Endocannabinoid signaling of homeostatic status modulates functional connectivity in reward and salience networks
Rationale Endocannabinoids are well poised to regulate crosstalk between energy sensing of hunger and satiety and reward-driven motivation. Objectives Here, we aimed to unravel associations between plasma endocannabinoids ...
Astroglial role in the pathophysiology of status epilepticus : an overview
(2018)
Status epilepticus is a medical emergency with elevated morbidity and mortality rates, and represents a leading cause of epilepsy-related deaths. Though status epilepticus can occur at any age, it manifests more likely in ...
Homeostatic NMDA receptor down-regulation via brain derived neurotrophic factor and nitric oxide-dependent signalling in cortical but not in hippocampal neurons
(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2011-09)
Nitric oxide (NO) has been proposed to down-regulate NMDA receptors (NMDA-Rs) in a homeostatic manner. However, NMDA-R-dependent NO synthesis also can cause excitotoxic cell death. Using bicuculline-stimulated hippocampal ...
Elovl3: a model gene to dissect homeostatic links between the circadian clock and nutrition status
(American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2006-12)
The ELOVL3 protein is a very long-chain fatty acid elongase found in liver, skin, and brown adipose tissues. Circadian expression of the Elovl3 gene in the liver is perturbed in mutant CLOCK mice but persists in mice with ...
Update on the Functionality of Thymic Stromal Lymphopoietin and its Interaction with Dendritic Cells, to Trigger a Pro or Anti-Inflammatory Status
(SciTech Central Inc., 2020-11)
Thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) is a cytokine produced primarily by activated epithelial cells of the lung, skin and intestine. The foremost property of this cytokine is to condition dendritic cells (DC) to initiate ...
Present situation of biomarkers for copper status 1-3
(The American Society for Nutrition, 2008)
Serum or plasma copper and ceruloplasmin concentrations are the
most widely used laboratory indicators to evaluate copper status.
Both indicators are decreased in moderate or severe copper deficiency.
The activity of ...
Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase-telomere association correlates with redox status in trypanosoma cruzi
(Public Library Science, 2015-03-16)
Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) is a classical metabolic enzyme involved in energy production and plays a role in additional nuclear functions, including transcriptional control, recognition of misincorporated ...
Regulação da estequiometria (C:N:P) da biomassa de bactérias heterotróficas em ecossistemas de água doce de baixa latitude
(BrasilUFRNPROGRAMA DE PÓS-GRADUAÇÃO EM ECOLOGIA, 2017-12-19)
The heterotrophic bacteria are important nutrient mineralizers (e.g. nitrogen [N] and phosphorus
[P]) to the aquatic environment, subsidizing primary production and incorporating organic carbon
from the organic matter ...
Participação dos componentes homeostático e circadiano do sono no desempenho funcional em idosos institucionalizados
(BrasilUFRNPROGRAMA DE PÓS-GRADUAÇÃO EM PSICOBIOLOGIA, 2017-12-11)
Introduction: Aging is one of the phenomena that affect the regulation of the sleep-wake cycle (SWC) and its components, the circadian and homeostatic. Disorders in the SWC regulation are related to an important health ...
