Proteinase-activated receptor-2 (PAR2) agonist causes periodontitis in rats
(2005-02-01)
Proteinase-activated receptor-2 (PAR2) is a G-protein-coupled receptor that mediates cellular responses to extracellular proteinases. Since PAR2 is expressed by oral epithelial cells, osteoblasts, and gingival fibroblasts, ...
Bone morphogenetic protein 15 and fibroblast growth factor 10 enhance cumulus expansion, glucose uptake, and expression of genes in the ovulatory cascade during in vitro maturation of bovine cumulus-oocyte complexes
(2013-07-01)
Oocyte-secreted factors (OSFs) regulate differentiation of cumulus cells and are of pivotal relevance for fertility. Bone morphogenetic protein 15 (BMP15) and fibroblast growth factor 10 (FGF10) are OSFs and enhance oocyte ...
High-resolution structures of mutants of residues that affectaccess to the ligand-binding cavity of human lipocalin-typeprostaglandin D synthase
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2014-05)
Lipocalin-type prostaglandin D synthase (L-PGDS) catalyzes the isomerization of the 9,11-endoperoxide group of PGH2 (prostaglandin H2) to produce PGD2 (prostaglandin D2) with 9-hydroxy and 11-keto groups. The product of ...
Peri-ovulatory endocrine regulation of the prostanoid pathways in the bovine uterus at early dioestrus
(Csiro Publishing, 2017-01-01)
We hypothesised that different endocrine profiles associated with pre-ovulatory follicle (POF) size would impact on uterine prostanoid pathways and thereby modulate the histotroph composition. Beef cows (n=15 per group) ...
Exenatide and sitagliptin decrease interleukin 1β, matrix metalloproteinase 9, and nitric oxide synthase 2 gene expression but does not reduce alveolar bone loss in rats with periodontitis
(Journal of Periodontology, 2015)
New drugs for the treatment of diabetes, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists and inhibitors of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) have shown pleiotropic effects on bone metabolism and anti-inflammatory properties. ...
