Postprandial hyperglycemia (PPH) and intermittent hypoxia related to the sleep apnea syndrome are important predictors of cardiovascular disease. We investigated the effects of intermittent hypoxia on pathological changes in the left ventricular (LV) myocardium caused by PPH in lean mice and
A 13-year-old boy with juvenile-onset acid alpha glucosidase deficiency was reported. Proximal muscle weakness including respiratory muscles and scoliosis progressed since nine year of age. He developed nocturnal dyspnea and daytime somnolence at age 13. His arterial blood gas analysis showed
The glucose analogue 1-deoxynojirimycin (dNOJ) and some of its N-substituted derivatives have recently been described as potent inhibitors of the hepatic glycogenolysis induced by glucagon, Ca2+ ionophores or anoxia. The inhibition increased with time, in spite of a persistently high level of
This work aimed to assess seminal alpha-1,4-glucosidase activity in infertile oligoasthenozoospermic men associated with and without scrotal varicocele. Eighty men were investigated. They were divided into three groups: group 1 (n = 20), fertile normozoospermic men; group 2 (n = 30),
Waterlogging is one of the main abiotic stresses that limit wheat production. Quantitative proteomics analysis has been applied in the study of crop abiotic stress as an effective way in recent years (e.g. salt stress, drought stress, heat stress and waterlogging stress). However, only An infant presented with multifocal myoclonus and cyanotic hypoxemia immediately after birth, and severe feeding problems, a protein-losing enteropathy, massive ascites and grand-mal epilepsy marked his rapid downhill course, with death at 17 weeks. At 2 weeks, brain MRI revealed grey matter
Temporal changes in a- and b-glucosidase activities, dissolved organic matter content, and bacterial biomass were studied in the superficial sediment layer of a eutrophic lake during the period of anoxia. The mean a- and b-glucosidase activities were 30.7 +/- 11.0 and 15.1 +/- 6.2 nmol h-1 g-1 of
Effects of biogenic amines--noradrenaline and serotonin--on phosphorylase, acid alpha-glucosidase (gamma-amilase), glycogen synthetase as well as on content of glycogen in rat liver tissue, heart and skeletal muscles were studied in vivo. Administration of noradrenaline and serotonin led to
Protein accumulation and protein synthesis were investigated during anaerobic stress and heat shock in maize seedlings (Zea mays L.). Antibodies against alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and cytosolic glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPC) were used to investigate the expression of the genes
Radiation dermatitis is observed in 95% of breast cancer patients receiving radiotherapy. The aim of this study was to explore the correlation between protein expression in tumor cells and the risk of developing radiation dermatitis.
Breast cancer patients receiving postoperative radiotherapy were
A rare case of pulmonary hypertension due to glycogen storage disease type II (Pompe's disease) was reported. An 18-year-old girl was admitted to Kawasaki Medical School Hospital because of cyanosis, dyspnea on exertion and amenorrhea. She was 149 cm in height and 29 kg in body weight. Clinical
Gaucher's disease is a not exceptional lysosomial disease in Tunisia. Type 1 is by far the most common one. Pulmonary involvement is considered to be rare in type 1 Gaucher's disease. Pulmonary hypertension, infiltration of the lungs with Gaucher cells, and severe hypoxemia due to intrapulmonary
Hydroxyproline-containing proteins (other than collagens) are rare and difficult to identify. Only 14 such proteins have been found in the human proteome by biochemical methods, despite the fact that the list includes examples of biological importance such as Hypoxia-inducible factor and the 40S
An adequate carbohydrate supply contributes to the survival of seeds under conditions of limited oxygen availability. The amount of soluble, readily fermentable carbohydrates in dry cereal seeds is usually very limited, with starch representing the main storage compound. Starch breakdown during the
The prevalence of diabetes mellitus in cirrhotic patients is much higher than that in the general population. Two types of diabetes are usually seen in patients with cirrhosis: type 2 diabetes mellitus and hepatogenous diabetes (HD). The HD is an acquired condition which is believed to be caused by
