Current Insight into Human Ornithine Aminotransferase: A Review
ABSTRACT Human ornithine aminotransferase (hOAT) is a mitochondrial matrix pyridoxal‐5′‐phosphate enzyme (PLP) that catalyzes the reversible transfer of the δ‐amino group of L‐ornithine (L‐Orn) to α‐ketoglutarate (α‐KG) yielding glutamate‐5‐semialdehyde (GSA) and glutamate. GSA is prone to cyclize to Δ1‐pyrroline‐5‐carboxylate.

Polyamine metabolism is innervation responsive and involved in denervation‐induced muscle atrophy. Inhibition of polyamine metabolism attenuates muscle atrophy by restraining proteolysis and preserving MuSCs homeostasis. Denervation‐induced activation of FAP‐derived FGF7 drives premature MuSCs activation, while DFMO suppresses this paracrine cue to ...

Regulation of ovarian ornithine decarboxylase by human chorionic gonadotrophin
Treatment of 29-day-old female Sprague-Dawley rats with human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) produced a large and rapid increase in the activity of ornithine decarboxylase.

It has been hypothesized that both the 3′-untranslated region (3′UTR) and the 5′-untranslated region (5′UTR) of the ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) mRNA influence the expression of the ODC protein.

The Oral‐Gut Axis: Bidirectional Interactions Between Microbiome and Diseases
This study aims to summarize the mechanisms underlying ectopic colonization of the gut by oral pathobionts and the microbial and host factors that regulate this process. ABSTRACT Increased colonization of typically oral microorganisms is frequently observed in the gut mucosa or lumen of individuals with gastrointestinal disorders, including patients ...

A quantitative cytochemical method for ornithine decarboxylase activity.
Although decarboxylases, particularly ornithine decarboxylase, are of considerable importance in cell metabolism, it has been impossible to demonstrate their activity histochemically, as this depends on trapping carbon dioxide at neutral pH values.

Thioredoxin system modulates metabolic and stomatal responses to elevated CO2 in Arabidopsis
Integrative model of extraplastidial NADPH‐dependent thioredoxin reductase/thioredoxin system‐mediated regulation of stomatal function, redox homeostasis, and metabolic responses under ambient and elevated CO2 in Arabidopsis thaliana. Summary The NADPH‐dependent thioredoxin reductase/thioredoxin (NTR/TRX) system plays a central role in maintaining ...

Differential effects of difluoromethylornithine on basal and induced activity of cerebral ornithine decarboxylase and mRNA [PDF]
The induction of the activity of cerebral ornithine decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.17) and mRNA by electrical stimulation exhibits regional differences. The effects of the enzyme inhibitor difluoromethylornithine on these regional variations was examined ...

ABSTRACT Rice is the staple crop for more than half of the global population, and improving grain yield, grain quality, and stress resistance remain central goals of modern rice breeding. Among current precision breeding strategies, genome editing has created new opportunities for crop improvement, but its success depends heavily on the selection of ...
