  We are pursuing a hit-to-lead medicinal chemistry campaign to optimize inhibitors of the HBV RNaseH. Here, we report the activity of seven new HIDs and nine new HPDs, with significant improvements in in vitro potency and cytotoxicity profiles for the HPD compounds. Materials and methods Result

  Animal models of NASH The human NAS system (see above) is largely reproducible in NAFLD mouse models [37] and, therefore, has been increasingly applied in the preclinical assessment of liver histological responses to test compounds. In general, the NAS system is well suited for this purpose, alth

  The typical pharmacophore for GPR40 agonists contains four parts: head (acid moiety), central (phenyl ring), linker and tail (aromatic carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring) [20]. On the other hand, the chemical features that are required for the PPARγ agonists include hydrogen bond donors and acceptors

  While CART increased circulating levels of GIP and GLP-1 in vivo, we were unable to detect any effect of exogenous CART on GIP and GLP-1 mRNA expression or GLP-1 secretion in vitro. There is no ready explanation for this discrepancy. The CART doses used (both in vivo and in vitro) have been shown to

  2021-12-04

  

  Emerging evidence has shown that pharmacological FXR agonism attenuates chronic alcohol treatment-induced liver injury and steatosis [18], [19], while whole-body FXR knockout worsens alcohol-induced liver injury [19]. This suggests that FXR plays an important role in ALD development. However, defici

  2021-12-04

  

  BDNF is intricately implicated in energy homeostasis (Hamdouchi et al., 2016; Schwartz and Mobbs, 2012), regulation of mood (Sartorius et al., 2015) and adult neurogenesis (Taliaz et al., 2010; Waterhouse et al., 2012), our primary focus was to evaluate the effects of GPR40 stimulation on BDNF expre

  On the other hand, Li+ (Zhang et al., 1996) and Ca2+ (Gizak et al., 2004) cations inhibit FBPases. However, in the case of Ca2+, the inhibition is attributed solely to the muscle isozyme which is over 100 times more susceptible to the cation action than the liver isoform (Gizak et al., 2004). At the

  In the current study, Olfml1 knockdown increased YAP but decreased the respective target genes of canonical Wnt signaling and Hedgehog signaling, Axin2 and Gli1. YAP suppresses canonical Wnt via binding to Dishevelled and/or β-catenin [[39], [40], [41], [42]]. Tariki et al. reported that adenovirus-

  In the present study, fasting blood glucose and insulin levels were not significantly different between GA patients and control cases. Normal mammalian cells typically acquire fatty acids from the circulation owing to insulin, which is the most lipogenic hormone in the subset of adult tissues, inclu

  The global spread and ever-increasing incidence of metabolic syndrome over the past few decades has not only categorized it as an ‘epidemic’ but has also dramatically increased the risk of cardiovascular diseases and diabetes. The increase in prevalence of diabetes in the United States alone has bee

  Mechanisms of action Ghrelin is a 28-amino Progesterone peptide hormone primarily produced in the oxyntic mucosa of stomach, but also in other gastrointestinal tissues [7] (Fig. 1). It acts as the endogenous ligand for the ghrelin receptor [GHS-R1a] and causes the release of growth hormone from
