Equilibrium Properties of E. coli Lactose Permease Symport -- A Random-walk Model Approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The symport of lactose and H+ is an important physiological process in E. coli, for it is closely related to cellular energy supply. In this paper, the symport of H+ and lactose by E. coli LacY protein is computationally simulated using a newly proposed cotransport model that takes the "leakage" phenomenon (uncoupled sugar translocation) into account ...

On the influence of water on THz vibrational spectral features of molecular crystals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The nanoscale structure of molecular assemblies plays a major role in many ($\mu$)-biological mechanisms. Molecular crystals are one of the most simple of these assemblies and are widely used in a variety of applications from pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, to nutraceuticals and cosmetics.

Switching off: the phenotypic transition to the uninduced state of the lactose uptake pathway [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The lactose uptake-pathway of E. coli is a paradigmatic example of multistability in gene-regulatory circuits. In the induced state of the lac-pathway, the genes comprising the lac-operon are transcribed, leading to the production of proteins which import and metabolize lactose.

Lactose Intolerance, Dairy Avoidance, and Treatment Options

open access: yesNutrients, 2018

Lactose Intolerance and Bone Health: The Challenge of Ensuring Adequate Calcium Intake

open access: yesNutrients, 2019
Calcium is an important nutrient with impact upon many biological systems, most notably bone. Ensuring adequate calcium intake throughout the lifespan is essential to building and maintaining bone.

Lactose digestion in humans: intestinal lactase appears to be constitutive whereas the colonic microbiome is adaptable

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2019
Globally, ∼70% of adults are deficient in intestinal lactase, the enzyme required for the digestion of lactose. In these individuals, the consumption of lactose-containing milk and dairy products can lead to the development of various gastrointestinal ...

Effects of Bifidobacterium longum and Lactobacillus rhamnosus on Gut Microbiota in Patients with Lactose Intolerance and Persisting Functional Gastrointestinal Symptoms: A Randomised, Double-Blind, Cross-Over Study

open access: yesNutrients, 2019
Functional gastrointestinal symptoms are frequent, and may be driven by several pathogenic mechanisms. Symptoms may persist in lactose intolerant (LI) patients (i.e., subjects with intestinal lactase deficiency, lactose malabsorption producing symptoms),

Lactose Intolerance: Common Misunderstandings

open access: yesAnnals of Nutrition and Metabolism, 2019
Lactose intolerance primarily refers to a syndrome having different symptoms upon the consumption of foods containing lactose. It is one of the most common form of food intolerance and occurs when lactase activity is reduced in the brush border of the ...

Lactose Maldigestion, Malabsorption, and Intolerance: A Comprehensive Review with a Focus on Current Management and Future Perspectives

open access: yesNutrients, 2018
Milk is a fundamental component of the diet of every mammal; nevertheless, not every individual can tolerate this kind of food, especially in adulthood.

The effect of 2′-fucosyllactose on simulated infant gut microbiome and metabolites; a pilot study in comparison to GOS and lactose

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) shape gut microbiota during infancy by acting as fermentable energy source. Using a semi-continuous colon simulator, effect of an HMO, 2′-fucosyllactose (2′-FL), on composition of the infant microbiota and microbial ...
