REDOX PROPERTIES ARE CONSERVED IN RUBISCOS FROM DIATOMS AND GREEN ALGAE THROUGH A DIFFERENT PATTERN OF CYSTEINES1

2010

Eukaryotic RUBISCO appears in two sequence-diverging forms, known as red-like (present in nongreen algae) and green-like (of green algae and higher plants) types. Oxidation of cysteines from green-like RUBISCOs is known to result in conformational changes that inactivate the enzyme and render a relaxed structure more prone to proteolytic attack. These changes may have regulatory value for green algae and higher plants, promoting RUBISCO catabolism under stress conditions. We compare here red-like RUBISCOs from several diatoms with a representative green-like RUBISCO from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, paying special attention to the cysteine-dependent redox properties. Purified diatom RUBISCO p…

Delayed, diffuse acute peritonitis secondary to misplacement of a cystogastrostomic "pigtail" drain in an outpatient after discharge.

2017

Background and aim of the work: Pancreatic pseudocyst endoscopic drainage by pancreatogastrostomy “pigtail” drain placement is spreading worldwide, with high success-rate and low morbidity, and is increasingly performed as outpatient procedure. The paper reports an unusual very early complication of this procedure and discusses the peculiar aspects of this event in an outpatient setting. Methods: The first case of a 56-year-old outpatient developing a postoperative diffused acute peritonitis by gastric juice spilling caused by the misplacement of the distal end of two transgastric drains not reaching the pseudocyst is reported. As the case was programmed as outpatient and acute peritonitis …

CT and MR imaging of cystic renal lesions

2020

AbstractCystic renal lesions are a common incidental finding on routinely imaging examinations. Although a benign simple cyst is usually easy to recognize, the same is not true for complex and multifocal cystic renal lesions, whose differential diagnosis includes both neoplastic and non-neoplastic conditions. In this review, we will show a series of cases in order to provide tips to identify benign cysts and differentiate them from malignant ones.

Temperature effects explain continental scale distribution of cyanobacterial toxins

2018

Insight into how environmental change determines the production and distribution of cyanobacterial toxins is necessary for risk assessment. Management guidelines currently focus on hepatotoxins (microcystins). Increasing attention is given to other classes, such as neurotoxins (e.g., anatoxin-a) and cytotoxins (e.g., cylindrospermopsin) due to their potency. Most studies examine the relationship between individual toxin variants and environmental factors, such as nutrients, temperature and light. In summer 2015, we collected samples across Europe to investigate the effect of nutrient and temperature gradients on the variability of toxin production at a continental scale. Direct and indirect…

Rękopisy liturgiczne źródłem do badań historycznych

2016

Z okresu średniowiecza zachowały się liturgiczne rękopisy z wielu ośrodków kościelnych Polski i Śląska. Po dziewiętnastowiecznych sekularyzacjach dóbr kościelnych, zgromadzono je w różnych archiwach i bibliotekach. Liczne rękopisy z terenu Śląska zostały już opisane inne czekają jeszcze na analizę. W średniowiecznej liturgii korzystano z wielu ksiąg: graduałów, lekcjonarzy, ewangeliarzy, homiliarzy, psałterzy, hymnarzy, antyfonarzy, sermologów, pasjonałów, legendarzy, sakramentarzy, pontyfikałów, rytuałów, agend, martyrologium a pod koniec średniowiecza pierwszych mszałów i brewiarzy. Szczególnie cenne są kodeksy należące do grupy Liber Ordinarius. Zachowane rękopisy stanowią one bardzo bog…

Parasitosis intestinales en pacientes con malabsorción a lactosa y/o fructosa. Valoración del efecto de la terapia combinada

2019

La malabsorción de carbohidratos entre adultos es cada vez más frecuente. Estudios recientes sugieren una relación entre las parasitosis intestinales y el desarrollo de estos procesos patológicos. Las enteroparasitosis provocan cambios en la mucosa intestinal asociados con mala digestión y malabsorción de los alimentos. Este estudio ha analizado la frecuencia de parásitos intestinales en individuos adultos con trastornos gastrointestinales crónicos y diagnóstico de malabsorción a carbohidratos mediante el test de aliento. Para el diagnostico parasitológico se combinaron técnicas convencionales con moleculares. Los parásitos detectados fueron: Giardia intestinalis (24,4%), Blastocystis sp. (…
