Proteomic Analysis of Fresh and Liquid-Stored Boar Spermatozoa
In this study comparative proteomics was used to define changes in the expression of the spermatozoa proteins during liquid storage. Semen from eight boars was analyzed on the day of collection and after liquid preservation at 15−17 °C for ...

Effects of varicocele and microsurgical varicocelectomy on the metabolites in semen
The influence of varicocele and microsurgical varicocelectomy on semen quality remains unclear. Few studies have investigated the relationship between semen metabolism and the abnormalities in reproductive function caused by varicocele, however, there is

Abstract INTRODUCTION The PSEN1E280A mutation causes autosomal dominant Alzheimer's disease (ADAD) with predictable onset, enabling presymptomatic studies. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are emerging biomarkers of cognitive decline, but their role in early ADAD is unclear.

The ester hydrolytic and synthetic activities of X-prolyl dipeptidyl peptidase from Streptococcus thermophilus : a thesis presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Biochemistry at Massey University, New Zealand [PDF]
X-prolyl dipeptidyl peptidase (EC 3.4.14.11), or PepX, is a dipeptidase found in most dairy lactic acid bacteria that hydrolyses N-terminal dipeptides from larger peptides where proline is the residue penultimate to the scissile bond.

Angiotensin-I-Converting Enzyme and its Relatives [PDF]
Angiotensin-I-converting enzyme (ACE) is a monomeric, membrane-bound, zinc- and chloridedependent peptidyl dipeptidase that catalyzes the conversion of the decapeptide angiotensin I to the octapeptide angiotensin II, by removing a carboxy-terminal ...

Three metabolites, pyroglutamylglycine (pyroGluGly), phenylalanine (Phe), and phenylalanyltryptophan (PheTrp), were identified as candidate DILI biomarkers. The serum concentrations of pyroGluGly, Phe, and PheTrp demonstrated a high differentiating ability in patients with mixed and cholestatic DILI compared with those in patients who recovered from ...

Expanding the Immunologic and Neuronal Landscape of IgE‐Mediated Anaphylaxis
ABSTRACT Anaphylaxis is a life‐threatening immunoglobulin E (IgE)‐mediated type I hypersensitivity reaction with rising prevalence and burden. It involves mast cell degranulation upon cross‐linking of antigen on mast cell‐bound IgE. Mechanisms of IgE‐mediated anaphylaxis remain incompletely understood, particularly the induction of systemic symptoms ...

Aristolochic acid induces chronic kidney disease in ace knockout mice
Background: Aristolochic acid I (AAI) is an extract from Chinese herbs that causes progressive interstitial nephritis. The aim of this research is to know whether chymases play the crucial role in AAI-induced nephropathy.

Early Nutritional Programing: Unlocking the Potential of Fish for Sustainable Aquaculture
Nutritional programing, which explores the link between early nutritional conditions and their long‐term effects on animals, is a developing field within fish biology. Suboptimal nutritional status during early life is strongly associated with a higher risk of metabolic consequences later in life, including permanent growth retardation, impaired neural
