Skeletal muscle anabolism is a side effect of therapy with the MEK inhibitor: Selumetinib in patients with cholangiocarcinoma
Download2012
Ghosh, Sunita, Doyle, L. Austin, Baracos, Vickie E., Prado, Carla M., Sawyer, Michael B., Bekaii-Saab, Tanios, Shrestha, Suraj
background: Cancer cachexia is characterised by skeletal muscle wasting; however, potential for muscle anabolism in patients with advanced cancer is unproven. methods: Quantitative analysis of computed tomography images for loss/gain of muscle in cholangiocarcinoma patients receiving selumetinib...

Dodson, Michael V., Hausman, Gary J., Guan, LeLuo, Du, Min, Rasmussen, Theodore P., Poulos, Sylvia P., Mir, Priya, Bergen, Werner G., Fernyhough, Melinda E., McFarland, Douglas C., Rhoads, Roberts P., Soret, Beatrice, Reecy, James M., Velleman, Sandra G., Jiang, Zhihua
Skeletal muscle stem cells from food-producing animals are of interest to agricultural life scientists seeking to develop a better understanding of the molecular regulation of lean tissue (skeletal muscle protein hypertrophy) and intramuscular fat (marbling) development. Enhanced understanding of...

Small intestine early innate immunity response during intestinal colonization by Escherichia coli depends on its extra-intestinal virulence status
Download2016
Denamur, Erick, Tourret, Jérôme, Dion, Sara, Willing, Benjamin P., Wachtel, Sarah, Finlay, B. Brett, Dufour, Nicolas, Croxen, Matthew A.
Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) strains live as commensals in the digestive tract of the host, but they can also initiate urinary tract infections. The aim of this work was to determine how a host detects the presence of a new UPEC strain in the digestive tract. Mice were orally challenged...

Spectroscopic characterization of recombinant dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase and its site-directed mutants
Download1995
Korotchkina, Lioubov G., Hyatt, Susannah L., Kav, Nataraj N. V., Liu, Te-Chung, Patel, Mulchand S.
In this paper, we report the overexpression and single-step purification of recombinant wild-type and site-directed mutants of human dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase in Escherichia coli and detailed spectroscopic studies aimed at understanding the catalytic mechanism of this enzyme. One mutation...

Stability of anthocyanins in frozen and freeze-dried raspberries during long-term storage: In relation to glass transition
Download2011-01-01
Syamaladevi, Roopesh M., Sablani, Shyam S., Tang, Juming, Powers, Joseph, Swanson, Barry G.
Abstract: Anthocyanins, natural plant pigments in the flavonoid group, are responsible for the red color and some of the nutraceutical benefits of raspberries. This study explores anthocyanin degradation in frozen and freeze-dried raspberries during storage in relation to glass transition...

Syamaladevi, Roopesh M., Sablani, Shyam S., Tang, Juming, Powers, Joseph, Swanson, Barry G.
Thermal transitions of freeze-dried raspberry powder (Rubus idaeus) were analyzed by using differential scanning calorimetry. Freeze-dried raspberry powders containing unfreezable and freezable water were examined to develop the state diagram of raspberry. The state diagram of freeze-dried...

Structural studies on the folded domain of the human prion protein bound to the Fab fragment of the antibody POM1
Download2012
Kav, Nat N. V., Polymenidou, Magdalini , Rahman, Muhammad H., Aguzzi, Adriano, Swayampakula, Mridula , James, Michael N. G., Baral, Pravas K., Wieland, Barbara
Prion diseases are neurodegenerative diseases characterized by the conversion of the cellular prion protein PrPc into a pathogenic isoform PrPsc. Passive immunization with antiprion monoclonal antibodies can arrest the progression of prion diseases. Here, the crystal structure of the Fab fragment...

Structural variant detection by large-scale sequencing reveals new evolutionary evidence on breed divergence between Chinese and European pigs
Download2016
Liu, Jian-Feng, Fan, Ziyao, Li, Junhui, Wang, Jiafu, Wang, Zhiquan, Zhao, Pengju, Kang, Huimin, Zhang, Qin, Yin, Zongjun, Wang, Haifei
In this study, we performed a genome-wide SV detection among the genomes of thirteen pigs from diverse Chinese and European originated breeds by next genetation sequencing, and constrcuted a single-nucleotide resolution map involving 56,930 putative SVs. We firstly identified a SV hotspot...

Structure and function relationships of the binding of β- and ɑ-galactosylated oligosaccharides to K88 fimbriae of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli
Download2018-01-01
Yan, Ya Lu, Gänzle, Michael G.
Chitosan-oligosaccharides (COS) are suitable acceptors for β-galactosidase, and galactosylated-COS prevent adhesion of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) K88 to porcine erythrocytes. The structure and functional relationship of oligosaccharide binding to ETEC K88 fimbriae was investigated....

Structure-function relationships of antifungal monohydroxy unsaturated fatty acids (HUFA) of plant and bacterial origin
Download2020-08-01
Liang, Nuanyi, Dacko, Andrea, Tan, Alexander K., Xiang, Sheng, Curtis, Jonathan M., Gänzle, Michael G.
This study investigated the relationships between the structures of hydroxy unsaturated fatty acids (HUFA) and their antifungal activities. Structurally diverse HUFA, including four monohydroxy-18:1 isomers, two monohydroxy 18:2 isomers and two monohydroxy 18:2 isomers were extracted from seeds...
