Integrin signaling is critical for many biological functions including cell survival, cell migration, development, immunity and wound healing. Integrins perform their function through a structural change that is propagated from the...
Coral allene oxide synthase (cAOS), a hemoprotein with sequence similarity to bovine liver catalase (BLC), is the N-terminal domain of a fusion protein with an 8R-lipoxygenase in coral Plexaura homomalla. A radical having a g-value of 2...
The antigenic properties of the low molecular weight (LMW) proteins, polypeptides and peptides of several plant foods were evaluated. Trichloroacetic acid (0.6 M) was used to isolate the non-proteins nitrogen fraction of selected tree...
The food matrices in the category of dairy, nuts, vegetables, legumes, cereal, cereal products, fruits and confectionery, salt, seeds, tea and color were analyzed for the matrix effect. Most of the food matrices under the category of...
In Plasmodium falciparum-infected children, the relationships between blood cell histopathology, blood plasma components, development of immunocompetence, and disease severity remain poorly understood. This investigation relates levels...
Cell adhesion assemblies occur at sites where cells either contact each other or components related to the extracellular matrix. They provide the structural integrity needed to support nonmigrating cells via a host of transmembraneous...
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection leads to acute and chronic liver disease for thousands of people every year. With the absence of an effective treatment method, new classes of anti-HCV therapies are needed. Cyclosporine (CsA) and its...
Plant seed flours are applied in several foods; still an extensive comparative study of seed flour functional properties has not been performed to date. Purpose of the current investigation was to assess functional properties of 16 full...
Almonds (Prunus dulcis L.) are the most widely consumed tree nuts in the USA besides USA also being the number one global producer of almonds. Although almonds can be consumed without any adverse effects by the majority of the population...
Tree nut and peanut allergies affect up to 1.4% US population. Upon exposure, sensitive individuals may experience adverse reactions, including fatal anaphylaxis, to tree nut and peanut allergens. Currently, there is no cure for food...
The free energy yield from ATP hydrolysis is directly related to the [ATP]/ ([ADP] [Pi]) ratio within any given cell, and it has long been clear that cells can not maintain functionality when this ratio undergoes a significant change....
