The non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic risk of arsenic lead to adults children via daily dietary intake food composites in Bangladesh was estimated. target hazard quotients (THQs), index (HI) (TR) were calculated evaluate the health from lead. Most individual contain a considerable amount highest mean concentrations found cereals (0.254 mg kg⁻¹ fw) vegetables (0.250 fw), (0.714 fish (0.326 fw). results showed THQs for both which exceeded safe limit (> 1) indicating that are main items...

Background —Monocyte-endothelium adhesion is a crucial early event in atherogenesis. Several reports indicate that α-tocopherol (AT) potent antioxidant plasma and LDL also has intracellular effects are antiatherogenic. Recently, it been shown AT supplementation results decreased monocyte–endothelial cell adhesion. However, there paucity of data on the mechanisms by which inhibits monocytes. We studied effect enrichment human monocytic line, U937, to umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs)....

An assay method for GDP-L-Fuc:N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminide alpha 1-6fucosyltransferase (alpha 1-6FucT; EC 2.4.1.68) activity has been developed, involving a fluorescent pyridylaminated substrate. A glycopeptide derived from bovine gamma-globulin was coupled with 4-(2-pyridylamino)butylamine (PABA) through the peptide bond, and following substrate obtained. [equation: see text] The guanosine diphospho-fucopyranoside (GDP-Fuc) were incubated crude enzyme extract 2 h, then enzymatic product...

Surfactant protein-A (SP-A) gene expression in human fetal lung type II cells is stimulated by cAMP and IL-1 inhibited glucocorticoids. cAMP/IL-1 stimulation of SP-A mediated increased binding thyroid transcription factor-1 nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB to the TTF-1-binding element (TBE) promoter. This associated with decreased histone deacetylases (HDACs), recruitment coactivators, enhanced acetylation H3 (K9,14) at TBE. In present study, endogenous glucocorticoid receptor (GR) was found...

High grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) is the most common and aggressive malignancy. Accumulating evidence indicates that HGSOC may originate from human fallopian tube epithelial cells (FTECs), although exact pathogen(s) and/or molecular mechanism underlying malignant transformation of FTECs unclear. Here we show papillomavirus (HPV), which could reach via retrograde menstruation or sperm-carrying, interacts with yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) to drive FTECs. HPV prevents natural...

Abstract The human surfactant protein-A2 (hSP-A2) gene is developmentally regulated, expressed in type II pneumonocytes, and induced by cAMP. cAMP induction of hSP-A2 expression O2 dependent mediated increased phosphorylation, DNA binding, transcriptional activation thyroid transcription factor-1 (TTF-1). TTF-1-binding element (TBE) at −175 bp contains a reverse-oriented nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) binding site. IL-1 SP-A lung cells had additive stimulatory effects with Nuclear extracts from...

The double stranded RNA binding protein Adad1 (adenosine deaminase domain containing 1) is a member of the adenosine acting on RNAs (Adar) family with germ cell-specific expression. In mice, necessary for sperm differentiation, however its function outside mammals has not been investigated. Here, through an N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU) based forward genetic screen, we identified adad1 mutant zebrafish line that develops as sterile males. Further histological examination revealed complete lack...

Oxidative stress has been implicated in the pathogenesis of various cardiovascular diseases, including ischemic heart disease and failure. The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) agonist improves insulin sensitivity limits tissue inflammation cellular apoptosis, but there are few data on relationship between PPARγ agonist, rosiglitazone (RSG), thioredoxin (TRx) system oxidatively stressed cardiomyocytes (CMCs). Here we provide evidence that RSG protects rat CMCs from...

Induction of surfactant protein-A (SP-A) gene expression in fetal lung type II cells by cAMP and IL-1 is mediated increased binding thyroid transcription factor-1 (TTF-1) NF-B proteins p50 p65 to the TTF-1-binding element (TBE) at -183 bp. In cell transfections, dexamethasone (Dex) markedly inhibits cAMP-induced rabbit SP-A:human growth hormone (hGH) fusion genes containing as little 300 bp SP-A 5'-flanking sequence. Dex inhibition blocked RU-486, suggesting a role glucocorticoid receptor...

Mungbean is one of the important pulse crops in Bangladesh. More than 12 species insect pests infest mungbean, among them flea beetle cause significant yield loss due to attack from seedling vegetative stages. The experiment was conducted find out tolerant and susceptible varieties mungbean against at farmer’s field Patuakhali, Bangladesh January April 2016. Results revealed that BARI Mung-4 had lowest abundance while BINA Moog-7 Mung-6 highest abundance. Among tested all varieties,...
