  2022-01-25

  

  In NAFLD models, the “first hit” is liver fat accumulation, which causes insulin resistance, whereas the interplay of inflammatory cytokines, which causes inflammation, acts as the representative “second hit” [9]. However, recently, the “multiple hit” hypothesis has taken into consideration that mul

  In various models, histamine has been shown to induce chemotaxis. This was first appreciated over 40 years’ ago in studies with eosinophils (Clark et al., 1977). At that time, only histamine H1 and histamine H2 receptors were recognized and studies with ligands to these receptors indicated that neit

  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

  Discussion The present study explored that the effect of the MTP gene −493G/T polymorphism on the risk of hepatic steatosis in Turkish patients with chronic HCV genotype 1 infection. Some researchers revealed that the MTP gene −493G/T polymorphism was associated with hepatic steatosis in CHC infe

  2022-01-25

  

  The beta-catenin/TCF complex is an important target in the Wnt/beta-catenin pathway. This complex has proven challenging to target. However, natural inhibitors of this complex have been identified. One group of inhibitors is called the inhibitors of Wnt response (IWR-1/2). IWR-1/2 targets Axin and s

  2022-01-25

  

  Furthermore, the role of GSK-3 in the pathogenesis of inflammation has been widely documented as it accompanies inflammatory conditions such as diabetes mellitus, mood disorders, Alzheimer’s disease, cancer (Jope et al., 2007), and has been associated with atherothrombotic CVD events. However, anoth

  Endogenous and synthetic ligands of GPR55 There are currently limited commercially available synthetic agonists and antagonists that are specific for GPR55. A large number of studies have investigated the pharmacology of GPR55 4, 23, 25, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, with contradictory findings reporte

  Differences among flavivirus vaccines and implications for CD4 T cell immunity There are currently three classes of flavivirus vaccines in use – live-attenuated virus (for immunoprophylaxis against YF and JE), whole inactivated virus vaccines (JE, TBE) and chimeric vaccines (JE, DEN). The chimeri

  Sepsis was defined as a systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) associated with severe infection in 1992 [9]. However, in the Third International Consensus Definitions for Sepsis and Septic Shock [10], it was redefined as life-threatening organ dysfunction provoked by a dysregulated host resp

  Finally, it is possible that the increase in the number of EAAT-3-labelled cells in the DG at PD 60, when compared with the control and experimental animals at PD 14, is associated with natural changes in the number of neurons present during the postnatal development of the hippocampus (41, 42) and,

  Analgesic activity was evaluated by measuring tail flick latencies to the immersion of rat’s tail in water, maintained at ∼51°C [18] after recovery from anesthesia. Typically, rats were immobilized inside a restrainer, leaving only the tail exposed, which was then immersed into the hot water bath, a
