To regain infectivity, Trypanosoma brucei, the pathogen causing Human and Animal African trypanosomiasis, undergoes a complex developmental program within the tsetse fly known as metacyclogenesis. RNA-binding protein 6 (RBP6) is a potent orchestrator of this process, however, an understanding of its functionally important domains and their mutational constraints is lacking. Here, we perform deep mutational scanning of the entire RBP6 primary structure.

The metabolomic approach has recently been used in the assessment of semen quality and male fertility. Additionally, the crucial roles of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) and aromatic amino acids (AAAs) in metabolic syndrome (MetS) were reported. However, little information exists about the association between BCAAs and AAAs with semen parameters, particularly in men with and without MetS.

Lipase enzymes play a vital role in digestion and nutrient metabolism in host organisms, with symbiotic bacteria producing abundant enzymes, carbohydrates, vitamins, and other nutrients. This study aimed to isolate, identify, and screen lipase-producing bacteria from the gut of Systomus sarana, optimize enzyme production using Response Surface Methodology (RSM), and characterize the extracted lipase protein. A total of 11 bacterial strains were isolated and identified through 16S rRNA sequencing.

Objectives: Investigating the effect of melatonin (MLT) on the pharmacokinetics and related neurotransmitter and amino acid metabolism of vigabatrin (VGB) in epileptic rats in vivo.
Methods: High performance liquid chromatography was used to examine the pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of VGB after intragastric administration dosing (50,100,200) mg/kg singly or in combination with melatonin (20 mg/kg) in rats. The single-compartment model of first-order elimination was fitted with the nonlinear mixed-effect model of first-order estimation.
