  Introduction The discovery that the nitric oxide (NO), soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC), and cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) pathway mediates erection has led to the use of phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE-5) inhibitors as the gold standard for treating erectile dysfunction (ED) through the inh

  The frequency of GSTM1 and GSTT1 null genotypes vary in different populations. For example, Hiragi et al. (2007) reported a frequency of 17–35% for the GSTM1 null genotype and 22–44% for the GSTT1 null genotype in Brazilians of African descent (Hiragi et al., 2007). Chen, Liu, and Relling (1996) rep

  Waldeck-Weiermair et al. (2008) demonstrated that in endothelial cells, the activation of GPR55 by application of 10µM anandamide resulted in a marked increase of ERK1/2 phosphorylation that was evident 2min following drug activation and was sustained for up to 3h. Another example comes from our unp

  Recently, a receptor for nicotinic acid, named GPR109A (also known as HM74a in man or PUMA-G in the mouse) has been identified (Lorenzen et al., 2001, Lorenzen et al., 2002, Soga et al., 2003, Tunaru et al., 2003, Wise et al., 2003). This receptor, a member of the 7 transmembrane G-protein coupled f

  In glioma, or glial-derived primary Cepharanthine synthesis tumors, as in other cancers, glutathione is an important survival mechanism. Glioma cells are dependent upon SXC-mediated cystine uptake for viability, as they require intracellular cystine/cysteine for GSH synthesis (Ogunrinu and Sontheim

  Glucose metabolism and diet Glucokinase is essential for sensing blood glucose levels, thus controls metabolism (Iynedjian, 1993, Iynedjian, 2009, Postic et al., 2001, Agius, 2008). Loss of glucokinase activity in humans and mice leads to diabetes (Printz et al., 1993b, Postic et al., 2001, Agius

  The sexual dimorphism in dlGALR1a and dlGALR1b receptors found in the gonads of adult fish led us to hypothesize that the gene expression difference between female and males might be attributed to the differences in steroid production between female and male gonads. Interestingly we have found that

  The second experiment investigated the possible neuronal mechanism underlying the effect of acupuncture. The baseline level of methamphetamine consumption in each group was similar, as in the first experiment (Fig. 2A). Acupuncture at HT7 also significantly inhibited the methamphetamine self-adminis

  FFAs concentration–response curves for increasing intracellular calcium and receptor phosphorylation showed a difference of ≈1 order of magnitude indicating a relatively large receptor reserve, which is expected for a transfected model, and that high receptor occupancy is necessary to induce recepto

  Hardy et al. had demonstrated the role of GPR40 in mediating the proliferative effect of the FFA oleate's in breast cancer cells, and found that such effect can be reversed by silencing of GPR40 [14]. Similarly we have observed that inhibition of GPR40 function by its antagonist GW1100 inhibited cel

  Conclusion In conclusion, we showed that apoptosis is involved in etoposide-induced pancreatic β-cell cytotoxicity. More importantly, as shown in Fig. 6, the results of this study demonstrated that etoposide induces pancreatic β-cell death via the JNK/ERK activation-mediated GSK-3 downstream-trig
