Antidepressant-like Effects of Neuropeptide SF (NPSF) [PDF]

World Journal of Research and Review (WJRR) ISSN:2455-3956, Volume-4, Issue-5, May 2017 Pages 26-30, 2020
Neuropeptide SF (NPSF) is a member of RFamide neuropeptides that play diverse roles in central nervous system. Little is know about the effects of NPSF on brain functions. Antidepressant-like effect of NPSF was studied in modified mice FST. NPSF showed the antidepressant-like effects by decreasing the immobility time and increasing the climbing and ...

Structure and regulation of desmosomes in intercalated discs: Lessons from epithelia

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 242, Issue 1, Page 81-90, January 2023., 2023
Adrenergic agonists act via PKA‐dependent PG phosphorylation at S665, leading to enhanced translocation of DSG2 to the desmosomes or area composita of the ICD and thereby increasing cardiomyocyte adhesion. On the other hand adrenergic agonists, PKC activation by PMA ,p38MAPK inhibition by SB202190 and digitoxin enhanced cardiomyocyte adhesion, in an ...

Deciphering the skeletal interoceptive circuitry to control bone homeostasis

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review introduces the skeletal interoceptive circuitry, covering the ascending signals from bone tissues to the brain (sensors), the central neural circuits that integrate this information and dispatch commands (CPU), and the descending pathways that regulate bone homeostasis (effectors).

Beta-adrenergic receptor antagonism is proinflammatory and exacerbates neuroinflammation in a mouse model of Alzheimer's Disease

Neurobiology of Disease, 2020
Adrenergic systems regulate both cognitive function and immune function. The primary source of adrenergic signaling in the brain is norepinephrine (NE) neurons of the locus coeruleus (LC), which are vulnerable to age-related degeneration and are one of ...

Regulation of cardiac sodium-calcium exchanger by beta-adrenergic agonists.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1996
Na+-Ca2+ exchanger and Ca2+ channel are two major sarcolemmal Ca2+-transporting proteins of cardiac myocytes. Although the Ca2+ channel is effectively regulated by protein kinase A-dependent phosphorylation, no enzymatic regulation of the exchanger ...

Serotonergic modulators in Alzheimer's disease: a hope in the hopeless condition

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Accepted Article.
Alzheimer disease (AD) is the main cause of dementia worldwide. AD is a progressive brain neurodegenerative disease due to genetic and environmental factors that induce a progressive accumulation of intracellular hyperphosphorylated tau protein and extracellular amyloid protein (Aβ).

The (--)[3H]dihydroalprenolol binding to rat adipocyte membranes: an explanation of curvilinear Scatchard plots and implications for quantitation of beta-adrenergic sites

Journal of Lipid Research, 1982
In rat adipocyte membranes, both beta-adrenergic agonists and beta-adrenergic antagonists competed with (--)[3H]dihydroalprenolol for high affinity (KD 2-4 nM) and low capacity binding sites.

Therapeutic strategies against cancer cachexia

European Journal of Translational Myology, 2019
Cancer cachexia has two main components: anorexia and metabolic alterations. The main changes associated with the development of this multi-organic syndrome are glucose intolerance, fat depletion and muscle protein hypercatabolism.
