The transcription factor encoded by the mi locus (MITF) is a transcription factor of the basic-helix-loop-helix zipper protein family. Mice of mi/mi genotype express a normal amount of abnormal MITF, whereas mice of tg/tg genotype do not express any MITFs due to the transgene insertional mutation.
Anti-inflammatory actions of proteases, bromelain (BR), trypsin (TR) and their mixed preparation (KT) were studied mainly in rabbits using various experimental test methods. Inhibitory action of edema formation induced by carrageenin was observed to be dose dependent with oral administrations of KT.
The optimization of physiochemical parameters for alkaline protease production using Bacillus licheniformis NCIM 2042 were carried out by Plackett-Burman design and response surface methodology (RSM). The model was validated experimentally and the maximum protease production was found 315.28 U using
Different classes of protease inhibitors and substrates were tested for their effect on the ability of human lymphocytes to mediate antibody-dependent cytotoxicity (Ab CMC). All the inhibitors tested (serine esterase inhibitors, chloromethyl ketone derivatives of tosyl-amino acids, synthetic
Sporulating cells of Bacillus licheniformis excrete three seryl proteases that are of similar size, 28,000 daltons, but of different charge at pH 6. The peptide antibiotic bactracin is released from the cells at the same time and exists, in part, as a bacitracin-protease complex that is stable
There is evidence to support a relationship between oxidative stress and protease release in "ischemia-reperfusion damage." We have proposed that aprotinin may exert an antioxidant effect. A double blind clinical trial was performed with a control (G-1) and treated (G-2) groups, both submitted to
Affinity tags such as polyhistidine greatly facilitate recombinant protein production. The solubility of integral membrane proteins is maintained by the formation of protein-detergent complexes (PDCs), with detergent present at concentration above its critical micelle concentration (CMC). Removal of
BACKGROUND
Aprotinin has been used in cardiosurgery as a hemostatic agent. Considering the implication of oxygen reactive species and proteases in the pathogenesis of Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome, we hypothesized that aprotinin may exert an antioxidant effect. This work was designed to
OBJECTIVE
To observe myocardial cathepsin (Cat) S expression and activity in hypertensive heart failure rats.
METHODS
The expression and activity of Cat S were determined in the left ventricular (LV) myocardium (LVM) of Dahl salt-sensitive rats fed either a high-salt (HS, 8%) or low-salt (LS, 0, 3%,
In human NK cells and CTL it has been shown that release of lytic molecules is, at least in part, responsible for the lysis of target cells (TC). Of the various types of molecules thought to be involved in cell-mediated cytotoxicity (CMC), perforin and the serine proteases (granzymes A and B) are
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effects of soybean isoflavones on receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGEs) mediated signal transduction in the hippocampus of rats with Alzheimer's disease (AD).
METHODS
AD rat model was established by bilateral hippocampus injection of amyloid beta25-35
Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is the most common nutritional deficiency worldwide. This deficiency could be solved by preparing stable, edible, and absorbable iron food ingredients using environmentally friendly methods. This study investigated enzymatic hydrolysis and microencapsulation process of
Bacillus species 11089 and alkalophilic Bacillus species 11203 were both capable of growth in continuous culture on macromolecular substrates, starch, soybean flour, casein, pectin, polypectate, polygalacturonate and carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) when these were used as the carbon-energy source in a
A high demand exists for gluten free and hypoimmunogenic products from gluten sensitive population. The present study focuses on the development of hypoimmunogenic muffins using a combination of the blend (CB) consisting of modified (protease treated) Whole Wheat Flour (WWF) and Pearl Millet Flour
Cakile maritima (Brassicaceae) is a halophyte that thrives on dunes along Mediterranean seashores, with high tolerance to salty and dry environments. We have previously shown that there is great morphological and physiological diversity between ecotypes. We investigated the expression of cysteine
