A metagenomic survey of the fecal microbiome of the African savanna elephant (Loxodonta africana)
Animal Genetics, Volume 55, Issue 4, Page 621-643, August 2024.Abstract The African savanna elephant (Loxodonta africana) is the largest terrestrial animal on Earth and is found primarily in Southern and Eastern Africa. It is a hindgut, colonic fermenter and subsists on a diet of raw plant materials found in its grazing area.

Mimosine and cyclophosphamide: a potential new combination therapy used to prevent tumor development
Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2012 The effects of mimosine (MI), which is an amino acid that is derived from Leucaena leucocephala, were evaluated on the growth of ascitic Ehrlich tumors, and the effects of the combination treatment of MI and cyclophosphamide (CY) on tumor growth were ...

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 12, Issue 7, Page 4667-4679, July 2024.This work was the first to obtain IQ‐degrading bacteria from digestive tract of camels and to reveal the characteristics of these degrading bacteria. Results provided microbial resources for biodegradation of foodborne toxins. Abstract Heterocyclic amines (HAs) are a group of mutagenic and carcinogenic compounds produced from the processing of high ...

, 2001 Rhizobium sp. strain TAL1145 that nodulates Leucaena leucocephala degrades mimosine, a toxin produced by this tree legume. A cosmid clone, pUHR263, containing ~25 kb cloned DNA was isolated by plating Escherichia coli cells containing the cosmid clone ...

Media Peternakan, 2010 Leucaena (Leucena leucocephala) is a feed source which has high protein and carotenoid, but its utilization as feed was limited by the presence of mimosine (β-N-(3-Hydroxy-4 pyridone)-α amino propenoic acid as a toxin.

Investigational new drugs, 2019 The anticancer activity of a series of novel synthesized, hydroxypyridone-based metal chelators (analogues of L-mimosine) was evaluated in an in vitro model of melanoma consisting of malignant melanoma (A375), non-melanoma epidermoid carcinoma (A431) and

Experimental Physiology, Volume 109, Issue 7, Page 1188-1198, 1 July 2024.Abstract Previous studies have shown that podocyte injury is involved in the development of proteinuria in rats under hypobaric hypoxia conditions. Prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors (PHIs) may reduce proteinuria. This study aimed to further investigate whether the protective effects of hypoxia‐inducible factor 1α (HIF1α) on podocyte injury induced by ...

ChemBioChem, Volume 25, Issue 12, June 17, 2024.Combined experimental and computational studies of phenylalanine derivatives, with structures close to the L–DOPA, one of the natural substrates of human tyrosinase, provides conclusive evidence of their interactions with this enzyme. In particular, our findings indicate that the (S)‐3‐amino‐tyrosine stands out as an amino phenol derivative with ...

, 2002 Mimosine, the allelochemical from the leguminous tree Leucaena leucocephala, is toxic to most terrestrial animals and plants. We report here that while mimosine inhibits major phytoplankton groups, it enhances cell proliferation in dinoflagellates.
