Sodium N-acyl prolines (NaNAPro) were synthesized using mixture of fatty acids obtained from coconut, palm, karanja, Sterculia foetida and high oleic sunflower oils via Schotten-Baumann reaction in 58-75% yields to study the synergetic effect of mixture of hydrophobic fatty acyl functionalities like
Enzymatic depolymerization of recalcitrant polysaccharides plays a key role in accessing the renewable energy stored within lignocellulosic biomass, and natural biodiversities may be explored to discover microbial enzymes that have evolved to conquer this task in various environments. Here, a
OBJECTIVE
Dry eye is commonly associated with autoimmune diseases such as Sjögren's syndrome (SS), in which exocrinopathy of the lacrimal gland leads to aqueous tear deficiency and keratoconjunctivitis sicca (KCS). KCS is among the most common and debilitating clinical manifestations of SS that is
In vitro cell-mediated cytotoxicity (CMC) assays have been carried out in human melanoma system with blood effector lymphocytes on [3H]proline-labeled target cells in a 48-hr microcytotoxicity technique. Three lymphocyte purification procedures (Ficoll:Hypaque gradient, plasma gel sedimentation
In vitro cell mediated cytotoxicity (CMC) assays have been conducted in a human melanoma system with a 3H-proline retention technique. Melanoma target cells from long-term cultures ("cell lines") are found to exhibit increased susceptibility for lymphocyte cytotoxicity in comparison to the same
Sepia cartilage collagen (pepsin-extracted) in acetate buffer (pH = 2.98) forms micelles at a particular concentration below which they do not normally form. The critical micelle concentration (cmc) of the collagen was determined in buffer as well as in SDS, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and
Background: Subclinical ketosis (SCK) causes economic losses in the dairy industry because it reduces the milk production and reproductive performance of cows.
Hypothesis/objectives:
Peripheral blood lymphocytes from 32 patients with malignant melanoma were tested for cell-mediated cytotoxicity (CMC) against cultured autologous melanoma cells. Effector cells were prepared from venous blood by defibrination, gel sedimentation, nylon column filtration, and lysis of remaining
The participation of B cells in cell-mediated cytotoxicity (CMC) for allogeneic and syngeneic murine sarcoma cells induced with 3-methylcholanthrene was investigated. Primed nonadherent peritoneal cells (NAPC) were treated with antisera against lymphocyte surface antigens and complement, and
In vitro cell-mediated cytotoxicity (CMC) for [3H]proline-labeled target cells was demonstrated with the use of unfractionated populations of regional lymph node, spleen, and peritoneal cells (RLNC's, SPC's, PC's, respectively) from C57BL/6 and strain A mice. Syngeneic and allogeneic hosts were
Using a 3H-proline release assay, in vitro cell-mediated cytotoxic (CMC) response of spleen lymphocytes from B13B13 chickens infected with Marek's disease (MD) virus (MDV) was investigated during the course of infection. Syngeneic MD-specific anti-tumoral CMC and natural killer (NK) activity was
The hypoxia-inducible factor 1alpha (HIF-1alpha) regulates transcriptional genes involved in cell proliferation, survival, and differentiation. Under normoxia, HIF-1alpha has a short half-life (t((1/2)) approximately 5 min) and low transcriptional activity. An HIF-1alpha mutant, produced by
The cell-mediated cytotoxicity (CMC) of nonadherent cells from the peritoneal cavity (NAPC) of alloimmunized mice can be measured by the [3H]proline microassay. The exhibition of thymus-derived (T) cell antigens on these killer cells was studied by incubating them with the relevant T-cell antisera
