Move beyond free radical theory of aging

open access: yesiMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Free radicals play a dual, dose‐dependent role in aging. Low levels activate the key sensor adenosine 5'‐monophosphate‐activated protein kinase (AMPK), promoting cell survival mechanisms like autophagy and enhancing mitochondrial health. High levels, however, push AMPK to initiate cell death pathways, such as apoptosis. This positions AMPK as a central

Signalling mechanisms of long term facilitation of breathing with intermittent hypoxia. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Intermittent hypoxia causes long-term facilitation (LTF) of respiratory motor nerve activity and ventilation, which manifests as a persistent increase over the normoxic baseline for an hour or more after the acute hypoxic ventilatory response.

Non‐Histone Lactylation: A New Frontier in Cerebral Ischemia‐Reperfusion Injury

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reperfusion therapy is the mainstay of treatment for ischemic stroke (IS) but frequently exacerbates secondary injury. Following cerebral ischemia and hypoxia, lactate accumulates markedly. Traditionally regarded as a metabolic byproduct, lactate has gained new significance with the discovery of protein lactylation. In addition to experimental

ATP- and Adenosine-Mediated Signaling in the Central Nervous System: Adenosine Stimulates Glutamate Release From Astrocytes via A2a Adenosine Receptors

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2004
Adenosine enhanced intracellular Ca2+ concentrations in astrocytes via A2a adenosine receptors involving protein kinase A (PKA) activation. The Ca2+ rise is inhibited by brefeldin A, an inhibitor of vesicular transport; but not by neomycin and U73122 ...

Repeatability of Rapid Human Cardiac Phosphorus MRSI (31P‐MRSI) Using Concentric Ring Trajectory Readouts at 7 T

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose PCr/ATP ratio is determined at 7 T typically using Fourier‐transform based magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging sequences (FT‐MRSI). These sequences require acquisition times longer than desirable for inclusion in cardiac clinical trials. Concentric ring trajectory (CRT‐MRSI) has been described as an accelerated alternative k‐space

Adenosine A2A receptor binding profile of two antagonists, ST1535 and KW6002: consideration on the presence of atypical adenosine A2A binding sites

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2010
Adenosine A2A receptors seem to exist in typical (more in striatum) and atypical (more in hippocampus and cortex) subtypes. In the present study, we investigated the affinity of two adenosine A2A receptor antagonists, ST1535 [2 butyl -9-methyl-8-(2H-1,2 ...

Quaternary structure of a G-protein-coupled receptor heterotetramer in complex with Gi and Gs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), in the form of monomers or homodimers that bind heterotrimeric G proteins, are fundamental in the transfer of extracellular stimuli to intracellular signaling pathways.

Cardenolide‐Engineered Extracellular Vesicles Augment Drug Uptake and Cytotoxicity in Non‐small Cell Lung Cancer Cells

open access: yesSmall Methods, EarlyView.
Cardenolide‐functionalized extracellular vesicles enable targeted delivery of the chemotherapeutic doxorubicin to A549 lung cancer cells by binding Na+/K+‐ATPase, which is overexpressed in these cells. Surface‐modified, drug‐loaded EVs exhibit enhanced cytotoxicity compared to unmodified EVs and free drug, suggesting this system may lower the effective
