In pH 5.5 phosphate buffer solution, N-n-undecyl-N'-(sodium-p-aminobenzenesulfonate) thiourea (UPT) produced a pair of redox peaks on the bare glassy carbon electrode. At the multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT) modified electrode, the electrochemical behavior of UPT enhanced greatly. In the presence of bovine serum albumin (BSA), the peak currents of UPT decreased linearly due to the formation of a super-molecular complex. This method was successfully applied to the determination of BSA in a bovine serum sample.

Unlabelled: is a protozoan parasite that causes human and animal African trypanosomiases (HAT and AAT). Cardiac symptoms are commonly reported in HAT patients, and intracardiac parasites with accompanying myocarditis have been observed in both natural hosts and animal models of infection. Despite the importance of as a cause of cardiac dysfunction and the dramatic socioeconomic impact of African trypanosomiases in sub-Saharan Africa, there are currently no reproducible murine models of associated cardiomyopathy.

Bone is a dynamic tissue that serves several purposes in the human body, including storing calcium, forming blood cells, and protecting and supporting the body's organs. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is secreted into the circulation by osteoblasts, the cells responsible for making bone. It attaches to the surface of osteoblast cells or matrix vesicles.

Objectives: IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most common primary glomerular disease in China, but its pathogenesis remains unclear. This study aims to explore the regulatory role of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway in autophagy and mesangial proliferation during renal injury in IgA.

Methods: The activity of mTOR and autophagy was evaluated in kidney samples from IgAN patients and in an IgAN mouse model induced by oral bovine serum albumin and carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) injection.

Aggregated gold nanoparticles as photoactivators for the photopolymerization of proteins.

Department of Chemistry, Susquehanna University, 514 University Avenue, Selinsgrove, PA 17870, USA. Electronic address:

Photopolymerization of bovine serum albumin was carried out using reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated by the irradiation of citrate-stabilized gold nanoparticles by a pulsed Nd:YAG laser. The ROS in this case, singlet oxygen (O), targets aromatic amino acids within the protein to induce photopolymerization or crosslinking. Other ROS, like the hydroxyl radical, can also form in solution and under high-energy irradiation.
