Ion channel function of polycystin‐2/polycystin‐1 heteromer revealed by structure‐guided mutagenesis

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mutations in polycystin‐1 (PC1) or polycystin‐2 (PC2) cause autosomal‐dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). We generated a novel gain‐of‐function PC2/PC1 heteromeric ion channel by mutating pore‐blocking residues. Moreover, we demonstrated that PC2 will preferentially assemble with PC1 to form heteromeric complexes when PC1 is co‐expressed ...

Fish Food and Fish Diseases

Journal of Fisheries & Livestock Production, 2017
Without too technical information we will explain what we experienced during our 40+ years of feeding ornamental fish at wholesale level. In the early 90s, during our daily practice, we had 1 goal: using a complete food for ornamental fish that would provide high quality fish within 3-7 days, depending on the origin and quality of the fish. Next to the

A blend of chitosan-vitamin C and vitamin E nanoparticles robust the immunosuppressed- status in Nile tilapia treated with salt

BMC Veterinary Research
In aquaculture, fish are exposed to many stressors, such as climate changes and infectious diseases that affect their performance, immunity, and welfare. Freshwater fish subjected to salt bath become exhausted and stressed.

A PRELIMINARY STUDY OF THE PREVALENCE OF ANTIBODIES TO INFECTIOUS BURSAL DISEASE IN BROILER CHICKENS

The Iraqi Journal of Veterinary Medicine, 1987
Infectious bursal disease is one of the diseases frequently diagnosed in broilers chickens in _ Iraq depending on pathological changes in the bursa of Fabricius. It is known that maternal antibodies may interfere with the clinical signs, severity of the

Protonophore activity of short‐chain fatty acids induces their intracellular accumulation and acidification

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The protonated form of butyrate, as well as other short‐chain fatty acids (SCFAs), is membrane permeable. In acidic extracellular environments, this can lead to intracellular accumulation of SCFAs and cytosolic acidification. This phenomenon will be particularly relevant in acidic environments such as the large intestine or tumor microenvironments ...

Distribution of choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) immunoreactivity in the brain of the teleost cyprinus carpio [PDF]

, 2018
Cholinergic systems play a role in basic cerebral functions and its dysfunction is associated with deficit in neurodegenerative disease. Mechanisms involved in human brain diseases, are often approached by using fish models, especially cyprinids, given ...

Modifications in FLAP's second cytosolic loop influence 5‐LOX interaction, inhibitor binding, and leukotriene formation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The enzyme 5‐lipoxygenase (5‐LOX) catalyzes the first step in the biosynthesis of leukotrienes (LTs) involved in inflammatory pathophysiology. After cellular stimulation, 5‐LOX translocates to the nucleus, interacting with the 5‐LOX‐activating protein (FLAP) to form LTA4 from arachidonic acid (AA).

Occurrence of virulence factors and antimicrobial susceptibility of Citrobacter freundii isolated from diseased ornamental fish in Poland

Journal of Veterinary Research
Citrobacter freundii strains, like other representatives of the same genus, are often described as aetiological factors of diseases in humans and animals, including farmed and ornamental fish.
