Excretory-secretory products (ESP) play an important role in the host biochemical defense by means of activities of detoxifying and antioxidant enzymes. The aim of this study was to evaluate praziquantel (PZQ) effects by detection of glutathione S- transferase (GST) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) enzymes activities in ESP samples of Fasciola spp. Fasciola gigantica and Fasciola hepatica a...

The pro-inflammatory cytokine, TNF-α, which plays a major role in the development and persistence of inflammatory diseases, is the basis for the use of anti-TNF-α therapies. The neutralization of TNF-α or blockage of its binding to the corresponding receptor has mainly served as a therapeutic strategy against some diseases. This study aimed to investigate the production of a humanized single ch...

5-Lipoxygenase-activating protein (FLAP) and leukotriene C4 (LTC4) synthase, two proteins involved in leukotriene biosynthesis, have been demonstrated to be 31% identical at the amino acid level. We have recently identified and characterized a novel member of the FLAP/LTC4 synthase gene family termed microsomal glutathione S-transferase II (microsomal GST-II). The open reading frame encodes a 1...

The Liberal commitment to replace the goods and services tax (GST) with a better tax has been studied by the House of Commons Finance Committee. The question of alternatives to the GST is not a new one. Prior to its introduction in 1991, a minority of tax experts questioned the wisdom of the federal government’s determination to go ahead with the GST.1 Some developed detailed proposals that wou...

Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) play versatile functions in multiple aspects of plant growth and development. A comprehensive genome-wide survey of this gene family in the genomes of G. raimondii and G. arboreum was carried out in this study. Based on phylogenetic analyses, the GST gene family of both two diploid cotton species could be divided into eight classes, and approximately all the GS...

Glutathione S-transferase (GST), an enzyme system which conjugates glutathione to a vanety of xenobiotics with electrophllic centres was found dunng the GEEP Workshop m the digesbve glands of the s n d httorina httorea and the mussel Myllus edulis, and in the hepatopancreas of the crab Carcinus maenas GST activity was significantly higher in crabs from 2 polluted sites m Langesundfjord Norway r...

Glycolate oxidase is a peroxisomal flavoprotein catalyzing the oxidation of glycolate to glyoxylate and plays crucial metabolic roles in green algae, plants, animals. It could serve as biocatalyst for enzymatic production glyoxylate, fine chemical with wide variety applications perfumery, flavor, pharmaceutical agrochemical industries. However, low catalytic activity native levels active enzyme...

The linearization approach is used in this contribution to acquire the answers variable frequency oscillator equation as well modified Ivey's equation. Differential forms (DF) and generalized Sundman transformation (GST) are two techniques that considered. It found cannot be linearized using differential forms, while for a can. However, GST, can linearized.
