Targeted Nucleotide Substitution in Mammalian Cell by Target-AID
Programmable RNA-guided nucleases based on CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats)-Cas (CRISPR-associated protein) systems have been applied to various type of cells as powerful genome editing tools. By using activation-induced

Uric Acid‐Lowering and Anti‐Hyperuricemia Effects of Plant‐Based Nutraceuticals and Foods: A Review
Increased UA production and/or decreased UA secretion cause hyperuricemia. Effects and mechanism of flavonoids in reducing UA are summarized. Terpenoids, saponins, alkaloids, vitamin C, polysaccharides, peptides are effective. Plant‐based foods with UA‐lowering ability are reviewed.

Leishmania promastigotes evade interleukin 12 (IL-12) induction by macrophages and stimulate a broad range of cytokines from CD4+ T cells during initiation of infection. [PDF]
Leishmania major are intramacrophage parasites whose eradication requires the induction of T helper 1 (Th1) effector cells capable of activating macrophages to a microbicidal state.

Perinatal supplementation with Limosilactobacillus reuteri (L. reuteri) during gestation and early postnatal life induces long‐lasting, sex‐specific effects on the microbiota–gut–brain axis. Treated male offspring showed enhanced sociability, social recognition, microbial shifts, and coordinated transcriptional changes across the brain and gut.

Immunization with purine salvation pathway recombinant enzymes induces the production of anti- Schistosoma mansoni immunoglobulines [PDF]
Schistosomiasis, a disease caused by the trematodes of the Schistosoma genus, affects about 240 million people worldwide. The Praziquantel (PZQ) is the drug used to treat this disease. However, reports of resistant strains reinforce the need to develop a

The antiepileptic potential of nucleosides [PDF]
Despite newly developed antiepileptic drugs to suppress epileptic symptoms, approximately one third of patients remain drug refractory. Consequently, there is an urgent need to develop more effective therapeutic approaches to treat epilepsy. A great deal

Abstract Pregnancy demands increased food intake and nutrient delivery to support the growing conceptus. The timing and regional specificity of adaptations in small intestinal (SI) anatomy and transport, and their functional consequences, remain unclear. We therefore assessed anatomy and expression of macronutrient transporters in the duodenum, jejunum,

Metabolic and neurobehavioral disturbances induced by purine recycling deficiency in Drosophila
Adenine phosphoribosyltransferase (APRT) and hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRT) are two structurally related enzymes involved in purine recycling in humans.
