The unprecedented surge of developing meat analogues and other alternative protein products in the past few years has occurred amidst numerous technological challenges. creation fibril structure flavour from non-muscle proteinaceous sources to mimic fresh processed requires a clear understanding fundamental differences between muscle proteins. Currently, plant-based alternatives are dominating ...

Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is an osseous growth dis-order, producing immature bone and characte-rized by the replacement of normal bone with fibro-osseous connective tissue. It is a bone dys-plasia that has the potential to cause significant cosmetic and functional disturbances, particularly in the craniofacial skeleton. Cra-niofacial fibrous dysplasia is one of the three types of polyostotic fibro...

In this study, we investigated the role of ovalbumin (OVA), ovotransferrin (OVT), and lysozyme (LYZ) as major proteins involved in heat-induced gelation egg white. OVT LYZ deficient white (OLdEW) solutions were prepared from raw (REW) subjected to heat treatment at 64 °C centrifugation. OLdEW had almost same native-OVA protein REW, confirmed by gel electrophoresis, differential scanning calorim...

The folding of beta-structured, fibrous proteins is a largely unexplored area. A class of such proteins is used by viruses as adhesins, and recent studies revealed novel beta-structured motifs for them. We have been studying the folding and assembly of adenovirus fibers that consist of a globular C-terminal domain, a central fibrous shaft, and an N-terminal part that attaches to the viral capsi...

OBJECTIVE Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of human atherosclerosis but its actions during lesion progression are poorly understood. Smad2, Smad3, and Smad4 proteins are signaling molecules by which TGF-beta modulates gene transcription. Our objective was to define the actions of TGF-beta during lesion progression in humans by examining the expr...

Pathogenesis of Fibrosis with Chronic Hepatitis C: Hepatic fibrosis is a dynamic scarring process in which chronic inflammation stimulates production and accumulation of collagen and extracellular matrix proteins. The hepatic stellate cells are the primary cells responsible for producing these extracellular matrix proteins. Over time, with chronic hepatitis C infection, the total collagen conte...

ABSTRACT: Silk is a biomaterial which fibrous protein with remarkable mechanical properties produced in fibre formed by silkworms and spiders. Apart from being fine biomaterial, it has also been used since past few centuries as sutures medical surgeries due to its advantages healing antimicrobial activity avoid infection. material successful various modern areas.1 Here the researchers attempt s...
