  Kidney contributes importantly to the long-term blood pressure control via regulating sodium homeostasis. Renal proximal tubule (RPT) is one of the most critical segments for sodium reabsorption within kidney and therefore involved in blood pressure adjustment. This process is regulated by numerous

  2024-04-07

  

  Long term blood pressure regulation is linked to renal function through the mechanisms of pressure natriuresis (Evans et al., 2005), which has been shown to be modulated by the RAS (Hall et al., 1999). Key components of the RAS are expressed throughout the kidney, and are implicated in renal excreto

  Discussion Hepatic dysfunction in the metabolic syndrome is a driver of negative patient outcomes that requires more therapeutic options. The complexity of liver alterations in this disease – elevated de novo synthesis of fatty acids and cholesterol, reduced clearance of circulating atherogenic L

  Based on their different sources, the APN inhibitors (APNIs) can be divided into the natural products and synthetic compounds. Bestatin (1, Fig. 1), isolated from the Streptomyces oliuoreticuli by Umezawa et al., is the first reported and only marketed natural dipeptidomimetic inhibitor of APN. Afte

  2024-04-07

  

  AhR is also known to “cross-talk” with a variety of other cell signaling pathways, which has been the focus of a number of recent reviews [40], [41], [42]. It has long been known that TCDD is anti-estrogenic. For example, activation of AhR by TCDD and related HAHs inhibits estrogen dependent uterus

  Exposure to B[a]P is an epidemiologically proven cause of lung cancer (Hecht, 2003; Rojas et al., 2004; Alexandrov et al., 2010), and the formation of B[a]PDE-N2-dG adducts is considered to be the critical event in lung tumorigenesis by B[a]P. On the other hand, there is evidence suggesting that the

  Besides its multiple peripheral effects adiponectin may ameliorate insulin resistance by acting in the brain, and intracerebroventricular administration of adiponectin in rodents decreases body weight by stimulating energy expenditure [13]. Adiponectin most likely crosses the blood-CSF-barrier (BCB)

  2024-04-07

  

  Adiponectin belongs to the CTRP (C1q/TNF-related protein) superfamily. Except for adiponectin, 15 additional members have been identified (CTRP1-15) (Schaffler and Buechler, 2012). Of all the CTRPs, CTRP9 has the highest identity to adiponectin in globular domain (Wong et al., 2009). The structure o

  The indirect effect of corporate taxation, as given by the second term in Eq. (18), consists of two elements; (i) a standard MAZ51 receptor effect (τ/n2), and (ii) a capital cost effect (rG(1−αt)/(1−t)). With a CRS technology, the cost effect vanishes, whereas with an IRS (a DRS) technology the cos

  Maintaining the normal vaginal fluid acidity is important for vaginal functions (Wagner and Levin 1984). Estrogen has been shown essential in maintaining the acidity of vaginal fluid, in which its deficiency could cause vaginal fluid pH to increase (Gorodeski et al. 2005). After menopause, low estro

  The enzyme Arginase 1 (ARG1) plays a role in the hepatic urea cycle by hydrolyzing L-arginine to L-ornithine and urea [13]. In the context of macrophages and MDSCs, ARG1 expression redirects L-arginine metabolism to abolish cytotoxic nitric oxide production [14], suppress T-cell function [15], [16],
