Optimization, Partial Purification, and Characterization of Bioactive Peptides of Lactobacillus paracasei Isolated from Traditional Egyptian Cheese
Background: Bacteriocins are small peptides which are ribosomally synthesized and have been shown to have wide range of antimicrobial activity. The aim of this study was to optimize the production of L. paracasei MG847589 bacteriocin. Furthermore, the potential antibacterial properties of the novel bacteriocins were characterized and evaluated against Staphylococcus aureus. Methods: The presen...
متن کاملMorphologic and biochemical variability of tissue and cultured cells from human pheochromocytoma.
Primary cell cultures from 18 human pheochromocytomas were maintained in culture for 10 to 12 days and characterized. The cell yields ranged from 1.0 to 60.1 X 10(6) cells/g wet weight of tissue. Cell size, as determined by histofluorescent microscopy, varied as much as seven-fold among cells derived from a given tumor and ten-fold between cells from all tumors. Cell catecholamine content, nore...
متن کاملProadrenomedullin N-terminal 20 peptide: minimal active region to regulate nicotinic receptors.
Proadrenomedullin N-terminal 20 peptide (PAMP-[1-20]; ARLDVASEFRKKWNKWALSR-amide) is a potent hypotensive and catecholamine release-inhibitory peptide released from chromaffin cells. We studied the mechanism of PAMP action and how its function is linked to structure. We tested human PAMP-[1-20] on catecholamine secretion in PC12 pheochromocytoma cells and found it to be a potent, dose-dependent...

متن کاملCharacteristics of Human Endometrial Stem Cells in Tissue and Isolated Cultured Cells: An Immunohistochemical Aspect
Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the percentage of the stem cells population in human endometrial tissue sections and cultured cells at fourth passage. Methods: Human endometrial specimens were divided into two parts, one part for morphological studies and the other part for in vitro culture. Full thickness of human normal endometrial sections and cultured endometrial cells ...
