  Phylogenetic analysis of vertebrate receptors for peptides similar to glucagon Genes for receptors for peptides similar to glucagon and other secretin-like hormones have been identified in a number of vertebrate species (Sivarajah et al., 2001, Chow et al., 2004, Irwin and Wong, 2005, Cardoso et

  2022-02-14

  

  The mechanism by which Piezo1 acts in the regulation of RBC volume is not firmly established. Its curved structure implies that it is activated by an increase in membrane tension (11), a mechanism indicated by electrophysiological measurements (16). However, the RBC membrane mechanics at its physiol

  Receptor interactions and binding mode of in hGPR40 were determined by docking studies. The compound was docked in the rebuilt co-crystal structure of hGPR40 (PDB ID: ) using MOE for loop modeling and energy minimization and Glide for molecular docking. The docking site used for the docking simulat

  2022-02-14

  

  Type II diabetes is characterized by an inability to maintain glucose homeostasis due to insulin desensitization and/or insufficient insulin secretion. GPR40, also known as free fatty Estradiol receptor 1 (FFAR1), is a member of the G-protein-coupled lipid-activated family of receptors and is prima

  Thrilled by these promising results, our quest for discovering new PPAR-γ/FFAR1 co-agonists was directed towards exploring the other two new scaffolds. So, in this proposed manuscript, we will describe our efforts regarding the synthesis, biological evaluation and molecular docking studies of the be

  Importance of iron and lipoxygenase in ferroptosis What remains to be somewhat controversial is the role of iron and lipoxygenases (LOX) in the death process, specifically in lipid peroxidation. So far, iron chelators have been repeatedly shown to halt ferroptosis (hence its name) induced by chem

  MAP4Ks act at the level of MST1/2 to phosphorylate LATS1/2 and regulate the Hippo pathway (Box 1). Of particular interest is the involvement of MAP4K4, a key metabolic regulator [88] and common polymorphisms in the MAP4K4 locus are associated with T2D and insulin resistance [89] in adipogenesis. In

  Substrate Interactions Outside of the Catalytic Cleft As for other types of protein–protein interactions, kinase–substrate docking interactions can occur through large binding interfaces or through recognition of short linear sequence motifs. For kinases with a large number of substrates, the use

  The isoenzyme hGSTP1-1 is an attractive drug target due to its high levels of disease association (target validation) and druggability (target tractability) properties [5,6,[17], [18], [19], [20], [21]]. hGSTP1-1 functions as a homodimer protein [18]. Each monomer has two domains, an α/β domain (N-t

  GSK-3 Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) is a ubiquitous serine/threonine kinase that is involved in multiple signaling pathways that are crucial for cellular metabolism and proliferation (Doble and Woodgett, 2003, Frame and Cohen, 2001, Grimes and Jope, 2001, Woodgett, 1990). GSK-3 is known to d

  In this study, we further expanded the antitumor bioactivity, with the BALB/c S-180 tumor model, which is long-established due to its highly aggressive in all strains of laboratory mice and rats (Cui et al., 2003). We investigated the tumor-regressing ability of β-glucan by different modes of admini

  Recent studies revealed that synthetic oligomeric Aβ1-42 decreased GLT-1 expression and promoted mislocalization of GLT-1 from the cell surface of primary astrocytes, leading to glutamate dyshomeostasis in synapses (Abdul et al., 2009, Scimemi et al., 2013). To address the cause for reduction of ast
