Several immune functions are markers of health, biological age and predictors of longevity. A chronic oxidative and inflammatory state is the main cause of ageing and the immune system is involved in the rate of ageing. Thus, several murine models
A series of thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their ability to inhibit neuraminidase (NA) of influenza A virus. All the compounds were synthesized in good yields starting from commercially available l-cysteine hydrochloride using a suitable synthetic strategy.
Male mice on a diet supplemented with thioproline (l-thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid), a physiological metabolite of 5-hydroxytryptamine, at 2.0 g/kg of food from 28 weeks of age and for their entire life, showed a 23-29% increased median and maximal life span. These
The beta-turn is a common motif in both proteins and peptides and often a recognition site in protein interactions. A beta-turn of four sequential residues reverses the direction of the peptide chain and is classified by the phi and psi
