Nitric oxide-mediated oxidative damage and the progressive demise of motor neurons in ALS

Creator:: Drechsel, Derek A., Estevez, Alvaro G., Barbeito, Luis, and Beckman, Joseph S.
Abstract:: Oxidative damage is a common and early feature of Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and other neurodegenerative disorders. Dr. Mark Smith and his colleagues have built the case for oxidative stress being a primary progenitor rather than a secondary end-stage epiphenomenon of neurodegeneration. They proposed that reactive...

Phenotypic transition of microglia into astrocyte-like cells associated with disease onset in a model of inherited ALS

Creator:: Trias, Emiliano, Díaz-Amarilla, Pablo, Olivera-Bravo, Silvia, Isasi, Eugenia, Drechsel, Derek A., Lopez, Nathan, Bradford, C. Samuel, Ireton, Kyle E., Beckman, Joseph S., and Barbeito, Luis
Abstract:: Microglia and reactive astrocytes accumulate in the spinal cord of rats expressing the Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)-linked SOD1ᴳ⁹³ᴬ mutation. We previously reported that the rapid progression of paralysis in ALS rats is associated with the appearance of prolifer- ative astrocyte-like cells that surround motor neurons. These cells, designated as Aberrant...

Characterization of different forms of lysophospholipase in barley

Creator:: Lundgard, Robert
Abstract:: During barley germination, α-amylase and other hydrolases are synthesized in the aleurone layer and secreted into the starchy endosperm. As starch is degraded by amylases, lysophospholipids are released from inclusion complexes with the starch and undergo hydrolysis by a lysophospholipase (LPL) activity. Studies with embryo-free half seeds and isolated aleurone...

Lysophospholipase of germinating barley seeds

Creator:: Fujikura, Yuzo
Abstract:: The amylose component of cereal starch contains lysophospholipid, predominantly lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) as inclusion complexes. As starch undergoes degradation by amylases during barley germination, lysophospholipase (LPL) an enzyme which degrades lysophospholipids appears in the starchy endosperms and becomes associated with the starch fraction. The enzyme has been reported to have a...

Studies on sterol : UDP glucose glucosyltransferase in germinating pea seedling

Creator:: Fang, Ta-Yun
Abstract:: Steryl glycoside is synthesized from mevalonate [2- ¹⁴C] in both maturing pea seeds and etiolated pea seedlings. The maturing seed appeared more active than the seedlings for this synthesis. The sugar moiety was identified predominantly as glucose by acid hydrolysis and paper chromatography of the aqueous extract of the hydrolysate....

Changes in enzyme activities of the isoprenoid pathway in germinating Pisum sativum

Creator:: Green, Terrence Robert, 1944-
Abstract:: The nature of the isoprenoid pathway and diversity of biologically significant products suggests that the pathway may be highly regulated, particularly under stress conditions, where the availability of high energy intermediates is limited. It was postulated that germinating seeds suffer from a limited supply of available energy and must therefore...

Indirect effects of fishing on predators and their prey

Creator:: Stallings, Christopher Derek
Abstract:: Predators are fundamentally important for regulating and driving prey population dynamics as well as structuring ecological communities. Over-exploitation of marine resources has caused dramatic depletions of predatory fish species and shifts in marine community composition, with attendant declines in productivity and diversity of marine ecosystems. Despite the important ramifications of...

A global scale analysis of the spatiotemporal distribution of foliar biomass for 1988

Creator:: Pross, Derek D.
Abstract:: Many ecological systems follow a seasonal cycle affecting primary production,carbon flux, and vegetative gas emissions. The seasonal variation of ecological systems are both affected by and have effects upon climatic factors. A quantitative estimate of the seasonal variation of vegetation is required to characterize ecological systems and their interaction with...

Agricultural development and urban unemployment : a simulation analysis of the Nigerian economy

Creator:: Byerlee, Derek Ronald
Abstract:: The study critically analyzes the implication of various agricultural development policies on urban unemployment and income distribution. More specifically it focuses on the evaluation of agricultural policies at the macro-economic Level in the Nigerian economy. A system science and simulation approach is used to build and test a ten sector...
