  2022-01-30

  

  Curcumin is a major yellow pigment in turmeric ground rhizome of Curcuma longa Linn, which is used widely as a spice and coloring agent in several foods such as curry, mustard and potato chips as well as cosmetics and drugs (Okada et al., 2001, Joe et al., 2004). Curcumin represents a class of anti-

  2022-01-30

  

  Etoposide (VP-16), a semisynthetic podophyllotoxin derivative agent, is widely used as a chemotherapic treatment for many cancers (Hande, 1998). VP-16 has been known that its activity is mediated by the interaction with topoisomerase II (an ATP-dependent nuclear enzyme) which regulates DNA topology

  Lactate-induced GPR81 activation was confirmed with a fluorimetric imaging plate reader (FLIPR) assay, in which lactate induced a [Ca2+] flux in CHO cells stably expressing Gqi5 and HA-GPR81 but not vector control (Fig. 1C). The EC50 of lactate in the FLIPR assay was 4.3±0.73mM, a value well within

  Introduction Cell surface receptors are central to the interaction of cells with their surroundings and play an important role in determining functional responses. These receptors are integral membrane proteins responsible for the binding of extracellular signaling molecules and transduction into

  Mongolian gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus), a social rodent species, are widely distributed in the typical steppe, desert steppe and desert habitats of northern China, Mongolia, and Trans-Baikal region of Russia. In wild, the recorded maximum lifespan (apparent longevity) was 29.5 months for female M

  Nonetheless, several questions remain to be answered about FAAH inhibition to address cannabis use disorder. The trial was of short duration (4 weeks), whereas most clinical trials in this field have been for 8–12 weeks., , , Although motivational deficits are commonly present in cannabis users and

  2022-01-29

  

  In addition to acting as the gatekeeper for the metabolic and antioxidant roles of glucose, HKs have also been found to regulate mPTP opening directly. First described in the cancer field, the high-affinity HK isoforms HK1 and HK2 are strongly anti-apoptotic when bound to the outer mitochondrial mem

  The relaxant response to carperitide was influenced neither by the removal of the endothelium nor by treatment with the nitric oxide synthase inhibitor or nitric oxide scavenger. This result was to be expected as previous studies showing that the vasodilator action of atrial natriuretic peptide is e

  Although historically, the two ROCK isoforms have been viewed as redundant, recent observations show that the two isoforms of ROCK might have different functions (Newell-Litwa et al., 2015). Knockdown of ROCK1 was found to result in cell rounding and a decrease in cell size while cells with knockdow

  With an ever-increasing incidence rate of type 2 diabetes and obesity, it is imperative to develop new therapeutic regimes that may provide a benefit both in terms of efficacy and tolerability. The existing portfolio of drugs for the treatment of metabolic disorders, primarily type 2 diabetes and ob

  The mD1.2 plasmid containing CD4 domain 1 gene under the control of a promoter was obtained as a gift from Dr. Dimiter S. Dimitrov. The mD1.2 plasmid was digested using restriction endonuclease I (New England BioLabs, USA) to release the mD1.2 gene. The gene encoding the mD1.2 protein was elongated
