A new short-term toxicity assay using
Background Most currently available short-term toxicity assays are based on bacterial cells. Therefore there is a need for novel eukaryotic microbial bioassays that will be relevant to higher eukaryotes such as animals and plants.

Coelenterazine is the most common imidazopyrazinone‐based luciferin in marine organisms. The electrochemical main peaks of coelenterazine are observed at approximately around 0.12 and 0.62 Vs in the cyclic voltammetry curve. Theoretical analysis suggests that coelenterazine is converted to the coelenteramide around 0.12 V, and the coelenteramide is ...

Different NaCl-induced calcium signatures in the Arabidopsis thaliana ecotypes Col-0 and C24.
A common feature of stress signalling pathways are alterations in the concentration of cytosolic free calcium ([Ca2+]cyt), which allow the specific and rapid transmission of stress signals through a plant after exposure to a stress, such as salinity ...

Abstract Variants in the CNGB3 gene, encoding the B3‐subunit of the cone photoreceptor cyclic nucleotide gated channel, are a major cause of autosomal recessive achromatopsia, a rare inherited retinal disease. The mutation spectrum of achromatopsia‐associated CNGB3 variants comprises all types of mutations, including those that are straightforward to ...

Effects of Adalimumab on Mitochondria of Psoriatic Mesenchymal Stem Cells
ABSTRACT Psoriasis is a systemic immune‐mediated disorder involving multiple signalling pathways. Recent attempts to treat psoriasis involve monoclonal antibodies that block different inflammatory pathways. The monoclonal antibody Adalimumab (ADM) is one of the biologics that block the inflammatory cascade of TNF‐alpha.

Recombinant apoaequorin expressed in the periplasmic space of Escherichia coli cells was regenerated into aequorin and extracted from the cells, simultaneously, using a buffer that contained coelenterazine. Due to the mild extraction conditions, the impurities in the extract were minimal.
