Neprilysin Deficiency Protects Against Fat-Induced Insulin Secretory Dysfunction by Maintaining Calcium Influx [PDF]
Neprilysin contributes to free fatty acid (FFA)-induced cellular dysfunction in nonislet tissues in type 2 diabetes. Here, we show for the first time that with prolonged FFA exposure, islet neprilysin is upregulated and this is associated with reduced ...

To identify the amyloid β peptide (Aβ) 1–42-degrading enzyme whose activity is inhibited by thiorphan and phosphoramidon in vivo, we searched for neprilysin (NEP) homologues and cloned neprilysin-likepeptidase (NEPLP) α, NEPLP β, and NEPLP γ cDNAs.

Abstract Background The pathophysiology of polyuria and polydipsia secondary to exogenous glucocorticoid excess is incompletely understood. Objective Investigate plasma AVP (pAVP) and serum CoP (sCoP) concentrations in healthy dogs before, during, and after abrupt discontinuation of a long‐term course of orally administered prednisolone.

The endothelins comprise three structurally similar 21-amino acid peptides. Endothelin-1 and -2 activate two G-protein coupled receptors, ETA and ETB, with equal affinity, whereas endothelin-3 has a lower affinity for the ETA subtype.

This study aimed to elucidate the impact of glutathione depletion on aging and neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's pathology (amyloid and tau pathologies). We demonstrated that glutathione reduction, mediated by glutamate‐cysteine ligase catalytic subunit (GCLC) deficiency, elevated Aβ42/40 levels and facilitated tau polymerization through disulfide‐bond ...
