  2022-02-25

  

  Another important question is what ligand(s) bind to GPR84 in vivo? Previous studies have identified medium-chain FFAs of 9 to 14 carbons in length and two other organic molecules (6-n-octylaminouracil and 3,3′-diindolylmethane) as agonists of GPR84 in vitro (Wang et al., 2006, Suzuki et al., 2013).

  It is well known that 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) is a tumor promoting agent of skin carcinogenesis in rodents [12]. TPA stimulates a variety of cellular functions in cancer cells, including cell motile activity [13], [14]. In our recent study, when liver epithelial cells were treated

  2022-02-25

  

  Recently, a G-protein-coupled receptor, GPR109a, was identified as a molecular target for niacin. Following this breakthrough, our group initiated a drug discovery program focused on the development of a high affinity ‘flush-free’ niacin-like agonist. Previously, we reported on the identification of

  Animal models of NASH The human NAS system (see above) is largely reproducible in NAFLD mouse models [37] and, therefore, has been increasingly applied in the preclinical assessment of liver histological responses to test compounds. In general, the NAS system is well suited for this purpose, alth

  Xie et al. (2009b) reported that the combination of diagnostic ultrasound impulses and cyclic RGD-bearing MBs targeted for GP IIb/IIIa resulted in the successful recovery of epicardial and microvascular blood flow in swine models with acute thrombotic occlusion. It is well known that the stability o

  To further investigate the molecular mechanisms that underlie glycine's β-cell protective effects through its antioxidative activity in diabetes, we used a H2O2/high glucose-induced apoptosis cell model. Similar effects on ROS generation of high glucose and H2O2 support the in vivo results, suggesti

  2022-02-25

  

  Genetic disruption or pharmacologic inhibition of the hepatic glucagon pathway has invariably been shown to increase pancreatic α cell mass. This has been observed in glucagon receptor (GCGR) knockout (Gcgr−/−) mice (Gelling et al., 2003), glucagon knockout mice (Hayashi et al., 2009), prohormone co

  Some of the key aspects of the myofibroblasts’ biology, including their signaling sensitivity and residual regenerative potential, are shaped by their origin. In this respect, lineage studies on myofibroblast precursors are critical for increasing our understanding of the natural history of fibrosis

  2022-02-25

  

  The patterns of Fig. 1, Fig. 2 emerge at the multicellular level; their dynamics can only be understood by integrating different magnitudes and feedback loops in networks incorporating the coupling between biochemical and bioelectrical signals (see Fig. 6, Fig. 8). Interestingly, this might also be

  Some aspects of intercellular Ca2+ wave spread are similar to the phenomenon of spreading depression and associated with migraine headache [57]. These depolarization waves, followed by electrical inhibition, are evoked by transient hypoxia and other types of PF-431396 injury and spread slowly acros

  In stark contrast to this study, Zhang and colleagues demonstrated that FFA4, along with FFA1, play roles in suppressing cell proliferation and promoting apoptosis in CRC luciferin receptor treated with omega-3 PUFA [53]. In this study design, in vivo CRC was induced in mice upon treatment with the

  Lenvatinib is an orally available, multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor against VEGFR1–3, FGFR1–4, PDGFRα, RET, and KIT [11,12]. In a recent phase III trial for patients with previously untreated uHCC (REFLECT study), lenvatinib showed statistical non-inferiority of overall survival compared to

  Although our knowledge of how FAs affect GLP-1-producing L-cells is sparse and incomplete, increased intracellular ceramide [6], ER stress [12], and increased production of ROS [9] are indicated mediators of the lipotoxicity induced by SFA (16:0). However, the role for/interaction between these medi

  Macrophage populations are prominent in active IBD (Strober and James, 1986) as compared to healthy donors. Further, percentages of macrophages are increased in DSS-induced colitis (Grose et al., 2001, Ogawa et al., 2004). IBD is also linked to an influx of neutrophils and depletion of neutrophils b
