Effect of cholesterol nucleation-promoting activity on cholesterol solubilization in model bile.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1989
Human bile contains a factor with cholesterol nucleation-promoting activity that binds to concanavalin A-Sepharose. In this study we have investigated the effect of this activity on the dynamics of lipid solubilization in supersaturated model bile.

Vitronectin at sites of cell-substrate contact in cultures of rat myotubes [PDF]

, 1986
Affinity-purified antibodies to the serum glycoprotein, vitronectin, were used to study sites of cell-substrate contact in cultures of rat myotubes and fibroblasts.

Lactate inhibits glucose‐induced zigzag motility and enhances linear motility in bull spermatozoa by suppressing glycolysis

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Energy metabolism and substrate balance are critical determinants of sperm motility and fertility. Linear motility is necessary for sperm forward movement, whereas hyperactivated motility is a prerequisite for fertilization. The preference of metabolic pathways depends on substrate availability which controls sperm motility. However,

Glycosylation in the thyroid gland : vital aspects of glycoprotein function in thyrocyte physiology and thyroid disorders [PDF]

, 2018
The key proteins responsible for hormone synthesis in the thyroid are glycosylated. Oligosaccharides strongly affect the function of glycosylated proteins.

Liquid–Liquid Phase Separation in Major Hallmarks of Cancer

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Aberrant condensates formed through phase separation are involved in the dysregulation of various critical cellular processes, including genome stability, transcriptional regulation and signal transduction, thereby promoting malignant transformation and the acquisition of multiple cancer hallmarks.

The effect of abrupt weaning of suckler calves on the plasma concentrations of cortisol, catecholamines, leukocyte, acute-phase proteins and in vitro interferon-gamma production [PDF]

, 2005
End of project reportThe objective of this study was to examine the effect of abrupt weaning (inclusive of social group disruption and maternal separation) on the physiological mediators of stress and measures of immune function. Thirty-eight male and 38

A Novel Method for the Quantification of White Wine Mannoproteins by a Competitive Indirect Enzyme-Linked Lectin Sorbent Assay (CI-ELLSA) [PDF]

, 2018
Mannoproteins (MPs) are cell wall proteoglycans released in wine by yeast during fermentation and ageing on lees, a procedure used for the production of several wines to enrich them in these components with consequences from both a technological and ...

Biostimulants in plant brassinosteroid hormone receptor BRI1 activation—a new system to evaluate activation capacity

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
A novel assay evaluates plant biostimulants targeting the brassinosteroid receptor BRI1, a central component in plant growth and development. By expressing BRI1 in fission yeast, functional activation by brassinolide (BL) was enabled. Transcriptomic profiling identified BL‐responsive genes, leading to a GFP‐based reporter system. This platform offers a

YTHDF1 shapes immune-mediated hepatitis via regulating inflammatory cell recruitment and response

Genes and Diseases
Severe immune responses regulate the various clinical hepatic injuries, including autoimmune hepatitis and acute viral hepatitis. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification is a crucial regulator of immunity and inflammation.

Evolutionary divergence and functional insights into the heteromeric cis‐prenyltransferase of Paramecium tetraurelia

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Heteromeric cis‐prenyltransferases (CPT) are indispensable for dolichol synthesis and protein N‐glycosylation in most eukaryotes. The catalytic subunits are strongly conserved throughout evolution, in contrast to the evolutionarily variable accessory subunits. The POC1 protein from Paramecium tetraurelia is the smallest identified CPT‐accessory subunit
