  Introduction Adipose tissue (AT), in addition to its function as IMR-1 storage, is an important endocrine organ and it secretes adipokines (Ahima, 2006). Adipose tissue is related to different physiological processes such as energy metabolism, insulin sensitivity, and inflammation. One important

  Cichlasoma dimerus, as most teleost fish species, present neurons expressing GnRH3 (Pandolfi et al., 2005). As in most 5153 species, the neurons expressing GnRH3 are mainly located in the NOR, although few neurons were detected in the olfactory bulb, ventral telencephalon and the POA (González-Martí

  2022-05-26

  

  Although encoded by a single gene, GR displays considerable heterogeneity through the combined effects of alternative mRNA splicing, alternative translation initiation, and complex post-translational modification. Differential expression of the various GR isoforms may contribute to tissue-specific

  2022-05-26

  

  Regulation of pancreatic α and β cell mass has been extensively studied and hotly debated, due to potential therapeutic implications. Early claims of Angptl8 as “betatrophin” and Angptl4 as a regulator of glucagon secretion and α cell proliferation (Yi et al., 2013, Ben-Zvi et al., 2015) have not st

  2022-05-26

  

  Here, we used chemogenetic modulation of MBH GHSR neurons to address the role of the endogenous ghrelin system in the normal, hyperphagic response to a short-term fast. Studies demonstrating the requirement of an intact ghrelin-GHSR system for the rebound food intake following fasting have been inco

  Conversely, we find that dysfunction in lysosomal-autophagy system observed in human APP and PSEN1 mutant neurons can be reversed by β-secretase inhibition, which reduces the supply of APP-β-CTF to the late endosome and/or lysosome (Jiang et al., 2010). These data argue that accumulation and/or alte

• uPAR promotes cell associated proteolysis by binding to uPA

  2022-05-26

  

  uPAR promotes cell-associated proteolysis by binding to uPA which locally converts plasminogen into active plasmin [10]. Ligand-engaged uPAR also acts as a potent regulator of cell migration and matrix attachment. Being a membrane receptor, uPAR needs to interact with extracellular matrix (ECM) prot

• In principle an ideal Fenton reaction element

  2022-05-26

  

  In principle, an ideal Fenton reaction element should have multiple oxidation states to form a redox cycle in the process of H2O2 decomposition to HO•. Although iron is very effective in catalyzing Fenton reaction, it requires a low pH value (pH 2-4) to reach the optimal catalytic efficiency, which

  Classical drugs target the viral Sulfo-NHS-SS-Biotin synthesis reverse transcriptase (RT), protease and integrase (IN) [[4], [5], [6]]. Raltegravir (ISENTRESS/MK-0518) is the prototypical integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI) leading to an extremely strong reduction in viral load [7] and it ha

  Pharmacological anti-aging approaches and the Hippo pathway Aging and age-related pathologies are the main causes of disabilities and death. As Magalhañes and colleagues suggest, the challenges of developing anti-aging pharmacological therapies may, in part, be due to the complexity of aging mole

  Interestingly, myorelaxation and the stimulation of cGMP production are properties also reported for sGC stimulators, such as YC-1 and BAY 41–2272 (i.e., indazole compounds that were discovered in the 1990s) [35]. They relax aortic ring contractions induced by phenylephrine, and their effects are si

  Our study has strengths and limitations. We believe we are the 1st to report a novel model of secondary hypogonadism. Several animal models for hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (kisspeptin and the kisspeptin receptor knockout) exist but we are unaware of animal models of secondary hypogonadism with dif
