Potencial quimiopreventivo de lipídios estruturados obtidos da Tributirina e Tricaprilina na fase de promoção da hepatocarcinogênese experimental

A quimioprevenção do câncer refere-se ao uso de compostos naturais ou sintéticos para prevenir o desenvolvimento das neoplasias antes do estabelecimento da malignidade. O ácido butirico (AB) atua como um potente quimiopreventivo na hepatocarcinogênese, reduzindo o número e o tamanho de lesões pr...

Síndrome de hipersecreción de lipasa y lesiones óseas en el cáncer de células acinares del páncreas

Rev. med. Chile; 150 (7), 2022
Lipase hypersecretion syndrome (LHS) is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome, associated with acinar cell carcinoma of the pancreas (ACCP) in 10% to 15% of patients. Clinically, LHS manifests itself with the appearance of subcutaneous fibrocystic nodules, associated with trophic changes in the overlying skin, ...

Characterization of highly stable extracellular lipase from the extremely halophilic archaeon Halolamina sp

Biosci. j. (Online); 38 (), 2022
Enzymes of the archaea living in extreme environments are resistant to the challenging conditions. Lipase is among the important enzymes used in the industry and agriculture. In this study, the extracellular lipase from extremely halophilic archaeon Halolamina sp. was characterized for the first time. Op...

Eurytrema coelomaticum infection: correlation between parasite burden and impairment of pancreatic exocrine enzyme secretion

Ciênc. rural (Online); 52 (2), 2022
Eurytrema coelomaticum is a trematode reported in the pancreatic ducts of ruminants. It is conjectured that may cause disorders in the pancreas, as well as digestive and metabolic processes dependent on them. This study, determined if there is an impairment of exocrine pancreatic function, and correlated...

Extracellular expression in Bacillus subtilis of a thermostable Geobacillus stearothermophilus lipase

BACKGROUND The extracellular expression of enzymes in a secretion host such as Bacillus subtilis is a useful strategy in reducing the cost of downstream processing of industrial enzymes. Here, we present the first report of the successful extracellular expression in Bacillus subtilis WB800 of Geobacillus...

Inhibition of α-glucosidase, pancreatic lipase, and antioxidant property of Myrcia hatschbachii D. Legrand containing gallic and ellagic acids

Several species of the Myrcia genus have been used in folk medicine to treat diabetes. Therefore, the aim of this work was to investigate the inhibitory activity of α-glucosidase and pancreatic lipase in the crude extract (EBF) and in the ethyl acetate fraction (FFA) of Myrcia hatschbachii, as well as t...

Ansa pancreática: desafio no diagnóstico etiológico em paciente jovem com pancreatite grave

A ansa pancreática é uma variação anatômica rara dos ductos pancreáticos. Consiste numa comunicação entre o ducto pancreático principal (Wirsung) e o ducto pancreático acessório (Santorini). Recentemente, estudos têm demonstrado estar essa variação anatômica implicada como fator predisp...

Caracterización, clasificación y usos de las enzimas lipasas en la producción industrial
Characterization, classification and uses of lipase enzymes in industrial production

Introducción: La bioquímica, como ciencia particular dentro de las ciencias médicas, ha tenido un gran desarrollo. Las enzimas lipasas se obtienen de organismos vivos que abundan en la naturaleza y han sido utilizadas en la producción de alimentos, jabones, detergentes, aceites y otros productos ind...

Enzymatic synthesis of coconut oil based wax esters by immobilized lipase EQ3 and commercial lipozyme RMIM

BACKGROUND: Liquid wax esters are widely used in cosmetic as well as pharmaceutical and other industries. The demand of organic and natural products is increasing nowadays. Coconut oil contains benefit fatty acids and has been mainly used for oil-based and moisturizer products. Liquid wax esters from coc...
