  Introduction Soluble guanylyl cyclase (GC-1) maintains vascular function through the NO/GC-1/cGMP pathway [1,2] by catalyzing the conversion of GTP into cGMP (Fig. 1). The GC-1 heme prosthetic group binds NO with picomolar affinity, resulting in a 100- to 200-fold increase in catalytic activity.

  This variant has also been related to a better treatment response in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer subjected to irinotecan-based chemotherapy (Kweekel et al., 2008). Inheritance of this metabolic variability has also been stated to influence better treatment outcomes in breast cancer p

  Despite the rapid development of synthetic ligands, the endogenous ligands of GPR109A, GPR109B and GPR81 remained elusive until recently. This is probably the result of their relatively low potencies and their metabolite character (Table 1). Traditionally, agonists of GPCRs were believed to belong t

  GPR119 agonistic activity was evaluated for the human GPR119 receptor in a cell-based cAMP assay. The results expressed the potency as EC values and the inherent activity (IA) as percentages which were compared to the test compound with oleoylethanolamide (OEA), an endogenous ligand of GPR119 (defin

  Taking into account abovementioned, vitamin D3 deficiency effects on synaptic neurotransmission can be considered as targeting both Ca2+-independent and Ca2+-dependent processes. Ca2+-independent action of vitamin D3 deficiency is associated with a decrease in the expression of glutamate and GABA tr

  Xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes are classified as being phase I, phase II and transporter enzymes, with phase I enzymes metabolizing lipophyllic xenobiotics to make them more polar so that the phase II enzymes can perform the necessary conjugation reactions that afford elimination. Although the phas

  Recent studies have elucidated a profound role for FFA4 in modulation of metabolism and energy utilization as well as endocrine and immune function, and as a consequence, have thrust FFA4 to the forefront of drug discovery efforts. For example, activation of FFA4 by fatty L-Homopropargyl Glycine aus

  In Apicomplexan parasites such as Toxoplasma gondii isoprenoids are biosynthesized through the DOXP/MEP pathway as illustrated in Scheme 2. In addition, T. gondii possesses a bifunctional FPPS/GGPPS (TgFPPS) that is able to catalyze the formation of both FPP and GGPP.5, 6 The FPPS gene appears to be

  Interestingly, evidence has emerged recently that suggests noncanonical roles of EZH2 in various cancers. For example, in addition to histone H3, EZH2 has been shown to methylate non-histone substrates, such as Jarid2 and STAT3, to regulate their transcriptional activities (He et al., 2012, Sanulli

  This crosstalk may be responsible for the beneficial effects of histamine H2 receptor inverse agonists on nmda receptor pathologies and may also explain unwanted effects of these drugs on other tissues. In this way, Allen et al. reported an anaphylactoid reaction following cessation of high-dose ra

  The other possibility for the lack of effects of H1 receptor agonists, e.g. histamine, on the NMDAR-mediated responses is that other neurotransmitters may cause more profound effects than histamine on the gliotransmitter release from astrocytes. For example, recent studies showed that noradrenaline,

  Here, we used Drosophila and mouse models to address the biological function of RALs in the adult intestine. Our results demonstrate a conserved in vivo role for RALs in ISC function during tissue homeostasis and regeneration. ISCs lacking RALs were at a disadvantage compared to wild-type neighbors.
