Activity guided discovery of dual inhibitors of α-glucosidase and β-glucuronidase from the leaves of Millettia pachycarpa Benth

Journal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and cancers are two globally prevalent diseases which can increase the incidence of each other. Intestinal α-glucosidase and β-glucuronidase are key targets for glycaemic control and chemotherapy detoxification ...

Upregulation of Jasmonate-Inducible Defense Proteins and Differential Colonization of Roots of Oryza sativa Cultivars with the Endophyte Azoarcus sp.

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2006
The endophyte Azoarcus sp. strain BH72 expresses nitrogenase (nif) genes inside rice roots. We applied a proteomic approach to dissect responses of rice roots toward bacterial colonization and jasmonic acid (JA) treatment.

Glucuronidase assay in human blood and plasma.

, 2015
(A) GusA was spiked at varying concentrations into assay matrix (PBS with 2% FBS), human plasma and human blood respectively. A glucuronidase assay of the samples was performed using Cl-MUGlcU as substrate. The supernatant of spiked blood was used in the

Biomass‐derived hydrochars as eco‐friendly adsorbents for wastewater treatment applications

Environmental Progress &Sustainable Energy, EarlyView.
Abstract Emerging organic pollutants (EOPs), such as diethyl phthalate (DEP), bisphenol A (BPA), and methylene blue (MB), are only partially removed in conventional wastewater treatment plants. This study assesses hydrochars produced by hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) of spruce bark (SB), vine shoots (VSs), and wheat straw (WSs) for removing three ...

Investigation of the inhibitory potential of secondary metabolites isolated from Fernandoa adenophylla against Beta-glucuronidase via molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation studies.

PLoS ONE
Elevated β-glucuronidase activity is associated with the production of toxic metabolites that contribute to tumor development and other diseases. Inhibiting this enzyme may offer therapeutic potential, including the prevention of colonic carcinogenesis ...

Functional metagenomic screening identifies an unexpected β-glucuronidase.

, 2022
The abundance of recorded protein sequence data stands in contrast to the small number of experimentally verified functional annotation. Here we screened a million-membered metagenomic library at ultrahigh throughput in microfluidic droplets for β ...

Sexual dimorphism in hormone–gut microbiome associations across reproductive states in wild giant pandas

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Gut microbiota–host endocrine interactions in wild mammals remain poorly understood. Giant pandas experience seasonal dietary shifts and constrained annual reproduction, offering an ideal model to investigate microbiome–endocrine coupling. We integrated fecal hormone profiling, microsatellite‐based individual identification, and gut microbiome ...

Continuous Spectrophotometric Assay for β-Glucuronidase

BioTechniques, 2001
A continuous spectrophotometric assay has been developed for detecting β-glucuronidase activity. In the assay, Para-nitrophenyl β-d-glucuronide is cleaved to yield a chromophoric product. With the commercial E.

LIVER GLUCURONIDASE ACTIVITY OF RATS IN VARIOUS EXPERIMENTAL STATES

, 1953
Liver glucuronidase activity was studied in male and female rats with regard to the effect of a number of experimental factors. Virgin female and breeder female rats had significantly higher levels of the liver enzyme than males.
