Interactions of Mucus Monosaccharides and the Epidermal Microbiome in Four Benthic Elasmobranchs. [PDF]

Environ Microbiol Rep
Here we collected mucus and microbes from the skin of Elasmobranchs to identify interactions between mucus and the microbial community. We identified key microbial genes involved in the metabolism of mucus carbohydrates in Elasmobranchs. ABSTRACT Epidermal mucus is a complicated mixture of macromolecules which acts as the first line of defence for ...

Mechanisms of glucosamine-induced suppression of the hepatic assembly and secretion of apolipoprotein B-100-containing lipoproteins

Journal of Lipid Research, 2006
Glucosamine-induced endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress was recently shown to specifically reduce apolipoprotein B-100 (apoB-100) secretion by enhancing the proteasomal degradation of apoB-100.

Glucosamine suppresses proliferation of human prostate carcinoma DU145 cells through inhibition of STAT3 signaling

Cancer Cell International, 2009
Background Glucosamine is known as a toxic agent for several malignant cell lines and transplanted tumors with little toxicity to normal host tissues. However, the mechanisms underlying anticancer activity of glucosamine are poorly understood.
