Opposing Roles of Calcium and Intracellular ATP on Gating of the Purinergic P2X2 Receptor Channel
(MDPI, Basel, 2018)
P2X2 receptors (P2X2R) exhibit a slow desensitization during the initial ATP application and a progressive, calcium-dependent increase in rates of desensitization during repetitive stimulation. This pattern is observed in ...
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 ...
Physiological and cell ultrastructure disturbances in wheat seedlings generated by Chenopodium murale hairy root exudate
(Springer Wien, Wien, 2018)
Chenopodium murale L. is an invasive weed species significantly interfering with wheat crop. However, the complete nature of its allelopathic influence on crops is not yet fully understood. In the present study, the focus ...
Can untreated PKU patients escape from intellectual disability? A systematic review
(BMC, London, 2018)
Background: Phenylketonuria (PKU) is often considered as the classical example of a genetic disorder in which severe symptoms can nowadays successfully be prevented by early diagnosis and treatment. In contrast, untreated ...
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 ...
Microbial Production of Violacein and Process Optimization for Dyeing Polyamide Fabrics With Acquired Antimicrobial Properties
(Frontiers Media Sa, Lausanne, 2018)
In the present study, crude bacterial extract containing violacein is investigated for the preparation of antimicrobial polyamide fabrics. The optimal culture conditions of Janthinobacterium lividum (JL) for maximum biomass ...
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 ...
GABA-Producing Natural Dairy Isolate From Artisanal Zlatar Cheese Attenuates Gut Inflammation and Strengthens Gut Epithelial Barrier in vitro
(Frontiers Media Sa, Lausanne, 2019)
Probiotic bacteria are recognized for their health-promoting properties, including maintenance of gut epithelial integrity and host immune system homeostasis. Taking into account the beneficial health-promoting effects of ...
