Peptide modulators of alpha-glucosidase
AIMS/INTRODUCTION Acute glucose fluctuations during the postprandial period pose great risk for cardiovascular complications and thus represent an important therapeutic approach in type 2 diabetes. In the present study, screening of peptide libraries was used to select peptides with an affinity towards mammalian intestinal alpha-glucosidase as potential leads in antidiabetic agent development. ...
متن کاملSleep promoting effects of BR-16A: interaction with GABAergic modulators
The aim of the present study was to investigate the sleep promoting effect of BR-16A, a polyherbal formulation along with GABAergic drugs. Pentobarbitone-induced hypnosis test was used as an animal model to explore its role in sleep. Pentobarbitone produces quick the sleep latency (onset) and prolongation of total sleep time (duration). Seep latency and total sleep time were used as parameters ...
متن کاملIn vitro selection of state-specific peptide modulators of G protein signaling using mRNA display.
The G protein regulatory (GPR) motif is a approximately 20-residue conserved domain that acts as a guanine dissociation inhibitor (GDI) for G(i/o)(alpha) subunits. Here, we describe the isolation of peptides derived from a GPR consensus sequence using mRNA display selection libraries. Biotinylated G(i)(alpha)(1), modified at either the N or C terminus, serves as a high-affinity binding target f...
متن کاملAntibacterial activity of pepducins, allosterical modulators of formyl peptide receptor signaling.
Pepducins containing a fatty acid linked to an amino acid sequence derived from cytosolic parts of a G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) constitute a new group of lipopeptide tools in GPCR studies. Pepducins corresponding to the third intracellular loop of formyl peptide receptor 2 (FPR2) activate human neutrophils, and we show here that, in addition, these allosteric modulators of receptor activ...
