The authors described two phases in PQ hepatotoxicity, the first being due to accumulation of PQ and manifested by hepatocellular injury, and the second characterized by cholangiocellular and cholestatic damage related to the excretion of PQ into the bile or by absorption via enterohepatic circulation, with subsequent elimination into bile.
Physiologic cluster analysis identified three clusters, two of which were EM predominant and the third characterized by a heterogeneous combination of EM and BE.
Here, Blm10 plays an important role and represents the first characterized nuclear transporter which particularly facilitates nuclear import of mature CP.
Taken together, our data show that TfuDyP is a novel member of the growing superfamily of bacterial peroxidases (previously DyP-type peroxidases) and represents the first characterized substrate protein of the T. fusca Tat system.
In conclusion, the data show that TfuDyP is indeed a bona fide DyP-type peroxidase and also represents the first characterized substrate protein of the T. fusca Tat system.
The MHT was not sensitive for detection of NDM activity; 3 isolates were positive only for 1 carbapenem tested, and K. pneumoniae 0S-506, the first characterized NDM-producing isolate (13 ), was negative for both carbapenems.
To describe the theoretical trajectories of the aging process, Rowe and Kahn (1987) described three curves: the first characterized by disease and disability; the second, known as "usual aging", characterized by absence of overt pathology but presence of some decline in function; and the last, the so-called "successful aging", with little or no physiological loss and no pathology.
There are several groups of PRRs, the first characterized, and so far the most studied group, are the Toll-like receptors (TLRs) [ 5].
The protein BILBO1 was the first characterized and remains the only known component of the flagellar pocket collar, with essential functions in the biogenesis of both the flagellar pocket and flagellar pocket collar.
