including omnivorous grazers, herbivores, carnivorous scavengers and predators, and even some parasitic species. Consequently, their digestive system presents many adaptive variations
Probiotics are the microorganisms which would change the intestinal microbial groups of the host so that greatly reduce the opportunity of intestinal pathogens to occupy,excrete digestive enzyme in the host to strengthen the nutritional metabolism,stimulate the host immune system,improve the water environm...
5′-adenosine monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is an evolutionarily conserved serine/threonine kinase that was originally identified as the key player in maintaining cellular energy homeostasis. Intensive research over the last decade
There are a variety of health conditions that can interfere with the secretion of enough digestive enzymes to fully digest foods. Some are inherited genetic conditions while others develop over time. Lactose Intolerance Lactose intolerance occurs when you aren't able to digest lactose because of insu...
Much of our current understanding of microbiology derives from laboratory-based studies of pure cultures, largely motivated by societal needs of improved understanding of the complex physiology of bacteria as relates to pathogenicity, food spoilage, and
Probiotic extracellular vesicles (pEVs) are biologically active nanoparticle structures that can regulate the intestinal tract through direct or indirect mechanisms. They enhance the intestinal barrier function in livestock and poultry and help alleviate
2 3-D model of GαS. Residues 40 to 394 of Gαs are represented based on protein model portal, template 3sn6A. The GTP binding domains are indicated in yellow, the most common gsp mutations, at R201 (the target of Cholera toxin) and Q227, are indicated in red occurrence of Gαs ...
However, when energy is depleted, high levels of AMP and ADP bind to CBS3 of the AMPK γ-subunit, which prevents the phosphatases from accessing T172 of the AMPK α-subunit, thus increasing its phosphoryla- tion. In addition, binding of AMP and (to a lesser extent) ADP to CBS3 ...
This study applied an integrative approach to describe the ontogenetic development of the Japanese flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) emphasizing the changes in histology and related functions of its digestive system. Changes in histological structures of the digestive tract, expression and activity of ...
Sialic acids are predominantly found at the terminal ends of glycoproteins and glycolipids and play key roles in cellular communication and function. The process of sialylation, a form of post-translational modification, involves the covalent attachment
