghrelin increases the motivation to eat even in fed state, its effects on food intake and reward are blunted in obese animal models (Zigman et al., 2016). This emphasizes also the interconnection between homeostatic regulation of food intak

  Genetic manipulation/variation of the ghrelin system and alcohol-related outcomes Genetic manipulation of the ghrelin system (either the peptide or the receptor gene) via knockout rodent models has provided further insight into the role of this system in alcohol seeking and consummatory behaviors

  In the course of our ongoing attempts to photolabel allosteric binding sites of γ-aminobutyric NKY 80 type A (GABAA) receptors, we were met with the need for relatively large (near mg) quantities of recombinant protein. Rather than establishing a stable cell line we sought to optimise the process o

  2021-09-17

  

  Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by progressive obstruction of airflow, not fully reversible, which is accompanied by a chronic inflammatory response, induced by deleterious particles or gases, in airways and lung parenchyma. The most important risk factor for COPD is

  2021-09-17

  

  Chicoric Imiquimod hydrochloride (CA) is a di-acylated hydroxycinnamoyl tartaric acid ester [12] found in a variety of plant species, especially within the Astereceae family [13]. Of interest for this study, Sonchus oleraceus and Bidens pilosa plants, from Astereceae family, were used. Both S. olera

  2021-09-16

  

  NeuroHIV is initiated by HIV crossing the blood–brain barrier (BBB) to enter the CNS. This is thought to occur primarily via the transmigration of infected CD14+CD16+ monocytes (Williams, 2014), using the monocytes as “Trojan Horses” (Peluso, 1985), although some studies suggest alternate routes of

  2021-09-16

  

  Multiple sclerosis MS is an immune-mediated disease of the human CNS with a pathological signature featuring immunocyte infiltration, altered cytokine production, oligodendroglial degeneration, astrogliosis, microglial activation, multifocal demyelination and axonal degeneration (Schipper, 2004b)

  HO-1 acted as an intracellular defender against oxidative stress-induced cell damage. To elucidate the effects of HO-1 in ropivacaine-induced cytotoxicity in neuronal cells, HO-1 activity was inhibited using a specific HO-1 inhibitor zinc protoporphyrin, ZnPP. Our results indicate that ZnPP treatmen

  We have previously reported on the effects of replacing the isoquinoline P2∗ moiety with a naphthalene ring and modifying the connectivity for this element to the P2 proline ring, as demonstrated by compounds – (). Therein, it was hypothesized that the reduced potency observed with – when compared t

  All the compounds –, , , –, , – and – were assayed for their potential cytotoxicity at a single dose of 10 µM on Huh7 cells. Interestingly, all compounds proved to be non toxic, with the exception of and which exhibited high cellular toxicity and therefore were excluded from further experiments (a

  2021-09-16

  

  Failure of antioxidant defenses to remove exogenous ROS produced by redox cycling chemicals either by being inhibited by those compounds or overwhelmed by an excess ROS, will disrupt the balance between antioxidant/prooxidant system within the organisms leading to oxidative damage (Livingstone, 2003

  2021-09-16

  

  Etoposide (VP-16), a semisynthetic podophyllotoxin derivative agent, is widely used as a chemotherapic treatment for many cancers (Hande, 1998). VP-16 has been known that its activity is mediated by the interaction with topoisomerase II (an ATP-dependent nuclear enzyme) which regulates DNA topology

  2021-09-16

  

  The ER is responsible for calcium storage, lipid and protein biosynthesis, and the folding, assembly, and maturation of proteins [23], and ER stress is one of the main causes in T2DM, which leads to β-cell apoptosis and dysfunction [[5], [6], [7]]. In this study, TG was used as an ER stress inducer.

  Na+/K+-ATPase, 5416 and astrocytic glutamate transporters act together to maintain sodium and potassium gradients and the proper activities of EAAT1 and EAAT2 (Rose et al., 2009; Sheean et al., 2013); nevertheless, in present study, Na+/K+-ATPase activity was shown to be increased as from 24 h.
