Sodium Iodide Symporter (NIS) and Thyroid [PDF]
idase (TPO) and incorporation into tyrosyl residues along the thyroglobulin (Tg) backbone. The thyroid hormones T3 and T4 are synthesized by coupling of two iodotyrosine residues and stored in the colloid. All of these steps are stimulated by pituitary-derived thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), which interacts with the TSH receptor at the basolateral ...

Abstract The association of overweight/obesity, and central obesity with thiocyanate (SCN), perchlorate (CIO), and nitrate (NO) in childhood and adolescence is unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to explore this association in 4447 participants comprising children and adolescents (aged 6–19 years) using data from the United States National Health and ...

A new target: Bacterial sialic acid uptake inhibition is a promising strategy for the development of antibacterial drugs. In this study, we present the design, synthesis and evaluation of sialic acid 4‐piperidine and piperazine derivatives a novel compound class, which bind the SiaT from Proteus mirabilis and target a different portion of the binding ...

Abstract Rationally designed synthetic microbial consortia carry a vast potential for biotechnological applications. The application of such a consortium in a bioprocess, however, requires tight and individual controllability of the involved microbes.

Combining oncolytic viruses with anti‐checkpoint antibodies such as anti‐PD‐1, anti‐PDL‐1, and anti‐CTLA4 or CAR‐T cells can be effective in cancer therapy in a synergistic fashion. Oncolytic virotherapy induces the expression of PD‐1 and PDL‐1 in the tumor microenvironment components. Virotherapy promotes the infiltration of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells into

Summary Camelina sativa is an oil crop with low input costs and resistance to abiotic and biotic stresses. The presence of glucosinolates, plant metabolites with adverse health effects, restricts the use of camelina for human and animal nutrition.

Anion Selectivity by the Sodium Iodide Symporter [PDF]
Abstract The iodide transporter of the thyroid (NIS) has been cloned by the group of Carrasco. The NIS-mediated transport was studied by electrophysiological methods in NIS-expressing Xenopus oocytes. Using this method, the anion selectivity of NIS was different from that previously reported for thyroid cells, whereas perchlorate and ...

A chemiosmotic mechanism of symport [PDF]
Lactose permease (LacY), a paradigm for the largest family of membrane transport proteins, catalyzes the coupled translocation of a galactoside and an H + across the Escherichia coli membrane (galactoside/H + symport).

Co-transport-induced instability of membrane voltage in tip-growing cells [PDF]
A salient feature of stationary patterns in tip-growing cells is the key role played by the symports and antiports, membrane proteins that translocate two ionic species at the same time. It is shown that these co-transporters destabilize generically the membrane voltage if the two translocated ions diffuse differently and carry a charge of opposite ...
