Multimerization of thyroglobulin (TG) takes place extracellularly in the thyroid follicle lumen and is regarded as a mechanism to store TG at high concentrations. Human thyroglobulin (hTG) has been shown to multimerize mainly by intermolecular disulfide cross-links. We recently noted that TG of various mammalian species contains three highly conserved thioredoxin boxes (CXXC). This sequence is ...

The shape memory (SM) capabilities of nanocomposites based on two photocurable acrylated/methacrylated resins, doped with carbon nanotubes (CNTs), and manufactured by digital light processing 3D printing were investigated. mechanical properties glass transition temperature (Tg) can be tailored in a broad range varying the weight ratio resins (Tg ranging from 15 to 190 °C; Young’s modulus 1.5 25...

Control of reproductive development in crustaceans requires neuropeptides, ecdysone and methyl farnesoate (MF). A major source of neuropeptides is the X-organ-sinus gland (XO-SG) complex located in the eyestalk ganglia of crustaceans. The other regulatory factors (either peptides or neuromodulators) are produced in the brain and thoracic ganglia (TG). Two other regulatory non-peptide compounds,...

Thermal degradation of as electrospun chitosan membranes and samples subsequently treated with ethanol and cross-linked with glutaraldehyde (GA) have been studied by thermogravimetry (TG) coupled with an infrared spectrometer (FTIR). The influence of the electrospinning process and cross-linking in the electrospun chitosan thermal stability was evaluated. Up to three degradation steps were obse...

Filamentous tau inclusions are hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and related tauopathies, but earlier pathologies may herald disease onset. To investigate this, we studied wild-type and P301S mutant human tau transgenic (Tg) mice. Filamentous tau lesions developed in P301S Tg mice at 6 months of age, and progressively accumulated in association with striking neuron loss as well as hippocamp...
