Participation of epididymal cysteine-rich secretory proteins in sperm egg fusion and their potential use for male fertility regulation [PDF]

, 2007
Rat protein DE is an androgen-dependent cysteine-rich secretory protein (CRISP) synthesized by proximal epididymal regions. DE, also known as CRISP-1, is localized on the equatorial segment of acrosome-reacted spermatozoa and participates in gamete ...

Pss knockdown in the midgut causes growth retardation in Drosophila similar to that in human LMHD

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Phosphatidylserine synthase (PSS), localized in the mitochondrial membrane, synthesizes phosphatidylserine. In humans, mutations in Pss lead to Lenz–Majewski hyperostotic dwarfism, a disorder affecting growth and development. The effects of Pss mutations on the growth of Drosophila melanogaster are not fully known. Hence, this study

Evaluation of Aglianico grape skin and seed polyphenols astringency by SDS-PAGE electrophoresis of salivary proteins after the binding reaction [PDF]

, 2006
SDS–PAGE electrophoresis and densitometry analysis were carried out to evaluate the reactivity of Aglianico red grape skin and seed polyphenols with human salivary proteins in order to find a method able to assess their astringency.

Rumen Mycobiome Thiamine Metabolism Contributes to Subacute Rumen Acidosis Tolerance in Goats Through Enhancing Epithelial Cell Proliferation via IGFBP2/IGF1 Axis Activation

Exploration, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of the mechanism underlying the differences between SARA‐susceptible and SARA‐tolerant dairy goats fed a high‐concentrate diet. SARA‐susceptible goats (HCS) exhibit low rumen pH and metabolic decline, characterized by epithelial inflammation.

Porphyromonas gingivalis periodontal infection and its putative links with Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]

, 2015
Periodontal disease (PD) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) are inflammatory conditions affecting the global adult population. In the pathogenesis of PD, subgingival complex bacterial biofilm induces inflammation that leads to connective tissue degradation and

Uncovering the Impact of Homogenization and Dietary Fiber on the In Vitro Digestion of Cod Protein Composite Gel

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
The cod protein composite gels produced through homogenization had excellent taste properties and met the requirements for Level 6—“soft and bite‐sized” of the International Dysphagia Diets Standardization Initiative Framework, making it suitable for individuals with special needs for food texture.

Secretory RING finger proteins function as effectors in a grapevine galling insect. [PDF]

, 2019
BackgroundAll eukaryotes share a conserved network of processes regulated by the proteasome and fundamental to growth, development, or perception of the environment, leading to complex but often predictable responses to stress. As a specialized component

The effect of non‐surgical periodontal treatment on progranulin levels

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The aim of this study was to study the effect of non‐surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT) on gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and serum progranulin (PGRN) levels in the early healing phases. Methods The study included periodontitis (test) (n = 24) and periodontal health (control) (n = 24) groups.

Nuclear hBD-1 accumulation in malignant salivary gland tumours

BMC Cancer, 2008
Background Whereas the antimicrobial peptides hBD-2 and -3 are related to inflammation, the constitutively expressed hBD-1 might function as 8p tumour suppressor gene and thus play a key role in control of transcription and induction of apoptosis in ...

Dextran sodium sulfate confounds causal role of periodontitis in inflammatory bowel disease

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Emerging evidence supports a bidirectional link between periodontitis and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). To investigate this relationship, experimental models commonly use dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) to induce colitis. However, DSS is presumed to selectively affect the colon, and its potential off‐target effects on the oral ...
