Targets and Candidate Agents for Type 2 Diabetes Treatment with Computational Bioinformatics Approach

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Research, 2014
We sought to explore the molecular mechanism of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and identify potential drug targets and candidate agents for T2D treatment. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were assessed between human pancreatic islets with T2D and normal ...

Neprilysin Deficiency Protects Against Fat-Induced Insulin Secretory Dysfunction by Maintaining Calcium Influx [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
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 ...

Neprilysin Degrades Both Amyloid β Peptides 1–40 and 1–42 Most Rapidly and Efficiently among Thiorphan- and Phosphoramidon-sensitive Endopeptidases*

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2001
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.

Orally administered prednisolone decreases plasma arginine vasopressin and serum copeptin concentrations in healthy dogs

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 39, Issue 1, January/February 2025.
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.

Endothelin. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
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.

Neuronal glutathione depletion elevates the Aβ42/Aβ40 ratio and tau aggregation in Alzheimer's disease mice

open access: yesFEBS Letters, Volume 598, Issue 13, Page 1576-1590, July 2024.
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 ...
