Brown adipocytes of sucrose-overfed rats treated with corticosterone: A stereological and ultrastructural study [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Biological Sciences, 2007
The aim of this study was to examine the effects of short-term corticosterone treatment on brown adipo­cytes of rats overfed with sucrose. Ultrastructural and stereological analysis showed that brown adipocyte components responded to the applied ...

Manipulating the Expression of Glycogen Phosphorylase in Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942 to Mobilize Glycogen Storage for Sucrose Synthesis

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Cyanobacteria are a promising photosynthetic chassis to produce biofuels, biochemicals, and pharmaceuticals at the expense of CO2 and light energy. Glycogen accumulation represents a universal carbon sink mechanism among cyanobacteria, storing excess ...

The solution supramolecular structure of α2 → 8 polysialic acid suggests a structural cause for its low immunogenicity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
α2 → 8 polysialic acid elicits poor immunogenicity. Small‐angle scattering shows a supramolecular structure with parallel‐chain binding, although in different forms at μm and mm calcium. The major histocompatibility complex requires molecular weights around 2000 Da to produce antibodies, and 2000 Da polysialic oligomers will bind in these structures ...

Development of high accurate family-use digital refractometer based on CMOS [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
This study aims to develop a low-cost refractometer for measuring the sucrose content of fruit juice, which is an important factor affecting human health. While laboratory-grade refractometers are expensive and unsuitable for personal use, existing low-cost commercial options lack stability and accuracy.

The flow and evolution of ice-sucrose crystal mushes [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. E 95, 042606 (2017), 2016
We study the rheology of suspensions of ice crystals at moderate to high volume fractions in a sucrose solution in which they are partially soluble; a model system for a wide class of crystal mushes or slurries. Under step changes in shear rate, the viscosity changes to a new `relaxed' value over several minutes, in a manner well fitted by a single ...

Metabolism of soluble sugars in 4 varieties of banana, and activity of associated enzymes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Changes in amounts of sucrose, hexoses (glucose and fructose), and in activities of Sucrose-phosphate synthase (SPS), Sucrose synthase (SuSy) (sucrose hydrolytic way), Neutral Invertase (NIV) and Acid Invertase (AIV) were studied during development and ...

Metabolic engineering of Escherichia coli into a versatile glycosylation platform : production of bio‐active quercetin glycosides [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: Flavonoids are bio-active specialized plant metabolites which mainly occur as different glycosides. Due to the increasing market demand, various biotechnological approaches have been developed which use Escherichia coli as a microbial ...

Refining the NaV1.7 pharmacophore of a class of venom‐derived peptide inhibitors via a combination of in silico screening and rational engineering

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Venom peptides have shown promise in treating pain. Our study uses computer screening to identify a peptide that targets a sodium channel (NaV1.7) linked to chronic pain. We produced the peptide in the laboratory and refined its design, advancing the search for innovative pain therapies.

Plant age effect on asparagus yielding in terms of carbohydrate balance

open access: yesFolia Horticulturae, 2008
In order to examine the effect of plant age on asparagus yielding, the number and weight of spears were analyzed. The experiment was carried out on 1-, 4- and 7-year-old plants in the aeroponic system with recirculation. The results showed that the spear
