[Changes in the synthesis of short-chain fatty acids under the influence of various factors in healthy people and patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus].

Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) are an important link in the maintenance and normalization of some important body functions. Recently, the metabolic component of the SCFAs effects has also been actively studied; the effect on body weight, insulin resistance and glycemia is of particular interest in the context of the prevention and treatment of carbohydrate metabolism disorders. In this regard, it is relevant to study the characteristics of SCFAs' production in patients with impaired carbohydrate metabolism, mainly with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

Rapid translocation of NGR proteins driving polarization of PIN-activating D6 protein kinase during root gravitropism.

Root gravitropic bending represents a fundamental aspect of terrestrial plant physiology. Gravity is perceived by sedimentation of starch-rich plastids (statoliths) to the bottom of the central root cap cells. Following gravity perception, intercellular auxin transport is redirected downwards leading to an asymmetric auxin accumulation at the lower root side causing inhibition of cell expansion, ultimately resulting in downwards bending.

Phytaspase Is Capable of Detaching the Endoplasmic Reticulum Retrieval Signal from Tobacco Calreticulin-3.

Soluble chaperones residing in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) play vitally important roles in folding and quality control of newly synthesized proteins that transiently pass through the ER en route to their final destinations. These soluble residents of the ER are themselves endowed with an ER retrieval signal that enables the cell to bring the escaped residents back from the Golgi. Here, by using purified proteins, we showed that phytaspase, a plant aspartate-specific protease, introduces two breaks at the C-terminus of the ER resident calreticulin-3.

ABP1-TMK auxin perception for global phosphorylation and auxin canalization.

The phytohormone auxin triggers transcriptional reprogramming through a well-characterized perception machinery in the nucleus. By contrast, mechanisms that underlie fast effects of auxin, such as the regulation of ion fluxes, rapid phosphorylation of proteins or auxin feedback on its transport, remain unclear. Whether auxin-binding protein 1 (ABP1) is an auxin receptor has been a source of debate for decades.

Identification of Phytaspase Interactors via the Proximity-Dependent Biotin-Based Identification Approach.

Proteolytic enzymes are instrumental in various aspects of plant development, including senescence. This may be due not only to their digestive activity, which enables protein utilization, but also to fulfilling regulatory functions. Indeed, for the largest family of plant serine proteases, subtilisin-like proteases (subtilases), several members of which have been implicated in leaf and plant senescence, both non-specific proteolysis and regulatory protein processing have been documented.

The Impact of Deployment and Combat Exposure on Physical Health Among Military Personnel: A Systematic Review of Incidence, Prevalence, and Risks.

Objectives: The impact of deployment and combat on mental health of military personnel is well described. Less evidence is available to demonstrate and summarize the incidence, prevalence, and risks of these exposures on physical health. This study aims to (1) systematically review the available literature to determine the incidence and prevalence of physical health conditions among military personnel during and after deployment and (2) investigate the risks of deployment and combat exposure on physical health.

Clathrin-Mediated Endocytosis Delivers Proteolytically Active Phytaspases Into Plant Cells.

Phytaspases belong to the family of plant subtilisin-like proteases and are distinct from other family members, as they have strict and rarely occurring aspartate cleavage specificity and unusual localization dynamics. After being secreted into the apoplast of healthy plant tissues, phytaspases are able to return back into cells that have been committed to cell death due to a variety of biotic and abiotic stresses. It was recently discovered that retrograde transport of phytaspases involves clathrin-mediated endocytosis.

Systematic review: continuous intraperitoneal insulin infusion with implantable insulin pumps for diabetes mellitus.

Unlabelled: Continuous intraperitoneal insulin infusion (CIPII) with implantable insulin pumps (IIPs) is a treatment option for diabetes, which is not widely utilized nor freely accessible in clinical practice. The aim of this study was to summarize available evidence on use of IIPs for CIPII for diabetes treatment, since its introduction to clinical use on the following outcomes: HbA1c, hypoglycaemic events, and complications of treatment.

Secondary Outcomes: complications of diabetes and treatment satisfaction.

[Use of a logical probability method for evaluating the clinical indices in fascioliasis of cattle].

The possibility of helminthiasis diagnosis with the use of nonparametric models of statistic analysis was checked. The method resolves itself into the estimation of the degree of informativeness of characters chosen for the description of elements of phenomena, for the isolation of a certain complex of most informative characters and the construction of a system of standards with the use of EC. The level of informativeness of 38 haematological and clinical indices was tested.
