Microbial translocation and T cell activation are modified by direct-acting antiviral therapy in HCV-infected patients [PDF]

, 2018
BACKGROUND: Microbial translocation from the gut lumen has been involved in the pathogenesis of liver damage in hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. AIM: To investigate the impact of direct-acting antiviral treatment on microbial translocation and T ...

Recent Progress in the Microbial Production of Pyruvic Acid

, 2017
Pyruvic acid (pyruvate) is a cellular metabolite found at the biochemical junction of glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid cycle. Pyruvate is used in food, cosmetics, pharmaceutical and agricultural applications.

Response of Fecal Bacteria and Fungi to Tannin‐Rich Diets in Sika Deer (Cervus nippon): Evidence from Both Feeding Experiments and Field Investigations

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Feeding with tannin‐rich diets altered the fecal microbial composition and increased the relative abundance of tannin‐degrading microbes. We hypothesize that fecal bacteria and fungi may play important roles in helping herbivores adapt to tannin‐rich diets but respond to different tannin concentrations varies.

Variability in Bulb Organosulfur Compounds, Sugars, Phenolics, and Pyruvate among Greek Garlic Genotypes: Association with Antioxidant Properties

Antioxidants, 2020
In order to assess the diversity of Greek garlic (Allium sativum L.) landraces, 34 genotypes including commercial ones were grown in the same field and their content in organosulfur compounds, pyruvate, total sugars, and total phenolics, alongside ...

High‐Altitude Adaptation of Frogs (Case Study: Nanorana parkeri): From Physiological Phenotypes to AltitudeOmics

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
High altitudes are challenging for the animals that inhabit these environments. The Xizang plateau frog (Nanorana parkeri) survives in high‐altitude environments through a synergistic strategy of metabolic remodeling and protein expression adjustment to optimize energy efficiency and enhance cellular protection.

Inversely polarized thermo-electrochemical power generation via the reaction of an organic redox couple on a TiO2/Ti mesh electrode

Scientific Reports, 2021
We demonstrate thermo-electrochemical (TEC) conversion using a biocompatible redox couple of lactic acid and pyruvic acid on earth-abundant TiO2. The TEC cell exhibited a positive Seebeck coefficient of 1.40 mV K−1.

Impact of Sorting and Catch Media on Porcine Sperm Motility, Capacitation, and Viability

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Fluorescence‐activated cell sorting (FACS) has emerged as a powerful tool for selecting spermatozoa of a desired population of fluorescent biomarkers, offering potential applications in reproductive biology and agriculture. However, concerns remain regarding sorting‐induced physiological alterations that could compromise spermatozoa
