Synthetic Polyclonal-Derived CDR Peptides as an Innovative Strategy in Glaucoma Therapy
2019
The pathogenesis of glaucoma is strongly associated with the occurrence of autoimmune-mediated loss of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and additionally, recent evidence shows that specific antibody-derived signature peptides are significantly differentially expressed in sera of primary-open angle glaucoma patients (POAG) compared to healthy controls. Synthetically antibody-derived peptides can modulate various effector functions of the immune system and act as antimicrobial or antiviral molecules. In an ex vivo adolescent glaucoma model, this study, for the first time, demonstrates that polyclonal-derived complementarity-determining regions (CDRs) can significantly increase the survival rate …
Optimization of a decellularized protocol of porcine tracheas. Long-term effects of cryopreservation. A histological study
2021
[EN] Objective: The aim of this study was to optimize a decellularization protocol in the trachea of Sus scrofa domestica (pig) as well as to study the effects of long-term cryopreservation on the extracellular matrix of decellularized tracheas. Methods: Porcine tracheas were decellularized using Triton X-100, SDC, and SDS alone or in combination. The effect of these detergents on the extracellular matrix characteristics of decellularized porcine tracheas was evaluated at the histological, biomechanical, and biocompatibility level. Morphometric approaches were used to estimate the effect of detergents on the collagen and elastic fibers content as well as on the removal of chondrocytes from …
Comparative Quantitative Analysis of Porcine Optic Nerve Head and Retina Subproteomes
2019
Optic nerve head (ONH) and retina (RET) are the main sites of damage in neurodegenerative optic neuropathies including glaucoma. Up to date, little is known about the molecular interplay between these two adjoining ocular components in terms of proteomics. To close this gap, we investigated ONH and RET protein extracts derived from porcine eyes (n = 12) (Sus scrofa domestica Linnaeus 1758) using semi-quantitative mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics comprising bottom-up LC&ndash
Paplašināta spektra β-laktamāzes kodējošo gēnu noteikšana Escherichia coli kultūrās, kas izolētas no mājas cūkām
2017
Darba mērķis bija izpētīt Pārtikas drošības, dzīvnieku veselības un vides zinātniskajā institūtā „BIOR” izolētas Escherichia coli kultūras, nosakot TEM, OXA, SHV, CTX-M I, CTX-M II, CTX-M IV, CMY II un DHA tipa β-laktamāzes gēnu klātbūtni baktēriju kultūru paraugos. Bakalaura darbs izstrādāts 2017. gadā zinātniskā institūta “BIOR” Dzīvnieku slimību diagnostikas laboratorijas Mikrobioloģijas nodaļā un Molekulārās bioloģijas nodaļā. Pētāmie paraugi (Escherichia coli kultūras) bija iegūti no mājas cūku (Sus scrofa domestica) aklo zarnu paraugiem 2016. un 2017. gada VPP “AgroBioRes” ietvaros. Kopā tika analizēti 68 Escherichia coli kultūru paraugi no dažādām saimniecībām. β-lactamāzeskodējošo g…
