brain in the middle of Greenwood Shopping Centre - or Deadsville as she prefers to call it. One Saturday she closes the shop to get some peace and quiet to eat her lunch, but as she's picking at her sultana scone, a trio of 'yooths' skulk out of Gluehead Alley down the side of ...
but that shouldn’t be added or refined sugar; it should be healthy carbohydrates from sources like whole grain bread, fruit, vegetables and root vegetables; broken down into sugar. We don’t need refined sugar for any particular function in the body, ...

The detrimental impact of fructose, a widely used sweetener in industrial foods, was previously evidenced on various brain regions. Although adolescents are among the highest consumers of sweet foods, whether brain alterations induced by the sugar intake during this age persist until young adulthood ...
SLC35A4 has been classified in the SLC35A subfamily based on amino acid sequence homology. Most of the proteins belonging to the SLC35 family act as transporters of nucleotide sugars. In this study, the subcellular localization of endogenous SLC35A4 was determined via immunofluorescence staining, ...
20 December 2005 / Published online: 11 March 2006 Ó The Japan Society of Human Genetics and Springer-Verlag 2006 Abstract We have previously reported the production of a recombinant a-galactosidase with engineered N-linked sugar chains facilitating uptake and transport to lyso- somes in a Sacch...
The effects of a sugar mixture containing 43% glucose and 36% fructose on ethanol metabolism and on ethanol-induced CNS impairment were studied in intact rats. When ethanol was given orally mixed with the sugars there was a significant reduction in the area of the blood alcohol time curve ...
It is interesting to note that while the recombinant enzyme migrates at the expected molecular weight for a monomer (∼140 kDa), the purified enzyme from brain migrates at ∼600 kDa using size-exclusion chromatography [30]. This suggests that O-GlcNAcase is in a complex and in fact O-...

When blood sugar levels are high, the body releases the hormone insulin to mop it up and store it. Among other effects, insulin influences cell membranes at the blood-brain barrier to increase L-tryptophan absorption in the brain. Tryptophan is an amino acid precursor to the neurotransmitter ...
