From hepatic to hematopoietic: LRH‐1's expanding cellular repertoire to the immune system
The nuclear receptor LRH‐1 is a well‐characterized regulator of endodermal tissue. Yet, increasing evidence indicates that LRH‐1, although expressed at low levels, is also a critical regulator of the hematopoietic system. LRH‐1 regulates the immune system by contributing to immune cell‐specific functions.

Histochemical localization of glutaminase I activity in kidney
A histochemical method is described for the demonstration of glutaminase I in sections of fresh frozen tissue cut in the cryostat. The application of this method to the kidney of the golden hamster revealed extremely high activity of glutaminase I in ...

Vitamin B6 is a critical molecule for plant metabolism and development. Rsr4‐1, a loss‐of‐function mutant in a vitamin B6 biosynthesis gene, has a distinct short root phenotype. Here we describe five novel suppressor mutants with an rsr4‐1 background that have normalized root growth and distinct phenotypic and molecular characteristics, representing a ...

Erastin-like anti-Warburg compounds X1 and X4 are GLS2-selective covalent glutaminase inhibitors
The Warburg effect is a metabolic alteration in cancer cells characterized by aerobic glycolysis and lactate production. A recent phenotypic screen for compounds that reverse Warburg metabolism identified two compounds, X1 and X4, that restore the ...

The Efficacy of Food‐Grade Substances to Protect Dietary Glutamine From Ruminal Degradation
ABSTRACT This study was conducted to investigate the use of four, low cost, food‐grade substances to protect glutamine from microbial degradation in vitro, and subsequently validate their efficacy in vivo. Two in vitro trials were conducted using 250 mL bottles replicated in triplicate to test beeswax‐, paraffin wax‐, zein‐, and rice bran wax ...

Toll Like Receptor 4: A Potential Link Between Obesity and Metabolic Diseases
ABSTRACT Epidemiological evidence shows that obesity increases the risk of developing metabolic diseases. Nevertheless, the mechanisms behind this connection remain underappreciated. The substantial impact of these disorders on global health has led to extensive research efforts aimed at identifying the pathophysiological links between them.
