Microarray gene expression profiling of neural tissues in bovine spastic paresis [PDF]

, 2013
: Background: Bovine Spastic Paresis (BSP) is a neuromuscular disorder which affects both male and female cattle. BSP is characterized by spastic contraction and overextension of the gastrocnemious muscle of one or both limbs and is associated with a ...

Adrenergic pathways in glycine-mediated feeding behavior: Evidence from layer chickens

Poultry Science
Glycinergic and adrenergic systems are integral to the regulation of meal consumption in avian species; however, the interactions between these systems have not been previously documented. This investigation was conducted to explore the interplay between

A novel phosphoglycerol serine-glycine lipodipeptide of Porphyromonas gingivalis is a TLR2 ligand

Journal of Lipid Research, 2020
Porphyromonas gingivalis is a Gram-negative anaerobic periodontal microorganism strongly associated with tissue-destructive processes in human periodontitis. Following oral infection with P.

High-throughput screening in larval zebrafish identifies novel potent sedative-hypnotics [PDF]

, 2018
BACKGROUND: Many general anesthetics were discovered empirically, but primary screens to find new sedative-hypnotics in drug libraries have not used animals, limiting the types of drugs discovered.

Glycine Transporter Blockade Ameliorates Motor Ataxia in a Mouse Model of Spinocerebellar Atrophy

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2009
Ataxic movement, the common major symptom of spinocerebellar atrophy, has been considered to involve impaired glutamatergic excitatory neurotransmission in the cerebellum.

CCDC80 suppresses high‐grade serous ovarian cancer migration via negative regulation of B7‐H3

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PAX8 is a lineage‐specific master regulator of transcription in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) progression. We show for the first time that PAX8 facilitates proliferation and metastasis by repressing the cell autonomous tumor suppressor CCDC80 and inducing B7‐H3 expression.

Disturbances of ligand potency and enhanced degradation of the human glycine receptor at affected positions G160 and T162 originally identified in patients suffering from hyperekplexia

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2015
Ligand-binding of Cys-loop receptors is determined by N-terminal extracellular loop structures from the plus as well as from the minus side of two adjacent subunits in the pentameric receptor complex. An aromatic residue in loop B of the glycine receptor

Cognitive impairment of MRL mice is related to NMDA receptor-mediated inflammatory response and production of adhesion molecules in MRL/lpr mice-derived micro-vascular endothelial cells

Folia Neuropathologica, 2023
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic recurrent autoimmune disease affecting almost all organs. This study was conducted to investigate cognitive impairment of SLE mice (MRL/lpr mice), and explore associated pathological mechanism.

USP29‐regulated noncanonical stabilization of the hypoxia‐inducible factor‐α in aggressive prostate cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We identify USP29 as the only DUB mirroring CA9 expression, a marker of hypoxia and HIF pathway activation associated with PCA aggressiveness. USP29 stabilizes HIF‐1α and HIF‐2α via a noncanonical mechanism that is independent of PHD/pVHL activity yet relies on proteasomal regulation, establishing USP29 as a previously unrecognized regulator of hypoxic

Allosteric modulation of glycine receptors.

British Jounral of Pharmacology, 2011
Inhibitory (or strychnine sensitive) glycine receptors (GlyRs) are anion-selective transmitter-gated ion channels of the cys-loop superfamily, which includes among others also the inhibitory γ-aminobutyric acid receptors (GABA(A) receptors). While GABA mediates fast inhibitory neurotransmission throughout the CNS, the action of glycine as a fast ...
