Compartmentalisation of cAMP in Brown Adipocytes
(2022-02-14)
The second messenger, 3',5'-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) plays an important role in governing the function and differentiation of brown adipocytes. Upon the stimulation of Gs-coupled G protein-coupled ...
Evaluating onco-geriatric scores and medication risks to improve cancer care for older patients
(2020-03-19)
The cancer therapy of older patients is challenging, being more complex than the therapy of younger patients. Older cancer patients show a higher toxicity risk during therapy and drug-related problems are common. In order ...
Pharmacological reprogramming of macrophages through aptamiRs
(2020-03-05)
Nucleic acid-based molecules have certain advantages over conventional drugs or protein-based target approaches. Chemically synthetized nucleic acids-based molecules are known as aptamers. They are selected from a combinatorial ...
Funktionelle Untersuchungen des ABC-Transporters ABCG2
(2021-10-15)
Das Phänomen der Multidrug Resistance (MDR) stellt ein bedeutsames Problem bei der Behandlung von Tumoren mit Chemotherapeutika dar. Die ABC-Transporter ABCB1, ABCC1 und ABCG2 sind an der Entstehung der MDR beteiligt. ...
RIG-I agonists as effective anti-viral prophylaxis and treatment in a mouse model of severe SARS-CoV-2 infection
(2022-07-08)
The recent outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic highlights the need for novel prophylactic and therapeutic countermeasures against newly emerging viruses. Innate immune receptor agonists are considered to be a promising new ...
Contribution of SIGLEC-11 and SIGLEC-16 receptors to neuro-inflammation and neurodegeneration
(2023-02-14)
Brain aging is a multifactorial process including accumulation of aged lipids and proteins,
neuroinflammation and loss of neurons. SIGLEC-11 and SIGLEC-16 are paired opposite inhibitory- versus activatory-signaling ...
Analysis of the physiological response of perivascular adipose tissue during cold exposure
(2023-02-22)
Aortic valve disease (AVD) is common for people over 65 and its severity increases with age. Aortic aneurysm (AA) is the tenth cause of death for men above 55. Its prevalence was estimated to be up to 8.9% for men and up ...
Einfluss der Cyclin-abhängigen Kinase 5 auf die Expression des Programmed Cell Death Ligand 1 in murinen Pankreaskarzinomen im Vergleich verschiedener Analysemethoden
(2023-03-23)
Einleitung: Programmed Cell Death Ligand 1 (PD-L1) ist ein immuninhibitorisches Molekül, das für gewöhnlich von bestimmten Immunzellen oder dendritischen Zellen exprimiert wird. Auch verschiedene Tumoren ...
The role of CH25H in adipose tissue - a new potential target in anti-obesity therapy?
(2024-06-25)
Obesity associates with comorbidities as hypertension, cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes mellitus and therefore depicts an emerging health issue. On a molecular level, obesity is accompanied ......
Influence of antiviral RNA binding effector proteins on innate immune responses
(2024-08-06)
The efficient elimination of viruses is initiated by the recognition of the viral nucleic acid genome or replication intermediates through innate immune receptors. Several different receptors specifically detect double ......
