Mineral waters of Serbia and development of phototrophic microbial communities near points of emergence and on wellheads
(Karst Research Inst Zrc Sazu, Postojna, 2017)
Phototropic microorganisms in thermal mats had not attracted enough attention in Serbia in the past. The research presented in this paper is the first to address biofilms at selected occurrences of mineral water in Serbia ...
Formation of silica aggregates in sorghum root endodermis is predetermined by cell wall architecture and development
(Oxford Univ Press, Oxford, 2017)
Background and Aims Deposition of silica in plant cell walls improves their mechanical properties and helps plants to withstand various stress conditions. Its mechanism is still not understood and silica-cell wall interactions ...
Alpha-1-Antitrypsin Antagonizes Cisplatin-Induced Cytotoxicity in Prostate Cancer (PC3) and Melanoma Cancer (A375) Cell Lines
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2017)
Increased circulating alpha-1-antitrypsin (AAT) correlates with cancer stage/aggressiveness, but its role in cancer biology is unclear. We revealed antagonistic effect of AAT to cisplatin-induced cytotoxicity in prostate ...
Structure and function of PspA and Vipp1 N-terminal peptides: Insights into the membrane stress sensing and mitigation
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2017)
The phage shock protein (Psp) response maintains integrity of the inner membrane (IM) in response to extracytoplasmic stress conditions and is widely distributed amongst enterobacteria. Its central component PspA, a member ...
Oral administration of probiotic Lactobacillus paraplantarum BGCG11 attenuates diabetes-induced liver and kidney damage in rats
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2017)
The aim of this study was to assess the effect of the probiotic Lactobacillus paraplantarum BGCG11 on the regulatory pathways that underlie the defense responses of the liver and kidney in diabetic rats. Probiotic-treated ...
Identification and validation of differentially expressed transcripts by RNA-sequencing of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) lung tissue from patients with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
(Biomed Central Ltd, London, 2017)
Background: Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) is a lethal lung disease of unknown etiology. A major limitation in transcriptomic profiling of lung tissue in IPF has been a dependence on snap-frozen fresh tissues (FF). ...
Probiotics or pro-healers: the role of beneficial bacteria in tissue repair
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2017)
Probiotics are beneficial microorganisms, known to exert numerous positive effects on human health, primarily in the battle against pathogens. Probiotics have been associated with improved healing of intestinal ulcers, and ...
Use of Wilms Tumor 1 Gene Expression as a Reliable Marker for Prognosis and Minimal Residual Disease Monitoring in Acute Myeloid Leukemia With Normal Karyotype Patients
(CIG Media Group, Lp, Dallas, 2017)
The aim of the present study was to test the possibility for the usage of the WT1 (Wilms tumor 1) expression level as an additional biomarker for prognosis and minimal residual disease (MRD) monitoring in patients with ...
Negative Regulation of Violacein Biosynthesis in Chromobacterium violaceum
(Frontiers Media Sa, Lausanne, 2017)
In Chromobacteium violaceum, the purple pigment violacein is under positive regulation by the N-acylhomoserine lactone CviI/R quorum sensing system and negative regulation by an uncharacterized putative repressor. In this ...
Importance of pharmacogenetic markers in the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene during methotrexate treatment in pediatric patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia
(Srpsko biološko društvo, Beograd, i dr., 2017)
Despite remarkable progress in survival of children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) which has reached about 85%, early toxicity and relapse rate remain issues that need to to be resolved. Genetic variants are ...
