  Similarly, both neofunctionalization and subfunctionalization likely occurred for the duplicated proglucagon genes. The change in function of GLP-1 would be a neofunctionalization, however in this case it acquired a redundant function – a function that largely overlaps with glucagon effects in the l

  Neither GIP nor GIPR SNPs were associated with occurrence of fractures in the OPRA cohort (Table 4). Discussion The basis for this study lies in the role of glucose-insulinotropic peptide (GIP) hormone in the regulation of insulin secretion as well as its anabolic effect on osteoblasts and inhib

  The active site of PS1 is located at the interior of its TM horseshoe-like fold (29) (Fig. 1). TM2 and TM6 serve as “doors” for substrate entry (30), as also observed in recent molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of the PS1 subunit (31). Recent coarse-grained (CG) and atomic simulations also showed

  2021-11-22

  

  Zn2+ is the second most abundant trace metal in many cells and neurons in the brain. It regulates cellular functions such as gene expression, epigenetic enzymatic activity, protein structural stability, and neuronal plasticity. Zn2+ is particularly abundant in the cortex and limbic system, including

  2021-11-22

  

  LXRs are physiological regulators of cholesterol and lipid metabolism and influence glucose metabolism. In addition, they have been shown to repress transcription of certain pro-inflammatory genes (Jakobsson et al., 2012; Ogawa et al., 2005; Terasaka et al., 2005). Thus, LXRs can either activate or

  Attractively, existing reports suggest that cellular ferroptosis also probably plays vital role in liver fibrosis [[62], [63], [64]]. Carlson BA et al. illuminated that the ferroptosis regulator GPX4 was important for hepatocyte survival and proper liver function [62]. Sun X et al. showed that Nrf2

  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

  The progression of HIV varies from patient to patient, with some who progress slowly and others who progress much faster. However, CD4+ and CD8+ cell counts are intimately linked in those that are able to suppress the HIV infection (Walker et al., 1986; Saez-Aninon et al., 2007). Depletion of these

  The HDC knockout mouse as a pathophysiological model of TS The implication of a hypomorphic allele of the Hdc gene as a rare cause of TS (Ercan-Sencicek et al., 2010) created a rare opportunity for the generation of a pathophysiologically grounded model of the disorder.

  Conclusion The mitochondrial and glycolytic energy metabolism of the brain is coordinated by HKI binding to MOM, although the molecular mechanism of such a regulation is not yet clear. The kx2 for HKI in MOM are VDACs [[5], [6], [7]], mainly the VDAC1 isoform [8]. Using a computational model, we
