  At the second step, blind docking simulation of 150 independent runs was performed with smaller grid box. Structures of open (1v4t.pdb), semi-closed (4dch.pdb) and two structures of closed configuration of GK (pdb codes are 1v4s and 3vev) were used for simulation (for detailed explanations on can se

  Various strategies have been pursued in the search for GIPR antagonists. Antibodies raised against both GIP(1–42) [14], [15] or the GIPR [16], [17], a small molecule antagonist [18], amino farnesyl diphosphate synthase substitutions of GIP(1–42) [19], and various GIP(1–42) truncations and modificati

  Conclusions Acknowledgement Work in the authors’ labs was funded by Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (OGP0194652 and OGP0041653) and Diabète Québec. Introduction Fifty years ago, Sydney Brenner proposed Caenorhabditis elegans as a useful model for the study of an

  Determination of enzyme activity differs from other analytical procedures. In this glycogen phosphorylase case, instead of enzyme concentration, a substrate depletion or product accumulation should be monitored. Such approach allows calculating activity basis of calibration curves performed for enz

  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

  FXR agonists represent an attractive class of drugs for patients with PFIC. Synthetic and semi-synthetic FXR agonists, with higher affinity and potency to activate FXR, have been successfully tested in animal models of cholestasis. In these murine models, the semi-synthetic steroidal FXR ligand obet

  Channeling of SFA away from generation of toxic lipid metabolites such as ceramide, towards inert TG accumulation in response to cosupplementation with increased levels of MUFAs has previously been shown in many cell types including the pancreatic β-cells [37]. Our studies indicate that similar mech

  Lastly, certain populations of immune cells may be Hh responsive. Although PC have not been demonstrated in healthy liver-resident macrophages or lymphocytes, macrophages in injured livers have been shown to produce Hh ligands[58], [100], [101] and treating liver-derived macrophages with neutralisin

  Introduction Hedgehog (HH) signaling regulates development, cell proliferation, and tissue repair [1], [2], [3]. In mammals, HH signaling is activated by 3 ligands: Sonic hedgehog (SHH), Indian hedgehog (IHH), or Desert hedgehog; SHH is the most widely expressed in adult tissues [3]. The primary re

  Here, we show that CT229 recruits multiple Rab GTPases and Rab effector proteins to the inclusion; the CT229 Inc protein redirects and intercepts host clathrin-coated vesicles (CCVs). CT229 is required for recruitment of transferrin (Tfn) positive CCV’s from the recycling pathway to the periphery of

  Introduction Substantial body of evidence supports the notion that GABA, the dominant inhibitory neurotransmitter in the hypothalamus of mammals, affects GnRH release by two classes of membrane receptors: GABAA (GABAAR) [1] and GABAB (GABAB R) [2]. Studies in rodents and sheep have documented that

  To shed more light on the binding of benzophenanthridine to GlyT1, we studied how the replacement of certain residues around the sanguinarine sensitive cysteine 475 previously identified (Jursky et al., 2012) affects GlyT1 inhibition of by these alkaloids. Based on these results we propose a putativ

  Introduction Glucagon is a peptide hormone that acts to increase blood glucose levels. The secretion of glucagon from the alpha Fmoc-Ala-OH of the islets of Langerhans in the pancreas is increased during fasting and prevents hypoglycemia. Glucagon increases glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis and

  Considering the conformational preferences of the SRSRY sequence in the x-ray structures of soluble uPAR (SuPAR) [18], [19], [20], [50], [51], it is included in a quite flexible linker delimited by Cys76 and Cys95 residues. The SRSRY sequence adopts either α-turned or β-extended conformation. In any
