  2023-04-06

  

  AdipoRon is an orally active, synthetic small molecule that activates adiponectin receptor (AdipoR). It mimics the antidiabetic effects of adiponectin, exhibiting its effect through the activation of AMPK and PPARα pathways via AdipoR1 and AdipoR2, respectively (Fig. 2) [62]. AdipoR activation has r

  Lower LDL-C mediated by variants in the ACL gene is causally associated with the risk of cardiovascular events. Because, genetic variants that mimic the effect of an ACL inhibitor have the same effect on the risk of cardiovascular events per unit change in LDL-C as variants that mimic the effect of

  Aromatase: the key enzyme for estrogen formation in adipose tissue Estrogens are synthesized from androgens by aromatase, a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily, which is the rate-limiting enzyme in estrogen biosynthesis (Santen et al, 2009, Simpson et al, 1994). At the cellular level, aroma

  Knowledge about adipose tissue has evolved considerably over the last two decades. Always been described as an inert tissue having the function of stocking lipids, adipose tissue is now recognized as a real organ with both metabolic and endocrine functions secreting various factors into the blood to

  Despite the absence of disulfide bonds in its linear structure, KT43C displays antifungal and antibacterial activity. Disulfide bonds are determinants of defensins' integrity and have been reported to increase the antimicrobial activity (Jenssen et al., 2006). However, some linear derivatives of AMP

  Angiogenesis refers to the formation of new blood vessels from pre-existing vasculature [1]. Physiological angiogenesis is necessary for key processes such as wound healing, tissue regeneration and repair. In pathological conditions, including cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, cancer, and other pat

  NLX-112 (a.k.a. F13640 or befiradol), exhibits nanomolar affinity at 5-HT1A receptors, and, in 2×Taq PCR Master Mix(with dye) to the 5-HT1A receptor agonists listed above, it presents exceptional selectivity and high efficacy at these receptors (Colpaert et al., 2002, Newman-Tancredi et al., 2017).

  Given the powerful and ubiquitous nature of adenosine action within the CNS, basal levels of extracellular adenosine are carefully regulated and are estimated to be in the region of 30–300 nM (Fredholm et al., 2001). The two main pathways for the control of extracellular adenosine involve phosphoryl

  Introduction Dementia is a common disease in the elderly, and a significant source of disability, healthcare spending, and long-term care admissions. There is evidence to suggest that testosterone plays a role in cognitive functioning, and lower serum levels correlate with higher amyloid deposits (

  ACL: A Metabolic Checkpoint for Sensing Excess Nutrients? During normal transitions between fasting and feeding, cells maintain energy homeostasis by integrating energy and nutrient status signals at key metabolic nodes, coordinating multiple processes. For example, the AMP-activated protein kina

  2023-03-27

  

  In vascular endothelial cells, L-arginine produces nitric oxide (NO) under the action of nitric oxide synthase (NOS), and nitric oxide can activate guanylate cyclase to produce a large amount of cGMP, thereby relaxing vascular smooth muscle and expanding blood vessels. Numerous studies have confirme

  Here the so-called alkali assay [18] is proposed as a method to be applied directly on the purified recombinant enzyme sharing the same structural and functional features of the wild-type enzyme [19], [20], [21] using its physiological substrate androstenedione. The assay that was already successful
