Background
The archaeal exosome is formed by a hexameric RNase PH ring and three RNA binding subunits and has been shown to bind and degrade RNA in vitro. Despite extensive studies on the eukaryotic exosome and on the proteins interacting with this complex, little information is yet available on the identification and function of archaeal exosome regulatory factors. 相似文献3.

We hypothesize that the energy strategy of a cell is a key factor for determining how, or if, the immune system interacts
with that cell. Cells have a limited number of metabolic states, in part, depending on the type of fuels the cell consumes.
Cellular fuels include glucose (carbohydrates), lipids (fats), and proteins. We propose that the cell's ability to switch
to, and efficiently use, fat for fuel confers immune privilege. Additionally, because uncoupling proteins are involved in
the fat burning process and reportedly in protection from free radicals, we hypothesize that uncoupling proteins play an important
role in immune privilege. Thus, changes in metabolism (caused by oxidative stresses, fuel availability, age, hormones, radiation,
or drugs) will dictate and initiate changes in immune recognition and in the nature of the immune response. This has profound
implications for controlling the symptoms of autoimmune diseases, for preventing graft rejection, and for targeting tumor
cells for destruction. 相似文献

Plants are an important source of drug development and numerous plant derived molecules have been used in clinical practice for the ailment of various diseases. The Toll-like receptor-4 (TLR-4) signaling pathway plays a crucial role in inflammation including rheumatoid arthritis. The TLR-4 binds with pro-inflammatory ligands such as lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to induce the downstream signaling mechanism such as nuclear factor κappa B (NF-κB) and mitogen activated protein kinases (MAPKs). This signaling activation leads to the onset of various diseases including inflammation. In the present study, 22 natural compounds were studied against TLR-4/AP-1 signaling, which is implicated in the inflammatory process using a computational approach. These compounds belong to various classes such as methylxanthine, sesquiterpene lactone, alkaloid, flavone glycosides, lignan, phenolic acid, etc. The compounds exhibited different binding affinities with the TLR-4, JNK, NF-κB, and AP-1 protein due to the formation of multiple hydrophilic and hydrophobic interactions. With TLR-4, rutin had the highest binding energy (−10.4 kcal/mol), poncirin had the highest binding energy (−9.4 kcal/mol) with NF-κB and JNK (−9.5 kcal/mol), respectively, and icariin had the highest binding affinity (−9.1 kcal/mol) with the AP-1 protein. The root means square deviation (RMSD), root mean square fraction (RMSF), and radius of gyration (RoG) for 150 ns were calculated using molecular dynamic simulation (MD simulation) based on rutin’s greatest binding energy with TLR-4. The RMSD, RMSF, and RoG were all within acceptable limits in the MD simulation, and the complex remained stable for 150 ns. Furthermore, these compounds were assessed for the potential toxic effect on various organs such as the liver, heart, genotoxicity, and oral maximum toxic dose. Moreover, the blood–brain barrier permeability and intestinal absorption were also predicted using SwissADME software (Lausanne, Switzerland). These compounds exhibited promising physico-chemical as well as drug-likeness properties. Consequently, these selected compounds portray promising anti-inflammatory and drug-likeness properties. 相似文献

In many practical situations scaling the data is necessary to solve linear programs. This note explores the relationships in translating the sensitivity analysis between the original and the scaled problems. 相似文献

An optimal protocol for the cryopreservation of in vitro-grown mat rush (igusa) buds by vitrification has been successfully developed. Established multiple stemmed cultures, which were induced in liquid MS medium containing 8.9 microM BA by roller culture, were cut into small clumps, plated on solid MS medium and cultured for three weeks at 25 degree C. Clumps that grew many buds were cold-hardened at 5 degrees C, with an 8 h photoperiod, for more than 30 d. The basal stem bud (1 to 2 mm long) was dissected from the clumps and precultured at 5 degrees C for 2 d on solid MS medium containing 0.3 M sucrose. The precultured buds were placed in 2 ml plastic cryotubes and osmoprotected with 1 ml loading solution containing 2 M glycerol and 0.6 M sucrose for 30 min at 25 degree C. Then they were dehydrated in 1 ml PVS2 solution at 25 degree C for 30 min and immersed in liquid nitrogen. Using this protocol, the survival level of cryopreserved igusa 'NZ219' buds reached 87 percent. This protocol was successfully applied to 42 different lines from three Juncus species, which had relatively high survival levels ranging from 30 to 90 percent and an average of 63 percent. 相似文献

Background
Oral administration of BCG was the route initially used by Calmette and Guérin, but was replaced by intradermal administration in virtually all countries after the Lubeck accident. However, Brazil continued to administer oral BCG Moreau RDJ, which was maintained until the mid-1970s when it was substituted by the intradermal route. Although BCG vaccination has been used in humans since 1921, little is known of the induced immune response. The aim of this study was to analyse immunological responses after oral vaccination with M. bovis BCG Moreau RDJ. 相似文献9.
We have investigated the superconducting properties of the Bi1.7 Pb0.3Sr2Ca2−xCe
x
Cu3O10+δ system with x=0.00, 0.02, 0.04, 0.08 and 0.1 by X-ray diffraction and magnetic susceptibility. The substitution of Ce for Ca has been found
to drastically change the superconducting properties of the system. X-ray diffraction studies on these compounds indicate
decrease in the c-parameter with increased substitution of Ce at Ca site and volume fraction of high T
c (2 : 2 : 2 : 3) phase decreases and low T
c phase increases. The magnetic susceptibility of this compound shows that the diamagnetic on set superconducting transition
temperature (onset) varies from 109 K to 51 K for x=0.00, 0.02, 0.04, 0.08 and 0.1. These results suggest the possible existence of Ce in a tetravalent state rather than a trivalent
state in this system; that is, Ca2+ → Ce4+ replacement changes the hole carrier concentration. Hole filling is the cause of lowering T
c of the system. 相似文献
