A 35-year-old man suffered from myalgia and joint pain on walking for 5 months. Physical and neurological examinations revealed dermal sclerosis, skin swelling, redness of forearms, Raynaud's phenomenon, joint pain, myalgia and muscle weakness. Eosinophilia was not found and serum creatine kinase
Aldolase activity with the two substrates fructose-1-phosphate and fructose-1,6-diphosphate was measured in the homogenate of small intestinal biopsy specimens from children with different malabsorptive diseases (celiac disease, cow's milk protein intolerance, infectious diarrhea, giardiasis, and
4-Hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) is a reactive aldehyde species generated endogenously from the nonenzymatic oxidation of n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids under physiological conditions. We have reported that intense white light exposure increases 4-HNE-protein modification in the retina prior to the onset
Changes in serum levels of tumor-specific fructose 1,6-diphosphate (FDP) aldolase and nontumor-specific fructose 1-phosphate (F1P) aldolase activities were analyzed in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) to detect the damage of tumorous and nontumorous hepatic cells after percutaneous
The accumulation of formaldehyde and the resulting deterioration of seafood products during frozen storage are primarily caused by the enzymatic activity of trimethylamine oxide aldolase (TMAOase). A screening of muscle samples from 24 species showed TMAOase activity in only the nine gadiform
Membrane-mediated excessive intracellular calcium accumulation (EICA) is a fundamental pathogenetic event associated with chronic muscle degeneration in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), and in animals with hereditary muscular dystrophy (HMD). Because of potential Ca(2+)-channel
C-reactive protein (CRP), creatine kinase-muscle (CK-MM) and aldolase A (AldoA) levels are predicted to be realistic biomarkers of osteoarthritic disorders (OADs). The objective of the study was to evaluate the levels of CRP, CK-MM, and AldoA and determine their correlations with risk Focal myositis is a very rare form of inflammatory myopathy, with unknown etiology. We describe a 44-year-old previously healthy man who noticed a painless swelling on his left forearm, following trauma over the left cubital fossa. The swelling grew progressively over 2 years. He had otherwise no
Daily administration of 2g/kg/day di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) to immature rats was found to cause testicular atrophy and reduce zinc concentration. Specific activities of testicular enzymes associated with postmeiotic spermatogenic cells, such as lactate dehydrogenase isozyme-X, hyaluronidase
The results of various biochemical examinations in 14 patients with cirrhosis (6 males and 8 females) with muscle atrophy at the thenar and hypothenar eminence (muscle atrophy group; mAG) were compared with those in 13 patients (8 males and 5 females) with cirrhosis without muscle atrophy at these
Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase from Drosophila melanogaster has been crystallized from polyethylene glycol 6000 by vapor diffusion technique against buffered polyethylene glycol solutions at 2-4 degrees C. The insect enzyme crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, heretofore unknown for
Having previously determined the complete amino acid sequence of 2-keto-4-hydroxyglutarate aldolase from Escherichia coli (C. J. Vlahos and E. E. Dekker, J. Biol. Chem. 263:11683-11691, 1988), we amplified the gene that codes for this enzyme by the polymerase chain reaction using synthetic
