Genome sequence of the cheese-starter strain Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. lactis CRL 581
(American Society for Microbiology, 2013-08-08)
We report the genome sequence of Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. lactis CRL 581 (1,911,137 bp, GC 49.7%), a proteolytic strain isolated from a homemade Argentinian hard cheese which has a key role in bacterial nutrition ...
High-throughput analysis of synthetic peptides for the immunodiagnosis of canine visceral leishmaniasis
(Public Library of Science, 2014)
Effect of a Pool of Peptides Isolated from Crotalus durissus terrificus (South American Rattlesnake) Venom on Glucose Levels of Mice Fed on a High-Fat Diet
(SPRINGER, 2011)
This study investigated the effect of a pool of peptides, isolated from venom of Crotalus durissus terrificus (South American rattlesnake) on glucose concentration in C57BL/6 mice fed on a high-fat diet for 6 weeks. The ...
Chronic treatment with atrial natriuretic Peptide in spontaneously hypertensive rats: beneficial renal effects and sex differences.
(Public Library Of Science, 2015-03)
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of chronic treatment with atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) on renal function, nitric oxide (NO) system, oxidative stress, collagen content and apoptosis in ...
Characterization of the pattern of αs1- and β-casein breakdown and release of a bioactive peptide by a cell envelope proteinase from Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. lactis CRL 581
(American Society for Microbiology, 2008-06)
The cell envelope-associated proteinases (CEPs) of the lactobacilli have key roles in bacterial nutrition and contribute to the development of the organoleptic properties of fermented milk products as well, as they can ...
Sex differences in the beneficial cardiac effects of chronic treatment with atrial natriuretic Peptide in spontaneously hypertensive rats.
(Public Library Science, 2013-08)
The aim of this study was to investigate both the effects of chronic treatment with atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) on systolic blood pressure (SBP), cardiac nitric oxide (NO) system, oxidative stress, hypertrophy, fibrosis ...
A synthetic snake-venom-based tripeptide (Glu-Val-Trp) protects PC12 cells from MPP+ toxicity by activating the NGF-signaling pathway
(Elsevier B.V., 2018-06-01)
Venom small peptides that target neurotrophin receptors might be beneficial in neurodegeneration, including Parkinsons disease (PD). Their small size, ease of synthesis, structural stability and target selectivity make ...
Immunomodulation induced by central nervous system-related peptides as a therapeutic strategy for neurodegenerative disorders
(John Wiley & Sons Inc., 2021-10)
Neurodegenerative diseases (NDD) are disorders characterized by the progressive loss of neurons affecting motor, sensory, and/or cognitive functions. The incidence of these diseases is increasing and has a great impact due ...
Characterization of the fruit proteolytic system of Bromelia serra Griseb. (Bromeliaceae) and its application in bioactive peptides release
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2022-01)
A crude extract with proteolytic activity was prepared from edible fruits of Bromelia serra, containing cysteine peptidases with molecular masses between 24.1 and 25.9 kDa. The extract presented an optimal pH range of ...
