  2024-04-18

  

  Introduction Androgens have been shown to regulate several neural functions ranging from reproduction to mood and cognitive abilities. This property starts as early as the perinatal period, which is characterized by prenatal and postnatal surges of gonadal testosterone, and continues through pube

  2024-04-18

  

  A straightforward synthetic pathway was adopted to synthesize the target compounds as outlined in . The starting chloromethylquinazolinones (–) were synthesized from anthranilic suramin in two steps following reported procedures., , , The first step involves chloroacetylation of anthranilic acid usi

• Aldose reductase AR is an NADPH

  2024-04-18

  

  Aldose reductase (AR), is an NADPH-dependent aldo-keto reductase very well studied as a catalyst of glucose conversion to sorbitol in the polyol pathway [11], [12]. In the diabetic lens characterized by chronically high levels of glucose, AR is responsible for production of high levels of sorbitol a

  2024-04-18

  

  The results of cell culture models were further supported by in vivo studies in mice treated with PXR and/or AhR agonists, PCN and β-NF. In these mice, AhR-regulated cyp1a1, and cyp1a2 were suppressed by PXR activation as determined by real time Q-PCR (Fig. 3). The level of PXR mRNA was not changed

  2024-04-18

  

  Heart failure is a chronic syndrome in which the heart is unable of pumping an adequate supply of blood to meet the metabolic requirements of the body or generating the required elevated ventricular filling pressures to maintain output [34]. Despite considerable advances in the treatment of heart fa

  2024-04-18

  

  Medium spiny neurons (MSNs) in the striatum start from a deeply hyperpolarized resting membrane potential, slowly depolarize and show a delayed start of firing during a current injection (Kawaguchi, 1993, Nisenbaum and Wilson, 1995, Planert et al., 2013). The firing pattern during the current inject

• AMPK is an essential player in adiponectin signaling pathway

  2024-04-18

  

  AMPK is an essential player in adiponectin signaling pathway that regulates energy metabolism. The fact that suppression of AMPK activity by compound C largely diminished candesartan-mediated inhibition of NFκB via blocking AT1 also suggests that the AT1-mediated effect is at least partly resulted f

  2024-04-18

  

  In fact, serotonin is a major modulator of dopaminergic (DA) neuronal activity through the 5-HT2C receptor. Studies have shown that the selective 5-HT2C receptor agonist Ro60-0175 blocks the burst-firing of mesolimbic DA neurons, which project from the ventral tegmental area (VTA) to the nucleus acc

  2024-04-18

  

  Some alterations in the integrity of cell membranes caused by toxic agents can be determined by measuring certain enzymes released by damaged cells [8]. The cholinesterases, for example, catalyze the hydrolysis of cmv (ACh) in choline and acetic acid. Theses enzymes are divided into two types: the a

  In the last decade, the zebrafish has emerged as a valuable vertebrate model to systematically dissect the genetic underpinnings of both vertebrate heart development and function [8,9], as well as distinct cardiac diseases such as congenital heart disease [10], cardiomyopathies [11,12] and cardiac a

  In a human intervention study, blood GSH levels were evaluated over 6 wk in 18 male participants subjected to strenuous aerobic training and a dietary supplement of 1 g of WPI/kg of body mass per day. Blood GSH levels were significantly lower in those subjects who performed exercise that those who d

  2024-04-17

  

  Since 2005, at least 14 prospective cohort studies have been conducted to clarify inconsistencies in the field, ten of which suggested a direct correlation between antibiotic use and atopy or wheezing later in life [51–60], three found no association [61–63], and one found positive association only

  The association of male gender with increased atherosclerosis has stimulated interest in the role of androgen signalling in this condition. Androgens act (Fig. 2) by direct activation of androgen receptor (AR), a nuclear receptor that acts as a ligand-regulated transcription factor (Gao et al., 2005
