  Disclosure Acknowledgement Introduction CYP17A1 is a multifunctional enzyme with both 17α-hydroxylase and 17,20-lyase activities and is essential for the biosynthesis of steroidal ppy mg in male testes and adrenal glands. The 17α-hydroxylase activity of CYP17A1 is involved in the conversion

  2024-08-07

  

  In liver, the essential organ of lipoprotein synthesis, ACL plays a fundamental role in lipogenesis and steroidogenesis by supplying cytosolic Nicotinic Acid to both pathways. By using a tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediate (citrate) to produce acetyl CoA, ACL can be seen as an important bridge be

  2024-08-07

  

  The tumor-suppressor function of 15-LOX-2 in normal prostate epithelial cells may be explained by the induction of replicative senescence [14,15]. Thus, 15-LOX-2 is overexpressed in age-dependent prostatic hyperplasia, but cell senescence may hinder progression to malignant transformation. Notwithst

  Asthma The chronic airway inflammatory disease pd184352 is associated with enhanced levels of exhaled NO generated by iNOS in the airway epithelium [12]. In asthmatic patients local and systemic changes in iNOS, peroxynitrite, arginase, ADMA and arginine levels have been observed and are associa

  Autophagy and apoptosis have a very complex relationship, and the precise mechanism remains to be determined. At present, a large amount of research has confirmed that autophagy can protect the cell from apoptosis in special conditions such as nutrient deficiency or growth factors deprivation; the e

  2024-08-06

  

  Although the role of apelin and APJ receptor in cardiovascular functions has been well-elucidated, little is known for the effect of the central apelinergic system on gastrointestinal (GI) functions. In mice, it has been found previously that central exogenous apelin-13 decreased gastric emptying (G

  2024-08-06

  

  The functional similarity between GPR25 and APLNR, ie both can be activated by Apelin and Apela and are coupled to Gi-cAMP signaling pathway (Fig. 2, Fig. 3, Fig. 4), strongly suggests that GPR25 signaling may play important physiological and pathological roles in vertebrates more or less similar to

  2024-08-06

  

  MADS box proteins are combinatorial transcription factors in that they often derive their regulatory specificity from other DNA binding or accessory factors. In many cases, the cofactor with which MADS box proteins interact specifies which genes are regulated, when they are regulated and if these ge

  With wide-spread use of corticosteroids to combat inflammation and allergies, even children are susceptible to corticosteroid-induced muscle wasting. Although non-steroidal SGRMs that spare muscle and bone, but have significant anti-inflammatory effects, have been preclinically developed and tested,

  Serine/glycine and one-carbon metabolism Altered serine metabolism in tumors was noted nearly half a century ago, and elevated flux through the de novo serine synthesis pathway (SSP) is a common phenomenon in cancer gli1 [43]. The SSP branches from glycolysis at the point of 3-phosphoglycerate an

  The subdivision of 5-HT receptors started in the 1950s by Gaddum and colleagues, when they realised that in the guinea pig ileum, the effects of 5-HT could be blocked in part by morphine (M), and in part by dibenzyline (D). Gaddum and Picarelli proposed two receptor classes, 5-HT M and 5-HT D (1957)

  For these reasons, the role played by autophagy in environmental neurotoxicity is not always easily determinable. Indeed, although the neuroprotective role of autophagy has been shown by several studies, sometimes induction of autophagy was associate with deleterious effects (Glick et al., 2010, Sri
