  Materials and methods Results Analysis of the post-mortem human prefrontal cortex by western blotting indicated that GLAST expression was increased 1.6-fold in the extracts of alcoholic brains relative to controls (Fig. 1A and B). To resolve the distinct sub-pools of GLAST within our samples w

  In agreement with the results obtained from GluR-A−/− mice, mice in which the NR1 subunit of the NMDA receptor has been selectively deleted from the CA3 subfield of the hippocampus displayed normal acquisition of the standard reference memory version of the watermaze task (Nakazawa et al., 2002), bu

In this study, GLUT8 protein mainly localized in the spermatocytes, elongated and round spermatids in the adu

  Therapeutic approaches exploiting Cx43 function Due to their potential role in cancer metastasis, attempts have been made to alter connexin function to inhibit cancer growth. Therapeutic approaches include Cx43 peptide mimetics, Cx43 inhibitors, chemical agents capable of enhancing Cx43 function,

  Involvement of gap junctions and Panx1 in spinal cord processing of pain information Several studies indicated that GJs in the CNS contribute to pain. A common finding in such studies is that intrathecal administration of GJ blocker attenuates pain behavior. For example, intrathecal CBX attenuate

  Biologically active non-peptide galanin receptor ligands The first successful attempt in overcoming these weaknesses was undertaken by Saar et al. (2002). Screening of galanin sequence established that Trp-2, Asn-5, Tyr-9 were pharmacophores, responsible for biochemical action of the peptide. Bas

  Introduction The mammalian skin forms the largest organ of the body and includes a network of cutaneous nerves, cells of the immune system, and mediators of the neuro-endocrine axis (Theoharides et al., 2016). Analogous to the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, neuropeptides and their receptors

  Albumin is the major carrier of free fatty acids (FFAs) in plasma [59], and harbours seven binding sites that are common to FFAs with a range of chain-lengths (C10-C18) across its three domains (Fig. 1a) [60,61]. In vitro, saturated, mono- and poly-unsaturated FFAs, with chain lengths ranging from C

  Pharmacological G9a inhibition resulted in significant reduction of viable BTC cells in a concentration- and cell line–dependent manner. Interestingly, we found a significant correlation between BIX01294-IC50 and UNC0642-IC50 values in our BTC cell model—both inhibitors competitively inhibit H3K9 su

  Before discovery of their histone demethylase function, the JARID1 isoforms were identified across diverse fields including stem cell biology and congenital disease, as detailed in Box 2. Their observed roles in cancer progression and therapy resistance have led to ongoing pursuit of inhibitors tail

  A nitric oxide donor, glyceryl-trinitrite, and the substrate for nitric oxide, l-arginine, have been used to treat preterm labor. However, these studies are preliminary. The beneficial effect of nitric oxide donors needs to be confirmed by more controlled studies. The probable pitfall of using nitri

  In the 1H NMR spectrum two pairs of doublet resonances arising from the protons in the aromatic moiety of the two diastereoisomers can be readily observed around 7.5–7.6 ppm. These resonances can be used to detect and quantify the two diastereoisomers. From the results presented in Fig. 1A it can b

  Two distinct mechanisms have been described for niacin’s macrophage-based actions [21,22]. First, niacin blocks recruitment of macrophages to atherosclerotic lesions. Second, niacin upregulates macrophage ABCA1 and ABCG1, transporters involved in reverse cholesterol transport. Upregulation of choles
