Erythrocyte glycophorins as receptors for Plasmodium merozoites
Glycophorins are heavily glycosylated sialoglycoproteins of human and animal erythrocytes. In humans, there are four glycophorins: A, B, C and D. Glycophorins play an important role in the invasion of red blood cells (RBCs) by malaria parasites, which ...

Proteoglycans are important multifunctional components of the central and peripheral nervous systems and represent a diverse group of specialized proteins that stabilize and functionalize these tissues. Abstract Central and peripheral nervous system (CNS/PNS) proteoglycans (PGs) have diverse functional roles, this study examined how these control ...

EFFECT OF DIETARY GLYCOMACROPEPTIDE AND CHOLESTEROL ON CORTICAL GANGLIOSIDE- AND GLYCOPROTEIN-BOUND N-ACETYLNEURAMINIC ACID IN YOUNG RATS [PDF]
Background: Sialic acid and cholesterol are present in human milk and accumulate rapidly in the brain during development. Infant formulas contain little sialic acid or cholesterol.

THE ROLES OF POLAR CELL EXTENSIONS IN DROSOPHILA MICROPYLE FORMATION [PDF]
The Drosophila micropyle is a conserved formation utilized to allow sperm passage past the robust eggshell structure for fertilization. Micropyle formation follows a unique acellular tubulogenesis method where it is secreted and shaped by specialized ...

Genetic variants of human red-cell membrane sialoglycoprotein β. Study of the alterations occurring in the sialoglycoprotein-β gene [PDF]
We have studied the DNA of individuals who express an altered sialoglycoprotein beta on their red cells by using Southern blotting with sialoglycoprotein-beta cDNA probes. Individuals of the Leach phenotype do not express any beta (sialoglycoprotein beta) or gamma (sialoglycoprotein gamma) on their red cells, and we show that about 7 kb of DNA ...

Hyaluronan and chondroitin sulfate in chicken–vegetable bone broth delay osteoporosis progression
Abstract Bone broth has recently gained worldwide recognition as a superfood that supplements several nutrients lacking in modern human diets; however, little is known of its efficacy on osteoporosis. Therefore, we aimed to identify the components of chicken–vegetable bone broth (CVBB) that are associated with osteoporosis prevention and verified the ...

Apoptotic vesicles derived from human red blood cells promoted the osteogenesis of human mesenchymal stem cells and enhanced bone regeneration via carbonic anhydrase I. The figure was created with BioRender.com. Abstract Apoptotic vesicles (apoVs) are nanoscale vesicles derived from billions of apoptotic cells involved in the maintenance of the human ...

Characterization of Metastasis-Associated Cell Surface Glycoproteins in Prostate Cancer [PDF]
Prostate cancer (PCa) is a major health problem in males in the United States. Its lethality is mostly attributed to the primary tumor metastasizing to distant sites that are highly resistant to conventional therapies.

An insight into the reproductive biology of the bearded goby Sufflogobius bibarbatus [PDF]
Preliminary results obtained from histological analyses of the male reproductive organs, supplemented with field and behavioural data, indicate that Sufflogobius bibarbatus, a small, slow growing gobiid exhibiting low fecundity, which plays an ...
