A primary goal of managing invasive aquatic plants is to selectively control the target plant without impacting more desirable plant species. A native plant of concern is wild rice ( Zizania palustris L.). Wild rice provides habitat for fish and wildlife, is a food source for waterfowl, and is utilized by humans as a cereal grain. The objective of this study was to examine the sensitivity of th...

PURPOSE We previously demonstrated that the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway (UPP) is a general protein quality control system that selectively degrades damaged or abnormal lens proteins, including C-terminally truncated αA-crystallin. The objective of this work was to determine the effects of wt αA- and αB-crystallins on the degradation of C-terminally truncated αA-crystallin (αA(1-162)) and vice ...

We recently demonstrated that the orphan nuclear receptor testicular receptor 4 (TR4) is a potent regulator of corticotroph tumor growth and hormone secretion. The Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK pathway is commonly overactivated in human tumors and we have demonstrated that corticotroph tumor TR4 is activated by ERK1/2-mediated phosphorylation. We evaluated effects of MEK-162, a selective, non-ATP-competitive...

During critical illness, the stressors are multiple and include emotional and physical stress such as trauma or infection, and various therapeutic or diagnostic interventions such as surgery, arterial or venous catheterization, laryngeal intubation and mechanical ventilation, and drugs. It is also paramount to recognize that stress is sustained at a certain level of intensity for several days w...

Subtype H1N1 influenza A virus (IAV) that caused a pandemic in 2009, called A(H1N1)pdm09, has been circulating as seasonal IAV among humans, escaping from herd immunity through amino acid substitutions hemagglutinin (HA). Additionally, position 162 of HA A(H1N1)pdm09 evolved to be N-linked glycosylated by 2017. Here the effect glycosylation at was examined comparing ratio nonsynonymous diversit...
