On the utilization of salep mannan
Some experiments on the utilization of salep mannan were reported in 1911.1 It was found that this anhydride of mannose was not hydrolyzed by the enzymes of saliva, pancreatic and intestinal juice, nor by malt diastase, but disappeared almost completely from the human alimentary tract when eaten, the coefficient of digestibility in three out of four ...

The Keystone‐Pathogen Hypothesis Updated: The Role of Porphyromonas gingivalis in Periodontitis
Porphyromonas gingivalis orchestrates a coordinated manipulation of immune and inflammatory responses in periodontal tissues which leads to the generation of a dysbiotic, subgingival biofilm community, and progression of periodontitis. The type 9 secretion system, lipid A modification, and the formation of outer membrane vesicles are important ...

Novel adjuvants in allergen-specific immunotherapy: where do we stand?
Type I hypersensitivity, or so-called type I allergy, is caused by Th2-mediated immune responses directed against otherwise harmless environmental antigens. Currently, allergen-specific immunotherapy (AIT) is the only disease-modifying treatment with the

Ecological and genomic variation in ectomycorrhizal fungal exploration types
Summary Ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) produce mycelia with variable extension and complexity, which can be classified according to soil ‘exploration types’ (ETs). ETs have received attention as one of the few mycorrhizal trait frameworks, but without an empirical classification of ET functional diversity and environmental preferences, understanding and ...

Histiocytes: Multifaceted Regulators of Health and Disease
ABSTRACT The mononuclear phagocyte system encompasses macrophages, dendritic cells (DCs), and monocytes. Tissue‐resident macrophages and dendritic cells arise during embryogenesis and are replenished either through self‐renewal or by monocytes during inflammation.

ABSTRACT The dual‐species biofilms formed by Streptococcus mutans and Candida albicans exhibit enhanced cariogenic potential due to the production of extracellular polysaccharides (EPSs). The response regulator GcrR in S. mutans negatively regulates EPS synthesis, but its impact on dual‐species biofilms remains unclear.

Alliinase: A Comprehensive Review of the Pivotal Enzyme in Garlic Chemistry and Its Applications
Garlic crude extract was purified to obtain alliinase, which catalyzes alliin hydrolysis to release allicin. The free and immobilized alliinase shows potential applications in food, biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, health products, and biosensors. ABSTRACT Alliinase is a pyridoxal 5′‐phosphate (PLP)‐dependent lyase that serves as the cornerstone of the ...

ABSTRACT Objective The aim of this study is to investigate the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of porcine complement receptor 1‐like (CR1‐like) gene and its mRNA expression. Methods SNP identification, qRT‐PCR absolute quantification, linkage disequilibrium analysis and dual‐luciferase reporter assay were performed using 392 ...

Proteolytic remodelling of the extracellular matrix by pericytes
Pericytes are specialised perivascular cells intimately connected with endothelial cells and essential for the maintenance of vascular beds. They contribute to the formation and remodelling of the extracellular matrix by actively secreting proteases and protease inhibitors.
