Gait Stability Measurement by Using Average Entropy.

Gait stability has been measured by using many entropy-based methods. However, the relation between the entropy values and gait stability is worth further investigation. A research reported that average entropy (AE), a measure of disorder, could measure the static standing postural stability better than multiscale entropy and entropy of entropy (EoE), two measures of complexity.

Mechanism of sulfotransferase pharmacogenetics in altered xenobiotic metabolism.

Introduction: Cytosolic sulfotransferases (SULTs), one of the vital enzymes of detoxication, catalyze the sulfation of native and exogenous hydrophobic molecules. Xenobiotic accumulation can induce a variety of diseases, including cancers. Sulfation facilitates the solubilization and removal of xenobiotics.

Tyrosine sulfation as a protein post-translational modification.

Integration of inorganic sulfate into biological molecules plays an important role in biological systems and is directly involved in the instigation of diseases. Protein tyrosine sulfation (PTS) is a common post-translational modification that was first reported in the literature fifty years ago. However, the significance of PTS under physiological conditions and its link to diseases have just begun to be appreciated in recent years.
