LASP1, a Novel Protein in Spermatozoa and Acrosome Reaction
LASP1 is expressed in spermatozoa, binds to F‐actin, and builds up the equatorial ring structure during acrosome reaction, which is important for hyaluronan receptor surface presentation. ABSTRACT LIM and SH3 protein 1 (LASP1) is a widely expressed scaffold protein associated with actin‐rich structures. In Lasp1‐knockout mice, reproductive defects such

Abstract Aerobic exercise enhances physiological performance by activating metabolic systems, including glucose oxidation and fat metabolism. Cellular glucose predominantly flows through glycolysis (95–98%), whereas a smaller fraction (2–5%) enters the hexosamine biosynthetic pathway (HBP), generating UDP‐N‐acetylglucosamine.

Studies on Gluconeogenesis in Galactosamine Induced Hepatitis
SummaryHepatitis was induced in animals treated with D-GalN-HCl (1.5 g/kg) in vitro. Incorporation of alanine-UL-14C, pyruvate-2-14C, and glutamic-3,4-14C acid into glucose by liver slices from GalN-treated animals was found decreased to 20-25% of the control values. The CO2 production from these substrates was impaired by 50%.

The metabolism of
d-[1−14C]Galactosamine appears to be utilized mainly by the pathway of galactose metabolism in rat liver, as evidenced by the products isolated from the acid-soluble fraction of perfused rat liver. These products were eluted in the following order from a Dowex 1 (formate form) column and were characterized as galactosamine 1-phosphate, sialic acid, UDP-

ABSTRACT Gut microbiota dysbiosis promotes colorectal cancer (CRC) tumorigenesis. A global fecal metagenomic analysis identified Gemella morbillorum as a key contributor to the CRC‐associated microbiota. Fluorescence in situ hybridization revealed that Gemella morbillorum is enriched in CRC tumor tissues compared to adjacent normal tissues.

Hepatocyte BDNF Acts as a Novel Immune Checkpoint to Restrain TLR4‐Mediated Acute Hepatitis
This study identifies hepatocyte‐derived BDNF as an endogenous TLR4 antagonist that alleviates acute hepatitis. BDNF is downregulated in hepatocytes via REST‐mediated transcriptional repression during ALI/ALF. Mechanistically, BDNF binds to TLR4 on macrophages to suppress inflammation.

Apolipoprotein C-III (apo C-III) is a 79 amino acid glycoprotein. The sugar moiety of apoC-III is attached to amino acid residue 74 and is thought to consist of 1 mole of galactose, 1 mole of N-acetyl-galactosamine, and either 0, 1, or 2 moles of sialic ...

Intestinal lipoproteins in the rat with D-(+)-galactosamine hepatitis.
D-(+)-galactosamine (GalN) induces severe reversible hepatocellular injury in the rat accompanied by lecithin: cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) deficiency, defective chylomicron (CM) catabolism, and accumulation of abnormal plasma lipoproteins (Lps ...
