  hGPR55 was mapped to human chromosome 2q37, and in the human CNS it is predominantly localized to the caudate, putamen, and striatum (Sawzdargo et al., 1999). In rats, in situ hybridization indicated expression in hippocampus, thalamus and regions of the midbrain (Sawzdargo et al., 1999). Ryberg et

  2022-04-16

  

  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

  With taurine, or other molecules that might be transported by Eaat2, an important area of research will be how such a chemical regulates sleep. Indeed, taurine has been described to act on the nervous system in disparate ways — it can act as an inhibitory neurotransmitter, but also has a well-charac

  2022-04-15

  

  Both anxiety-like behavior and sucrose preference/intake were reduced in GPR40/FFAR1 KO male mice, while social behavior was normal in KO mice. These findings indicate that brain GPR40/FFAR1 is involved in the modulation of anxiety- and depression-like behavior in rodents. Previous studies have demo

  2022-04-15

  

  GHSR-1A's have high levels of constitutive activity and recent investigations show that constitutively active GHSR-1As in the absence of ligand (ghrelin) binding can have effects on feeding and energy balance (Mear et al., 2013, Petersen et al., 2009). Furthermore, GHSR-1As are capable of dimerizing

  Introduction Conversion of visual input into electrical information and routing this information to the brain is the main function of the eye (Levin et al., 2011). These processes require a microenvironment that offers adequate supply with oxygen and nutrients and also removal of all unwanted and

  We have previously designed an azobenzene-based molecule, Razo, which could switch the conformations of G-quadruplex structures by photoregulation. 12, 13, 14, 15 However, it lacks selectivity to different G-quadruplexes. Therefore, we want to find a way to modify this molecule so that it could be u

  In the light of the above-mentioned considerations, it is interesting to note that the FPR-related research with regards to bias agonism did not prosper during considerably during the last decade (possible exceptions are [[8], [9], [10], [11]]. However, with new insights in receptor chemistry and fu

  Several transgenic and knockout/congenic mouse models have been generated in order to assess the role of FFAR1 for proper insulin secretion and maintenance of glucose homeostasis. The results obtained with three different receptor knockout mouse models were not consistent. The protection against hig

  Introduction For decades, regulated apoptosis and unregulated, accidental necrosis have been considered as the two sole cell death routes in multicellular organisms. With the beginning of the 21st century a paradigm shift has been witnessed by researchers in the field with the recognition that ma

  Following these discoveries, the term ferroptosis was coined in 2012 [25], to describe this iron-dependent, non-apoptotic form cell death induced by erastin and RSL3. This discovery was accompanied by the development of the first small molecule ferroptosis inhibitor, termed ferrostatin-1, and the de

  However, at variance with the well-studied R form of FBP1 which is flat, the R state of FBP2 is diametrically different, with a perpendicular orientation of the upper and lower dimers (Barciszewski et al., 2016). The cruciform-like R state of FBP2 is stabilized by a unique hydrophobic motif called ‘

  In addition to Rabs, several proteins have been shown to interact with Rabphilin3a, for instance the GluN2A subunit of the NMDA receptor, PSD-95 ([56,57] and references therein), Rabaptin-5, α-actinin [16] and SNAP-25 [21,23,41,61]. Only the latter has been reported to participate in the AR. Explori

  Cellular transportation of nanoparticles and nanocomplexes Endocytosis and exocytosis are critically important phenomena in cellular metabolism, which involve the complex vesicular system. They deal with major cellular transportation activities including membrane homeostasis by transporting prote
