Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuercetin Promotes the Expression of Genes Involved in Phagocytosis in Bovine NeutrophilsSuphakit Srikok, Sukij Nambut, Kanruethai Wongsawan, Phongsakorn ChuammitriThis study was conducted to explore the effect of Quercetin (QH) on phagocytosis of bovine neutrophils. Neutrophils were isolated from fifteen multiparous Holstein cows. We in vitro treated neutrophils with PBS or 50 µM of Quercetin (QH) or Cytochalasin B (CytB), as phagocytosis inhibitor, prior to monitoring phagocytosis of Escherichia coli by flow cytometry and microscopic examination. Additionally, the expressions … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 2 Aug 2017 · 8,120 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenomic Signature of Respiratory Microbes on Human Scalp EpitheliaBhola Nath Paul, Vani Mishra, Jasmeet Kaur Chhabra, Divyani PaulDespite overlap between habitats occupied by diverse Airborne Respiratory Microbes (ARM), the airway epithelium is known for respiratory microbe infections, human scalp epithelium is undocumented. Analogous to airways epithelium, the scalp epithelium is vulnerable to infection by dormant variants of sensitive microbes that underlie many chronic and relapsing diseases, difficult to eradicate by conventional antibiotics and challenged our ability to … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 11 Sep 2015 · 7,074 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCorrelation Between in vitro Biofilm Formation and Virulence Properties of Extra-Intestinal Pathogenic Escherichia Coli (Expec)Md. Fakruddin, Khanjada Shahnewaj Bin Mannan, Reaz Mohammad MazumdarAbout 65 Escherichia coli strains isolated from extra-intestinal sites were included in this study to determine their biofilm formation capability and virulence properties. About 87% ExPEC isolates were motile and 12.3% were found to be non-motile. Only 12.30% isolates were strong biofilm former (SBF >1.5) whereas 18.46% isolates were non biofilm former. About 71% isolates were capable to express curli … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 14 Jan 2015 · 6,942 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHigh-Yield Production of Bioactive Flatfish (Paralichthys olivaceus) Myostatin-1 Prodomain in Escherichia coliIl Shik Shin, Hyung-Joo Jin, Jeong Hwan Kim et al.Myostatin Propeptide (MstnPro), the N-terminal part of Mstn precursor molecule, binds to Mstn and suppress its activity. Mstn is a potent negative regulator of skeletal muscle growth in many animal species, thus MstnPro has a great potential to be used as an agent to enhance skeletal muscle growth in animal species. Bioactive fish Myostatin-1 Propeptide (Mstn1Pro) proteins were recently expressed … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 20 Sep 2012 · 8,012 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Heirloom Tomato Polyphenol Extracts on Expression of Inflammation Genes in BovineKwaku Gyenai, Nona Mikiashvili, Hamid Ismail, Mulumebet WorkuThe effect of tomato on diseases of economic importance continues to be of broad interest. To evaluate these relationships, the effect of crude extracts of Cherokee purple tomato on pro-inflammatory genes and cytokines were evaluated. Neutrophils from three Holstein Fresian cows were treated with Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS) or E. coli O111-B4 Lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Treated cells were exposed to different … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 25 Aug 2012 · 8,377 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 Glutaredoxin Gene (slr1562) Protects Escherichia coli against Abiotic StressesAhmed Gaber, Salah El-Din El-AssalProblem statement: Glutaredoxins (GRXs) are ubiquitous small heat stable glutathione-dependent oxidoreductase enzymes that play a crucial role in plant development and response to oxidative stress. Approach: Cyanobacterium Synechocystis strain PCC 6803 contains two genes (slr1562 and ssr2061) encoding glutaredoxins. In the present investigation the slr1562 gene (grxC) was isolated and characterized. Results: The results revealed that the amino acid sequence … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 5 Mar 2012 · 7,582 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExpression, Purification and Activity Assay of the Recombinant Protein of Catechol-O-Methyltransferase from Chinese White Shrimp (Fenneropenaeus chinensis)Dian-Xiang Li, Xin-Jun Du, Xiao-Fan Zhao, Jin-Xing WangProblem statement: We have previously cloned a gene of Chinese white shrimp Catechol O-Methyltransferase (designated Fc-COMT) and characterized the gene expression pattern. In this study, expression and purification as well as activity assay of the recombinant Fc-COMT was further conducted. Approach: Using pET-30a (+) as a prokaryotic expression vector, the recombinant Fc- COMT was expressed in the supernatant of Escherichia … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,770 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Aqueous Extract of Aegle marmelos Fruit on Adherence and β-Lactam Resistance of Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli by Down Regulating Outer Membrane Protein CSubramaniya Bharathi Raja, Malliga Raman Murali, G. K. Malathi et al.Problem statement: Enteropathogenic Escherichia Coli (EPEC) continue to be a major health problem, leading to death due to diarrhea, predominantly in children below the age of five. Due to evolution of multi drug resistance in EPEC and side effects caused to host by antibiotics necessitated a search for alternative medicines from medicinal plants. One such medicinal plant used since ancient … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,615 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Site Specific Mutational Effect on Transcription Initiation at Escherichia coli PromoterS. Kannan, M. Krishnan, S. Sundarraj et al.Problem statement: It is widely accepted thought that the weak promoters control the RNA synthesis and play regulatory role in complex genetic networks in bacterial system. An experiment had been designed to address whether mutations in the -16/-17 region affect the rate of transcription at an activator-independent promoter in E. coli or not? Approach: The aim of this study was … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,555 accessesView PDFCite
