Functionalisation of Ti6Al4V and hydroxyapatite surfaces with combined peptides based on KKLPDA and EEEEEEEE peptides [PDF]
Surface modifications are usually performed on titanium alloys to improve osteo-integration and surface bioactivity. Modifications such as alkaline and acid etching, or coating with bioactive materials such as hydroxyapatite, have previously been ...

Testicular endocrine activity is upregulated by D-Aspartic acid in the green frog Rana esculenta [PDF]
This study investigated the involvement of D-aspartic acid (D-Asp) in testicular steroidogenesis of the green frog Rana esculenta and its effect on stimulation of thumb pad morphology and glandular activity, a typical testosterone-dependent secondary ...

Enantioselective Synthesis of Homosphingosine Derivatives from l-Aspartic Acid [PDF]
The sterically demanding 9-phenylfluorenyl N-protection of a number of amino acids allows the formation of amino acid derived β-ketophosphonate reagents and their Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons olefination. In an attempt to develop a synthesis of D-erythro-homosphingosine in enantiopure form, we have shown that the reactivity of the intermediates is ...

A Novel Inhibitor of β-Glucuronidase: l-Aspartic Acid [PDF]
Infants who consume casein hydrolysate formula have been shown to have lower neonatal jaundice levels than infants who consume routine formula or breast milk. Because casein hydrolysate has been shown to contain a beta-glucuronidase inhibitor, one possible mechanism to explain this finding is blockage of the enterohepatic circulation of bilirubin by a ...

Ostracode-based aminostratigraphy and aminochronology of a tufa system in central Spain [PDF]
In the Priego area, central Spain, extensive tufa deposits are located in three small tributaries located at the head of the 1000 kmlong Tagus River. The deposits are originated after karst-origin running waters emerged from the confines of the canyons ...

Change of Indices of the Amino Acid Composition of Rats' Hearts at Artificial Hypobiosis [PDF]
A series of unsolved questions in such sciences as: medicine, veterinary, biology still exist in the modern world. One of them is a search for new promising ways of anaesthetization, at which it would be unnecessary to use apparatuses as an “artificial ...

pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9
Cells monitor nutrient levels via the lysosomal transporter SLC38A9 to activate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). This study reveals that SLC38A9 function is regulated by pH. We identified histidine 544 as a critical pH sensor that undergoes conformational changes to control amino acid efflux from lysosomes; therefore, it ...
