A Proof-of-Concept Study to evaluate the benefit from add-on therapy with montelukast versus salmeterol in children with asthma carrying the Arg/Arg-16 β2-receptor genotype
… by β2 adrenoreceptor genotype (ADRB2). The arginine-16 (Arg 16) variant of this gene predisposes to exacerbations in asthmatic children and young adults, particularly in those exposed to regular salmeterol. There follows the presentation of a proof-of-principle randomised controlled trial of …

ApolipoproteinE-Sendai (Arg 145 ->Pro) : Expression, Reinigung und Charakterisierung einer Apolipoprotein E-Variante, die mit der Lipoprotein-Glomerulopathie assoziiert ist
… Patienten sind heterozygot für ApoE-Sendai(Arg145->Pro). ApoE-Varianten können ebenfalls eine Hyperlipoproteinämie(HLP)Typ III hervorrufen. Die rezessive Form der Typ III HLP wird durch ApoE2(Arg158->Cys) hervorgerufen, einer Mutante mit verminderter Bindung an den Low-Density …

Transport and utilization of arginine and arginine-containing peptides by rat alveolar macrophages
… pepT1-like transporter for the uptake of small arginine-containing peptides (ACPs) and utilized these peptides as direct substrates for nitric oxide (NO) production.;Method. A HPLC assay was developed for quantitative measurement of Arg and ACPs in rat plasma and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) …

Efficacy of dietary guanidinoacetic acid in broiler chicks
Three studies were conducted to determine the arginine (Arg) sparing effect of guanidinoacetic acid (GAA) and the efficacy of GAA to support growth performance and muscle phosphagen homeostasis in chicks when supplemented in either Arg-deficient or Arg-adequate diets. Study 1 established that 0.12% …

Dietary guanidino acetic acid spares arginine and dietary l-homoserine spares threonine in the chick
… is synthesized in the liver and kidney from Arg and Gly. It is subsequently methyllated by S-adenosylmethione to creatine. L-Homoserine (HS) has been identified as an intermediate compound in the metabolism of Thr, Met, and Asp. Bacteria, plants and yeast can synthesize Thr and Met from HS, …

Growth hormone and insulin response to intravenous arginine injection in the lamb
Crossbred lambs were injected with L-arginine hydrochloride (arg) to determine the effects of single of multiple arg challenges on growth hormone (GH) secretion. Indwelling jugular catheters were inserted. At the beginning of each of 3 trials, lambs were injected with saline and blood samples were …

Caractérisation des convertases furine/Pace et Pace4 pouvant être impliquées dans la maturation du précurseur proendothéline-1 humain
… connues pour maturer les précurseurs à des sites Arg-X-Lys/Arg-Arg. La furine est reconnue pour maturer plusieurs précurseurs dont le pro-?-NGF, gp160 de HIV-1, l'antigène protecteur de B. anthracis, le pro-facteur von Willebrand et le pro-TGF?. Les substrats de PACE4 sont inconnus. …

Excretion of Antibiotic Resistance Genes by Dairy Calves
… of selected antibiotic resistance genes (ARG) in the feces. Calves were blocked by breed, gender, and birth order, and assigned to one of three treatments at birth. Treatments were control (containing no antibiotics in the milk replacer), subtherapeutic (neomycin sulfate and …

Genetic studies of mutants of Neurospora crassa lacking ornithine transcarbamylase
Arginine has long been of interest to chemists, biochemists and biologists because of its close relation-ship to urea. Srb and Horowitz (1944) isolated many arginineless mutants of Neurospora crassa and found the mutants confirmed Krebs' claim (1932) that ornithine and citrulline are precursors in …

Synthesis of the small peptide analogues of cyclin dependent kinase (CDK4) for cancer treatment
… much attention as a potential therapeutic target in treating cancer because it is the key player in the control of cell proliferation. Comparison of the best model of CDK4 with the structures of CDK6 and CDK2 is shown difference in the cyclin-binding region and in overall electrostatic …

The effects of oral arginine supplementation on growth hormone, arginine, and somatomedin levels during energy restriction in male weight lifters
… lifters were used to study the effect of oral arginine consumption on growth hormone (hGH) , arginine (Arg), and somatomedin (IGF-1) concentrations. Subjects were randomly assigned to treatment or placebo groups. Following a week of controlled exercise and diet, fasted subjects took either an …

Investigating the relationship between lung cancer and the infection with the parasite Toxoplasma gondii
… study. Samples were tested with nested PCR targeting five T. gondii specific markers (B1, SAG1, SAG2 3′, SAG2 5′ and SAG3) and only one sample was positive for T. gondii infection with all five markers and then was further confirmed by IHC. Statistical analysis revealed an extremely …

Eimeria acervulina infection and amino acid nutrition in broiler chickens
… reductions in AID, with decreases observed for Arg, Tyr, Gln, and Asn and increases observed for Lys, Leu, Ile, Val, Pro, and Orn. Plasma α1-acid glycoprotein of broilers was not influenced by E. acervulina infection. In Experiment 2, the effects of supplementing copper, which can influence …
