Abstract:

Obligate intracellular pathogens must acquire host cell-derived nutrients to facilitate their survival. One such bacterial pathogen, Anaplasma phagocytophilum, replicates within neutrophils and non-phagocytic cells in a bacterial-modified, host cell-derived vacuole. The bacterium exploits host cell vesicular trafficking pathways to route nutrients to its vacuole and utilizes Rab GTPases, guanine nucleotide-dependent, vesicular trafficking regulators, to do so. We previously discovered that the A. phagocytophilum vacuolar membrane is decorated with a specific subset of Rab GTPases - Rab1, Rab4A

Abstract:

Rheumatoid cachexia (RC), i.e. muscle wasting and adiposity gain in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), is driven by inflammation and is a major contributor to reduced strength and physical function. Current treatment for RA is based on approaches that aim to tightly control inflammation from diagnosis onwards. This is best exemplified by ‘treat-to-target’ (T2T), which targets low disease activity, preferably ‘clinical remission’. The success of T2T in controlling inflammation is well-established, but whether it has attenuated RC is unknown. In a cross-sectional trial, we demonstrated that, despite wel

Une restriction alimentaire améliore la qualité du vieillissement et augmente la durée de vie chez de nombreuses espèces, y compris certains primates. Cependant, cette intervention s'accompagne souvent d'une baisse significative des capacités reproductives.

Abstract The aim of this study was to increase knowledge of how plants as a whole respond to targeted fertilization and to refine the method of foliar nutrition fertilization. The experiment also aimed to test how herbivores respond when presented with a choice between fertilized and unfertilized Salix leaves in a feeding trial experiment. One major problem that arises when trying to alter the nutrient levels within a specific part of a plant is that adding fertilizer directly to the soil in which the plants grow will have a systemic effect on the plant, causing the plant physiology as a who

Abstract:

Target shooting in the United States has become an increasingly popular sport in the last century. In addition to the large quantity of lead pellets littering range grounds and surrounding land, considerable amounts of clay target fragments cover shooting range areas as well as adjoining habitats. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) within the target, as well as lead pellets from shotguns pose multiple threats to a variety of wildlife. To determine the effects of clay target and lead pellet ingestion on wildlife, I conducted controlled experiments on Coturnix quail exposed to clay targets

Abstract:

Notch signalling is an evolutionary highly conserved signalling pathway. It plays various important roles in the regulation of many fundamental cellular processes such as proliferation, stem cell maintenance and differentiation during embryonic and adult development. Notch signalling has a simple transduction pathway. Upon Notch ligand binding to the receptor, the Notch intracellular domain (NICD) is released into the nucleus. The nuclear NICD interacts with the DNA-binding protein Suppressor of Hairless (Su(H)) to activate the expression of target genes, which are silenced by the Su(H)-corepr

Abstract:

Head and neck cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide. The current standard of care for head and neck cancer includes surgical resection of the tumor followed by chemoradiation. This targeted head and neck radiation causes dysfunction of the salivary glands, which leads to xerostomia, mucositis, dysphagia, dental caries, and malnutrition. These side effects greatly decrease patient quality of life and increase their financial responsibility. Current therapies available to ameliorate these negative side effects are expensive, only provide short-term relief, and many of them have nega

Abstract:

The influence of zinc status on the expression of p53, the human tumor suppressor gene as well as downstream target genes of p53 were examined in human cell lines. HepG2 cells were depleted of cellular zinc using a low-zinc media containing Chelex-100 treated serum. Cellular zinc levels were depleted to 64% of controls (4.0 μM zinc, comparable to normal media). p53 mRNA was increased in the zinc-depleted HepG2s as compared to control, however, p53 protein levels and DNA binding activity were not significantly different among treatment groups. NHBEs were depleted of zinc using a serum-free zinc

Abstract:

Nutrition professionals rely on nutrition education resources to help people make informed food choices. Despite this reliance, nutrition education resources are often developed in isolation of the intended users, a practice that may compromise the effectiveness of dietary services provided by nutrition professionals. Diet is a modifiable factor impacting bone health. Concurrent with midlife Canadian women’s less than recommended dietary intake of foods rich in calcium and vitamin D—two key nutrients for bone health—is a projected increased incidence of osteoporosis as Canada’s population ages

Abstract:

ABSTRACT It has been widely recognized that microRNAs are involved in nearly all cellular processes that have been investigated and contribute to a variety of diseases including cancer. Our prior studies demonstrated the depletion of one-carbon metabolism related B-vitamins, including folate, vitamin B2, B6 and B12, induced a genomic DNA hypomethylation and an elevation of the tumorigenic Wnt signaling in mouse colonic epithelium. The present study aimed to define whether microRNAs serve as mediators between these B-vitamins and the Wnt signaling, and thereby influence intestinal tumorigenesis

Abstract:

Obesity, a major risk factor in the development of Type 2 Diabetes (T2D), is commonly associated with insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia. The long accepted view has been that insulin resistance drives hyperinsulinemia; however, there are multiple lines of evidence that hyperinsulinemia can precede and drive insulin resistance. The signals and mechanisms by which chronic excess nutrients promote pancreatic β-cell dysfunction remain poorly understood. This prompted us to define the signaling events that contribute to basal insulin hypersecretion induced by excess glucose. Of particula

Abstract:

Acid phosphatases (APases; E.C. 3.1.3.2) catalyze the hydrolysis of phosphate (Pi) from Pi monoesters and anhydrides within the acidic pH range. Induction of intracellular and secreted purple acid phosphatases (PAPs) is a widespread plant response to nutritional Pi-deficiency. The probable function of intracellular APases is to recycle Pi from expendable intracellular organophosphate pools, whereas secreted APases likely scavenge Pi from the organically bound Pi that is prevalent in most soils. Although the catalytic function and regulation of plant PAPs have been described, their physiologica
