Total of seven teenagers and two adults were given sweet potato diets that supplied slightly below requirement levels of protein for 32 (experiment 1) or 53 days (experiment 2) in two separate experiments. In experiment 1 and during the first 36 days of experiment 2, nitrogen (N) balance studies
BACKGROUND
The purple sweet potato, Ipomoea batatas, belongs to the family Convolvulaceae. It is one of the most widely consumed tubers in Asia and is found in many dishes. Many people with diabetes eat purple sweet potato tubers to help reduce blood glucose in China.
OBJECTIVE
To predict the
Three chitin-binding proteins (CBPs: CBP9, CBP15, CBP66) were identified from the larval hemolymph of sweet potato hornworm, Agrius convolvuli. Two (CBP9 and CBP15) of them have been isolated and purified by gel filtration (Superdex HR 75), cation-exchange chromatography (Mono S), and reverse-phase
Peroxynitrite (ONOO-), formed from a reaction of superoxide and nitric oxide, is one of the most potent cytotoxic species known to oxidize cellular constituents including essential proteins, lipids, and DNA. ONOO- induces cellular and tissue injury, resulting in several human diseases such as
Alfalfa trap crops are currently used to manage Lygus spp. in organic strawberry fields on the California Central Coast. The retention of Lygus spp. in alfalfa creates aggregated distributions that provide improved opportunities for biological control by the introduced parasitoid Peristenus relictus
Diabetic nephropathy is a clinical syndrome characterized by albuminuria, hypertension and progressive renal insufficiency. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa) leaf extract on diabetic nephropathy in rats. Streptozotocin (STZ) diabetic rats were
Multiplex PCR is an important technique for detecting a variety of pathogens simultaneously in a single assay. Previous research has focused on optimising the factors affecting reliable multiplex PCR, including primer design, PCR components and conditions, and inhibitors in samples. In this study,
Semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (s-SWCNTs) have been demonstrated as an excellent material for transistors, miniaturized devices and sensors due to their high carrier mobility, stability, scattering-free ballistic transport of carriers etc. Herein, we have designed a biosensor to
Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) is a highly attractive plant host to Lygus spp. and is used as a trap crop in California organic strawberries to influence the dispersion and dispersal of these pests, particularly Lygus hesperus Knight. The abundance and distribution of Lygus spp. nymphs between two
Inflammation plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of obesity. Purple sweet potato color (PSPC) has potential anti-inflammation efficacy. We evaluated the effect of PSPC on kidney injury induced by high fat diet (HFD) and explored the mechanism underlying these effects. The results showed that
Gossypol was examined in relation to its effect on certain enzymes and enzyme complexes associated with the tricarboxylic acid cycle and the electron transport system. Succinic dehydrogenase and cytochrome oxidase activity from sweet potato was completely inhibited by gossypol at 7.5 x 10(-3)m and
Gateways to Clinical Trials is a guide to the most recent clinical trials in current literature and congresses. The data in the following tables have been retrieved from the Clinical Trials Knowledge Area of Prous Science Integrity, the drug discovery and development portal,
OBJECTIVE
To compare the clinical and laboratory features of children with Kawasaki disease with those with acute adenoviral infection, which may mimic Kawasaki disease.
METHODS
We retrospectively compared the medical records of children with Kawasaki disease and atypical Kawasaki disease with those
A girl was diagnosed with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG)-resistant Kawasaki disease (KD) due to pyrexia and hemoptysis for eight days. The girl was a school-age child with major clinical manifestations of pyrexia, skin rash, enlargement of bilateral cervical lymph nodes, conjunctival hyperaemia,
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is associated with an increased risk of vascular complications. Lupus nephritis is a major manifestation of SLE in the clinic. Lupus nephritis is elevated by T helper type 17 (Th17) cells, the major pro‑inflammatory T‑cell subset, leading to autoimmunity
