Intracellular Signalling Through FSH Receptor and Follicle Stimulating Hormone
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0000333SignalingIn the ovary, the FSH receptor is necessary for follicular development and is expressed on the granulosa cells.
Intracellular Signalling Through LHCGR Receptor and Luteinizing Hormone/Choriogonadotropin
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0000338SignalingLHCGRs are found in the ovary, testis, and many extragonadal tissues.In the ovary, the LHCG receptor is necessary for follicular maturation and ovulation, as well as luteal function. … In the male the LHCGR has been identified on the Leydig cells that are critical for testosterone production, and support spermatogenesis.
Metabolism and Physiological Effects of N-Acetyl-3-Methylhistidine
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0126795MetabolicN-Acetyl-3-methylhistidine, an N-acetyl-L-amino acid, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as histidine and derivatives. … N-Acetyl-3-methylhistidine is an acetylated derivative of 3-methylhistidine and a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa).
Metabolism and Physiological Effects of N-alpha-Acetyl-L-arginine
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0125530MetabolicArginnosuccinate is synthesized from citrulline and aspartic acid by the enzyme argininosuccinate synthase. That is catalyzed by argininosuccinate lyase to produce arginine and fumaric acid. … In the blood it works as a uremic toxin to cause kidney damage, cardiovascular disease and neurological deficits.

smpdb.ca/view/SMP0126347Drug actionsuch as intrathecal morphine and systemic analgesics. … This causes downstream nociceptive neuronal activity and pain perception. Substance P and CGRP both also induce inflammation, further exasperating chronic pain.
Icosapent Prostaglandin G/H synthase 1 and 2 anti-inflammatory Action Pathway
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0126557Drug actionThis molecule also inhibits the arachidonic acid conversion into the thromboxane-2 and prostaglandin-2 families because it inhibits the prostaglandin G/H synthase 1 and 2 (COX-1 and COX-2). … Then icosapent shows anti-atherogenic and anti-thrombotic effects in cells. EPA serves as a substrate for Prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 1 and 2.
Fish oil Prostaglandin G/H synthase 1 and 2 anti-inflammatory Action Pathway
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0126563Drug actionEPA and DHA do competition with arachidonic acids for both COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes. … These are responsible for the conversion of arachidonic acid (an omega-6 fatty acid) into prostaglandins and thromboxanes, which are important mediators of inflammation and pain.
Selenoamino Acid Metabolism
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0000029MetabolicThese 2 products combine to produce a cardiolipin and an ethanolamine. The L-1 phosphatidyl-glycerol can also interact with cardiolipin synthase resulting in a glycerol and a cardiolipin. … The major phospholipids of P. aeruginosa are phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, and cardiolipin.
Enzymes: Selenide, water dikinase 2Apoptosis Signaling
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0537035SignalingThe translocation of various proteins such as BAX, BAK1, and Cytochrome c from the cytosol or mitochondria to the nucleus and other cellular compartments orchestrates the timing and execution of the apoptotic … Moreover, the anti-apoptotic proteins Bcl-2 and Bcl-XL normally inhibit BAX and BAK1, preventing mitochondrial membrane permeabilization.
Enzymes: Phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate-induced protein 1, CASP8 and FADD-like apoptosis regulatorPeginterferon alfa-2a Action Pathway
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0125981Drug actionPeginterferon alfa-2a activate interferon alpha receptors 1 and 2 (IFNAR1 and IFNAR2) which are associated with tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) and JAK1 respectively. … They act through IKKa and IKKb to drive NFKB induction of genes associated with survival signals, antigen processing and presentation, and proliferation.
