• The G protein coupled receptor

  2022-08-02

  

  The G protein-coupled receptor, GPR40 (also called FFAR1) responds to medium and long chain unsaturated fatty acids, resulting in increase of insulin secretion during elevated glucose levels. The glucose dependency of insulin secretion makes this receptor a very good target for developing therapies

  2022-08-02

  

  The typical pharmacophore for GPR40 agonists contains four parts: head (acid moiety), central (phenyl ring), linker and tail (aromatic carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring) [20]. On the other hand, the chemical features that are required for the PPARγ agonists include hydrogen bond donors and acceptors

  Introduction Atrial fibrillation is the most common cardiac arrhythmia (Benjamin et al., 1998). Pulmonary vein (PV) sleeves contain a mixture of working myocardium and potential arrhythmogenic pacemaker PHA-739358 receptor behaving as an ectopic trigger of atrial fibrillation (Haissaguerre et al

  2022-07-30

  

  The therapeutic potential of acetate has been advocated by research on neurodegenerative disorders such as Canavan's disease (Arun et al., 2010, Mathew et al., 2005), where oral acetate improved motor function in a genetic model of the disorder, and in studies of behavioural phenotypes associated wi

  2022-07-30

  

  It is difficult, however, to assure that observed alterations of pro-oxidant/antioxidant levels within the studied organisms are related directly to heavy metal pollution, rather than to other accompanying environmental stressors. Environmental factors like oxygen partial pressure, temperature, sali

  2022-07-30

  

  The lactic GW788388 receptor HCA1 is primarily expressed in white and brown adipocytes 11, 12, 17, 18 (Table 1). Only relatively low expression levels of HCA1 have been described in several other tissues 16, 19, and it is not clear whether this is due to the presence of adipocytes in these tissues

  LPCs have been previously described as potential anti-diabetic factors due to stimulation of secretory activity from the isolated rodent pancreas, L-type cells, ands insulin-producing cell lines, with LPC 18:1 as the main structure of interest (Soga et al., 2005, Sakamoto et al., 2006, Overton et al

  2022-07-29

  

  ATP is essential for maintaining the ionic balance of the lens (Michael and Bron, 2011). Without sufficient ATP there is an ionic imbalance due to Na+K+ATPase dysfunction. Previous studies have shown that rabbit lenses incubated ex vivo without glucose rapidly lost ATP in their lens epithelium and f

  Chitosan (CS), a deacetylated derivative of chitin, was chosen in this study due to its unique biological characteristics including biodegradability, biocompatibility, non-toxicity, and antimicrobial properties (Klossner, Queen, Coughlin, & Krause, 2008; Kong, Chen, Xing, & Park, 2010; Ravi Kumar, 2
