Cloning And Characterization Of An Unusual Polyhydroxyalkanoate Acid Synthase (phaC) Gene From A Chromobacterium Sp. Isolated Locally [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Chromobacterium sp. is a bacterium capable of producing polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA). The Chromobacterium sp. PHA synthase (PhaC) is able to polymerize shortchain- length PHA monomers, such as 3-hydroxybutyrate and 3-hydroxyvalerate. Chromobacterium sp.

Treatment of pediatric epilepsy

open access: yesPediatric Investigation, EarlyView.
Anti‐seizure medications are the first‐line treatment for the vast majority of children with epilepsy, with the advantages of non‐invasive wide adaptability. Surgery is the main treatment for drug‐resistant epilepsy and lesion‐related epilepsy, which can cure some cases of epilepsy in children. A ketogenic diet is often an add‐on therapy.

The effect of gamma radiation on mechanical properties of biodegradable polymers poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) and poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate)

open access: yesMaterials Research, 2013
Brazilian poly(3-hydroxybutyrate), P(3-HB), and its copolymer, poly (3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate), P(3-HB-co-3-HV) were irradiated with gamma radiation (60Co) at room temperature and in the presence of oxygen. The viscosity-average molar mass (

Elevated beta‐hydroxybutyrate within a pediatric population and its associated pathology: A retrospective case series

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Elevated beta‐hydroxybutyrate (BHB) is a marker for ketoacidosis. Post‐mortem values for the diagnosis of fatal ketoacidosis and the associated clinical and histologic findings are limited in the pediatric population. A retrospective case series of pediatric autopsy records and histology slides was conducted.

High‐Altitude Adaptation of Frogs (Case Study: Nanorana parkeri): From Physiological Phenotypes to AltitudeOmics

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
High altitudes are challenging for the animals that inhabit these environments. The Xizang plateau frog (Nanorana parkeri) survives in high‐altitude environments through a synergistic strategy of metabolic remodeling and protein expression adjustment to optimize energy efficiency and enhance cellular protection.

Lactate inhibits glucose‐induced zigzag motility and enhances linear motility in bull spermatozoa by suppressing glycolysis

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Energy metabolism and substrate balance are critical determinants of sperm motility and fertility. Linear motility is necessary for sperm forward movement, whereas hyperactivated motility is a prerequisite for fertilization. The preference of metabolic pathways depends on substrate availability which controls sperm motility. However,

A novel glucose beta‐hydroxybutyrate combination improves hypoglycaemia recovery and patient‐reported outcomes in type 1 diabetes

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Hypoglycaemia remains a major barrier to optimal diabetes management. Current treatments based on simple sugars have limitations, including rapid glucose fluctuations and persistent neuroglycopenic symptoms. We investigated FLO23011, a novel multi‐substrate energy formulation containing glucose and beta‐hydroxybutyrate, as a superior ...

Early versus late initiation of long‐acting insulin in paediatric and adult diabetic ketoacidosis: A systematic review and meta‐analysis of randomised control trials

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a serious complication of diabetes, requiring intravenous (IV) insulin until resolution and subsequent transition to subcutaneous insulin. Currently, clinical guidelines vary regarding the timing of long‐acting subcutaneous insulin initiation, with some advocating early administration during IV insulin ...
