Eicosapentaenoic acid prevents arterial calcification in klotho mutant mice.
PLoS ONE, 2017 BackgroundThe klotho gene was identified as an "aging-suppressor" gene that accelerates arterial calcification when disrupted. Serum and vascular klotho levels are reduced in patients with chronic kidney disease, and the reduced levels are associated ...

Linguistic mechanism of the evolution of amino acid frequencies and genomic GC content [PDF]
arXiv, 2006 Much information is stored in amino acid composition of protein and base composition of DNA. We simulated the evolution of amino acid frequencies and genomic GC content by a linguistic model. It is showed that the evolution of genetic code determines the evolution of amino acid frequencies and genomic GC content.

A narrative literature review about alpha‐lipoic acid role in dry eye and ocular surface disease
Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.Abstract Ocular surface diseases (OSD) include various conditions that affect the eye's surface, causing discomfort and pain. One such condition, dry eye disease (DED), is a multifactorial disorder that significantly impacts patients' quality of life, with prevalence rates ranging from 5% to 50% and higher incidence in women.

Genetic Code Table: A note on the three splittings into amino acid classes [PDF]
arXiv, 2009 This note represents the further progress in understanding the determination of the genetic code by Golden mean (Rakocevic, 1998). Three classes of amino acids that follow from this determination (the 7 "golden" amino acids, 7 of their complements, and 6 non-complements) are observed now together with two further possible splittings into 4 x 5 and 5 x ...

Diatom triacylglycerol metabolism: from carbon fixation to lipid droplet degradation
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Diatoms are a prominent microalgae family that has attracted interest for its production of molecules of biotechnological interest. Their fatty acid profile is rich in health‐beneficial omega‐3 eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). Furthermore, under nutrient‐deprived conditions, many diatom species, notably Phaeodactylum tricornutum, Thalassiosira ...

Eicosapentaenoic acid production by Phaeodactylum tricornutum under different culture condition
International Journal of Horticultural Science, 2004 Phaeodactylum tricornutum UTEX 640 strain of microalgae was screened under different culture conditions for their capacity to produce eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) the most abundant polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA).
