In Vivo Biotinylation of the Toxoplasma Parasitophorous Vacuole Reveals Novel Dense Granule Proteins Important for Parasite Growth and Pathogenesis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
UnlabelledToxoplasma gondii is an obligate intracellular parasite that invades host cells and replicates within a unique parasitophorous vacuole. To maintain this intracellular niche, the parasite secretes an array of dense granule proteins (GRAs) into ...

The renal phenotype of allopurinol-treated HPRT-deficient mouse.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Excess of uric acid is mainly treated with xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibitors, also called uricostatics because they block the conversion of hypoxanthine and xanthine into urate.

Allopurinol Treatment Improves Cognitive Skills, Adaptive Behavior, and Biochemical Markers in Young Patients With Adenylosuccinate Lyase Deficiency. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Inherit Metab Dis
ABSTRACT Adenylosuccinate lyase deficiency (ADSLD) is a rare neurological disorder characterized by psychomotor retardation, autistic behaviors, and seizures, with no specific treatment available. ADSL catalyzes the transformation of succinylaminoimidazole carboxamide ribotide (SAICAr) to AICAR, and succinyl‐AMP (S‐AMP) to AMP.

A New 3D Colon on a Chip to Decipher the Influence of Mechanical Forces on the Physiological Cellular Ecosystem

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
To dissect how mechanical forces influence intestinal physiology, we developed a stretchable 3D colon‐on‐chip that integrates tunable topography, stiffness and peristalsis‐like motion within a physiologically relevant microenvironment. We showed that stretching is a dominant factor governing epithelial behavior, markedly enhancing proliferation and ...

Late diagnosis of Lesch–Nyhan disease complicated with end-stage renal disease and tophi burst: a case report

open access: yesRenal Failure, 2020
Background Lesch–Nyhan disease (LND) is a rare X-linked recessive inborn error of purine metabolism. Late diagnosis of LND may cause significant morbidity. LND cases have never been reported in Indonesia.

Cathepsin B modulates lysosomal biogenesis and host defense against Francisella novicida infection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Lysosomal cathepsins regulate an exquisite range of biological functions, and their deregulation is associated with inflammatory, metabolic, and degenerative diseases in humans.

The In Vitro Transgenic Rodent Assay in Primary MutaMouse Hepatocytes Compared to the Mammalian Cell Gene Mutation Assay Using the HPRT Gene

open access: yesEnvironmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gene mutations can be detected in mammalian cells in vitro using indicator genes such as the hypoxanthine‐guanine‐phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT) gene. These assays have been adopted as OECD test guidelines (TG, e.g., OECD TG no. 476) and are used for regulatory purposes.

Glucose-Dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide (GIP) Induces Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide (CGRP)-I and Procalcitonin (Pro-CT) Production in Human Adipocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Context: Increased plasma levels of glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), calcitonin CT gene-related peptide (CGRP)-I, and procalcitonin (Pro-CT) are associated with obesity.

Kinetic Studies of Hypoxanthine-Guanine Phosphoribosyltransferase

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1968
Abstract The mechanism of reaction of human erythrocyte hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase was investigated by initial velocity, product inhibition, and isotope exchange studies. Although initial velocity data are compatible with a mechanism involving binary enzyme-substrate complexes, the product inhibition and isotope exchange studies ...
