Neoglycoconjugates prepared by synthesis of oxidized mannans from Saccharomyces cerevisiae with bovine serum albumin were studied for interaction with Concanavalin A. The mannan-bovine serum albumin neoglycoproteins, different in degree of mannan oxidation used for synthesis and its content in conjugates were prepared. The interaction of these glycoconjugates with Concanavalin A by using precipitation method was investigated. The conjugates prepared at high weight ratio mannan: protein (4:1) involved 47-65% of saccharides and formed by precipitation with Concanavalin A aggregates with low content of protein. The obtained results showed that conjugates with lower content of mannan (up to 30%) are more efficacious for their aggregation with Concanavalin A than the conjugates with high content of mannan.

Objective: To investigate the synergistic effects of combined sleep interventions and enhanced nutritional support on postoperative recovery in colon cancer patients, with a focus on sleep quality, nutritional status, pain management, psychological well-being, and quality of life.

Methods: This randomized controlled trial included 290 postoperative colon cancer patients admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University between May 2021 and May 2023. Participants were randomized into two groups: the intervention group, which received standard care supplemented with sleep and nutritional interventions, and the control group, which received standard care alone.

Exploring Biophysical and Chemoinformatics Approaches for Interactions of Ionic Liquids with Hemoglobin, DNA, BSA, and HSA.

Chem Biodivers

January 2025

SRM Institute of Science and Technology - NCR Campus, chemistry, Department of Chemistry, SRM Institute of Science and Technology, Delhi NCR Camp, India, 241405, Modinagar, INDIA.

This review paper provides an inclusive overview of the intricate interactions amid ionic liquids (ILs) and essential biomacromolecules, mainly Hemoglobin (Hb), Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA), Human Serum Albumin (HSA), and Calf Thymus-DNA (CT-DNA). ILs have recently become a topic of great attention because of their inimitable physicochemical properties and potential uses in different fields. The review systematically explores the binding mechanisms, thermodynamics, and structural changes induced by ILs on Hb, BSA, HSA, and CT-DNA using spectroscopic, thermodynamic, and computational techniques.

Outcomes of Liver Transplant for Hepatic Epithelioid Hemangioendothelioma.

Clin Transplant

February 2025

Division of Transplantation Surgery, Department of Surgery, Johns Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore, Maryland, USA.

Introduction: Hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (HEH) is a rare indication of liver transplant with limited evidence.

Methods: Adult recipients undergoing first-time liver-only transplant from 2002 to 2021 in the United States were identified using the UNOS/OPTN database. We compared post-transplant outcomes of recipients receiving liver transplant for HEH versus other diagnoses.

Diabetes nephropathy (DN) is a severe diabetic chronic microvascular complication and the major cause of end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Our study aimed to investigate the effects of isoliquiritigenin (ISL) a natural flavonoid compound on DN and to explore the underlying mechanisms. The db/db mice were received intragastric treatments of ISL (5, 10, or 20 mg/kg), vehicle or positive drug metformin (300 mg/kg) once a day for 12 weeks, and the db/m mice treated with vehicle were used as controls.
