Galactose in human metabolism, glycosylation and congenital metabolic diseases: Time for a closer look
نویسندگان
چکیده
Galactose is an essential carbohydrate for cellular metabolism, as it contributes to energy production and storage in several human tissues while also being a precursor glycosylation. Galactosylated glycoconjugates, such glycoproteins, keratan sulfate-containing proteoglycans glycolipids, exert plethora of biological functions, including structural support, adhesion, intracellular signaling many more. The relevance galactose further entailed by the number pathogenic conditions consequent defects galactosylation homeostasis. growing rare congenital disorders involving along with its recent therapeutical applications are drawing increasing attention metabolism. In this review, we aim draw comprehensive overview functions cells, metabolism role glycosylation, provide systematic description all known metabolic resulting from alterations

In recent years, systems of care principles have been increasingly adopted because of their potential to support efforts to improve child welfare and other human service systems in ways that lead to increased safety, permanency, and well-being for children, adolescents, and their families. However, while the systems of care approach has become more widespread, a clear understanding of what defi...
متن کاملA closer look at rock physics models and their assisted interpretation in seismic exploration
Subsurface rocks and their fluid content along with their architecture affect reflected seismic waves through variations in their travel time, reflection amplitude, and phase within the field of exploration seismology. The combined effects of these factors make subsurface interpretation by using reflection waves very difficult. Therefore, assistance from other subsurface disciplines is needed i...
