The NADPH oxidase NOX4 regulates redox and metabolic homeostasis preventing HCC progression
Loss of NOX4 in HCC tumor cells induces metabolic reprogramming in a Nrf2/MYC‐dependent manner to promote HCC progression. Abstract Background and Aims The NADPH oxidase NOX4 plays a tumor‐suppressor function in HCC. Silencing NOX4 confers higher proliferative and migratory capacity to HCC cells and increases their in vivo tumorigenic potential in ...

Spatially Resolved Mapping of Monoacylglycerol Lipase Activity in the Brain. [PDF]
Abstract Visualizing signaling systems in the brain with high spatial resolution is critical to understand brain function and to develop therapeutics. Especially enzymes are often regulated on the post-translational level, resulting in a disconnect between protein levels and activity.

Therapeutic potential of monoacylglycerol lipase inhibitors [PDF]
Marijuana and aspirin have been used for millennia to treat a wide range of maladies including pain and inflammation. Both cannabinoids, like marijuana, that exert anti-inflammatory action through stimulating cannabinoid receptors, and cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitors, like aspirin, that suppress pro-inflammatory eicosanoid production have shown ...

Association of MGLL Intronic C>T Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (rs782440) with Borderline Personality Disorder: A Case-Control Study [PDF]
Objective: From the perspective of etiology, borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a multifactorial and complexdisorder, hence our understanding about the molecular basis and signaling of this disorder is extremely limited.The purpose of this study ...

Hydrolysis of rat chylomicron acylglycerols: a kinetic model
A quantitative model describing the kinetics of hydrolysis of rat chylomicron acylglycerols by bovine milk lipoprotein lipase has been developed using data from studies on rat lymph chylomicrons containing doubly labeled acylglycerols.

Intrinsic up-regulation of 2-AG favors an area specific neuronal survival in different in vitro models of neuronal damage [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoyl glycerol (2-AG) acts as a retrograde messenger and modulates synaptic signaling e. g. in the hippocampus. 2-AG also exerts neuroprotective effects under pathological situations.
