Abstract:
Activation of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI-3K) is essential for insulin-stimulated translocation of GLUT4 and glucose transport in insulin target tissues. A novel p110γ PI-3K was reported to be activated by Gi-coupled receptors via Gβγ subunits. We asked whether the stimulation of Gi-coupled receptors would trigger GLUT4 translocation and glucose uptake by the activation of Gβγ-dependent p110γ PI-3K. We find that this translocation and glucose uptake can be induced by the ligand stimulation of Gi-coupled α2A adrenergic receptor and fMet-Leu-Phe receptor in cells stably expressing these recept

This study aimed to compare the effects of SSCs and bands on Gingival Index (GI), Plaque Index (PI), and Probing Pocket Depth (PPD) over 6 months. Methodology: Sixty children aged 6–12 years were divided into two groups: SSCs (n = 30) and bands (n = 30). Clinical parameters were recorded at baseline, 1, 3, and 6 months.

A clear understanding of the role of PI (phosphoinositide) 3-kinases in supporting the haemostatic function of platelets has been slow to evolve. In fact, insight into the roles of individual PI 3-kinase isoforms in platelet function remains rudimentary. However, based on in vitro studies using wortmannin and LY294002, there is evidence for an important role for PI 3-kinases in regulating a broad range of functional platelet responses, including primary platelet adhesion, cytoskeletal remodelling and platelet aggregation. One of the critical platelet responses involves affinity regulation of t
