Interaction between bovine serum albumin (BSA) and phosphorus heterocycles (PHs) was studied using multi-spectroscopic techniques. The results indicated the high binding affinity of PHs to BSA as it quenches the intrinsic fluorescence of BSA. The experimental data suggested the fluorescence quenching mechanism between PHs and BSA as a dynamic quenching. From the UV-vis studies, the apparent ass...

Three dietary monosaccharides, (glucose, fructose, and ribose), have different rates of protein glycation that accelerates the production of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs). The present work was conducted to investigate the effect of ferulic acid (FA) on the three monosaccharide-mediated protein glycations and oxidation of BSA. Comparing the percentage reduction, FA (1-5 mM) reduced the ...

Calcium-deficient hydroxyapatite (CDHA) nano-crystals incorporated with bovine serum albumin (BSA) to form BSA-loaded nano-carriers were synthesized via both in-situ and ex-situ processes. Amount of BSA uptake by the CDHA nano-crystals and subsequent release behaviors of the BSA-loaded nano-carriers were investigated. The amount of BSA uptake by CDHA decreases with increasing pH but a larger am...

BACKGROUND The importance of deciding the appropriate dose of anticancer agents cannot be overemphasized. Body surface area (BSA) has been used to calculate the dose in anticancer therapy since the 1950s. Japanese oncologists, often use their own Japanese BSA formula instead of western BSA formulae. However, it is not widely known that some discrepancies exist between the BSA products of the Ja...

INTRODUCTION The livertaxis of glycyrrhizic acid-conjugated bovine serum albumin (GL-BSA) has been reported in the literature. Now, in this paper, we describe a novel type of drug-targeted delivery system containing 10-hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT) with liver tumor targeting. METHODS First, GL was coupled to BSA then HCPT was encapsulated in GL-BSA by high-pressure homogenization emulsification....

Lee YJ, Suh HN, Han HJ. Effect of BSA-induced ER stress on SGLT protein expression levels and -MG uptake in renal proximal tubule cells. Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 296: F1405–F1416, 2009. First published February 11, 2009; doi:10.1152/ajprenal.90652.2008.—Recent studies demonstrated that endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress regulates glucose homeostasis and that ER stress preconditioning which ind...

Immunological tolerance produced in rabbits by neonatal injections of BSA can be terminated by a series of injections of certain heterologous serum albumins which cross-react with BSA. Injections of albumins distantly related to BSA were more effective in terminating the tolerant state than injections of albumins closely related to BSA. It was concluded from results obtained with several hetero...

BACKGROUND The stability of protein drugs remains one of the key hurdles to their success in the market. The aim of the present study was to design a novel nanoemulsion drug-delivery system (NEDDS) that would encapsulate a standard-model protein drug--bovine serum albumin (BSA)--to improve drug stability. METHODS The BSA NEDDS was prepared using a phase-inversion method and pseudoternary phas...

The prevalence of cancer in Indonesia has increased by 8.8 percent the last two years (2018 and 2020) terms adding new cases mortality. Because therefor treatment becomes important reducing high number additional mortality due to patients. Intensive is surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy immunotherapy. Chemotherapy drugs used for include herbal plant-based (Cancer Fit) cisplatin its buy from on...
