  Introduction Dementia is a common disease in the elderly, and a significant source of disability, healthcare spending, and long-term care admissions. There is evidence to suggest that testosterone plays a role in cognitive functioning, and lower serum levels correlate with higher amyloid deposits (

  The lack of benefit in terms of overall survival for antiangiogenic treatment was similar when antiangiogenic drug was used both as first and second-line therapy, and both in association with cytotoxic treatment or alone. Noteworthy, a trend for an inferior outcome was observed in the group of patie

  Consistent with the in vitro results, memantine ameliorated Aβ-induced cytotoxicity in rat primary cortical cultures. Studies reported that memantine protected neurons against the damage caused by aggregated Aβ40 or Aβ42 oligomers in vivo[26], [27]. These results suggest that, in addition to its neu

  2023-02-20

  

  This study demonstrates numerical alterations of creatinine levels potentially reflecting ongoing or even higher myocardial contraction of the LAA after successful LAAC. Creatinine is the direct breakdown product of creatine in muscle, the key metabolite for energy supply during muscular and myocard

  Mitochondria from frozen-thawed bull sperm are capable of producing energy using pyruvate and lactate as substrates through oxidative pathways (Beorlegui et al., 1997). Based on the present study, heparin capacitated sperm had a lesser lactate concentration in the incubation medium, supporting the h

  2023-02-20

  

  The potential use of derivatives belonging to this series as therapeutic agents mostly depends on their pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. The pharmacokinetic phase includes absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME) of the studied compounds. Therefore, preliminary data for theore

  The present in vitro pharmacological experiments revealed that the cholinergic up-regulation of VEGF expression in neurons and astrocytes was mainly mediated by nicotinic AChR and muscarinic AChR, respectively. In addition, neuronal VEGF expression was elevated by endogenous ACh in a manner that was

  2023-02-20

  

  The gene SRD5A2 encodes the 5-α-reductase enzyme, which converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone. Although dihydrotestosterone levels are considerably lower than testosterone, dihydrotestosterone has a five-fold stronger binding capacity to the androgen receptor and, thereby, a considerably mo

  The present study has several limitations. First, the results were obtained using RAW264.7 cells, which are derived from BALB/c mice infected with the Abelson leukemia virus (Raschke et al., 1978). However, these cells, which are a commonly used mouse macrophage cell line, show properties similar to

  2023-02-20

  

  Protein phosphorylation is an important posttranslational mechanism for the regulation of distribution, trafficking, and function of modified proteins (Wang et al., 2014). GluA1 phosphorylation at S845 also has functional consequences (Lu and Roche, 2012). For instance, S845 phosphorylation drove t

  In conclusion, we report that the widely prescribed drug VPA exerts therapeutic effects on optic nerve demyelination and retinal degeneration in a mouse model of MS. Our findings raise an interesting possibility that combination therapy of VPA and ASK1 inhibition may be useful for treatment of autoi

  We initially established using fMRI that auditory processing by the caudomedial nidopallium (NCM) of male European starlings (Sturnus vulgaris) of species-specific aspects of songs (whistles and warblings i.e. high-pitched trills coming from the end of the warbling that are found in the repertoire o

  In the pituitary of R. quelen mRNA levels of cyp19a1b were found to be higher in males than females, suggesting a sex-specific function, and perhaps a local action to regulate gonadotropins or other pituitary hormone secretion (Olivereau and Callard, 1985; Zhang et al., 2014). Interestingly, the hig

  To further investigate the role of cholesterol in the Rh2-induced cytotoxicity, we then focused on the U937 cell line, which is cholesterol auxotroph and considered as a valuable model to study the importance of cholesterol in membrane structure and function (Billheimer et al., 1987), and used the e
