  Material and methods Results Discussion This study explores the hypothesis that ASK1, via transcriptional upregulation by E2F1, molecularly defines AT that supports a dys-metabolic obese phenotype in humans. We demonstrate associations between increased visceral-AT ASK1 expression and multi

  Conclusion In conclusion, the arginase from P. aeruginosa IH2 was purified with electrophoretic homogeneity. Purified enzyme was homo-dimer and showed significant activity and catalytic stability near to the pH of circulating system and temperature of human body. The prolonged serum and proteolyt

  l-Arginine supplementation was reported to be efficient, inefficient or toxic in aged patients. The present study does not support our hypothesis that increased tissue arginase activity may account for the ineffectiveness and even the toxicity of l-arginine supplementation in ageing. Indeed, except

  2023-11-28

  

  Introduction AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is mainly known as a highly conserved and ubiquitously expressed energy sensor that is highly sensitive to changes in cellular energy levels (by sensing increases in AMP:ATP and ADP:ATP ratios) and makes appropriate adjustment to balance the consumpt

  The evidence points toward a role for 12/15-LO activity in WAT in modulating chronic local inflammation and subsequent systemic metabolic decline in the obese state. However, little is known as to the role of 12- and 15-LOs in BAT. Indeed, in addition to WAT, platelet- and leukocyte-type 12-LO are e

• AR is an enzyme involved in conversion

  2023-11-28

  

  AR is an enzyme involved in conversion of glucose into sorbitol using NADPH as a cofactor [46]. This AR polyol pathway generates sorbitol accumulation and NADPH depletion. NADPH participates in detoxification via glutathione (GSH) reductase pathway [47]. Therefore, reduction of NADPH attenuates remo

  Various compounds have been designed to inhibit aldose reductase (AR) [12]. These compounds can be classified into two main categories, the first category comprises those containing a carboxylic trpv1 moiety, for example, 3-thiazolidineacetic acid derivative, which has been reported to be a potent

  2023-11-28

  

  Unlike in humans, hepatic expression of FGF21 increases in mice consuming KD and is a necessary mediator of the physiologic adaptations to the diet. FGF21 knockout (KO) mice gain, rather than lose weight on the diet [6]. FGF21 also activates BAT in part by increasing SNS drive [3,7]. In addition, th

  In addition, we aimed to examine the possible role of adiponectin in modulating changes in IR. It was observed that there was a simultaneous decline in expression of IR and AdipoR1 proteins in the ovary of PCOS-mice as compared to the control ovary. Further, a strong correlation was found between ch

  Another interesting interaction concerns NMDA preconditioning to protect against glutamate neurotoxicity. It has been shown that an A1R antagonist prevented neuroprotection evoked by NMDA preconditioning against glutamate-induced cellular damage in cerebellar granule cells. In this study, the functi

  Molecular docking is widely used to predict the interaction between an enzyme and its inhibitors. This is a computational simulation approach that can be used as a tool to investigate the structure-activity relationship of ACE inhibitory peptides (Goodsell, 2009). It has been recently shown that ACE

  Physiological total plasma LPA levels are normally less than 1μM in healthy subjects. LPA levels have been reported to be increased in malignant effusions or plasma in cancer patients [20]. In addition, increasing ATX activity detected in healthy pregnant women in the third trimester of pregnancy ex
