OBJECTIVE O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) transferase (OGT) catalyzes the addition of O-GlcNAc and GlcNAcylation has extensive crosstalk with phosphorylation to regulate signaling and transcription. Pig OGT is located near the region of chromosome X that affects follicle stimulating hormone level and testes size. The objective of this study was to find the variations of OGT between Euro...

The electroweak phenomena associated with an intensive background magnetic field are rather rich. Under a background magnetic field, a physical photon can decay into an e+e− pair or split into two photons. Such processes are relevant to the attenuation of gamma-rays from pulsars. Similarly, with a sufficient energy, a neutrino can go through the decays ν → νe+e−3 and ν → νγ. For processes witho...

Samples of human plasma having lipoprotein(a) (Lp[a]) protein levels between 5 and 15 mg/dl and a single apolipoprotein(a) (apo[a]) isoform were incubated in vitro at pH 7.7 with various concentrations (1-20 mM) of N-acetylcysteine, homocysteine, 2-mercaptoethanol (2ME), and dithiothreitol (DTT) for 1 hour at 37 degrees C under a nitrogen atmosphere. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel el...

Lung injury caused by inhalation of dust from swine-concentrated animal-feeding operations (CAFO) involves the release of inflammatory cytokine interleukin 8 (IL-8), which is mediated by protein kinase C-ε (PKC-ε) in airway epithelial cells. Once activated by CAFO dust, PKC-ε is responsible for slowing cilia beating and reducing cell migration for wound repair. Conversely, the cAMP-dependent pr...

Background: Brucellosis is one of the most prevalent diseases common between humans and animals. It is also called Malta fever, Undulant fever and Mediterranean fever. This disease is spread by consuming milk and its unpasteurized derivatives. Clinical symptoms of brucellosis in humans are fever, chills, headache, muscular pain, tiredness, loss of appetite, joint pain, weight loss, constipation...

Brucellosis is anthropozoonosis caused by Brucella spp. Among the zoonotic species, B. abortus main species affecting cattle and can easily be transmitted to humans. The purpose of this study was investigate, through epidemiological inquiry serological analysis, animal human health as related smooth strain in a slaughterhouse located southern region state Bahia. For purpose, blood samples were ...
