Uninephrectomy in rats on a fixed food intake potentiates both anorexia and circulating cytokine subsets in response to LPS.

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2015
Recent human studies have suggested that mild reduction in kidney function can alter immune response and increase susceptibility to infection. The role of mild reduction in kidney function in altering susceptibility to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS ...

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Influence of soil type on damping reduction factor: A stochastic analysis based on peak theory

open access: yes, 2018
Damping reduction factor plays a central role both in scientific literature and seismic codes, but still now proposed formulations show a quite large scatter.

Differential Regulation of the Heat Shock Factor 1 and DAF-16 by Neuronal nhl-1 in the Nematode C. elegans

open access: yesCell Reports, 2014
In the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, insulin/insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) signaling (IIS) reduction hyperactivates the transcription factors DAF-16 and heat shock factor 1 (HSF-1), creating long-lived, stress-resistant worms that are protected

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Review and Derivation of Areal Reduction Factor in Malaysia with Response to Changing Climate

open access: yesKSCE Journal of Civil Engineering, 2018
This study presents the reviews and derivations of ARF for storm design applications in Malaysia. Considering that present rainfall characteristics may change due to climate change, rainfall time series data of the selected rainfall interval of nine rainfall stations in Kuala Lumpur were examined by several homogeneity tests and trend test to determine
