Cross-reactivity between the soybean protein P34 and bovine caseins
(Korean Academy of Asthma, Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2015-01)
Purpose: Soy-based formulas are widely used as dairy substitutes to treat milk allergy patients. However, reactions to soy have been reported in a small proportion of patients with IgE-mediated milk allergies. The aim of ...
C-reactive protein, platelets, and patent ductus arteriosus
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2016-11)
The association between inflammation, platelets, and patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) has not been studied so far. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether C-reactive protein (CRP) is related to low platelet count ...
Arenavirus Z protein as an antiviral target: virus inactivation and protein oligomerization by zinc finger-reactive compounds
(Society for General Microbiology, 2006-05)
Several disulfide-based and azoic compounds have shown antiviral and virucidal properties against arenaviruses in virus yield-inhibition and inactivation assays, respectively. The most effective virucidal agent, the aromatic ...
Effect of the protein corona on the colloidal stability and reactivity of LDH-based nanocarriers
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016-03-15)
The physicochemical properties of drug nanocarriers such as layered double hydroxide nanoparticles (LDH-NPs) determine their circulation times in biological media and their interaction with the targeted cells. Nevertheless, ...
Global Implications of Local Unfolding Phenomena, Probed by Cysteine Reactivity in Human Frataxin
(Nature Publishing Group, 2019-12)
Local events that affect specific regions of proteins are of utmost relevance for stability and function. The aim of this study is to quantitatively assess the importance of locally-focused dynamics by means of a simple ...
Molecular mimicry between Larrea divaricata Cav. plant and a reference strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2020-01)
Currently, the world health sector faces a big problem due to the increase of bacterial strains resistant to antibiotics. In 2017, the World Health Organization reported a list of resistant bacteria, among which Pseudomonas ...
The sunflower TLDc-containing protein HaOXR2 confers tolerance to oxidative stress and waterlogging when expressed in maize plants
(Elsevier Ireland, 2020-08)
The sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) genome encodes six proteins containing a TLDc domain, typical of the eukaryotic OXidation Resistance (OXR) protein family. Expression of sunflower HaOXR2 in Arabidopsis generated plants ...
Sustained Neonatal Inflammation Is Associated with Poor Growth in Infants Born Very Preterm during the First Year of Life
(Mosby-Elsevier, 2019-02)
To determine whether a sustained neonatal systemic inflammatory response was associated with poor postnatal growth among infants born very preterm during the first year of life. Study design: We studied prospectively 192 ...
Production of recombinant NS1 protein and its possible use in encephalitic flavivirus differential diagnosis
(Elsevier Inc, 2019-08-17)
Saint Louis encephalitis virus (SLEV) and West Nile virus (WNV) are two of the major causes of arboviral encephalitis in the Americas. The co-circulation of related flaviviruses in the Americas and prior vaccination against ...
Associations between dietary patterns and serum lipids, apo and C-reactive protein in an adult population: evidence from a multi-city cohort in South America
(Cambridge University Press, 2017-04)
Several previous epidemiological studies from developed countries have shown that an unhealthy dietary pattern affects plasma lipid levels and<br />inflammation biomarkers. We assessed the cross-sectional associations ...
