BACKGROUND Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is hypothesized to alter atherosclerotic plaque composition, with potential development of high-risk plaque (HRP). EAT can be measured by volumetric assessment (EAT-v) or linear thickness (EAT-t). We performed a systematic review and random-effects meta-analysis to assess the association of EAT with HRP and whether this association is dependent on the ...

7-Hydroxy-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran derivatives, metabolites of a carbamate insecticide carbofuran, and five other phenolic inhibitors of indoleacetic acid (IAA) oxidase interfered with IAA-induced spectral change in the Soret band of horseradish peroxidase (HRP). The onset of IAA degradation required transformed HRP intermediates. The inhibitors, when added before IAA, protected HRP from reacting ...

Conjugates of ricin agglutinin and phytohemagglutinin with horseradish peroxidase (HRP) were used for a cytochemical study of internalization of their plasma membrane "receptors" in cultured isolated mouse dorsal root ganglion neurons. Labeling of cells with lectin-HRP was done at 4 degrees C, and internalization was performed at 37 degrees C in a culture medium free of lectin-HRP. 15-20 min af...

Background—The nature of the breakdown products produced in enterocytes during epithelial transport of intact proteins may be critical in determining the functional consequences of protein absorption. Aim—(a) To measure the transepithelial transport of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and to identify the nature of HRP breakdown products released on the basal side of enterocytes and (b) to assess th...

Biocatalysis based effluent treatment has outclassed the presently favored physico-chemical treatments due to nil sludge production and monetary savings. Azo dyes are commonly employed in the leather industry and pose a great threat to the environment. Here, we show the degradation of C. I. Acid blue 113 using horseradish peroxidase (HRP) assisted with H2O2 as a co-substrate. It was observed th...

This thesis describes a new adaptive approximation technique called high resolution pursuit (HRP), and demonstrates how HRP can be used to extract features that are suitable for object recognition. Recently, adaptive approximation techniques have become popular for obtaining representations of large classes of signals. These techniques include method of frames, matching pursuit, and basis pursu...

Biotechnology applications of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) would benefit from access to tailor-made variants with greater specific activity, lower K(m) for peroxide, and higher thermostability. Starting with a mutant that is functionally expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, we used random mutagenesis, recombination, and screening to identify HRP-C mutants that are more active and stable to in...

Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) is a commercially important reagent enzyme used in molecular biology and in the diagnostic product industry. It is typically purified from the roots of the horseradish (Armoracia rusticana); however, this crop is only available seasonally, yields are variable and often low, and the product is a mixture of isoenzymes. Engineering high-level expression in transiently ...

In this paper nickel oxide (NiO) nanoflower was synthesized and used for the realization of direct electrochemistry of horseradish peroxidase (HRP). By using carbon ionic liquid electrode (CILE) as the substrate electrode, NiO-HRP composite was casted on the surface of CILE with chitosan (CTS) as the film forming material and the modified electrode was denoted as CTS/NiO-HRP/CILE. UV-Vis absorp...

Galactosylated BSA (galBSA) and its conjugate to horseradish peroxidase (galBSA-HRP) enter the galactose-specific pathway of hepatocytes. 10 min after intravenous injection, structures containing either ligand sediment mostly between 33,000 and 3 X 10(6) g X min (LP fraction) and have an equilibrium density of 1.11-1.13 g/ml in sucrose gradients (Quintart, J., P. J. Courtoy, J. N. Limet, and P....
