Circular dichroism spectroscopic detection of ligand binding induced subdomain IB specific structural adjustment of human serum albumin [PDF]

, 2013
This work demonstrates for the first time that binding of various compounds within subdomain IB of human serum albumin (HSA) provokes characteristic changes in the near-UV circular dichroism (CD) spectrum of the protein.

Epimerization of chenodeoxycholic acid to ursodeoxycholic acid by human intestinal lecithinase-lipase-negative Clostridia.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1981
Six strains of lecithinase-lipase-negative Clostridia, isolated from human feces, were capable of oxidizing chenodeoxycholic acid to 3 alpha-hydroxy-7 keto-5 beta-cholanoic acid and of epimerizing it to ursodeoxycholic acid.

Weight Loss‐Associated Remodeling of Adipose Tissue Immunometabolism

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Obesity is a multifactorial condition characterized by excessive adiposity and systemic chronic low‐grade inflammation. Recent literature reflects a growing appreciation for the complex interplay between metabolism and the immune system in the pathogenesis of obesity‐related health conditions.

Impacts of Vincristine and Prednisolone Chemotherapy on the Canine Gut Microbiota in Dogs Undergoing Treatment for Lymphoma

Veterinary and Comparative Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chemotherapy can have adverse gastrointestinal effects in dogs and people. The objective of this study was to assess the impact of vincristine and prednisolone/prednisone, as part of a CHOP chemotherapy [cyclophosphamide, hydroxydaunorubicin, oncovin (vincristine) and prednisolone/prednisone] protocol, on gastrointestinal dysbiosis in dogs ...

Downregulation of host tryptophan-aspartate containing coat (TACO) gene restricts the entry and survival of Leishmania donovani in human macrophage model [PDF]

, 2015
Leishmania are obligate intracellular protozoan parasites of mammalian hosts. Promastigotes of Leishmania are internalized by macrophages and transformed into amastigotes in phagosomes, and replicate in phagolysosomes.

Synthesis of 11, 12-2H2- and 11, 12-3H2-labeled chenodeoxycholic and lithocholic acids

Journal of Lipid Research, 1976
Deuterium- and tritium-labeled chenodeoxycholic acid and lithocholic were prepared by catalytic reduction of their respective Δ11 derivatives. Structures of the intermediates and their isotopic purity were verified by chemical ionization and electron ...

The mood stabilizers lithium and valproate disrupt hepatic and intestinal farnesoid X receptor signalling and increase bile synthesis in the rat

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The mood stabilizers lithium and valproate are psychotropic medications widely used in clinical practice. Despite their proven benefits, many individuals stop their treatment due to the adverse effects. Chronic diarrhoea is a common reason for discontinuation of these drugs; however, the underlying mechanisms are unknown.

ACOX2 deficiency: A disorder of bile acid synthesis with transaminase elevation, liver fibrosis, ataxia, and cognitive impairment [PDF]

, 2016
Acyl CoA Oxidase 2 (ACOX2) encodes branched-chain acyl-CoA oxidase, a peroxisomal enzyme believed to be involved in the metabolism of branched-chain fatty acids and bile acid intermediates. Deficiency of this enzyme has not been described previously.
