  Background In resource-limited countries, many HIV patients currently do not have reliable access to essential diagnostic laboratory tests, including CD4, clinical chemistry, hematology, viral load, and diagnosis of common co-infections. CD4 T cell count monitoring remains an important surrogate

• Dendritic damage and loss of synaptic connections

  2022-04-18

  

  Dendritic damage and loss of synaptic connections correlate with cognitive decline in HAND patients. Synapse loss induced by HIV proteins occurs early and via a different signaling pathway from that leading to neuronal death (Kim et al., 2008), suggesting that synapse loss might be a mechanism to re

  Based on the role of NMDA receptors in initiation and propagation of epileptic seizures and on potentiation of NMDA function by glycine, it has been hypothesized that glycine will have proconvulsant activity (Foster and Kemp, 1989). Indeed, there is some evidence that human epileptogenic foci, remov

  2022-04-18

  

  Lamina II (SG) spinal cord neurons play an important role in regulating nociceptive input from the periphery [20,21]. Moreover, lamina II neurons are concentrated with glycinergic or GABAergic inhibitory interneurons. Therefore, it is possible that β-alanine might modulate nociceptive transmission i

  2022-04-18

  

  Hippo signaling is an emerging tumor suppressor pathway that plays key roles in normal physiology and tumorigenesis through the regulation of cellular proliferation and survival [4]. In humans, YAP is over-expressed as a result of genomic amplification of the 11q22 locus in a wide spectrum of human

  The concept of the axo-myelin ‘synapse’ Axons can release glutamate in a Ca+-dependent and independent manner (reviewed in [13,69]). Glutamate released from axons activates GluRs located in myelin, a feature that gave rise to the idea of the axo-myelin ‘synapse’ by analogy with classical synaptic

  Glucocorticosteroid receptor structure and function The gene encoding for the human GR is composed of 9 exons (Oakley and Cidlowski, 2011) and the translated protein is described as having 4 functional regions. The protein contains a highly conserved central DNA-binding domain (DBD) or C-domain,

  Although GLP-1 has greater insulin-releasing effects at pharmacological concentrations [10], it is apparent that the higher circulating concentrations of GIP combined with more pronounced increase in secretion following feeding make GIP the major physiological incretin [7], [11]. The peptide exerts

  Bile acids (BAs) are detergent-like amphipathic molecules synthesized from cholesterol in the liver, stored in the gallbladder, and released into the intestine after food intake in order to facilitate the CC-10004 of dietary lipids and liposoluble vitamins. BAs travel along the intestine and once in

  OCA has recently been approved for the treatment of patients with PBC and is under study for diseases such as NASH, PSC and biliary atresia [30], [49]. Up to now, the beneficial effects of OCA have been related to its anti-cholestatic, anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic properties. We have here rep

  Discussion and concluding remarks FPR1 is considered to be a promising drug target for treating inflammatory and immunological diseases. Thus, natural compounds that could block and/or regulate FPR1 activity may be an important source of novel therapeutics for modulating inflammatory processes. H

  Hardy et al. had demonstrated the role of GPR40 in mediating the proliferative effect of the FFA oleate's in breast cancer cells, and found that such effect can be reversed by silencing of GPR40 [14]. Similarly we have observed that inhibition of GPR40 function by its antagonist GW1100 inhibited cel

  ATN-161 (Ac-PHSCN-NH2) is a small peptide antagonist of integrin α5β1, a recently developed anticancer drug that interacts with the N-terminus of the β1 region of integrin α5β1 to lock integrin α5β1 in its non-activated conformation (Wang et al., 2016). The drug has been tested in Phase 2 clinical t

  Histamine H1 and H2 receptors are considered as low affinity receptors (pKi of 4.2 and 4.3 respectively), whereas histamine H3 and H4 receptors as a high affinity receptors (pKi of 8 and 8.2 respectively) (Schreeb et al., 2013). Therefore it might well be that other histamine receptors might be invo
