Modulation of CD44 Activity by A6-Peptide
Hyaluronan (HA) is a non-sulfated glycosaminoglycan distributed throughout the extracellular matrix that plays a major role in cell adhesion, migration, and proliferation. CD44, a multifunctional cell surface glycoprotein, is a receptor for HA. In addition, CD44 is known to interact with other receptors and ligands, and to mediate a number of cellular functions as well as disease progression. S...
متن کاملProbing structure-activity relationships in bactericidal peptide betapep-25.
Cationic peptides, known to disrupt bacterial membranes, are being developed as promising agents for therapeutic intervention against infectious disease. In the present study, we investigate structure-activity relationships in the bacterial membrane disruptor betapep-25, a peptide 33-mer. For insight into which amino acid residues are functionally important, we synthesized alanine-scanning vari...
متن کاملEnhanced bactericidal potency of nanoliposomes by modification of the fusion activity between liposomes and bacterium
BACKGROUND Pseudomonas aeruginosa represents a good model of antibiotic resistance. These organisms have an outer membrane with a low level of permeability to drugs that is often combined with multidrug efflux pumps, enzymatic inactivation of the drug, or alteration of its molecular target. The acute and growing problem of antibiotic resistance of Pseudomonas to conventional antibiotics made it...
متن کاملComparison of the bactericidal activity of different vertebrate sera.
Schwab, G. E. (University of Adelaide, Adelaide, South Australia), and P. R. Reeves. Comparison of the bactericidal activity of different vertebrate sera. J. Bacteriol. 91:106-112. 1966.-The bactericidal activity for gram-negative bacteria of normal sera from eight species of vertebrates was investigated to compare complement-mediated killing in sera from animals representing various classes of...
متن کاملTwo Major Medicinal Honeys Have Different Mechanisms of Bactericidal Activity
Honey is increasingly valued for its antibacterial activity, but knowledge regarding the mechanism of action is still incomplete. We assessed the bactericidal activity and mechanism of action of Revamil® source (RS) honey and manuka honey, the sources of two major medical-grade honeys. RS honey killed Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa within 2 hours, whereas manuka ...
