Changes in the natural abundance of 13CO2/12CO2 in breath due to lipopolysacchride-induced acute phase response.
The natural abundance of carbon-13 in blood proteins increases during the cachectic state and may be a biomarker for disease status. We hypothesized a corresponding drop in the relative abundance of 13C in breath CO2. Using the lipopolysacchride (LPS)-induced endotoxemia model of the acute cachectic state, we demonstrated that the acute phase response causes shifts in the stable isotopes of car...
متن کاملMorphological changes and induction of antifungal resistance in Aspergillus fumigatus due to different CO2 levels
Background and Purpose: Aspergillosis is one of the most common opportunistic fungal infections in immunocompromised and neutropenic patients. Aspergillus fumigatus (A. fumigatus) is the most common causative agent of this infection. Due to variable CO2 concentrations that pathogens are exposed to during the infection process and to understand the role of CO2, we examined the effects of various...
متن کاملPseudohyphae formation in Candida glabrata due to CO2 exposure
Background and Purpose: Formation of pseudohyphae is considered a virulence factor in Candida species. Generally, Candida glabrata grows as budding yeast cells; however, reports illustrated that C. glabrata could form pseudohyphal cells in response to some stimuli. In this study, we provided insight into the ability of C. glabrata in forming pseudohyphal cells under different levels of carbon d...
متن کاملNon-(13)CO2 targeted breath tests: a feasibility study.
Breath tests allow a non-invasive and fast diagnostic of different specific enzymes' phenotypic functionality. Over the last decade several 13C-breath tests were successfully tested, with the (13)C-urea breath test being approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Agency (EMA). The use of other targets than labeled (13)CO2 in exhaled breath offers additional...
متن کاملDecomposition of Changes in CO2 Emission in Iranian Provinces
In this study, we used the Shephard distance functions to analyze environmental technical efficiency and decomposition of Changes in CO2 Emissions to Five factors: “technical efficiency change effect, technical change effect, and emission indexes associated with capital, labor and energy “in 28 provinces of Iran for the period 2003-2013. Our study used panel data and data envelopment analysis t...
