To investigate the protective effect of agmatine (AGM) against peritoneal inflammatory response and neutrophil (PMN) infiltration induced by zymosan (ZYM) in mice.
Thirty-six adult male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into sham group, model group, and AGM treatment group. Peritonitis model was
Caries lesions develop when acid production from bacterial metabolism of dietary carbohydrates outweighs the various mechanisms that promote pH homeostasis, including bacterial alkali production. Therapies that provide arginine as a substrate for alkali production in supragingival oral biofilms have
Actively migrating tumour cells possess the proteolytic enzyme guanidinobenzoatase (GB) in an uninhibited form. This enzyme has been used as a target for the delivery of adriamycin to invasive tumour cells in frozen sections. An adriamycin-agmatine complex has been prepared which act as a
The structure and function of a cadaverine-lysine antiporter CadB and a putrescine-ornithine antiporter PotE in Escherichia coli were evaluated using model structures based on the crystal structure of AdiC, an agmatine-arginine antiporter, and the activities of various CadB and PotE mutants. The
Tryptophan is hydrophobic, bulky, and the rarest amino acid found in nutrients. Accordingly, the import machinery can be specialized evolutionarily. Our previous study in Saccharomyces cerevisiae demonstrated that tryptophan import by the high-affinity tryptophan permease Tat2 is accompanied by a
As one of the most important cariogenic pathogens, Streptococcus mutans has strong abilities to form biofilms, produce acid and tolerate acid. In present study, we found that theaflavin-3,3'-digallate (TF3) had an inhibitory effect on S. mutans UA159 in vitro. Visualized by
