  Studies conducted in our laboratory, thus far, have shown that HKDC1 is broadly expressed [28]. Using the first developed HKDC1 mouse model, we found that complete loss of HKDC1 function is embryonic lethal, similar to other HKs [29,30]. Further studies using HKDC1 heterozygous knockout mice showed

  There are several limitations in our study. First, only the naturally occurring resistance-associated mutations in patients coinfected with HIV/HCV ephrin receptor 1b were analyzed. The result was only applicable to HCV genotype 1b, but not the HCV genotype 1a patients. We did not analyze the effec

  In order to study the role of haspin’s kinase activity in mitosis (and other cellular processes) and its potential role in cancer, we sought to identify and optimize inhibitors. Utilizing a recently developed time-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET) high throughput screening (H

  For some time, it was known that membrane-bound guanylate cyclases (GCs) of photoreceptor reductase enzyme in the retina respond to changes in the [Ca]. Lolley and Racz observed that synthesis of cyclic GMP (cGMP) was stimulated at only low [Ca], concluding that Ca has an inhibitory effect on th

  Of special interest is that riociguat and NO donors decreased the phosphorylation of many proteins in human platelets. This aspect is presently under further investigation but a few comments can be made already here. Of the extensive spectrum and diversity of human protein kinases and protein phosph

  As part of our discovery efforts searching for small molecule GPR119 agonists, we analyzed active pharmacophores of known agonists from the literature, and found that -methylsulfonylphenyl and substituted 4-hydroxyl piperidine are common fragments. In our initial efforts, we linked these two fragme

  GPR119 agonistic activity was evaluated for the human GPR119 receptor in a cell-based cAMP assay. The results expressed the potency as EC values and the inherent activity (IA) as percentages which were compared to the test compound with oleoylethanolamide (OEA), an endogenous ligand of GPR119 (defin

  Flavonoid function Antioxidants are compounds - when present at a lower concentration compared oxidizable substrate - that delay or prevent oxidation of the substrate [14], [106]. Antioxidants act as nucleophiles to reduce an oxidative molecule to prevent its interaction with another molecule [14

  Ning et al. showed that LPC 18:1 appeared to increase insulin release through both GPR119-dependent and -independent mechanisms (Ning et al., 2008). In our study, we have shown that not only GPR119 but also GPR40 and GPR55 participate in LPC-stimulated insulin secretion (Fig. 4, Fig. 5) and target p

  2022-03-14

  

  To help resolve the question of simple binding versus transport, we reasoned that if quercetin is transported by GLUT1, we should be able to block its uptake by other GLUT1 inhibitors. We initially investigated the effects of two newly identified GLUT1 inhibitors, BAY-876 and WZB-117. WZB-117 was fi

  2022-03-14

  

  ETV5 plays an important role in tumorigenesis and metastasis. For example, chromosomal rearrangement of ETV5 which results in increased ETV5 level is believed as a common event driving human prostate cancer (Helgeson et al., 2008; Huang and Waknitz, 2009). Ghrelin/acyl-ghrelin also plays an importan

  In sharp contrast to these genetically altered animals, there are two types of living fish that appear to lack Band 3 in their red blood cells. These are the Lamprey [45] and the Hagfish [46,47]. While these fish normally occupy their respective niches, the presumed compensatory mechanisms, as with

  Both anxiety-like behavior and sucrose preference/intake were reduced in GPR40/FFAR1 KO male mice, while social behavior was normal in KO mice. These findings indicate that brain GPR40/FFAR1 is involved in the modulation of anxiety- and depression-like behavior in rodents. Previous studies have demo

  Together, the epigenetic interplay revealed in this study enabled us to expand the therapeutic potential of EZH2is from hematological malignances to solid tumors. In solid tumors, EZH2i-driven transcriptional changes are shown to be dispensable of H3K27me-regulated transcriptional network. Instead,

  Compared to the other Tianeptine sodium receptor subtypes, the H3 receptor exhibits rather complex pharmacology, being subject to extensive splicing, leading to two major (H3-445 and H3-365) and possibly more functional human receptor isoforms; for a comprehensive review please see Leurs et al.
