Val247Leu polymorphism of beta(2) glycoprotein 1 gene may justify the genesis of anti beta(2)GP1 antibodies and Antiphospholipid Syndrome in Multibacillary Leprosy
(SOC BRASILEIRA DERMATOLOGIA, 2009)
BACKGROUND - Multibacillary (MB) leprosy may be manifested with antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL), among which anti-beta(2)GP1 (beta(2)-glycoprotein 1). High titers of aPL are associated with APS (Antiphospholipid Syndrome), ...
Increased vascular contractility and oxidative stress in beta(2)-adrenoceptor knockout mice: the role of NADPH oxidase
(KARGERBASEL, 2012)
Background/Aims: beta(2)-adrenoceptor (beta(2)-AR) activation induces smooth muscle relaxation and endothelium-derived nitric oxide (NO) release. However, whether endogenous basal beta(2)-AR activity controls vascular redox ...
Involvement of TGF-beta(s)/T(beta)Rs system in tumor progression of murine mammary adenocarcinomas
(Springer, 2003-08)
We studied the expression of TGF-beta/T(beta)R system and its biological role in tumor development, in M3 and MM3 murine mammary adenocarcinomas with different metastasizing capability and in LM3 and LMM3 derived cell ...
Production of Cellulolytic Enzymes by Anaerobic Fungi Cultivated in Different Conditions
(BERKELEY ELECTRONIC PRESS, 2009)
The present paper studies the influence of different nutrients for the production of two cellulolytic enzymes: endo beta-1.4 glucanase and exo beta-1.4 glucanase by anaerobic fungi taken from cow rumen, that were fed a ...
Proinflammatory stimuli are needed for induction of microglial cell-mediated A beta PP244-C and A beta-neurotoxicity in hippocampal cultures
(IOS PRESS, 2008)
Amyloid-beta plaques and neurodegeneration are hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease, where glial cells are responsible for sustained neuroinflammation. Here we show that hippocampal-microglia co-cultures exposed to proinflammatory ...
Beta-lactamase detection in Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative Staphylococcus isolated from bovine mastitis
(Colégio Brasileiro de Patologia Animal - CBPA, 2014-04-01)
The objectives of the study were to evaluate the presence/production of beta-lactamases by both phenotypic and genotypic methods, verify whether results are dependent of bacteria type (Staphylococcus aureus versus ...
Cell-associated acid beta-xylosidase production by Penicillium sclerotiorum
(Elsevier B.V., 2013)
Water buffaloes (Bubalus bubalis) only have A2A2 genotype for beta-casein
(2021-12-01)
Beta-casein is a milk protein that has two variants: A1 and A2. Some individuals have difficulties digesting beta-casein A1, which can cause gastrointestinal disorders. A2 milk has emerged as an alternative. This milk only ...
Reduced cytokine production by glycogen-elicited peritoneal cells from diabetic rats
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2008)
IL-1 beta, TNF-alpha, cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant-2 alpha/beta, and IL-10 measurements were performed in elicited peritoneal cells from control, diabetic, and insulin-treated diabetic rats. Production/liberation ...
Resistance to tetracycline and β-lactams and distribution of resistance markers in enteric microorganisms and pseudomonads isolated from the oral cavity
(Universidade de São Paulo (USP), Faculdade de Odontologia de Bauru, 2009-12-01)
This study evaluated the occurrence of enteric bacteria and pseudomonads resistant to tetracycline and beta-lactams in the oral cavity of patients exhibiting gingivitis (n=89); periodontitis (n=79), periodontally healthy ...
