introduction: glycoconjugates are molecules with a carbohydrate bounded to proteins. the terminal sugars of glycoconjugates are specific identified by lectins. glycoconjugates play an important role in various developmental processes. this study examines the developmental changes in certain glycoconjugates during the development of meckel's cartilage through lectin histochemistry. materials and...

Background: Spleen plays a role in human immune system as well recycling and filtering blood. The aging spleen is associated with fibrosis impaired system, increasing individual vulnerability to getting infections. Regular physical activity essential maintain enhance body fitness, endurance, system.Objective: This study aimed investigate the effects of mild moderate-intensity treadmill exercise...

background: glycowithanolides (withaferin a), is one of the main withanolides active principle isolated from plant withania somnifera and is claimed that it possess the aphrodisiac, sedative, rejuvenate and life prolonging properties. objective: in the present investigation, antioxidant activity of active principles of withania somnifera was tested against d-galactose induced oxidative stress i...

Although Streptococcus thermophilus accumulated [14C]lactose in the absence of an endogenous energy source, galactose-fermenting (Gal+) cells were unable to accumulate [14C]galactose unless an additional energy source was added to the test system. Both Gal+ and galactose-nonfermenting (Gal-) strains transported galactose when preincubated with sucrose. Accumulation was inhibited 50 or 95% when ...

Untransformed as well as polyoma virus-transformed hamster cells can be grown equally well on a slow catabolite like galactose as on a rapid catabolite like glucose. The rate of uptake of galactose is greatly enhanced in the transformed cells as compared with untransformed cells, and this enhancement of entry was as markedly expressed in galactose-grown cultures as in glucose-grown cultures. Si...

Accumulation of galactose in dairy products due to partial lactose fermentation by lactic acid bacteria yields poor-quality products and precludes their consumption by individuals suffering from galactosemia. This study aimed at extending our knowledge of galactose metabolism in Lactococcus lactis, with the final goal of tailoring strains for enhanced galactose consumption. We used directed gen...
