Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Differentiation of gram-negative bacterial aerosol exposure using detected markers in bronchial-alveolar lavage fluid. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2009
The identification of biosignatures of aerosol exposure to pathogens has the potential to provide useful diagnostic information. In particular, markers of exposure to different types of respiratory pathogens may yield diverse sets of markers that can be ...

Designable visual markers [PDF]

, 2009
Visual markers are graphic symbols designed to be easily recognised by machines. They are traditionally used to track goods, but there is increasing interest in their application to mobile HCI. By scanning a visual marker through a camera phone users can

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Effects of hyperbaric pressure on the oxidative stress status in healthy subjects

Revista Cubana de Medicina Militar, 2023
Introduction: In the hyperbaric pressure environment the partial pressure of each gas component increases, which increases oxygen partial pressure. This causes the generation of free radicals and oxidative stress. Objective: To determine the effects of

Annexin A1 Tripeptide Mimetic Increases Sirtuin-3 and Augments Mitochondrial Function to Limit Ischemic Kidney Injury

Frontiers in Physiology, 2021
Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the most common organ failures following surgery. We have developed a tripeptide mimetic (ANXA1sp) of the parent annexin A1 molecule that shows promise as an organ protectant limiting cellular stress ...

Structural insights and therapeutic targets in Acinetobacter baumannii capsule biosynthesis

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Hypervirulent KL49 A. baumannii's capsular polysaccharide contains the nonulosonic acid 8‐epi‐Leg5,7Ac2, synthesized by epimerization via ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC. Crystal structures of ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC reveal their role in CMP‐Leg5,7Ac2 synthesis and regioselective C8 epimerization.

Association of Rest‐Activity Rhythm and Sleep Regularity With Cardiometabolic Disease in the CARDIA Study

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Disrupted circadian rhythms are associated with cardiometabolic disease. We examined associations between rest‐activity rhythms and cardiometabolic disease by race.

P55 TARGET ORGAN DAMAGE AND BLOOD PRESSURE VARIABILITY IN HYPERTENSION

Artery Research, 2017
Purpose/Background/Objectives: Hypertension is associated with several markers of subclinical target organ damage (TOD). Short-term blood pressure variability (SBPV) is a prognostic factor for cardiovascular events in hypertensives.

One-Hour Postload Glucose Is a More Sensitive Marker of Impaired β-Cell Function Than Two-Hour Postload Glucose

Diabetes
There is evidence that 1-h plasma glucose (PG) concentration during the 75-g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) is superior to 2-h PG level in predicting diabetes. We investigated the characteristics of insulin sensitivity and β-cell function behind this observation.
