Measuring VLDL1 secretion in humans with an intravenous fat emulsion test

open access: yesSTAR Protocols, 2023
Summary: Tracer techniques to assess very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) secretion in humans are expensive, are time consuming, and require mathematical models to estimate VLDL kinetics. Here, we describe an alternative, time- and cost-efficient protocol

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Nutritional status in patients with cutaneous leishmaniasis and a study of the effects of zinc supplementation together with antimony treatment

open access: yesFood & Nutrition Research, 2014
Background: The role of micronutrient status for the incidence and clinical course of cutaneous leishmaniasis is not much studied. Still zinc supplementation in leishmaniasis has shown some effect on the clinical recovery, but the evidence in humans is ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Differential organ responses to fumonisins in rabbits: kidney, liver, and spleen membrane fatty acid composition, oxidation markers, and histopathology

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science
The study assessed the kidney, liver, and spleen of adult male rabbits (n = 10/group) in relation to fumonisin B series exposure (10 and 20 mg FB1 + FB2 + FB3/kg feed) over a period of 65 days.

Applicability of commercial clinical chemistry test kits for horse serum

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2021
Objective Validation of a test method is critical for confirming that the test can generate accurate and precise data. Although commercial biochemical test kits exist there are no specific and validated commercial clinical chemistry test kits designed ...

Intracellular Clinical Chemistry

open access: yesClinical Chemistry, 1972
Abstract The plasma compartment, on which almost all routine analyses in clinical chemistry are performed, occupies only a small part of the body, most of which consists of cells. For most components the intracellular and extracellular compartments have a different composition in health, and change differently in disease.

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Clinical Chemistry and Autoverification: A Path Less Traversed [PDF]

open access: yesIndian Journal of Medical Biochemistry
Aims and background: Autoverification (AV) is an application of artificial intelligence that uses computer-based algorithmically established rules for release of patient reports. This allows effective time management, prevents probable laboratory errors,
