Exploring Glyoxalase Strategies for Managing Sugar-Induced Chronic Diseases [PDF]
The liver’s crucial role in methylglyoxal (MG) metabolism is frequently overlooked in the literature. We present a perspective that enhances the current understanding of the role of methylglyoxal (MG) and the glyoxalase cycle in the pathogenesis of ...

Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron Fosters the Growth of Butyrate-Producing Anaerostipes caccae in the Presence of Lactose and Total Human Milk Carbohydrates [PDF]
The development of infant gut microbiota is strongly influenced by nutrition. Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOSs) in breast milk selectively promote the growth of glycan-degrading microbes, which lays the basis of the microbial network. In this study, we

Associations of Human Milk Oligosaccharides With Otitis Media and Lower and Upper Respiratory Tract Infections up to 2 Years: The Ulm SPATZ Health Study [PDF]
Background: Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) support and concurrently shape the neonatal immune system through various mechanisms. Thereby, they may contribute to lower incidence of infections in infants.

PROPERTY-PROPERTY RELATIONSHIPS FOR MONOSACCHARIDES
The enormous diversity and complexity of polysaccharides resides in the large number of anomeric positions, diversity in the size of the rings as well as of the large number of the linkage positions of the monosaccharides.

Oxidative Conversion of Glucose to Formic Acid as a Renewable Hydrogen Source Using an Abundant Solid Base Catalyst [PDF]
Formic acid is one of the most desirable liquid hydrogen carriers. The selective production of formic acid from monosaccharides in water under mild reaction conditions using solid catalysts was investigated. Calcium oxide, an abundant solid base catalyst

Hyperpolarized Dihydroxyacetone Is a Sensitive Probe of Hepatic Gluconeogenic State
Type II diabetes and pre-diabetes are widely prevalent among adults. Elevated serum glucose levels are commonly treated by targeting hepatic gluconeogenesis for downregulation. However, direct measurement of hepatic gluconeogenic capacity is accomplished

The active centre of triose phosphate isomerase [PDF]
The molecular weight and amino acid composition of triose phosphate isomerase have been determined. The molecular weight (43000) is lower and the molecular activity (500000) higher than those of most other glycolytic enzymes. Reaction with iodoacetate (studied with radioactive reagent) takes place in two phases: in the first phase, at pH6.3, cysteine ...

Refolding of triose phosphate isomerase [PDF]
The refolding and reactivation of the glycolytic enzyme triose phosphate isomerase (EC 5.3.1.1) has been studied. The enzyme, which is a dimer, is disaggregated and unfolded in solutions of guanidinium chloride. Unfolding, followed by changes in E233, took place quite rapidly in 3m-guanidinium chloride (i.e. with a half-life of about 1 min).
