Wishart, David S., Shrivastava, Savita, Ellison, Michael, Guo, Anchi, Cruz, Joseph, van Domselaar, Gary, O'Neill, Brian, Stothard, Paul
BacMap is an interactive visual database containing fully labeled, zoomable and searchable chromosome maps from more than 170 bacterial (archaebacterial and eubacterial) species. It uses a recently developed visualization tool (CGView) to generate high-resolution circular genome maps from...

Wishart, David S., Cruz, Joseph, Tang, Peter, Stothard, Paul, Zhou, Jianjun, Berjanskii, Mark, Liang, Yongjie, Lu, Paul, Zhou, You, Lin, Gouhui, MacDonell, Cam
Originally released in 2005, BacMap is an electronic, interactive atlas of fully sequenced bacterial genomes. It contains fully labeled, zoomable and searchable chromosome maps for essentially all sequenced prokaryotic (archaebacterial and eubacterial) species. Each map can be zoomed to the level...

Bacterial response to siderophore and quorum-sensing chemical signals in the seawater microbial community
Download2001
Background Oceans are iron-deficient and nutrient-poor environments. These conditions impart limitations on our understanding of and our ability to identify microorganisms from the marine environment. However, less of knowledge on the influence of siderophores and N-acyl homoserinelactone as...

Beneficial effects of simulated gastro-intestinal digests of fried egg and its fractions on blood pressure, plasma lipids and oxidative stress in spontaneously hypertensive rats
Download2014
Majumder, Kaustav, Jahandideh, Forough, Morton, Jude S., Davidge, Sandra T., Kaufman, Susan, Chakrabarti, Subhadeep, Panahi, Sareh, Wu, Jianping
Background We have previously characterized several antihypertensive peptides in simulated digests of cooked eggs and showed blood pressure lowering property of fried whole egg digest. However, the long-term effects of this hydrolysate and its fractions on blood pressure are not known. Therefore,...

Betulinic acid prevents alcohol-induced liver damage by improving the antioxidant system in mice
Download2014-01-01
Yi, Jine, Xia, Wei, Wu, Jianping, Yuan, Liyun, Wu, Jing, Tu, Di, Fang, Jun, Tan, Zhuliang
Betulinic acid (BA), a pentacyclic lupane-type triterpene, has a wide range of bioactivities. The main objective of this work was to evaluate the hepatoprotective activity of BA and the potential mechanism underlying the ability of this compound to prevent liver damage induced by alcohol in vivo....

Bioactive peptides in hydrolysates of bovine and camel milk proteins: A review of studies on peptides that reduce blood pressure, improve glucose homeostasis, and inhibit pathogen adhesion
Download2024-01-01
Althnaibat, Rami M., Bruce, Heather L., Wu, Jianping, Gänzle, Michael G.
The prevalence of diet-related chronic conditions including hypertension and cardiovascular disease, and diabetes mellitus has increased worldwide. Research regarding the use of food-derived bioactive peptides as an alternative strategy to mitigate chronic diseases is on the rise. Milk is...

Chakrabarti, Subhadeep, Wu, Jianping
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) such as myocardial infarction and stroke are a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Impairment of the normal vasorelaxant functions of the vascular endothelium, termed endothelial dysfunction; appear to underlie the pathogenesis of CVD. Endothelial...

Sabaou, Nasserdine, Strelkov, Stephen E., Toumatia, Omrane, Meklat, Atika, Holtz, Michael D., Bouras, Noureddine
A new actinomycete strain designated PP14 was isolated from a Canadian soil sample, by a dilution agar plating method using a chitin-vitamins B medium supplemented with different antibiotics as selective agents. This actinomycete produced antimicrobial substances and exhibited strong antifungal...
