A Potential Role for the Interaction of Wolbachia Surface Proteins with the Brugia malayi Glycolytic Enzymes and Cytoskeleton in Maintenance of Endosymbiosis [PDF]
The human filarial parasite Brugia malayi harbors an endosymbiotic bacterium of the genus Wolbachia. The Wolbachia represent an attractive target for the control of filarial induced disease as elimination of the bacteria affects molting, reproduction and

Use of novel serum markers in clinical follow-up of Sertoli-Leydig cell turnours [PDF]
Background: Sertoli-Leyclig cell tumours of the ovary account for only 0.2% of malignant ovarian tumours. Two-thirds of all patients become apparent due to the tumour's hormone production. Methods: A 41-year-old patient (gravida 4, para 4) presented with

Experimental and bioinformatic approach to identifying antigenic epitopes in human α- and β-enolases
Human α- and β-enolases are highly homologous enzymes, difficult to differentiate immunologically. In this work, we describe production, purification and properties of anti-α- and anti-β-enolase polyclonal antibodies.

cDNA cloning and nucleotide sequence of rat muscle‐specific enolase (ββ enolase) [PDF]
The nucleotide sequence of rat muscle‐specific enolase cDNA was determined by sequencing three cDNA clones encoding this enolase isozyme. The nearly full‐length cDNA consists of 13‐bp 5′‐ and 84‐bp 3′‐noncoding regions and a poly(A) tail in addition to a 1302‐bp coding region encoding a polypeptide composed of 434 amino acid residues.

Analysis of cellular responses of macrophages to zinc ions and zinc oxide nanoparticles: a combined targeted and proteomic approach [PDF]
Two different zinc oxide nanoparticles, as well as zinc ions, are used to study the cellular responses of the RAW 264 macrophage cell line. A proteomic screen is used to provide a wide view of the molecular effects of zinc, and the most prominent results

Co‐existing monophasic teratoma and uterine adenocarcinoma in a female dog [PDF]
Ovarian teratomas are occasionally reported in dogs; the rarest type is the monophasic teratoma,composed of tissues originating from only one germ layer. Canine endometrial adenocarcinomas are also rare in dogs and mainly affect geriatric females.
