Abstract Polyurethane (PU) and PU/multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) nanocomposite nanofibers, both with diameters of 350 nm, were prepared by an electrospinning process from PU dimethylformamide solutions. The appearance of nanowebs in PU/MWCNT nanofiber structures containing PU fibers with diameters of 20–40 nm was observed. The existence of these structures could have been based on the occurrence of strong secondary electric fields, which were created between individual conducting MWCNTs (distributed ...

Abstract Bacteria of the genera Pseudomonas and Bacillus can promote plant growth and protect plants from pathogens. However, the interactions between these plant-beneficial bacteria are understudied. Here, we explore the interaction between Bacillus subtilis 3610 and Pseudomonas chlororaphis PCL1606. We show that the extracellular matrix protects B. subtilis colonies from infiltration by P. chlororaphis . The absence of extracellular matrix results in increased fluidity and loss of structure of the ...

Meconium aspiration in newborns causes lung inflammation and injury, which may lead to meconium aspiration syndrome (MAS). In this study, the effect of the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine on respiratory and inflammatory parameters were studied in a model of MAS. Oxygen-ventilated rabbits were intratracheally given 4 mL/kg of meconium (25 mg/mL) or saline. Thirty minutes later, meconium-instilled animals were administered N-acetylcysteine (10 mg/kg; i.v.), or were left without treatment. The animals were ...

Genomewide scanning has been used to identify chromosomal regions encoding susceptibility loci to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The greatest evidence for linkage to IBD has been reported for a region of chromosome 12q14 surrounding the microsatellite marker D12S83, with a logarithm of odds score of 5.47 and a positive transmission disequilibrium test, and which was subsequently named IBD2. We wished to confirm this locus by genotyping the highly polymorphic microsatellites D12S1022, D12S1056, ...

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is one of the leading causes of death among adults in older age. Understanding mechanisms how organism responds to ischemia is essential for the ischemic patient’s prevention and treatment. Despite the great prevalence and incidence only a small number of studies utilize a metabolomic approach to describe AMI condition. Recent studies have shown the impact of metabolites on epigenetic changes, in these studies plasma metabolites were related to neurological outcome ...

Summary Oxidative stress and haemolysis‐associated nitric oxide ( NO ) depletion plays a crucial role in the development of vasculopathy in sickle cell anaemia ( SS ). However it remains unknown whether oxidative stress and haemolysis levels influence vascular function in patients with sickle haemoglobin C disease ( SC ). Microvascular response to heat (using Laser Doppler flowmetry on finger), oxidative stress biomarkers, NO metabolites, endothelin‐1 and haematological parameters were compared between patients ...

K + channel openers have been recently recognized for their ability to protect mitochondria from anoxic injury. Yet the mechanism responsible for mitochondrial preservation under oxidative stress is not fully understood. Here, mitochondria were isolated from rat hearts and subjected to 20-min anoxia, followed by reoxygenation. At reoxygenation, increased generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was associated with reduced ADP-stimulated oxygen consumption, blunted ATP production, and disrupted mitochondrial ...

Reaction to stress requires feedback adaptation of cellular functions to secure a response without distress, but the molecular order of this process is only partially understood. Here, we report a previously unrecognized regulatory element in the general adaptation syndrome. Kir6.2, the ion-conducting subunit of the metabolically responsive ATP-sensitive potassium (K ATP ) channel, was mandatory for optimal adaptation capacity under stress. Genetic deletion of Kir6.2 disrupted K ATP channel-dependent ...

Failed banking sector policies and weak regulatory policies are the keys to the collapse of the Czech economic “miracle.” Why were these policy errors made? Why has it taken so long to correct them? We examine the roles of economic interest groups, political institutions, technocratic economic ideology, and political leadership. Initially, economic interest group support provided broad liberal constraints on economic policy making. Within this context, neither political institutions nor technocratic ...

ABSTRACT Background Availability of assisted PD (asPD) increases access to dialysis at home, particularly for the increasing numbers of older and frail people with advanced kidney disease. Although asPD has been widely used in some European countries for many years, it remains unavailable or poorly utilized in others. A group of leading European nephrologists have therefore formed a group to drive increased availability of asPD in Europe and in their own countries. Methods Members of the group filled ...

The confident high-throughput identification of small molecules is one of the most challenging tasks in mass spectrometry-based metabolomics. Annotating the molecular formula of a compound is the first step towards its structural elucidation. Yet even the annotation of molecular formulas remains highly challenging. This is particularly so for large compounds above 500 daltons, and for de novo annotations, for which we consider all chemically feasible formulas. Here we present ZODIAC, a network-based ...

Metabolomics using nontargeted tandem mass spectrometry can detect thousands of molecules in a biological sample. However, structural molecule annotation is limited to structures present in libraries or databases, restricting analysis and interpretation of experimental data.

Abstract Lytic bacteriophages are valuable therapeutic agents against bacterial infections. There is continual effort to obtain new phages to increase the effectivity of phage preparations against emerging phage-resistant strains. Here we described the genomic diversity of spontaneous host-range mutants of kayvirus 812. Five mutant phages were isolated as rare plaques on phage-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains. The host range of phage 812-derived mutants was 42% higher than the wild type, ...

Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) may both affect the colon. However, in approximately 10-20% of these cases, it is impossible to distinguish between these two entities either clinically or histologically, and a diagnosis of indeterminate colitis (IC) is made. Correct diagnosis is important because surgical treatment and long-term prognosis differ for UC and CD. The purpose of this study was to determine the extent of interobserver agreement among board-certified pathologists and a specialist ...
