Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a bioactive phospholipid that is present in all tissues examined to date. LPA signals extracellularly via cognate G protein-coupled receptors to mediate cellular processes such as survival, proliferation, differentiation, migration, adhesion and morphology. These LPA-influenced processes impact many aspects of organismaldevelopment. Inparticular, LPAsignallinghasb...

To investigate the association between respiratory function and basal metabolic rate (BMR), pulmonary function indices and BMR were measured in 251 elderly persons using a spirometer and a body composition analyzer. Forced vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) were more strongly correlated with BMR (r = 0.48 and r = 0.43, p < 0.01) than with lean body mass (r = ...

Vibrio parahaemolyticus, the leading cause of seafood-associated gastroenteritis, harbors two separate T6SSs on chromosomes 1 and 2, i.e., T6SS1 (VP1386-1420) and T6SS2 (VPA1025-1046). T6SS1 contains at least 7 putative operons: VP1386-1387, VP1388-1390, VP1392-1391, VP1393-1406, VP1400-1406, VP1409-1407, and VP1410-1420. V. parahaemolyticus AphA and OpaR are the two master regulators of quorum...

Endotoxins are derived from gram-negative bacteria and are a potential respiratory health risk for animals and humans. To determine the potential for endotoxin transport from a large open-lot dairy, total airborne endotoxin concentrations were determined at an upwind location (background) and five downwind locations on three separate days. The downwind locations were situated at of the edge of ...

We reported previously that a protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) activity is associated with the immunoprecipitated hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) receptor, also known as Met. The activity increased reversibly when Met was stimulated by HGF and decreased when Met was inactivated by PMA. To identify the PTP-binding region, we used deletion mutants of the receptor beta-subunit. The PTP activity d...
