Selection of Arginine-Rich Anti-Gold Antibodies Engineered for Plasmonic Colloid Self-Assembly [PDF]
Antibodies are affinity proteins with a wide spectrum of applications in analytical and therapeutic biology. Proteins showing specific recognition for a chosen molecular target can be isolated and their encoding sequence identified in vitro from a large and diverse library by phage display selection. In this work, we show that this standard biochemical

The paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus: a key node in the control of behavioural states
Abstract figure legend The paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of the hypothalamus contains many different populations of neurons. Together, these neurons control numerous physiological functions and homeostatic behaviours. Created in BioRender. Iremonger, K.

Reasons underlying certain tendencies in the data on the frequency of codon usage [PDF]
The tendencies described in this work were revealed in the course of examination of adenine and uracil distribution in the mRNA encoding sequence. The study also discusses the usage of codons occupied by the amino acid arginine in the table of the universal genetic code.

Personalized Metabolic Analysis of Diseases [PDF]
The metabolic wiring of patient cells is altered drastically in many diseases, including cancer. Understanding the nature of such changes may pave the way for new therapeutic opportunities, as well as the development of personalized treatment strategies for patients.

The anterior piriform cortex (APC) exhibits distinct neural firings and calcium transients in response to familiar and novel mice, with a more robust response to the novel one. Selectively inhibiting APC pyramidal neurons disrupt social novelty recognition without impairing basic odor discrimination.

Association of Anaesthetists guidelines: the use of blood components and their alternatives
Summary Background The administration of blood components and their alternatives can be lifesaving. Anaemia, bleeding and transfusion are all associated with poor peri‐operative outcomes. Considerable changes in the approaches to optimal use of blood components and their alternatives, driven by the findings of large randomised controlled trials and ...

Molecular dynamics studies of interactions between Arg9(nona-arginine) and a DOPC/DOPG(4:1) membrane [PDF]
It has been known that the uptake mechanisms of cell-penetrating peptides(CPPs) depend on the experimental conditions such as concentration of peptides, lipid composition, temperature, etc. In this study we investigate the temperature dependence of the penetration of Arg9s into a DOPC/DOPG(4:1) membrane using molecular dynamics(MD) simulations at two ...

Nausea: Current knowledge of mechanisms, measurement and clinical impact [PDF]
Nausea is a subjective sensation, which often acts as a signal that emesis is imminent. It is a widespread problem that occurs as a clinical sign of disease or as an adverse effect of a drug therapy or surgical procedure.

Background and Purpose Alterations in tryptophan‐kynurenine (TRP‐KYN) pathway are implicated in major depressive disorder (MDD). α7 nicotinic acetylcholine (α7nACh) receptor regulates the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis. We have shown that deficiency of kynurenine 3‐monooxygenase (KMO) induces depression‐like behaviour via kynurenic acid ...
