Single cell oil production by a novel yeast Trichosporon mycotoxinivorans for complete and ecofriendly valorization of paddy straw

Background: Oleaginous yeasts can be grown on different carbon sources, including lignocellulosic hydrolysate containing a mixture of glucose and xylose. However, not all yeast strains can utilize both the sugars for lipogenesis. Therefore, in this study, efforts were made to isolate dual sugar-utilizing...

Efecto de un desayuno alto en ácidos grasos saturados vs insaturados, sobre las cifras postprandiales de glucosa y lípidos en pacientes diabéticos tipo 2

Introducción: la diabetes tipo 2 es una enfermedad cuya prevalencia se incrementa rápidamente en los países de ingresos medianos y bajos. Siendo los carbohidratos el principal determinante de la glucemia posprandial, se ha evidenciado que existe también influencia de los ácidos grasos sobre las cif...

Síndrome metabólica em adolescentes: comparação entre três diferentes critérios diagnósticos

Rev. enferm. UFPI; 9 (), 2020
Objetivo: verificar a diferença na proporção de adolescentes com síndrome metabólica, identificada por três diferentes critérios diagnósticos. Metodologia: estudo descritivo e transversal, realizado com 716 adolescentes de 10 a 19 anos, de escolas municipais e estaduais da cidade de Picos, Piauí...

Reducción de proteínas y glucosa por reacción de Maillard en leche con lactosa hidrolisada

Rev. chil. nutr; 47 (1), 2020
Se evaluó el efecto de la temperatura sobre la desnaturalización de proteínas y la reacción de Maillard en leche entera y descremada con lactosa hidrolizada. Las leches hidrolizadas se trataron térmicamente a 100, 110, 120 y 130 °C durante un período de 1 hora y se midió la concentración de gluc...

Polycystic ovary syndrome associated with increased adiposity interferes with serum levels of TNF-alpha and IL-6 differently from leptin and adiponectin

ABSTRACT Objective The aim of this study was to investigate polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and to explore the relationship between body fat percentage and metabolic markers. Subjects and methods Sedentary women were assigned to PCOS (N = 60) and CONTROL (N = 60) groups. Each group was subdivided in...

Inhibition of miR-383 suppresses oxidative stress and improves endothelial function by increasing sirtuin 1

Braz. j. med. biol. res; 53 (2), 2020
Previous research has shown that suppression of miR-383 can prevent inflammation of the endothelium, as well as postpone the development of atherosclerosis. However, the role of miR-383 in endothelial cell apoptosis in diabetes remains unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the function of miR...

Comparative study between fructose 1-6 bisphosphate and histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarate in liver preservation in rats submitted to total cold ischemia

Acta cir. bras; 35 (6), 2020
Abstract Purpose To compare Fructose-1,6-Bisphosphate (FBP) to Histidine-Tryptophan-Ketoglutarate (HTK) in liver preservation at cold ischemia. Methods Male rats (Sprague-Dawley: 280-340g) divided into three groups (n=7): Control; Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate (FBP); Histidine-Tryptophan-Ketoglutarate (H...

Intra-articular injections with dextrose were effective in relieving pain and improving functionality in patients with temporomandibular dysfunction

Biomarcadores traslacionales de modelos in vitro e in vivo de daño renal: Una perspectiva para abordar nefrotoxicidad desde múltiples factores etiológicos

Cienc. tecnol. salud; 7 (1), 2020
La prevalencia de enfermedad renal ha aumentado considerablemente en la última década y está previsto que crezca en los próximos años. Recientemente, diversos modelos se han utilizado para entender los procesos fisiopatológicos de daño renal y para la búsqueda de futuros candidatos farmacológico...

Silencing of circular RNA ANRIL attenuates oxygen-glucose deprivation and reoxygenation-induced injury in human brain microvascular endothelial cells by sponging miR-622

Biol. Res; 53 (), 2020
BACKGROUND: Circular RNA (circRNA) is highly expressed in the brain tissue, but its molecular mechanism in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion remains unclear. Here, we explored the role and underlying mechanisms of circRNA antisense non-coding RNA in the INK4 locus (circ_ANRIL) in oxygen-glucose deprivation a...
