Chitinase expression in parotid glands of non-obese diabetic mice

, 2012
OBJECTIVE: This investigation was a basal study that used a mouse model of xerostomia to identify protein biomarkers of xerostomia in saliva. We identified genes expressed differently in parotid glands from non-obese diabetic mice with diabetes and ...

Adjusting Our Thinking About Feeding Animals: Fiber as the Metric for Mimicking Natural Diets

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.
A typical effect of the change of an animal group to a diet higher in fiber: juveniles keep growing, animals of ideal body weight maintain their weight, and obese individuals lose weight. ABSTRACT Free‐ranging animals often ingest markedly different diets than their counterparts under human care, whether companion animals, production animals, or zoo ...

TcALS knockdown accelerates metamorphosis via insulin signaling in Tribolium castaneum

Insect Science, EarlyView.
RNAi silencing of TcALS accelerates larva‐to‐pupa metamorphosis in Tribolium castaneum. Abstract Insect metamorphosis is an evolutionary adaptation precisely regulated by nutritional and hormonal cues. The red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum, a major stored‐product pest, serves as an excellent model for studying this process.

Screening of high chitinase-producing stains from Trichoderma harzianum and conditions for enzyme production

浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2010
Trichoderma harzianum wild-type strains were implanted by N+ to produce mutagenesis. A mutant stain H-13 with higher activity of chitinase was obtained by screening the mutants with transparent zone, and analyzing chitinase activity by DNS method. Single-

PRODUCTION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF CHITINASE ENZYMES FROM SULILI HOT SPRING IN SOUTH SULAWESI, Bacillus sp. HSA,3-1a [PDF]

, 2010
Chitinase is an extracellular enzyme which is capable in hydrolyzing insoluble chitin to its oligomeric and monomeric components. The enzyme produced by thermophilic bacteria was screened and isolated from Sulili hot spring in Pinrang, South Sulawesi ...

Matrine–Tea Saponin Synergism Involves Suppressed Detoxification and Digestion in a Leaf Beetle

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Tea saponin and matrine showed synergistic toxicity against Plagiodera versicolora. Combined exposure suppressed digestion‐ and detoxification‐related processes, while silencing the trypsin gene Pver105950 and chitinase gene Pver001190 increased larval susceptibility to tea saponin and matrine, respectively.

Failed Mucosal Allostasis Distinguishes Murine IgG‐ From IgE‐Mediated Recurrent Severe Anaphylaxis

Allergy, EarlyView.
This study investigates IgE‐ and IgG‐mediated pathways in acute and recurrent anaphylaxis using a murine ASA‐PSA model, assessing barrier integrity, immune activation and tissue remodelling across pulmonary and intestinal compartments. Recurrent IgE‐ and IgG‐mediated anaphylaxis produces divergent mucosal outcomes despite comparable systemic severity ...

Human brain matters: Navigating the neuropathology of COVID‐19

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
Severe COVID‐19 is associated with vascular dysregulation and chronic neuroinflammation, leading to axonal injury and neurodegeneration. In long COVID or PASC, persistent alterations in neuroimaging and biofluid biomarkers reflect ongoing neuronal damage and neuroinflammation, contributing to long‐term neurological symptoms including fatigue, cognitive

Shared dysregulation of complement and phosphorylation pathways in the cerebrospinal fluid of encephalitis, Aicardi–Goutières syndrome, and autism

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim To identify shared and disorder‐specific molecular alterations across encephalitis, Aicardi–Goutières syndrome (AGS), and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) using cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) proteomics. Method In this cross‐sectional case–control study, mass‐spectrometry‐based proteomics was performed on archived CSF samples collected between ...
