Alteration of SH-group Contents in Red Beet Roots and Vacuoles under Osmotic Stress [PDF]

Journal of Stress Physiology & Biochemistry, 2013
The content of sulfhydryl groups in homogenate of red beets and isolated vacuoles under the conditions of osmotic stress was determined. It was demonstrated that the common content of sulfhydryl groups in the isolated vacuoles was 2.4 times higher, than ...

Found art: the yeast vacuole [PDF]

Autophagy, 2019
Over the past 9 years I have worked with artists who have used various media to portray the process of autophagy. This has included paintings, protein music, a piano composition, a wood sculpture, a quilt, and a dance. Here, I describe a two-part project that focuses on the vacuole/lysosome.

Recombinant Proteins: A Molecular Tool to Understand Marine Adhesion and to Advance Biomaterials

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The production of recombinant proteins represents a fundamental step in the characterisation of marine invertebrate adhesives and in the development of bio‐inspired glues. The association of these proteins with other components such as ions, proteins, polysaccharides, or polymers enables the fabrication of biomaterials for various healthcare ...

The Shigella flexneri type 3 secretion system is required for tyrosine kinase-dependent protrusion resolution, and vacuole escape during bacterial dissemination. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Shigella flexneri is a human pathogen that triggers its own entry into intestinal cells and escapes primary vacuoles to gain access to the cytosolic compartment.

Shedding Light on the Cellular Uptake Mechanisms of Bioactive Glass Nanoparticles as Controlled Intracellular Delivery Platforms: A Review of the Recent Literature

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the main uptake pathways of bioactive glass nanoparticles (BGNs) and their intracellular localization, highlighting that BGNs are mainly internalized and entrapped within endosomes/lysosomes. Strategies for controlled intracellular ion release, with implications for targeted modulation of cell behavior, are discussed. The need to

Elastic Energy Storage in Biological Materials: Internal Stresses and Their Functionality

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Harnessing and storing internally generated elastic energy is a clever strategy by biological materials to perform functions like shape transformation, movement, and predation. This review explores how biological systems manipulate mechanisms like atomic or protein integration into minerals, protein conformational shifts, phase transitions, and osmotic

Aquaporin-4 expression in distal myopathy with rimmed vacuoles

BMC Neurology, 2012
Background Distal myopathy with rimmed vacuoles/hereditary inclusion body myopathy is clinically characterized by the early involvement of distal leg muscles. The striking pathological features of the myopathy are muscle fibers with rimmed vacuoles.

Lysosomes appear as the auto-fluorescent vacuoles in Dictyostelium discoideum cells

Pteridines, 2016
Dictyostelium discoideum cells contain auto-fluorescent vacuoles. To determine the identity of these vacuoles, the fluorescent dye 4-nitro-7-(1-piperazinyl)-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (NBD-PZ) was used to stain the lysosomes in D. discoideum cells. Neither the
