Phenolic Profile and Bioactive Prospects of Wild Annona Species From Angola

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Annona species (Annonaceae family) are valued for their nutritional and medicinal importance, especially in traditional medicine. This study investigated the phenolic profiles of the Angolan Annona muricata, Annona squamosa, and Annona senegalensis leaves, stem barks, and seeds hydroethanolic, infusion, and decoction extracts, also evaluating ...

Identification of Natural Isonitriles Through Ligation to an Azomethine Imine Probe

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
The azomethine imine (AMI)–isonitrile (NC) ligation allowed for the chemoselective detection of natural isonitriles in bacteria and fungi. The reactivity‐based screening establishes a new stereogenic center, thereby allowing for facile distinction between chiral and achiral isonitriles. The work also unraveled a unique reactivity of isonitriles bearing

NK cells as effectors of acquired immune responses: effector CD4+ T cell-dependent activation of NK cells following vaccination.

, 2010
We characterized vaccine-induced cellular responses to rabies virus in naive adult volunteers. Contrary to current paradigms, we observed potent and prolonged in vitro NK cell cytokine production and degranulation responses after restimulation of PBMCs ...

An evolutionary perspective on the kinome of malaria parasites [PDF]

, 2012
Malaria parasites belong to an ancient lineage that diverged very early from the main branch of eukaryotes. The approximately 90-member plasmodial kinome includes a majority of eukaryotic protein kinases that clearly cluster within the AGC, CMGC, TKL ...

Long‐Term Dermoscopic Evolution of Reticular Erythematous Mucinosis: Case Report

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reticular erythematous mucinosis is a rare dermatosis with a challenging diagnosis. To date, its dermoscopic features have not been well characterised in the literature. Only a limited number of case reports have described dermoscopic findings that may be indicative of the disorder, including the presence of dotted and linear vessels, as well ...

Plasmodium vivax malaria elimination: should innovative ideas from the past be revisited?

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2014
In the 1950s, the strategy of adding chloroquine to food salt as a prophylaxis against malaria was considered to be a successful tool. However, with the development of Plasmodium resistance in the Brazilian Amazon, this control strategy was abandoned ...
