Usefulness of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide levels in predicting residual myocardial ischemia in patients with ST elevation acute myocard…
2007
N-terminal pro-b-type natriuretic peptide (NT pro-BNP) is a neurohormone synthesized predominantly in ventricular myocardium. In patients with symptoms of heart failure, elevation in NT pro-BNP accurately identifies ventricular dysfunction. However, NT pro-BNP levels are not specific for ventricular dysfunction in patients who do not have overt symptoms of heart failure, suggesting that other cardiac processes such as myocardial ischemia may also cause elevation in NT pro-BNP. The study was aimed to determine whether NT pro-BNP elevations are associated with myocardial ischemia.One hundred and thirty patients (104 males, 26 females, mean age 61+12 years), with ST elevation acute myocardial …

Additional file 2: Figure 1. LDL-C burden according to lomitapide or LA treatment. A Box plot graphs represent the median values of cumulative LDL-C burden in the Lomitapide cohort (dark grey) and in the LA cohort (light grey). For the total LDL-C burden calculation see Methods. P values are adjusted for age at follow-up, untreated LDL-C values and gender. B, C Box plot graphs represent the median values of TC and LDL-C burden at baseline and on-treatment. For baseline and on-treatment TC or LDL-C burden calculation see Methods. Δ% represents TC and LDL-c percent reduction from baseline and is reported with the respective statistical significance. B shows data form Lomitapide cohort whereas…
Data from: Ergosterol biosynthesis: a fungal pathway for life on land?
2012
Sterols, essential lipids of most eukaryotic cells, ensure important structural and signaling functions. The selection pressure which has led to different dominant sterols in the three eukaryotic kingdoms remains unknown. Here we investigated the influence of the progression in the different steps of the ergosterol biosynthetic pathway (EBP) on the yeast resistance to transitions from aqueous to aerial media, typical perturbations of the higher fungi habitats. Five mutants of the EBP (ergΔ), accumulating different sterol intermediates in the EBP, and the WT strain were exposed to drying under atmospheric air or nitrogen and wetting. Results show that the progression in the EBP parallels an …

Data from: Not only for egg yolk - functional and evolutionary insights from expression, selection and structural analyses of Formica ant vitellogeni…
2015
Vitellogenin, a storage protein, has been extensively studied for its egg-yolk precursor role, and it has been suggested to be fundamentally involved in caste differences in social insects. More than one vitellogenin copy has been reported in several oviparous species, including ants. However, the number and function of different vitellogenins, their phylogenetic relatedness and their role in reproductive queens and non-reproductive workers has been studied in few species only. We studied caste biased expression of vitellogenins in seven Formica ant species. Only one copy of conventional vitellogenin was identified in Formica species, and three vitellogenin homologues, derived from ancient …
Data from: Microbiome symbionts and diet diversity incur costs on the immune system of insect larvae
2017
Communities of symbiotic microorganisms that colonize the gastrointestinal tract play an important role in food digestion and protection against opportunistic microbes. Diet diversity increases the number of symbionts in the intestines, a benefit that is considered to impose no cost for the host organism. However, less is known about the possible immunological investments that hosts have to make in order to control the infections caused by symbiont populations that increase due to diet diversity. By using taxonomical composition analysis of the 16S rRNA V3 region, we show that Enterococci are the dominating group of bacteria in the midgut of the larvae of the greater wax moth (Galleria mell…
