In anaesthetised rats recordings were made of sympathetic activity in renal nerves whilst studying the effects of intrathecal injection of the substance P antagonist (D-Arg1, D-Pro2, D-Trp7,9, Leu11)-substance P on the responses to, stimulation of the ventrolateral medulla, to intrathecal injection of substance P, serotonin and glutamate. All responses were abolished by the antagonist.

Facing the need for alternative models allowing assessment of metabolic-endocrine disrupting chemicals (MDCs), especially in poorly investigated tissues such as the intestine, we recently developed a transgenic zebrafish embryo in vivo model, tg(cyp3a65:GFP), expressing the Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) under the control of the zebrafish cyp3a65 promoter, ortholog of human cyp3a4, a gene coding for a key enzyme of intestinal xenobiotic and endobiotic metabolism. In this study, we aimed to better understand the regulation of cyp3a65 expression by zfPXR, zfAhR2, and zfGR zebrafish orthologs of well-known human xenosensors PXR and AhR, and steroid nuclear receptor GR. For this purpose, we performed zebrafish embryo tg(cyp3a65:GFP) (co)exposures to a variety of agonists (clotrimazole, TCDD, fluticasone propionate) and antagonists (econazole nitrate, CH223181, RU486), which were characterized using in vitro zebrafish reporter gene assays.

Disturbance in sleep and activity rhythms are significant health risks associated with alcohol use during adolescence. Many investigators support the theory of a reciprocal relationship between disrupted circadian rhythms, sleep patterns, and alcohol usage. However, in human studies it is difficult to disentangle other factors (i.

Fifteen compounds (-) constructed on a hybrid structure combining a β-phenyl-α,β-unsaturated carbonyl template and a 2-aminothiazol-4(5)-one scaffold were designed and synthesized as potential novel anti-tyrosinase substances. Two compounds ( and ) showed more potent inhibition against mushroom tyrosinase than kojic acid, and the inhibitory activity of (IC value: 1.60 μM) was 11 times stronger than that of kojic acid.

The recent coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has exerted considerable impact on global health. To prepare for rapidly mutating viruses and for the forthcoming pandemic, effective therapies targeting the critical stages of the viral life cycle need to be developed. Viruses are dependent on the interaction between the receptor-binding domain (RBD) of the viral Spike (S) protein (S-RBD) and the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor to efficiently establish infection and the following replicate.

: Anthracyclines remain a pivotal element of numerous tumor management regimens; however, their utilization is associated with a range of adverse effects, the most significant of which is cardiotoxicity. Research is constantly being conducted to identify substances that could be incorporated into ongoing cancer chemotherapy to mitigate anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity. Recently, the apelinergic system has received a lot of attention in this field due to its involvement in cardiovascular regulation.
