  The schematic diagram of the antagonistic interactions of Zn2+ and neurosteroids (NSs) at GABA-A receptors is summarized in Fig. 7. Neurosteroids exhibit powerful seizure protective effects against experimental seizures probably through the potentiation of synaptic and extrasynaptic GABA-A receptor-

  2022-06-09

  

  To understand the impact of alterations in nonreceptor tyrosine kinase zinc homeostasis, the role of Zn2+ as a neurotransmitter has to be appreciated. Certain regions of the brain including the neocortex and hippocampus harbour so-called “zincergic” (or “gluzinergic”) neurons, where Zn2+ is co-rele

  Methods Results Discussion SV exocytosis from excitatory boutons is more sensitive to inhibition by isoflurane than exocytosis from inhibitory boutons,4, 31 but the mechanism(s) of this synaptic selectivity is unknown. Although P/Q-type VGCCs contributed quantitatively more to SV exocytosis t

  Computational approaches such as docking and classical molecular dynamics (MD) are now commonly used to study the structure and dynamics of proteins as well as associated protein-ligand interactions [12]. A fundamental requirement of MD in order to accurately determine the behavior of a protein over

  Hedgehog pathway in embryonic development It is now well established that the Hedgehog pathway solves a role as one of the essential signaling mechanisms for the modulation of cellular growth and differentiation during embryogenesis. Operating through time- and position-dependent mechanisms, this

  Ras pathways are involved in the regulation of virulence in Cryptococcus neoformans [7] and Candida albicans [8,9]. To verify the importance of Ras in the survival response of the fungus in the host, a pathogenicity test of P. brasiliensis was performed before and after treatment with the Ras inhibi

  While the specific set of challenges associated with deorphanization and transforming each poorly characterized GPCR into a useful drug target will be unique, much can be learned by considering how these issues have been addressed for other receptors. One group of poorly characterized GPCRs that hav

  Lysophosphatidylinositol (LPI) LPI is a subspecies of lysophospholipid consisting of inositol as its head group, one glycerol molecule and one acyl chain (Piñeiro and Falasca, 2012). The biosynthesis of this lipid starts from Phosphatidylinositol (PI) and is catalysed by the enzymes phospholipase

  IC2 is a rat mAb specifically binding to insulin granula [127,128]. Although this mAb was discovered 30 years ago, it has only recently been used for β-cell imaging in vivo. Moore et al. used this mAb for β-cell imaging in 2001 [129]. After DTPA conjugation, IC2 was labeled with 111In. Both in vitro

  For some agonists, these stable GPR119 responses were resistant to washing. Thus, sustained activation could continue, for at least a number of hours, even after removal of free agonist. These data are consistent with reports for other GPCR systems that do not desensitize (Calebiro et al., 2009, Fer

  CF patients can suffer from a multitude of hepatobiliary problems including gall stones, hepatitis, steatosis and cirrhosis. Hepatobiliary problems are common in pediatric CF patients with reported prevalence rates up to 25% [12,13]. Cystic fibrosis related liver disease (CFLD) was thought to develo

  H109, together with T112, also forms a binding site for H+ (Chen et al., 2004; Harvey et al., 1999). H+-binding at this site also inhibits GlyR-mediated currents. Notably, the vicinity of neurons experiences changes in pH, to a mild extent in physiological conditions such as when neurons fire (Chesl

  Human Glucocorticoid Receptor (hGR) was first cloned in 1985 (Hollenburg et al., 1985). It is a modular protein comprised of an N-terminal trans-activating domain (NTD), a C-terminal ligand-binding domain (LBD) and a central DNA- binding domain (DBD). The DBD is highly conserved and has two zinc fin
