Diatom triacylglycerol metabolism: from carbon fixation to lipid droplet degradation
ABSTRACT Diatoms are a prominent microalgae family that has attracted interest for its production of molecules of biotechnological interest. Their fatty acid profile is rich in health‐beneficial omega‐3 eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). Furthermore, under nutrient‐deprived conditions, many diatom species, notably Phaeodactylum tricornutum, Thalassiosira ...

Paraoxonase 1 gene polymorphism and enzymatic activity as a prognostic marker in cases of poisoning by cholinesterase inhibitor pesticides among Egyptians [PDF]
Paraoxonase1 (PON1) is a high-density lipoprotein associated A-esterase capable of hydrolysing activated metabolites (oxons) of several pesticides as organophosphorous, including chlorpyrifos, diazinon as well as carbamates.

ABSTRACT Posttraumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) is a common sequela to anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury in humans and dogs. Identification of conserved targets between species may hasten biomarker identification and therapeutic development. To identify differentially regulated synovial fluid (SF) proteins in ACL injury, SF samples were collected ...

Paraoxonase and arylesterase activities in patients with preeclampsia.
Paraoxonase is a high density lipoprotein-associated anti-oxidant enzyme. The aim of this study was to investigate the serum paraoxonase and arylesterase activities and associations between these enzymes and lipid hydroperoxide (LOOH) in preeclamptic patients.The study included 47 preeclamptic (25 severe and 22 mild preeclampsia cases) and 20 ...

Purification of Bovine Plasma Arylesterase
Abstract Bovine plasma arylesterase was purified by: 1) precipitation between 50 and 75% saturation with (NH 4 ) 2 SO 4 at 0C, 2) chromatography of a solution of the precipitate on Sephadex G-200, 3) rechromatography of the pooled enzyme fractions on DEAE-cellulose at pH 7.8, and 4) removal of a precipitate formed when the pooled fractions from (3 ...
