BIOACTIVE INGREDIENTS IN TRADITIONAL FERMENTED FOOD CONDIMENTS: EMERGING PRODUCTS FOR PREVENTION AND TREATMENT OF OBESITY AND TYPE 2 DIABETES

Bioactive Ingredients in Traditional Fermented Food Condiments: Emerging Products for Prevention and Treatment of Obesity and Type 2 Diabetes

Obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D) are severe metabolic diseases due to inappropriate lifestyle and genetic factors and their prevention/treatment cause serious problems.Therefore, searching for effective and safe approaches to control obesity and T2D is an essential challenge.This study presents the knowledge regarding the possible use of tradition

3D analysis of the TCR/pMHCII complex formation in monkeys vaccinated with the first peptide inducing sterilizing immunity against human malaria.

T-cell receptor gene rearrangements were studied in Aotus monkeys developing high antibody titers and sterilizing immunity against the Plasmodium falciparum malaria parasite upon vaccination with the modified synthetic peptide 24112, which was identified in the Merozoite Surface Protein 2 (MSP-2) and is known to bind to HLA-DRbeta1*0403 Riding Trou

HOPE-SIM, a cryo-structured illumination fluorescence microscopy system for accurately targeted cryo-electron tomography

Abstract Cryo-focused ion beam (cryo-FIB) milling technology has been developed for the fabrication of cryo-lamella of frozen native specimens for study by in situ cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET).However, the precision of the target of interest is still one of the major bottlenecks limiting application.Here, we have developed a cryo-correlative

Texture analysis using proton density and T2 relaxation in patients with histological usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) or nonspecific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP).

The purpose of our study was to assess proton density (PD) and T2 relaxation time of usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) and nonspecific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP) and to evaluate their utility in differentiating the two patterns.Furthermore, we aim to investigate whether these two parameters could help differentiate active-inflammatory and stabl
