Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesAntibacterial Activity of Lotus Leaves (Nelumbo Nucifera) Against Food-Borne PathogensJianxin Chen, Changyin Wang, Xiaotian Chen et al.The antibacterial activity of different solvent extracts from lotus leaves against four food-borne bacteria (Escherichiacoli, Salmonellatyphimurium, Staphyloccocusaureus, Bacillussubtilis) was analyzed by agar diffusion method and the ethanol extract of the plant was found to have the highest antimicrobial activity with the diameter of inhibition zones ranging from 17.2 to 17.8 mm. Then the ethanol extract of lotus leaves were further … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 18 Nov 2014 · 10,152 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesElevated Th17 and IL-23 in Hypertensive Patients with Acutly Increased Blood PressureJunxian Wang, Jianying Chen, Can Chen et al.Problem statement: Many severe cardiovascular complications such as stroke and heart attack can result from acutely increased blood pressure in patients with hypertension. The underlying mechanisms remain unclear despite of extensive study. To characterize the inflammatory mechanisms in hypertensive patients with acute blood pressure increase, we tested circulating Th17 levels, IL-23R expression and plasma levels of IL-17 and IL-23 in … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 21 May 2012 · 7,911 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesHigh Incidence of Disorder-Promoting Amino Acids in the Amino Terminus of Mature Proteins in Bacillus subtilisGuangqiang Wang, Yining Dong, Haiqin Chen et al.Problem statement: Exported polypeptides are usually synthesized as preproteins which are composed with mature domains and the signal peptides. The foreign proteins are usually inefficiently secreted by the aid of signal peptides. Although we know that the mature protein played an important role in the protein export process, we do not know what properties of the mature domains are critical … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 2 Feb 2012 · 8,255 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesMethamphetamine Regulation of Sulfotransferases in Rat Liver and BrainTianyan Zhou, Chaoqun Huang, Yue Chen et al.Problem statement: Sulfotransferases (SULTs) are important phase II drug metabolizing enzymes. They also regulate the biological activities of various hormones. To the best of our knowledge, psychostimulants regulation of SULTs is basically not studied except one article reported that Methamphetamine (METH) treatment induced rat amygdale rSULT1A1 mRNA 4.3 fold by using microarray method to identify a series of candidate genes … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,683 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesEvaluating the Maintenance Performance of the Semiconductor Factories Based on the Analytical Hierarchy Process and Grey Relational AnalysisFei-Long Chen, Yun-Chin ChenProblem statement: Maintenance is an important factor in semiconductor factories, not only because of costs and the need for the uninterrupted operation of semiconductor equipment, but also the time and expense required for maintenance. If maintenance procedures are not performed properly, the equipment will have low efficiency or break down, production capacity will decrease and the company will incur extra … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 7,308 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesEpitope Mapping of Dengue-Virus-Enhancing Monoclonal-Antibody Using Phage Display Peptide LibraryChung-I Rai, Huan-Yao Lei, Yee-Shin Lin et al.The Antibody-Dependent Enhancement (ADE) hypothesis has been proposed to explain why more severe manifestations of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever and Dengue Shock Syndrome (DHF/DSS) occur predominantly during secondary infections of Dengue Virus (DV) with different serotypes. However, the epitopes recognized by these enhancing antibodies are unclear. Recently, antipre-M monoclonal antibody (mAb 70-21), which recognized all DV serotypes without neutralizing activity, were … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 8,453 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesDengue Virus Infection Induced NF-κB-dependent Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor ProductionLien-Cheng Chen, Huey-Wen Shyu, Huan-Yao Lei et al.Dengue virus (DV) infection can cause mild dengue fever or severe dengue hemorrhage fever and dengue shock syndrome. Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is a cytokine that plays an important role in the modulation of inflammatory and immune responses and serum levels of MIF are correlated with disease severity in dengue patients. However, the mechanism that induces MIF production during … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,290 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesThermal Inactivation and Kinetic Characterisation of Peroxidase from Leaves of Brassica chinensis L.Youru Huang, Keyu Rong, Shiman Zhao et al.As one of the perennial vegetable varieties grown in the south of Yangtze River in China, Brassica chinensis L. can be produced and supplied to the market all year round and has high economic value. However, there is little direct literature on postharvest heat treatment of Brassica chinensis L. In this study, Peroxidase (POD) was extracted from Brassica chinensis L. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 2 · 12 Jul 2024 · 4,768 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesOptimization of the Fermentation Medium of Streptomyces ahygroscopicus ΔnysB, a Tetramycin Producing Strain, by the Response Surface MethodXiao Wang, Yao Dong, Xin Chen et al.Streptomyces ahygroscopicus ΔnysB is a genetically engineered strain that produces tetramycin by blocking the competition nystatin pathway. Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was used to optimize its fermentation medium composition. Taking the yield of tetramycin as the response value, the effects of corn starch, glucose, fish peptone, (NH4)2SO4, KH2PO4, and CH3COONa on the yield of tetramycin were investigated by the Plackett-Burman … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 9 Apr 2024 · 5,319 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesSystematic Optimization of Ganoderma lucidum Polysaccharide Fermentation: A Guidance for IndustrializationBin Yang, Junhu Kai, Dehui Dai et al.Ganoderma Lucidum Polysaccharide (GLP) is one of the main active components of G. lucidum and a promising prebiotic for various diseases. Maximizing the production of GLP and minimizing the cost is important for the widespread use of GLP in the food/feed and pharmaceutical industries. The purpose of the present study was to optimize the fermentation condition of a single G. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 4 · 30 Jan 2024 · 5,737 accessesView PDFCite
