  2022-07-11

  

  The ester moiety is a promising structural motif at the C-3 position for the development of drug-like molecules. However, the labile C-3 ester bond impels these derivate to be susceptible to plasmatic degradation by esterases and this is natural steroidal metabolic process [39,40]. Hence, the isoste

  2022-07-11

  

  The structure and activity of GLUT1 has been most intensively studied in erythrocytes, in which this transporter makes up 10–20% of membrane protein content. Carruthers has shown that, while GLUT1 can exist and transport glucose as monomers, dimers and tetramers, in erythrocytes GLUT1 exists predomi

  Acknowledgements Introduction Protein translation demands high fidelity. There are number of molecular checkpoints to fulfill this demand. Among these, insuring that a particular tRNA gets aminoacylated by its conjugate amino acid, which in turn is catalyzed by a particular aminoacyl-tRNA synt

  Fig. 2A demonstrates the body weight gain of the pregestational females. High-fat diet in wild-type mice increased body weight in 2 weeks and sustained this increase over 8 weeks. A similar effect was noted in glut3 mice in response to a high-fat diet. Fig. 2B depicts fat and muscle mass as assessed

  Since the late 1940s, synthetic GC (e.g. prednisone, prednisolone, dexamethasone) have been used extensively in the treatment of chronic inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and asthma, and for their immunosuppressant action in preventing organ rejection post transplantation. Cortico

  The structural modelling studies gave a view of arsenic mediated covalent modifications possible in Cx43. In order to look for the biochemical effects of Arsenic on Cx43 and Cx43 mediated GJIC formation, and in order to further decipher the mechanism involved in Arsenic induced decreases in expressi

  2022-07-08

  

  Hexokinases (HXKs) are major regulatory enzymes in sugar metabolism and in sugar sensing in plants (Claeyssen and Rivoal, 2007, Granot et al., 2013, Sheen, 2014, Aguilera-Alvarado and Sánchez-Nieto, 2017). HXK can phosphorylate both glucose and fructose to respective hexose-6-phosphates as a first s

  Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a major cause of chronic liver disease that can lead to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. It is estimated that nearly 200 million individuals worldwide are currently infected with HCV and it is the leading cause of liver transplants. The current standard

  Urinary As species monomethylated (MMAV) percentage might increase and As species dimethylated (DMAV) percentage might decrease with increasing As exposure dosage (Lindberg et al., 2008). The limited methylation capacity associated with increased of As exposure dosage might probably explained throug

  Similar to Rac1, Cdc42, and RhoA, expression of Rnd3 is also increased under hypoxic conditions, involving Hif1α mediated transcriptional activity. Here, downregulation of Rnd3 abolishes hypoxia-induced cell migration via a mechanism involving the chemokine receptor C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 4

  Two distinct mechanisms have been described for niacin’s macrophage-based actions [21,22]. First, niacin blocks recruitment of macrophages to atherosclerotic lesions. Second, niacin upregulates macrophage ABCA1 and ABCG1, transporters involved in reverse cholesterol transport. Upregulation of choles

  Several studies have sought a cross-relationship between commensal bacteria-derived metabolites and the Gprs (Blad et al., 2012). Gpr81 is expressed primarily in adipocytes, and hence, lactate-Gpr81 interaction inhibits lipolysis (Cai et al., 2008, Liu et al., 2009). Lactate reduced inflammation by
