Vitamin C exists in two major forms. The charged form, ascorbic acid (AA), is taken up into cells via sodium-dependent facilitated transport. The uncharged form, dehydroascorbate (DHA), enters cells via glucose transporters (GLUT) and is then converted back to AA within these cells. Cell types such
Through a ligand-based pharmacophore model (S)-proline based compounds were identified as potent cannabinoid receptor 2 (CB2) agonists with high selectivity over the cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1). Structure-activity relationship investigations for this compound class lead to oxo-proline compounds 21
Diabetic-induced peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is a highly complex and frequent diabetic late complication, which is manifested by prolonged hyperglycemia. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the pathophysiology of nerve damage and sensory loss remain largely unclear. Recently, alteration in
Neuronal cytoskeletal proteins such as neurofilaments (NFs) and tau are aberrantly and hyperphosphorylated in neurodegeneration. Under normal physiological conditions, NFs are synthesized in the cell bodies and phosphorylated and transported in the axonal compartment. However, under
