Toxic Peptides Occur Frequently in Pergid and Argid Sawfly Larvae
Toxic peptides containing D-amino acids are reported from the larvae of sawfly species. The compounds are suspected to constitute environmental contaminants, as they have killed livestock grazing in areas with congregations of such larvae, and related larval extracts are deleterious to ants. Previously, two octapeptides (both called lophyrotomin) and three heptapeptides (pergidin, 4-valinepergi...
متن کاملEpithelial Transport of Immunogenic and Toxic Gliadin Peptides In Vitro
SCOPE Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder caused by failure of oral tolerance against gluten in genetically predisposed individuals. The epithelial translocation of gluten-derived gliadin peptides is an important pathogenetic step; the underlying mechanisms, however, are poorly understood. Thus, we investigated the degradation and epithelial translocation of two different gliadin peptides,...
متن کاملEmoticons convey emotion in CMC
Expressing emotions in Computer-mediated communication is less social because of the lack of nonverbal cues unlike regular face-to-face communication. The use of emoticons or icons for visualizing emotions may be employed to replicate nonverbal facial expressions in CMC. This present research examined to what extent the use of emoticons (emotion icons) depends on social context (2:task-oriented...
متن کاملVentromedial thalamic neurons convey nociceptive signals from the whole body surface to the dorsolateral neocortex.
The somatosensory properties of ventromedial (VM) thalamic neurons were investigated in anesthetized rats by examining their responses to calibrated cutaneous stimuli. A population of neurons within the lateral part of the ventromedial thalamus (VMl) showed two peaks of activation after percutaneous electrical stimuli, regardless of which part of the body was stimulated. The early and late peak...
متن کاملArginine‐rich membrane‐permeable peptides are seriously toxic
The membrane-permeable peptides (MPP) such as undecapeptides TAT (YGRKKRRQRRR) and CTP (YGRRARRRRRR) have been receiving much attention for delivering various kinds of low membrane-permeability materials in vitro and in vivo. We have successfully used MPP in carrying various proteins through blood-brain barrier (BBB) in treatment of many kinds of nervous diseases. However, people always concent...
