Liver X receptor-alpha (LXRα) acts as a double-edged sword in different biological situations. Given the elusive role of LXRα in hepatocyte viability, this study investigated whether LXRα protects hepatocytes from injurious stimuli and the underlying basis. LXRα activation prevented hepatocyte
The effects of cannabinoid receptor agonists on the non-adrenergic non-cholinergic (NANC) inhibitory responses to electrical field stimulation in guinea-pig trachea were assessed. R-(+)-[2,3-dihydro-5-methyl-3-[(morpholilinyl) methyl]pyrrolo [1,2,3-de]-1,4-benzoxazin-6-yl]-(1-naphthalenyl)methanone
As previously reported by this laboratory, an endogenous factor capable of inhibiting the specific binding of the radiolabeled cannabinoid agonist [3H]CP-55940 to its receptor can be released from nerve terminals in response to an influx of Ca++ induced by an ionophore (Evans et al., 1992). In the
