Ornithine Transcarbamylase Deficiency in Iranian Children [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Public Health, 2003
Ammonia is a toxic material for mammalians. It is detoxificated and converted to urea in the urea cycle in liver. Each defect in the urea cycle cause increase in blood ammonia level.

Hepatocyte-Specific Knock-Out of Nfib Aggravates Hepatocellular Tumorigenesis via Enhancing Urea Cycle

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2022
Nuclear Factor I B (NFIB) has been reported to promote tumor growth, metastasis, and liver regeneration, but its mechanism in liver cancer is not fully elucidated. The present study aims to reveal the role of NFIB in hepatocellular carcinogenesis. In our

Plasma urea cycle metabolite levels and the risk of moyamoya disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
Background and purposeUrea cycle metabolites are expected to be the biomarkers for cerebrovascular diseases. However, the effects of circulating urea cycle metabolites on the risk of MMD and its subcategories remain unclear.

Structural analysis and molecular substrate recognition properties of Arabidopsis thaliana ornithine transcarbamylase, the molecular target of phaseolotoxin produced by Pseudomonas syringae

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Halo blight is a plant disease that leads to a significant decrease in the yield of common bean crops and kiwi fruits. The infection is caused by Pseudomonas syringae pathovars that produce phaseolotoxin, an antimetabolite which targets arginine ...

Effects of Dufulin on Oxidative Stress and Metabolomic Profile of Tubifex

open access: yesMetabolites, 2021
Dufulin is a highly effective antiviral pesticide used in plants. In this study, a seven-day experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of Dufulin at five different concentrations (1 × 10−4, 1 × 10−3, 1 × 10−2, 0.1, and 1 mg/L) on Tubifex.

The Neighboring Subunit Is Engaged to Stabilize the Substrate in the Active Site of Plant Arginases

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Arginine acts as a precursor of polyamines in plants in two known pathways, agmatine and ornithine routes. It is decarboxylated to agmatine by arginine decarboxylase, and then transformed to putrescine by the consecutive action of agmatine iminohydrolase

Urea Finishing Process: Prilling versus Granulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Solid urea is the largest nitrogen fertilizer product which is produced in two forms of granules and prills. Although the chemical properties of both prills and granules remain similar, their different physical and mechanical properties are ...

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses
