Lack of regulation of 11 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 during short-term manipulation of GH in patients with hypopituitarism [PDF]
Objective: Evidence from long-term clinical studies measuring urinary steroid ratios. and from in vitro studies, suggests that GH administered for longer than 2 months down-regulates 11 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11 beta-HSD1), thereby ...

Suppression of the Nrf2-dependent antioxidant response by glucocorticoids and 11β-HSD1-mediated glucocorticoid activation in hepatic cells [PDF]
Nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (Nrf2) is a key transcription factor regulating a plethora of detoxifying enzymes and antioxidant genes involved in drug metabolism and defence against oxidative stress.

Comparison Of The Amino Acid Sequence Of L-Mandelate Dehydrogenase From Rhodotorula Graminis With Other L-2-Hydroxyacid Dehydrogenase Enzyme And Its Primary Structure Prediction [PDF]
A comparison of the primary structure for L-mandelate dehydrogenase (L-MDH) from Rhodotorula graminis with other proteins from the protein databank suggests that there is similarity between this protein and L-2-hydroxyacid dehydrogenase enzymes.

Chlorproguanil−Dapsone−Artesunate versus Artemether−Lumefantrine : a randomized, double-blind phase III trial in African children and adolescents with uncomplicated plasmodium falciparum malaria [PDF]
Chlorproguanil−dapsone−artesunate (CDA) was developed as an affordable, simple, fixed-dose artemisinin-based combination therapy for use in Africa. This trial was a randomized parallel-group, double-blind, double-dummy study to compare CDA and artemether−

Cloning and sequence analysis of cDNAs encoding the cytosolic precursors of subunits GapA and GapB of chloroplast glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase from pea and spinach [PDF]
Chloroplast glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) is composed of two different subunits, GapA and GapB. cDNA clones containing the entire coding sequences of the cytosolic precursors for GapA from pea and for GapB from pea and spinach have ...

The Plant Short-Chain Dehydrogenase (SDR) superfamily:genome-wide inventory and diversification patterns [PDF]
Background Short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDRs) form one of the largest and oldest NAD(P)(H) dependent oxidoreductase families. Despite a conserved 'Rossmann-fold' structure, members of the SDR superfamily exhibit low sequence similarities, which

ALDH2 mediates 5-nitrofuran activity in multiple species
Understanding how drugs work in vivo is critical for drug design and for maximizing the potential of currently available drugs. 5-nitrofurans are a class of pro-drugs widely used to treat bacterial and trypanosome infections, but despite relative ...
