CXCL16 and oxLDL are induced in the onset of diabetic nephropathy [PDF]

, 2009
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a major cause of end-stage renal failure worldwide. Oxidative stress has been reported to be a major culprit of the disease and increased oxidized low density lipoprotein (oxLDL) immune complexes were found in patients with ...

Post‐uptake metabolism affects quantification of amino acid uptake [PDF]

New Phytologist, 2011
Summary The quantitative significance of amino acids to plant nutrition remains controversial. This experiment determined whether post‐uptake metabolism and root to shoot export differ between glycine and glutamine, and examined implications for estimation of amino acid uptake.

Inhibiting stearoyl‐CoA desaturase suppresses bone metastatic prostate cancer by modulating cellular stress, mTOR signaling, and DNA damage response

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Bone metastasis in prostate cancer (PCa) patients is a clinical hurdle due to the poor understanding of the supportive bone microenvironment. Here, we identify stearoyl‐CoA desaturase (SCD) as a tumor‐promoting enzyme and potential therapeutic target in bone metastatic PCa.

Decreasing influenza vaccine coverage among adults with high-risk chronic diseases in Spain from 2014 to 2017

Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2020
The objectives of this study were to estimate coverage of influenza vaccination in Spain among adults suffering chronic conditions, to assess time trends from 2014 to 2017 and to identify vaccine uptake predictors. We used individualized data of persons ≥

Amino Acid Transporters in Plant Cells: A Brief Review

Plants, 2020
Amino acids are not only a nitrogen source that can be directly absorbed by plants, but also the major transport form of organic nitrogen in plants. A large number of amino acid transporters have been identified in different plant species.

Root uptake of lipophilic zinc-rhamnolipid complexes [PDF]

, 2008
This study investigated the formation and plant uptake of lipophilic metal-rhamnolipid complexes. Monorhamnosyl and dirhamnosyl rhamnolipids formed lipophilic complexes with copper (Cu), manganese (Mn), and zinc (Zn). Rhamnolipids significantly increased

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Uptake of the HPV vaccine among people with and without HIV, cisgender and transgender women and men who have sex with men and with women at two sexual health clinics in Mexico City

Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2020
Our aim was to better understand Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine acceptance among Mexican adults including people with and without HIV, cisgender men who have sex with men (MSM) or with women (MSW), cisgender and transgender women. A computer-assisted,

Canopy uptake dominates nighttime carbonyl sulfide fluxes in a boreal forest [PDF]

, 2017
Nighttime vegetative uptake of carbonyl sulfide (COS) can exist due to the incomplete closure of stomata and the light independence of the enzyme carbonic anhydrase, which complicates the use of COS as a tracer for gross primary productivity (GPP).

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...
