Impaired nutrient signaling and body weight control in a Na⁺ neutral amino acid cotransporter (Slc6a19)-deficient mouse [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Amino acid uptake in the intestine and kidney is mediated by a variety of amino acid transporters. To understand the role of epithelial neutral amino acid uptake in whole body homeostasis, we analyzed mice lacking the apical broad-spectrum neutral (0 ...

Function‐driven design of a surrogate interleukin‐2 receptor ligand

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Interleukin (IL)‐2 signaling can be achieved and precisely fine‐tuned through the affinity, distance, and orientation of the heterodimeric receptors with their ligands. We designed a biased IL‐2 surrogate ligand that selectively promotes effector T and natural killer cell activation and differentiation. Interleukin (IL) receptors play a pivotal role in

Amino and fatty acids composition of olive stones for the discrimination of 'Olea europaea' subsp. 'europaea' varieties

open access: yesMediterranean Botany, 2020
Few studies have reported the relationship between wild (Olea europaea L. subsp. europaea var. sylvestris) and cultivated (Olea europaea L. subsp. europaea var. europaea) olive trees by using diverse markers.

Meeting the protein and amino acid needs of swine (1982) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1982
All pigs require protein, which consists of amino acids. Amino acids are used for maintenance, growth, gestation, and lactation. Pigs actually do not have a protein requirement, but quality protein provides the amino acids which are required.

Metabolic changes in summer active and anuric hibernating free-ranging brown bears (ursus arctos) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The brown bear (Ursus arctos) hibernates for 5 to 6 months each winter and during this time ingests no food or water and remains anuric and inactive.

Mechanisms of parasite‐mediated disruption of brain vessels

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Parasites can affect the blood vessels of the brain, often causing serious neurological problems. This review explains how different parasites interact with and disrupt these vessels, what this means for brain health, and why these processes matter. Understanding these mechanisms may help us develop better ways to prevent or treat brain infections in ...

Target of Rapamycin Drives Unequal Responses to Essential Amino Acid Depletion for Egg Laying in Drosophila Melanogaster

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Nutrition shapes a broad range of life-history traits, ultimately impacting animal fitness. A key fitness-related trait, female fecundity is well known to change as a function of diet. In particular, the availability of dietary protein is one of the main

Platelet Amino Acid Levels in Essential Thrombocytosis [PDF]

open access: yesBlood, 1966
Abstract Studies on the platelets from three patients with essential thrombocytosis were presented. The intraplatelet free amino acid levels were elevated and the pseudo-hyperkalemic phenomenon was present. In one subject the pseudohyperkalemic phenomenon was reversed after a therapeutic remission, but the elevation of amino acids ...

Multiple ETS family transcription factors bind mutant p53 via distinct interaction regions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mutant p53 gain‐of‐function is thought to be mediated by interaction with other transcription factors. We identify multiple ETS transcription factors that can bind mutant p53 and found that this interaction can be promoted by a PXXPP motif. ETS proteins that strongly bound mutant p53 were upregulated in ovarian cancer compared to ETS proteins that ...

Amino acid profile and protein quality of starter cultures fermented African Yam bean (Sphenostylis sternocarp) seed condiment

open access: yesCroatian Journal of Food Science and Technology, 2023
African yam bean seeds condiment is an unpopular nutritive local food seasoning compared to Iru and is mostly produced by natural fermentation. Production with a defined starter culture will give a novel functional condiment with enhanced nutritive ...
