Functional characterization of Synechococcus amylosucrase and fructokinase encoding genes discovers two novel actors on the stage of cyanobacterial sucrose metabolism
(Elsevier Ireland, 2014-07)
Plants and most cyanobacteria metabolize sucrose (Suc) with a similar set of enzymes. In Synechococcus sp. PCC 7002, a marine cyanobacterium strain, genes involved in Suc synthesis (spsA and sppA) have been characterized; ...
Wounding increases glycolytic but not soluble sucrolytic activities in stored sugarbeet root

Lipoic acid prevents fructose-induced changes in liver carbohydrate metabolism: Role of oxidative stress
(Elsevier Science, 2013-12)
Fructose administration rapidly induces oxidative stress that triggers compensatory hepatic metabolic changes. We evaluated the effect of an antioxidant, R/S-α-lipoic acid on fructose-induced oxidative stress and carbohydrate ...
Sucrose metabolizing enzymes in cell suspension cultures of Bauhinia forficata, Curcuma zedoaria and Phaseolus vulgaris.
(Pesquisa Agropecuaria Brasileira, Brasilia, v.36, n.9, p.1085-92, set. 2001., 2011)
Structural and functional roles of Cys-238 and Cys-295 in Escherichia coli phosphofructokinase-2
(2003)
Modification of Escherichia coli phosphofructokinase-2 (Pfk-2) with pyrene maleimide (PM) results in a rapid inactivation of the enzyme. The loss of enzyme activity correlates with the incorporation of 2 mol of PM/mol of ...
N -Acetyl- l -Cysteine treatment efficiently prevented pre-diabetes and inflamed-dysmetabolic liver development in hypothalamic obese rats
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2018-04)
AimHypothalamic obese rats are characterized by pre-diabetes, dyslipidemia, hyperadiposity, inflammation and, liver dysmetabolism with oxidative stress (OS), among others. We studied endocrine-metabolic dysfunctions and, ...
Cacao extract enriched in polyphenols prevents endocrine-metabolic disturbances in a rat model of prediabetes triggered by a sucrose rich diet
(Elsevier, 2020-01)
Ethnopharmacological relevance: Cocoa extracts rich in polyphenols are used as potential agent for treating diabetes. Cocoa polyphenols have been proved to ameliorate important hallmarks of type-2 diabetes (T2D). They can ...
Chronic glucocorticoid-rich milieu and liver dysfunction
(Hindaw Publishing Corporation, 2016-09)
We investigated the impact of chronic hypercorticosteronemia (due to neonatal monosodium L-glutamate, MSG, and treatment) on liver oxidative stress (OS), inflammation, and carbohydrate/lipid metabolism in adult male rats. ...
High-fructose consumption and metabolic diseases
(2012-03-01)
Renewed interest in the study of fructose arose after a number of papers on the harmful effects of ingesting high-fructose diets were published. Fructose intake has increased significantly in the United States and worldwide ...
