Role of a Serotonin Precursor in Development of Gut Microvilli [PDF]
The American Journal of Pathology, 2008 Monoamines exert diverse functions in various cells in peripheral organs as well as in the central nervous system. 5-Hydroxy-l-tryptophan (5-HTP) has been simply regarded as a precursor of serotonin, and it is believed that the biological significance of 5-HTP is essentially ascribable to the production of serotonin.

Small, EarlyView.This review explores the potential of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) and nanotechnology for the treatment of gastrointestinal infections. It analyzes bacterial resistance mechanisms, the antimicrobial actions of AMPs, and advances in nanocarriers, such as lipid‐based, polymeric, metallic, and mesoporous silica systems, that enhance peptide protection ...

Organization of the cross-filaments in intestinal microvilli. [PDF]
The Journal of cell biology, 1982 We studied the arrangement of the cross-filaments in intestinal microvilli to understand how microfilaments interact with the membrane. Observations on thin-sectioned or negatively stained microvilli with the electron microscope demonstrate that the cross-filaments on the core bundle lie opposite to one another and are spaced 32.5 nm apart. In sections

Aging Cell, EarlyView.Our study reveals that overactivation of both mTOR complexes through mLST8 in RPE cells triggers AMD‐like pathology and cellular dysfunction. This finding highlights the critical role of balanced mTOR signaling in retinal health and suggests that targeting both complexes could be therapeutic for AMD treatment.
