  In glaucoma, the primary retinal defect appears in the GCL, whereas the other retinal layers appear normal (Kendell et al., 1995). In the current work, chronic elevation of IOP induced RGC apoptosis, especially in the GCL, and α2 adrenergic treatment reduced RGC apoptosis. Various studies have repor

  2023-08-29

  

  Adenosine is an endogenous nucleoside that plays pivotal roles in different physiological and pathophysiological processes by triggering specific cell-surface receptors both in the retinoic acid and in the periphery. The adenosine receptors (ARs) are four different subtypes of G protein-coupled rec

  2023-08-29

  

  The physiological effect of adenosine is now considered a new direction in halting the progression of organ damage in cardiovascular disease [24], [25], [26]. Adenosine has diverse functions, depending on its interaction with different receptor subtypes: A1, A2A, A2B, and A3[24], [25], [26]. Stimula

  2023-08-29

  

  Macrophage polarization is linked to activation of the ligand-dependent transcription factor PPARγ. Recently, Odegaard et al. demonstrated with a macrophage-specific deletion of PPARγ in mice that alternative macrophage activation is impaired [14]. We provided evidence that contact to apoptotic CNQX

  The cytochrome P450 enzyme 17α-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase (P450) is involved in the production of the C containing androgen precursors from the C containing steroids such as the pregnanes and progestins (). Steroids such as androstenedione (AD) and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) are therefore synthesi

  In this review, we will present the traditional and actual strategies to study orphan receptors and identify their ligands. An extensive description of the orphan GPCR field has been published in 2013 by Davenport et al. [22]. Therefore, we will focus on the deorphanizations that were reported since

  Because 5α-R2 gene is positively regulated by T and in the prostate gland (Torres et al., 2003), and our BPA-treated rats showed decreased circulating T and probably intraprostatic androgen levels, it might be responsible for the decrease of 5α-R2 expression. However, in a previous work using castra

  To investigate the potential link between Gβγ and MT assembly in vivo, cultured NIH3T3 and PC12 cells were used. The role of Gβγ in MT assembly was demonstrated using nocodazole, a MT depolymerizing drug [14]. We found that Gβγ was preferentially bound to MTs in NIH3T3 and PC12 cells and treatment w
