Mature endosperms from opaque-2 mutant seeds with various genetic backgrounds (B 37, W 64A, R 802A and Oh 43) contained twice as much globulin than the corresponding normals, reduced amounts of zein and an increased amount of albumin. The latter is caused by a diminished disappearance of albumins in
The effectivity of water extract from the style of Zea mays on diabetic nephropathy was investigated in the development of new natural medicinal resources. Streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetic rats were used to evaluate the therapeutic effect of the style. Urinary albumin excretion and creatinine
Non-enzymatic glycation and the accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are associated with various disease states, including complications of diabetes and aging. Secondary metabolites from several plant species are known to inhibit non-enzymatic glycation and the formation of AGEs,
Effects of chronic exposure to corticosterone in drinking water on corticosterone kinetics, blood chemistry, and concentrations of catecholamines in parts of brain were studied in Long-Evans rats. Rats were randomly grouped into 3 x 2 treatments (n=4), with three treatments of drinking water (tap
The germ meal out of corn-oil cake contained up to 24.3% of protein, on the average. The main part of germ meal proteins was represented by the alkali-soluble fraction, up to 79.9%; the water-soluble proteins made up 7.3%, the salt-soluble--up to 4.6%, and alcohol-soluble--only up to 1%. With regard
BACKGROUND
Zea mays L. (Poaceae) Stigma maydis is an underutilized product of corn cultivation finding therapeutic applications in oxidative stress-related disorders.
OBJECTIVE
This study investigated its aqueous extract against acetaminophen (APAP)-perturbed oxidative insults in rat
Gossypol is a highly reactive compound present in cotton (Gossypium spp.). The aim of this work was to determine whether the administration of gossypol conjugated to albumin can immunize rats and thereby prevent the acute hepatotoxicity associated with gossypol. The first experiment consisted of
Clonal growth of Chinese hamster strain CHD-3 cells in a synthetic nutrient mixture supplemented with 10 micrograms of purified fetuin per milliliter exhibits an apparent requirement for serum albumin. The albumin can be replaced by linoleic acid, which occurs as a tightly bound component of most
Our previous studies showed that the common maize (Zea mays L.) sperm isolation medium (Brewbaker and Kwack salts in 0.44 m sucrose without buffering) caused cell lysis in vitro. In an attempt to remedy this situation, 6 sugars, 10 buffers, 5 pH values, and 3 membrane protective agents were screened
The interface of 10 or 25% (w/v) bovine serum albumin (BSA), pH 7, buffered solution against mineral or corn oil was studied with a Raman microscope. A gradient of distribution of protein and oil at the interface was observed. The difference spectrum obtained by subtracting the spectrum of mineral
Inbred corn varieties differing in their tolerance to the maize dwarf mosaic virus infection also differ in varietal character and host response to simazine. Oh 7B, a tolerant cv., has less total soluble and globulin proteins than the sensitive variety, H 55, but more Kjeldahl nitrogen, albumin
A liquid chromatography with atmospheric pressure chemical ionization tandem mass spectrometry method was developed and validated to investigate the pharmacokinetic properties of β-sitosterol, campesterol, and stigmasterol in rat plasma. Cholesterol-d6 was used as an internal standard. To avoid
Progress to understand mechanisms that regulate inhibin secretion and action in farm animals has been handicapped by the shortage of simple, accurate assay methods to quantify inhibin in circulation. RIA would seem to provide the needed quantitative capability, but results of the following studies
