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

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 ...

Cathepsin B modulates lysosomal biogenesis and host defense against Francisella novicida infection [PDF]
Lysosomal cathepsins regulate an exquisite range of biological functions, and their deregulation is associated with inflammatory, metabolic, and degenerative diseases in humans.

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]
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
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 ...
