  Aggregated Aβ species have been studied by an array of biophysical techniques, including atomic force microscopy (AFM) [55], transmission electron microscopy (TEM) [56], [57], X-ray diffraction [58], Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) [59], [60], circular dichroism (CD) [61], and nuclear magnetic res

  However, a high triglyceride level was associated with dementia in a study with subjects aged ≥65 years (Raffaitin et al., 2009). In another study, the serum triglyceride levels of three different transgenic mouse strains mimicking AD were also evaluated within the progression of the pathology. In o

  Potential and established risk factor for Alzheimer’s Disease The only way to overcome the above mentioned limitations is the identification of risk factors, which, taken together, can reliable predict the development of AD. Age and ApoE4 are established non-modifiable risk factors for AD. The ri

  2024-06-18

  

  Overexpression of AR can lead to sorbitol accumulation, leading to diabetic complications (Ransohoff and Cardona, 2010). Therefore, AR is an important enzyme in the growth and development of organisms. With the aim of inhibiting the activity of AR in diabetic patients, screening for inhibitors and i

  In a recent series of studies from our laboratory, to characterize the contractile systems within the rat NLG919 wall, three conditions were identified that led to detrusor activity: spontaneous micro-contractions, electrical field stimulated (EFS) contractions and muscarinic agonist induced contra

  2024-06-17

  

  Adenosine receptors and the adaptive immunity T lymphocytes are responsible for the cell-mediated immune response [95]. These cells can be stimulated by the presentation of antigenic moieties by APCs, such as dendritic cells or macrophages [96]. The presentation of antigenic molecules on the APC

  2024-06-17

  

  Pioneering studies on the immunomodulatory role of adenosine date back to the early ‘70 s of last century (Fig. 1), when the critical role of this nucleoside in shaping the development and the activity of several immune cell populations was first established [[18], [19], [20], [21], [22]]. This then

  2024-06-17

  

  Previous studies suggest that TGF-β contributes to the pathogenesis of diabetic renal injury [47]. TGF-β stimulates matrix production and prevents matrix degradation, which leads to increase collagen deposition and glomerulosclerosis [48]. In the current study ABT702 significantly reduced renal coll

  Our study, like that of Zill et al. (2012) included European Caucasians, although their population was much smaller (n=162) and more heterogeneous (19–72years). Further, potential confounding or effect modification by other health, lifestyle or genetic factors was not considered. These differences m

  Conclusion To conclude, it would be fair to say that the research efforts on FLAP inhibitors for intervening with LT biosynthesis have reached to a considerably advanced state during the last decade as a result of growing interest from both pharmaceutical industry and academia [4], [37], [38]. Du

  We also showed that steatosis induced an additional increase of ASK1 activation that was associated to the exacerbation of hepatocyte and liver damage and was unrelated to ER stress. Indeed, several settings, also different to ER stress, can induce ASK1 activation and many of them involve oxidative

  We further evaluated the possibility whether letrozole mediates its effect through diverting the pathway towards 5α-DHT and further to 3α-Diol. For this purpose, we measured the concentrations of 5α-DHT and 3α-Diol in mice hippocampus and found that letrozole elevated both 5α-DHT and 3α-Diol levels

  2024-06-17

  

  The androgen receptor gene (AR) is located on the X-chromosome and consists of eight exons in humans (Brown et al., 1989; Kuiper et al., 1989). The similar gene structure in mice, monotremes and marsupials indicates AR is highly conserved in mammals (Choong et al., 1998; Faber et al., 1991; He et al

  Modulating the ability of tumor prostanoid receptors to detoxify ROS is a key mechanism by which cysteine metabolism affects tumor cell survival. One study observed hypermethylation of cysteine dioxygenase (CDO1) in 60% of tested breast cancer samples, leading to increased ROS detoxification and tu
