Isolation and characterization of a folate receptor from human placenta.
While folate binding proteins have been described in serum and a variety of tissues, the function of these proteins is unknown. A particulate folate binding protein from human placenta has been isolated and characterized following solubilization with Triton X-100. The protein was purified 61,000-fold using affinity chromatography on pteroylglutamic acid-Sepharose as the major purification step....
متن کاملMathematical modeling predicts the effect of folate deficiency and excess on cancer-related biomarkers.
BACKGROUND Folate is an essential B-vitamin that mediates one-carbon metabolism reactions, including nucleotide synthesis and others related to carcinogenesis. Both low- and high-folate status influences carcinogenesis. METHODS We used a mathematical model of folate-mediated one-carbon metabolism to predict the effect of a range of intracellular epithelial folate concentrations (0.25-15.0 μmo...
متن کاملCell damaging by irradiating non-thermal plasma to the water: Mathematical modeling of chemical processes
Recently non-thermal plasma (NTP) is applied for many therapeutic applications. By NTP irradiating to the tissues or cell-lines, the water molecules (H2O) would be also activated leading to generate hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). By irradiating plasma to bio-solution, its main output including vacuum UV to UV causes the photolysis of H2O leading to generat...
متن کاملMediation of Folate Transport across the Placenta
Folate (B9) is an essential molecule for the development and maturation of cells. During gestation, it is extremely important to the growth and development of the nervous system. Systemic deficiencies of B9 during pregnancy cause neural tube defects (NTD) ranging from spina bifida to anencephaly. However, over supplementation of folate has been linked with the progression of cancer and therefor...
متن کاملMathematical Modeling of Gas Adsorption Processes in Packed Bed: The Role of Numerical Methods on Computation Time
Rigorous mathematical modeling of adsorption processes in packed beds involves time-consuming computations which are considered as the fundamental weakness of such thorough mathematical models. Thus, reducing the computation time was a key factor in improving adsorption mathematical models. In order to achieve this goal, an attempt was made to know how much using different numerical methods inf...
