Macromolecular biosynthetic parameters and metabolic profile in different life stages of Leishmania braziliensis: Amastigotes as a functionally less active stage
(Public Library of Science, 2017)
It was recently hypothesized that Leishmania amastigotes could constitute a semi-quiescent stage characterized by low replication and reduced metabolic activity. This concept developed with Leishmania (Leishmania) mexicana ...
New insights on the role of lipid metabolism in the metabolic reprogramming of macrophages
(Frontiers Media, 2020)
Macrophage activation is intimately linked to metabolic reprogramming. Inflammatory (M1) macrophages are able to sustain inflammatory responses and to kill pathogens, mostly by relying on aerobic glycolysis and fatty acid ...
RNA-Binding Proteins in Trichomonas vaginalis: Atypical Multifunctional Proteins
(MDPI, 2015)
Iron homeostasis is highly regulated in vertebrates through a regulatory system mediated by RNA-protein interactions between the iron regulatory proteins (IRPs) that interact with an iron responsive element (IRE) located ...
Metabolic response to feeding in Tupinambis merianae: Circadian rhythm and a possible respiratory constraint
(Univ Chicago Press, 2006-05-01)
The diurnal tegu lizard Tupinambis merianae exhibits a marked circadian variation in metabolism that is characterized by the significant increase in metabolism during part of the day. These increases in metabolic rate, ...
Abiotic Stress in Plants and Metabolic Responses
(INTECH, 2013-03-13)
The vast metabolic diversity observed in plants is the direct result of continuous evolutionary
processes. There are more than 200,000 known plant secondary metabolites, representing a
vast reservoir of diverse functions. ...
The energetic cost of mounting an immune response for Pallas's long-tongued bat (Glossophaga soricina)
(Peerj Inc, 2018-06-05)
The acute phase response (APR) is the first line of defense of the vertebrate immune system against pathogens. Mounting an immune response is believed to be energetically costly but direct measures of metabolic rate during ...
Post-treatment vascular leakage and inflammatory responses around brain cysts in porcine neurocysticercosis
(Public Library of Science, 2015)
Cysticidal treatment of neurocysticercosis, an infection of humans and pig brains with Taenia solium, results in an early inflammatory response directed to cysts causing seizures and focal neurological manifestations. ...
Cholesterol metabolism: Increasingly complex El metabolismo del colesterol: Cada vez más complejo
(2012)
Cholesterol is an important molecule; it is necessary for the biosynthesis of steroidal hormones, bile salts and to maintain the stability of biological membranes in animal cells. However, its excess is negative and is ...
Metabolic syndrome markers in wistar rats of different ages
(Biomed Central Ltd., 2012-04-27)
In recent decades, metabolic syndrome has become a public health problem throughout the world. Longitudinal studies in humans have several limitations due to the invasive nature of certain analyses and the size and randomness ...
