Ubiquitin protein E3 ligase ASB9 suppresses proliferation and promotes apoptosis in human spermatogonial stem cell line by inducing HIF1AN degradation

Biol. Res; 56 (), 2023
BACKGROUND: Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) are critical for sustaining spermatogenesis. Even though several regulators of SSC have been identified in rodents, the regulatory mechanism of SSC in humans has yet to be discovered. METHODS: To explore the regulatory mechanisms of human SSCs, we analyzed pub...

Long non-coding ribonucleic acid H19 and ten-eleven translocation enzyme 1 messenger RNA expression levels in uterine fibroids may predict their postoperative recurrence

Clinics; 76 (), 2021
OBJECTIVES: To investigate the predictive value of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) H19 and the ten-eleven translocation enzyme 1 (TET1) transcriptional expression in postoperative recurrence of uterine fibroids (UFs). METHODS: Seventy-five patients with UF, who underwent surgical treatment, were enrolled i...

Determination of insecticides' lethal concentrations and metabolic enzyme levels in Triatoma dimidiata

Salud pública Méx; 62 (4), 2020
Abstract: Objective: The feasibility of the use of WHO impregnated paper and biochemical assays to determine lethal concentrations (LC50 and LC99) and insecticide metabolic enzyme levels of Triatoma dimidiata. Materials and methods: LC50 and LC99 were calculated with WHO papers impregnated at different...

Association of BDNF, HTR2A, TPH1, SLC6A4, and COMT polymorphisms with tDCS and escitalopram efficacy: ancillary analysis of a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial

Objective: We investigated whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with neuroplasticity and activity of monoamine neurotransmitters, such as the brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF, rs6265), the serotonin transporter (SLC6A4, rs25531), the tryptophan hydroxylase 1 (TPH1, rs1800532),...

Enzymatic potential of heterotrophic bacteria from a neutral copper mine drainage

Braz. j. microbiol; 47 (4), 2016
Abstract Copper mine drainages are restricted environments that have been overlooked as sources of new biocatalysts for bioremediation and organic syntheses. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the enzymatic activities (esterase, epoxide hydrolase and monooxygenase) of 56 heterotrophic bacteria isol...

Adelantos recientes en genética molecular y presentación clínica de la deficiencia de 21-hidroxilasa

Congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to deficiency of the enzyme 21-hydroxylase (21-OH), is distinguished in its classical and nonclassical form and it is also one of the most common autosomal recessive inherited diseases in humans. The classical form appears in a rate between 1:5 000 and 1:15 000 among th...

Padronizaçäo das concentraçöes de esteróides no líquido amniótico: II. Testosterona, sulfato de deidroepiandrosterona e cortisol
Standardization of steroid concentrations in the amniotic fluid: II. Testosteroni, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate and cortisol

As dosagens de testosterona, sulfato de deidroepiandrosterona (SDHEA) e cortisol no líquido amniótico (LA) permitem avaliar as funçöes das adrenais e das gônadas fetais. Estudamos LAs de 41 gestaçöes, obtidos por amniocentese no segundo trimestre da gestaçäo. Trinta e sete destas gestaçöes (da...

Padrao de resposta da 17-alfa-hidroxiprogesterona ao estimulo com ACTH em heterozigotos para deficiencia da enzima 21-hidroxilase.
Response standard of 17-alpha hydroxyprogesterone to ACTH stimulation in heterozygotes for 21-hydroxylase deficiency

A resposta de 17-alfa-OHD e cortisol ao estimulo com ACTH em individuos heterozigotos (HTZ) e homozigostos para hiperplasia adrenal congenita por deficiencia da 21-hidroxilase foi comparada com individuos controles. Os niveis basais ou estimulos de conrtisol nao apresentaram nenhuma diferenca entre os HT...

Hiperplasia congenita de suprarrenales por deficit de 21 hidroxilasa y su ligadura con el complejo mayor de histocompatibilidad (HLA).
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia with 21-hydroxylase deficiency and its linkage with the major histocompatibility complex (HLA)

La hiperplasia congenita de suprarrenales, por deficit en la 21 hidroxilasa, es un disturbio metabolico que se hereda como un caracter autosomico recesivo. Recientemente Dupont y colaboradores han demostrado una estrecha ligadura entre hiperplasia congenita de suprarrenales y el complejo HLA. Nosotros he...
