  Acknowledgements Introduction Type 2 diabetes is a progressive metabolic disorder which is characterised by chronic hyperglycaemia due to relative insulin deficiency, insulin resistance and increased hepatic glucose production [1]. The metabolism of glucose by glycolysis increases the ATP:ADP

  2021-10-25

  

  3T3-L1 cells can be induced to differentiate into adipocytes by the appropriate hormonal treatment and they offer a useful in vitro model system for adipogenesis. GPR120 mRNA was detected in differentiated mature adipocytes but not in confluent preadipocytes (Fig. 3A). The level of GPR120 mRNA incre

  2021-10-25

  

  Gene expression of both GPR109A and GPR81 in adipocytes has been linked to PPARγ activation [22]. Treatment with the thiazolidinedione (TZD) PPARγ agonist, rosiglitazone, increases GPR109A and GPR81 expression, and knockdown of PPARγ suppresses receptor expression in fully differentiated human multi

  In addition to the role of TGR5, the FXR-FGF15/19 axis has been implicated in other aspects of glucose metabolism and metabolic disorders. In humans, both obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are associated with lower plasma FGF19 levels [67,68]. A derivative of the naturally occurring FXR ag

  2021-10-25

  

  Selective pharmacological inhibition of tonic currents indicated that the effects of gp120 are predominantly mediated by α5-containing GABAARs. The other dominant subtype that contributes to tonic current in the hippocampus, the δ-containing GABAAR, was unaffected by gp120 treatment. Additionally, i

  A selective inhibitor of mammalian histone deacetylase, trichostatin A, reduces GnRH mRNA expression Epigenetic mechanisms controlling GnRH expression have been reported, and these mechanisms may be involved in the development and maturation of GnRH neurons in the brain (Gan et al., 2012, Kurian

  2021-10-25

  

  The glyoxalase system has not yet been studied in E. histolytica or G. lamblia. Searches in the G. lamblia genome (GiardiaDB.org) revealed two genes encoding hydroxyacylglutathione hydrolases (Morrison et al., 2007), but no glyoxalase I gene was found. The genome of E. histolytica does not have a

  2021-10-25

  

  Previous studies have suggested that GPR40 protects from bone loss via inhibition of osteoclasts. Wittrant et al. used GPR40 knock-out mice and primary osteoclasts to investigate the role of GPR40 on bone remodelling. Their results in primary osteoclast cultures and the RAW264.7 cell line showed tha

  2021-10-25

  

  In mammals, the primary cilium is considered a hub for signal transduction. The cilium has previous been associated with transduction of several pathways including Wnt (Corbit et al., 2008, McDermott et al., 2010, Tran et al., 2014), PDGF (Clement et al., 2013, Schneider et al., 2010, Schneider et a

  A significant contribution to the discovery of novel Hh inhibitors is given by natural compounds [11,17,22,31,32]. The first Hh inhibitor ever discovered has been Cyclopamine, a steroidal alkaloid isolated from plants of the Veratrum species [13,33]. Subsequently, many natural compounds belonging to

  Besides its established insulinotropic actions, GIP has been shown to possess other direct beneficial effects on the beta cell, including stimulation of growth, differentiation, proliferation and survival.21, 22, 23 It has also been shown to stimulate proinsulin gene transcription and translation.

  Inhibitors against the proteasome, a component of the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway that degrades cellular proteins, provide a new strategy for targeting the 26S proteasome [25]. Proteasome inhibitors can exhibit potent anti-cancer effects against different tumor Ro3306 and were shown to induce apop

  2021-10-25

  

  The γ-secretase complex comprises four core subunits: presenilin (PS), nicastrin (NCT), anterior pharynx-defective 1 (Aph1), and presenilin enhancer 2 (Pen2) [7], [8]. PS is the catalytic subunit of γ-secretase, and many PS mutations associated with familial AD result in a high Aβ42/Aβ40 ratio [5].

  The conversion of lactose to GOS by β-gal involves the same transglycosylation mechanism used by most glycoside hydrolases (GHs). This mechanism (Fig. 1) involves an enzyme-bound intermediate and consists of two processes: glycosylation and deglycosylation (Adlercreutz, 2017). The glycosylation proc

  Microglia after activation can show prominently pro-inflammatory but also anti-inflammatory characteristics [46]. Although the ageing process is not a pathological process, many of the age-associated changes resemble those observed under pathological conditions. An increase number of pro-inflammator
