  Extending time action is another strategy to increase in vivo efficacy. Twice daily administration of the unacylated analogs herein caused greater body weight loss in DIO mice than the equivalent dose administered as a single daily injection, suggesting that protracted time action should yield more

• Arena Pharmaceutical introduced a biaryl sulfone derivative

  2021-10-11

  

  Arena Pharmaceutical introduced a biaryl sulfone derivative with antagonistic activity at H3Rs known as APD-916, ((R)-1-(2-(4'-(3-methoxypropylsulfonyl)biphenyl-4-yl)ethyl)-2-methylpyrrolidine), which was rationally designed from corresponding sulfonamides in order to yield compounds with short dura

• Histamine functions as a key neurotransmitter

  2021-10-11

  

  Histamine functions as a key neurotransmitter in multiple circuits to control various behaviors. In Drosophila photoreceptor, histamine is produced de novo by histidine decarboxylase (Burg et al., 1993); meanwhile, maintaining normal histamine content also depends on the histamine recycling pathway

  2021-10-11

  

  We recently reported that the human-derived PancCa cell line PANC-1 and the human-derived hepatocellular HepG2 cell line express GPR55 mRNA and protein [21]. In PANC-1 and HepG2 cells, knockdown of GPR55 with specific siRNAs abrogates cellular uptake of Tocrifluor 1117, a selective GPR55 ligand [21]

  2021-10-11

  

  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

  The neuronal glycine receptor/3α-HSOR/allopregnanolone pathway may also be extended to the central nervous effects of gelsemine and koumine in brain. 3α-HSOR is expressed in certain brain regions in rats and humans, such as the limbic system including hypothalamus, hippocampus and amygdala, in addit

  Materials and methods Results Discussion Ghrelin is reported to regulate a number of processes related to cancer progression including tumor cell proliferation, apoptosis and metastasis [3,7,[15], [16], [17], [18], [19], [20], [21], [22]]. In the present study, we examined the potential eff

  2021-10-11

  

  The mechanism by which Piezo1 acts in the regulation of RBC volume is not firmly established. Its curved structure implies that it is activated by an increase in membrane tension (11), a mechanism indicated by electrophysiological measurements (16). However, the RBC membrane mechanics at its physiol

  2021-10-11

  

  GSIs were shown to effectively decrease Aβ levels at doses close to or higher than their IC50 values in cell culture models. Surprisingly, they also slightly increase Aβ levels at low doses, (significantly below the IC50) also known as “Aβ rise”, due to various mechanisms including inhibition of cel

  In conclusion, our results show that multiple receptor populations can be expressed when α4, β3 and δ mRNAs are injected into Xenopus oocytes and include β3 homomeric; α4β3; and β3δ receptors. The previously unidentified β3δ can be differentiated pharmacologically from either β3, α4β3 and α4β3δ rece

  The precise mechanism by which erastin inhibits SLC7A11-mediated cystine import it still unknown. The initially proposed mechanism, by which erastin binds a related transport protein, SLC7A5, and inhibits SLC7A11 in trans [25], was revised soon after, and it was suggested that erastin inhibits SLC7A

  According to the implication of the endocannabinoid system in IBD, we decided in our laboratory to develop selective CB agonists and FAAH inhibitors to treat these diseases. Recently, we described 3-carboxamido-5-aryl-isoxazoles as selective CB agonists. This series of isoxazoles possesses a 2-subst

  Challenges and open questions Deepening our understanding of PKC’s role in GSIS will require harnessing recently developed techniques and developing new tools. Here we describe three challenges remaining in the field and offer suggestions on experimental approaches to address them. PKC plays an
