A Review of Bile Acid Metabolism and Signaling in Cognitive Dysfunction-Related Diseases.

Bile acids are commonly known as one of the vital metabolites derived from cholesterol. The role of bile acids in glycolipid metabolism and their mechanisms in liver and cholestatic diseases have been well studied. In addition, bile acids also serve as ligands of signal molecules such as FXR, TGR5, and S1PR2 to regulate some physiological processes in vivo.

The Beneficial Effects of a Polysaccharide from Leaf on Gut Microecology in Mice.

is a natural plant with high nutritional and pharmacological value. Leaves of contain a variety of active substances. In our previous research, we had obtained a polysaccharide separated from leaf, namely MOs-2-a (1.

Recruitment of Nox4 to a plasma membrane scaffold is required for localized reactive oxygen species generation and sustained Src activation in response to insulin-like growth factor-I.

Nox4-derived ROS is increased in response to hyperglycemia and is required for IGF-I-stimulated Src activation. This study was undertaken to determine the mechanism by which Nox4 mediates sustained Src activation. IGF-I stimulated sustained Src activation, which occurred primarily on the SHPS-1 scaffold protein.
