Taurine depletion and Schwann cell dysfunction in diabetic neuropathy [PDF]
It is estimated that 2.6 million people in the UK suffer from diabetes, 50% of whom suffer from diabetic neuropathy. Patients with diabetes have low levels of platelet and plasma taurine and in animal models taurine supplementation ameliorates ...

Taurine induces upregulation of p53 and Beclin1 and has antitumor effect in human nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells in vitro and in vivo [PDF]
三重大学博士(医学)application/pdfTaurine is an amino acid that has several physiological functions. Previously, we reported the apoptosis-inducing effect of taurine in human nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) cells in vitro.

Intermittent Fasting Reduces Taurine Availability and Promotes Antitumor Immunity Through PERK Attenuation‐Associated Paraptosis‐Like Cell Death in Colorectal Cancer [PDF]
This study identifies reduced taurine availability as a mediator of intermittent fasting in colorectal cancer and shows that taurine interacts with GRP78 to maintain PERK abundance post‐transcriptionally. It further shows that taurine depletion destabilizes PERK, induces immunogenic paraptosis, remodels the tumor microenvironment toward a CD8+ T cell ...

Regulation and Effect of Taurine on Metabolism
Taurine (2-aminoethanesulfonic acid) has been reported to have a lot of physiological and pharmacological functions in various tissues, cells, and organelles in many species since discovered in the gall bladder of bovine in 1827, and its novel functions ...

Changes in Intracellular Taurine Content of Human Leukemic Cells [PDF]
1983-06Intracellular levels of the free amino acid taurine were measured in circulating granulocytes and mononuclear cells from 12 normal subjects and 27 patients with various types of leukemia, and in bone marrow cells from seven acute leukemias in ...

Taurine electrografting onto porous electrodes improves redox flow battery performance [PDF]
The surface properties of porous carbonaceous electrodes govern the performance, durability, and ultimately the cost of redox flow batteries. As prepared, commercially available carbon fiber electrode interfaces suffer from limited kinetic activity and ...

Ethane-β-Sultam Modifies the Activation of the Innate Immune System Induced by Intermittent Ethanol Administration in Female Adolescent Rats [PDF]
Intermittent ethanol abuse or ‘binge drinking’ during adolescence induces neuronal damage, which may be associated with cognitive dysfunction. To investigate the neurochemical processes involved, rats were administered either 1 g/kg or 2 g/kg ethanol in ...
