A high‐resolution data set of fatty acid‐binding protein structures. III. Unexpectedly high occurrence of wrong ligands

Acta Crystallographica Section D, Volume 81, Issue 8, Page 451-464, August 2025.
Very high‐resolution fatty acid‐binding protein structures identified a substantial number of ligands that differ strongly from their expected structure. If different ligand chemistry is a potentially overlooked problem in other, lower resolution, crystal structures of protein–ligand complexes, it has repercussions for any study using such structures ...

Somatolactogens, Somatomedins, and Immunity

Journal of Dairy Science, 1993
The neuroendocrine and immune systems participate as active partners in host homeostatic and defense mechanisms. This partnership involves a complex intercommunication system employing an array of shared ligands and receptors. Hormones of the somatolactogen family have marked influences on immune events in vivo, including the maintenance of lymphoid ...

2‐Octyl cyanoacrylate adjuvant use in calcaneal tendon repair: A comparative experimental study in rabbits

Journal of Experimental Orthopaedics, Volume 12, Issue 2, April 2025.
Abstract Purpose The treatment of Achilles tendon (AT) rupture can be conservative or surgical; the latter is better indicated in high‐performance athletes. The pursuit of faster recovery and reductions in skin complications and re‐ruptures have improved the tendon repair technique and early assisted rehabilitation programs.

Probiotics and Spirulina platensis Improved Growth Performance of Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) by Upgrading Intestinal Morphology and Activating GH/IGF Axis

Aquaculture Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Probiotics and spirulina are used to improve health, growth, and immunity of fish. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of water additive probiotics and dietary Spirulina platensis on growth (weight gain (WG) and specific growth rate (SGR)), hematobiochemical parameters (hemoglobin (Hb) and blood glucose (Glu)), intestinal histology ...

Chondroitin sulfate in invertebrate development

Proteoglycan Research, Volume 2, Issue 4, October-December 2024.
Abstract Chondroitin sulfate (CS) is one of the most evolutionarily conserved glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). Although CS's function in skeletal development is well established in vertebrates, CS exists in more primitive animal species with no cartilage or bone, such as C.

Human embryonic somatomedin. [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1981
A radioreceptor assay utilizing human fetal brain plasma membrane as matrix and somatomedin A as ligand (fetal brain RRA-SMA) was developed. Increased levels of fetal brain RRA-SMA were found in the fetal circulation. The concentration was approximately 4-fold higher in the fetal as compared to the adult human.
