  In our previous studies examining erectile responses in sGCα1−/− mice, we found that the sGCα1 subunit was required to obtain proper erectile responses to substances generally known to exert their actions by sGC.17, 18 Based on our previous observation of residual relaxing responsiveness to exogenou

  NO-GC-1 pathway and implications for glaucoma Direct in vivo measurement of NO in the eye is not yet feasible. However, measurement of nitrate and nitrite levels are routinely used as markers for the activity of NOS and the production of NO radicals [98]. Several studies in human glaucoma patient

  2021-10-22

  

  In plants, NO production is one of the early responses to stress (Tossi, Lamattina, & Cassia, 2009). Usually, NO signal transduction requires the involvement of downstream signaling compounds. We further investigated the effects of cGMP on GSK-3 expression. The data showed that LY83583 (a cGMP inhib

  Concluding remarks Several orphan GPCRs have expression profiles that indicate they are worthy of consideration as therapeutic targets. This view can be supported via various transgenic techniques, and it would be interesting to have wide-ranging phenotypic information on GPR35 knockout mice. Bas

  In 2001, three groups independently proposed two different mechanisms for the catalytic reaction of GlxI [5], [6], [7]. Richter and Krauss (RK) used HF/4–31G calculations of the active site, coupled with a frozen effective fragment potential description [8], [9] of eleven residues in the binding sit

  Transmembrane AMPA receptor regulatory proteins (TARPs) are a relatively newly discovered protein family. Prototypic TARP, stargazin, was found by a spontaneous mutation in ataxic stargazer mouse line as a homologous protein to γ1 calcium channel subunit (Letts et al., 1998). The role of stargazin i

  Due to its unusually long pre-implantation period [20,21], the horse conceptus is entirely dependent on histotrophic nutrition for the first 40 days of gestation [22]. During the pre-implantation period, glucose transporters in the endometrium and conceptus membranes must deliver the glucose require

  Pharmacological inhibition of PKR seems to be an interesting strategy for revealing the role of PKR in oxytosis and ferroptosis. The oxindole/imidazole derivative C16 was identified by screening a library of 26 different ATP-binding site-directed inhibitors of varying structure that is more selecti

  Challenges and open questions Deepening our understanding of PKC’s role in GSIS will require harnessing recently developed techniques and developing new tools. Here we describe three challenges remaining in the field and offer suggestions on experimental approaches to address them. PKC plays an

  Two classes of histones demethylases have thus far been identified: the Jumonji C (JmjC) domain-containing proteins and the amine oxidase domain (AOD)-containing proteins. They have distinct enzymatic mechanisms and substrate specificity. The JmjC domain is conserved through evolution and belongs to

  We first investigated the influence of the -acyl group of the glycine amide side chain and found that shorter linkers lead to better activities (–); simple -benzoyl substituents were always superior to the 3-arylpropanoyl group present in the high-throughput hit (). Electron withdrawing substituents

  Ghrelin contains an n-octanoylation at its Ser3 residue (Kojima et al., 1999). While des-acyl ghrelin is found in high concentrations in the blood, only the lipidated form is active at GHSR (Bednarek et al., 2000). We previously showed that ghrelin interacts with the membrane via its lipid modifica

  In order to test whether the enhanced hyperpolarization in the presence of increasing amounts of extracellular Ca2+ could be due to an ionophore effect of NS309, red cell uptake of 45Ca and partition of 45Ca into a water/n-octanol phase +/−100 μM NS309 were determined. However, no indication of iono
