Exploring lipid diversity and minimalism to define membrane requirements for synthetic cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Designing the lipid membrane of synthetic cells is a complex task, in which its various roles (among them solute transport, membrane protein support, and self‐replication) should all be integrated. In this review, we report the latest top‐down and bottom‐up advances and discuss compatibility and complexity issues of current engineering approaches ...

Acid phosphatase from stored Poa pratensis caryopses and its ability for binding to lectins

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
The effect of the storage period of Poa pratensis caryopses on acid phosphatase activity and on the ability of this enzyme to interact with lectins has been studied.

The Study of Serum Prostate Specific Antigen and Phosphatase Isoenzymes Activity as Diagnostic Parameters in Patients with Prostate Cancer in Nigeria [PDF]

, 2004
Serum activities of Acid Phosphatase (ACP) and Prostatic Acid Phosphatase (PAP) are still employed in most hospitals in Nigeria for the diagnosis of prostate cancer, because of lack of resources for prostate specific antigen (PSA) assay.

Activation of ADF/cofilin by phosphorylation-regulated Slingshot phosphatase is required for the meiotic spindle assembly in Xenopus laevis oocytes [PDF]

, 2013
We identify Xenopus ADF/cofilin (XAC) and its activator, Slingshot phosphatase (XSSH), as key regulators of actin dynamics essential for spindle microtubule assembly during Xenopus oocyte maturation.

Imeglimin attenuates liver fibrosis by inhibiting vesicular ATP release from hepatic stellate cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Imeglimin, at clinically relevant concentrations, inhibits vesicular ATP accumulation and release from hepatic stellate cells, thereby attenuating purinergic signaling and reducing fibrogenic activation. This mechanism reveals a newly identified antifibrotic action of imeglimin beyond glycemic control.

Acid phosphatase activity in maize (Zea mays La) seedlings treated with sodium humate

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
Sodium humate increased the acid phosphatase activity of fraction II of imbibing maize caryopses and suppressed the enzyme activity in fraction I. Removal of the testa changed the stimulating action of humate on the acid phosphatase activity of fraction ...

EVALUATION OF CHANGES IN THE LEVELS OF PROSTATE SPECIFIC ANTIGEN (PSA) AND PROSTATIC ACID PHOSPHATASE IN PATIENTS PRESENTING WITH URINARY RETENTION AND PROSTATE DISEASE [PDF]

The Medical Journal of Basrah University, 2009
Prostate specific antigen (PSA) has established itself as the most useful marker for adenocarcinoma of the prostate (ADCA) adenocarcinoma of the prostate and in the recent years has almost replaced the total acid phosphatase and prostatic acid ...

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Changes of Available Phosphorus and phosphatase activity in the rhizosphere of some field and vegetation crops in the fast growth stage

Journal of Applied Sciences and Environmental Management, 2010
A large proportion of P is found in organic forms. Phosphatase, plays an essential role in the mineralization of organic phosphorus. Agronomy species can affect phosphatase activity in rhizosphere.
