Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Mechanisms for Altered Glucose Homeostasis in HIV InfectionPaula W. HruzA complete understanding of the molecular mechanisms leading to HIV-associated insulin resistance remains elusive. Complex interrelationships between genetic predisposition, disease-related body changes and multidrug therapy all contribute to alterations in glucose homeostasis. These abnormalities can be differentiated between acute and reversible changes directly induced by HAART medications and more chronic and less reversible changes due to the development of lipodystrophy … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,877 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFat Body Cells of Gynes and Queens of Four Species of Fungus Growing Ants (Hymenoptera: Formicidae: Attini); Relationship with the VitellogenesisG. C. Roma, M. I. Camargo-Mathias, O. C. BuenoThe morphometric analysis of fat body cells of gynes of Cyphomyrmex rimosus and Mycetarotes parallelus and queens of Acromyrmex disciger and Atta laevigata revealed significant differences in area of parietal and perivisceral trophocytes in all studied species. This was also observed for parietal and perivisceral oenocytes. No differences, however, were observed when the areas of oenocytes of gynes are compared. … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 7,781 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Postgenomic Era: Transcriptomic as the New Paradigm of LifeBruno Giardina, Marcella Renis, Vito Latora, Salvatore MusumeciNow that complete genome sequences are available for a variety of organism, the elucidation of single gene function involved in the metabolism, includes necessarily a better understanding of the cellular responses on all levels of gene products, mRNA, proteins and metabolites. Such knowledge’s growth is essential since the observable properties of living organisms, so called phenotypes, are the results of … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,822 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Changing Pathology of NeuroAIDS Associated with Drug Abuse in the Era of HAARTE Bell Jeanne, C. Anthony Iain, Simmonds PeterCompliance with highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) arrests HIV induced immune collapse and reduces the prevalence of severe central nervous system (CNS) complications, including HIV associated dementia and encephalitis. However minor cognitive disorders remain common and recent autopsy studies have demonstrated the presence of subtle neuropathological abnormalities in HAART treated individuals, including persistent neuroinflammation and enhanced deposition in the brain … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,872 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy of the Mandibular Glands of Ant Workers Atta sexdens rubropilosa (Forel, 1908) (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) Focusing the Ultrastructural CytochemistryLorena Favaro Pavon, Maria Izabel Camargo MathiasThe mandibular glands of hymenopterans in general are paired structures located on each side of the head. These glands possess an excretory duct located at the internal surface of the mandible articulation, through which these glands release the secretion they produce. The mandibular glands of the minima, media and soldier worker of the ant Atta sexdens rubropilosa were analyzed by … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,643 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Feasibility Study of Challenges and Opportunities in Computational Biology: A Malaysian PerspectiveR. J.A. Richard, N. SriraamThe term computational biology refers to the knowledge derived from a computer analysis of biological data that includes identification of genes in DNA sequence of different organisms, prediction of structural and functional mechanism of proteins, feature extraction and classification of genomics and proteomics. Computational biology is a rapidly developing branch of science and is highly interdisciplinary, using techniques and Concepts … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,924 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSearching of Main Cause Leading to Severe Influenza A Virus Mutations and Consequently to Influenza Pandemics/EpidemicsGuang Wu, Shaomin YanThe unpredictable mutations in the proteins from influenza A virus lead to the great difficulty in prevention of possible outbreak of bird flu and pandemic/epidemic of influenza. This unpredictability is due to the fact that we know little about the causes that lead to the mutations. In three of our recent studies on the hemagglutinins from influenza A virus, we … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 9,970 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInduction of Caspase-dependant Apoptosis by Enterovirus 70 in Human Lens Epithelial SRA01/04 CellsDequan Chen, Chris Duggan, Donald E. Texada et al.Enterovirus 70 (EV70), an etiological agent of acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis (AHC), induces apoptosis in human Chang’s conjunctival (HCC) cells. EV70 is also able to infect and replicate in some other human cells such as human lens epithelial SRA01/04 cells and U937 cells. EV70 infection was found to induce apoptosis in SRA01/04 cells. During EV70-induced apoptosis of SRA01/04 cells, the expression … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,636 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExpression, Purification and Activity Assay of Two New Recombinant Antagonists of Fibrinogen ReceptorJianbo Yang, Jia Yao, Kun Yang et al.The gene sequence of Decorsin which is extracted from a kind of North American leeches was synthesized. Two recombinant proteins, Annexin V plus Decorsin (AnnV-D39) and Annexin V plus the carboxyl terminal 27 amino acid residues of Decorsin(AnnV-D27), were constructed. And a 10 amino acids linker peptide of GGGGSGGGGS was inserted between Annexin V and Decorsin in AnnV-D39. Using pET-28(a+) … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,913 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effects of Chinese Traditional Processing Method on Components in Semen Sinapis AlbaeLifang Liu, Hui Zhou, Suqin Sun et al.Techniques of infrared (IR) spectrophotometry, High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and HPLC-mass spectrometry are employed in this study to reveal the changes of the components in Semen sinapis Albae during the Chinese traditional processing. While the degradation of proteins and polysaccarides can be observed, sinapine in this drug can be known to decompose immediately after 15 mins during processing.
