Lower Fetuin-A, Retinol Binding Protein 4 and Several Metabolites after Gastric Bypass Compared to Sleeve Gastrectomy in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes

PLoS ONE, 2014
Background Bypass of foregut secreted factors promoting insulin resistance is hypothesized to be one of the mechanisms by which resolution of type 2 diabetes (T2D) follows roux-en-y gastric bypass (GBP) surgery.

Essential Oils From the Fruit of Amomum villosum Lour. Alleviate LPS‐Induced Neuroinflammation by Repressing PI3K‐Akt and MAPK Signaling Pathways

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
Amomum villosum essential oil (AVEO) alleviates LPS‐induced neuroinflammation and cognitive and behavioral dysfunction by suppressing PI3K‐Akt and MAPK signaling pathways, modulating inflammatory responses, and restoring metabolic homeostasis, thereby exerting neuroprotective effects. ABSTRACT Amomum villosum Lour.

The STRA6 Receptor Is Essential for Retinol-binding Protein-induced Insulin Resistance but Not for Maintaining Vitamin A Homeostasis in Tissues Other Than the Eye*

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2013
Background: STRA6 transports retinol into cells and activates cell signaling. Results: Ablation of Stra6 does not impair vitamin A homeostasis in tissues other than the eye but protects mice against RBP-induced insulin resistance.

Integrative Bioinformatics, Experimental Validation, and Interpretable Machine Learning Reveal Oxyresveratrol‐Mediated Protection Against Cadmium‐Induced Lung Adenocarcinoma‐Related Transcriptional Dysregulation

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic heavy metal strongly implicated in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) through mechanisms involving oxidative stress, epigenetic dysregulation, and chronic inflammation. This study aimed to identify Cd‐responsive genes associated with LUAD and to evaluate the protective effects of oxyresveratrol (O‐RES) against Cd‐induced ...

Fatty Acid-and Retinol-Binding Protein, Mj-FAR-1 Induces Tomato Host Susceptibility to Root-Knot Nematodes

PLoS ONE, 2013
Plant-parasitic nematodes produce at least one structurally unique class of small helix-rich retinol- and fatty-acid-binding proteins that have no counterparts in their plant hosts.

Iterative phase retrieval in macromolecular crystal diffraction using the gradients of intensities

Journal of Applied Crystallography, EarlyView.
Incorporating molecular intensity gradients into an iterative projection algorithm enables model‐free electron‐density reconstruction even for low‐solvent macromolecular crystals.Iterative phase retrieval (IPR) offers a model‐independent route to crystallographic structure determination but is fundamentally limited by the sampling of the diffraction ...

The immunological landscape of the area postrema in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
Aquaporin‐4 antibody‐positive neuromyelitis spectrum disorder is characterized by large tissue destructive lesions in medulla, spinal cord, and optic nerves, with only partial recovery from clinical symptoms, and by lesions with very little tissue destruction and mostly complete recovery from clinical symptoms, as seen in the area postrema ...
