Disease resistance

The current experiment aimed to determine the effects of peptidoglycan, known as a prebiotic compound, on the growth, feed efficiency, and disease resistance in Nile tilapia. Fish at an initial body weight of 22.6 ± 0.3g were distributed into a 100 L-glass tank system.

A total of 319 nasal swab samples were collected to clarify the prevalence and antimicrobial susceptibility of E. coli in the respiratory tract of goats in Can Tho, Vietnam. It indicated that E. coli was detected at a relatively minor rate (8.46%), and their prevalence in male goats and dairy goats was higher than that in others.

Obesity is well known that in various human pathological states such as: essential hypertension, coronary heart disease, type 2 diabetes mellitus,... Insulin resistance plays an important role in pathological state of diabetes. Recently, Katz et al provided QUICKI index (Quantitative insulin sensitivity check index) for insulin resistance condition evaluation. We carried out this study to determine the prevalence of insulin resistance by the QUICKI index and to evaluate the correlation between QUICKI index and the fasting glucose, insulin concentration.

Group B streptococcus (GBS) infections are still the leading cause of invasive infections in neonates, specically they also seriously cause mortality and morbidity with underlying diseases in adults. Curently, there are ten GBS serotypes (Ia, Ib, and II-IX) and the resistance characteristic of GBS is important to clinical treatment.

Finger millet or ragi is the primary food source for millions of people in tropical dry land regions of Africa and Asia. Two field experiments were conducted to study the genotypic variation for silicon accumulation and the effect of foliar applied silicic acid on growth, nutrient uptake and blast disease resistance of ragi. Study showed a significant varietal variation for Si accumulation with an average Si content of 1.67 % in the above ground part.

A field experiment was conducted at Boodamanahalli village, (Bangalore rural district) to know the effect of tikka disease, caused together by Cercospora arachidicola and Cercosporidium personatum on biochemical parameters viz., total sugars, total phenols and total proteins as influenced by different sowing dates in groundnut. It included two varieties, TMV-2 a highly susceptible one and GBPD-4 a resistant with nine sowing dates starting from December 2008 to August 2009 at monthly intervals.

Recently, a novel plaque-associated protein, collagenous Alzheimer amy-loid plaque component (CLAC), was identified in brains from patients with Alzheimer’s disease. CLAC is derived from a type II transmembrane colla-gen precursor protein, termed CLAC-P (collagen XXV). The biological function and the contribution of CLAC to the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease and plaque formation are unknown.

Saccharomyces cerevisiaehas been used as a model system to characterize the effect of cytochromebmutations found in fungal and oomycete plant pathogens resistant to Qo inhibitors (QoIs), including the strobilurins, now widely employed in agriculture to control such diseases. Specific residues in the Qosite of yeast cytochromebwere modified to obtain four new forms mimicking the Qobinding site of Erysiphe graminis, Venturia inaequalis, Sphaerotheca fuligi-neaandPhytophthoramegasperma.

The spontaneous acquisition of resistance to a variety of unrelated cytotoxic compounds has important implications in medical treatment of infectious diseases and anticancer therapy. In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiaethis pheno-menon is caused by overexpression of membrane efflux pumps and is called pleiotropic drug resistance. We have found that allelic forms of the genes for the transcription activators Pdr1p and Pdr3p, designated PDR1-12and PDR3-33,respectively, mediate resistance to diazaborine....

We have shown that the ABC transporter, multiple drug resistance protein 1 (MDR1, P-glycoprotein) translocates glucosyl ceramide from the cytosolic to the luminal Golgi surface for neutral, but not acidic, gly-cosphingolipid (GSL) synthesis. Here we show that the MDR1 inhibitor, cyclosporin A (CsA) can deplete Gaucher lymphoid cell lines of accumu-lated glucosyl ceramide and Fabry cell lines of globotriaosyl ceramide (Gb3), by preventing de novosynthesis.

Streptococcus pneumoniaeis one of the major pathogens worldwide. The use of currently available antibiotics to treat pneumococcal diseases is ham-pered by increasing resistance levels; also, capsular polysaccharide-based vaccination is of limited efficacy. Therefore, it is desirable to find targets for the development of new antimicrobial drugs specifically designed to fight pneumococcal infections.

Prion diseases are neurodegenerative disorders which cause Creutzfeldt– Jakob disease in humans, scrapie in sheep and bovine spongiform encephalopathy in cattle. The infectious agent is a protease resistant iso-form (PrP Sc ) of a host encoded prion protein (PrP C ). PrP Sc proteins are characterized according to size and glycoform pattern.

Several lines of evidence suggest that polymerization of the amyloidb-pep-tide (Ab) into amyloid plaques is a pathogenic event in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Abis produced from the amyloid precursor protein as the result of sequential proteolytic cleavages by b-secretase and c-secretase, and it has been suggested that these enzymes could be targets for treatment of AD.
