  2021-10-08

  

  Urinary 1-hydroxypyrene (1-OHP) is a widely used biological marker of exposure to PAHs and indicator for internal dose of activated PAHs (Jongeneelen, 1987, Adonis et al., 2003). PAH metabolites may be excreted either as free or as conjugated compounds. When 1-OHP is measured after treating the urin

  2021-10-08

  

  Using embelin and its analogs as surrogate GPR84 agonists we discovered that GPR84 couples to G12 and G13 signaling pathways in addition to Gi, linking receptor function to Rho/Rac signaling and modulation of the cytoskeleton. In primary human macrophages, GPR84 activation leads to Gβγ signaling, Er

  With this goal in mind, we proceeded to explore the C5-heteroaryl class of pyrazole-acids. Initial efforts, focused on a thiophene replacement, demonstrated little improvement. The 2-thiophene derivative (0.25μM and 0.24μM), a surrogate to the phenyl moiety, demonstrated only a modest boost in acti

  2021-10-08

  

  Introduction Glycine (Fig. 1; 1) has two pivotal functions as neurotransmitter in the central nervous system (CNS). Firstly, it can act as an inhibitory neurotransmitter at inhibitory glycinergic synapses where it binds to the strychnine-sensitive glycine-A binding site on glycine receptors (GlyR)

  Oxidative stress results from the disequilibrium between levels of prooxidant molecules produced and the ability of a biological system to detoxify and neutralize the reactive molecules [14]. OS is a chronic, self-perpetuating state of damage to cells and increased inflammation resulting from the co

  In patients with type 2 diabetes glucagon receptor antagonism led lowered fasting glucose however not postprandial glucose levels [9], which may reflect that glucagon may not be of particular importance for the diabetic hyperglycemia upon a meal. Current glucagon receptor antagonists have however be

  It is generally considered that elevated blood glucose due to insulin resistance is an important factor in islet compensation to high fat feeding [27]. However, we have shown recently that insulin resistance induced in mice by hydrocortisone injection provokes significant islet CCT129202 in the abs

  Among 22 sensitizers tested in the previous study, six test chemicals were pre- or pro-haptens (Nepal et al., 2018a). Among 6 chemicals, hydroquinone and 2-aminophenol, strong sensitizers, were falsely classified as non-sensitizers due to the lack of metabolic activation (Nepal et al., 2018a). Liter

  Studies have indicated that formylated peptides, FPRs, and in particular FPR-1 may be principal conductors in inflammatory processes in sterile-24, 26 and infection-related diseases. FPR-1 and formylated peptides, which are active components of CS, have been involved in smoking-induced lung damage,

  In conclusion, we demonstrate, for the first time, that histamine plays a key role in regulating astrocyte function and gliotransmitter release, and we now must re-consider the roles of monoamine neurotransmitters in brain function in the context of astrocyte signalling. Further in vivo studies will
