A polysaccharide isolated from Strongylocentrotus nudus eggs (SEP) reportedly displays immune activity in vivo. Here, its effect and underlying mechanism in the treatment of pancreatic cancer were investigated. SEP obviously inhibited pancreatic cancer growth by activating NK cells in vitro/vivo

A novel NADPH-dependent enoyl reductase, catalyzing the conversion of 1-cyclohexenylcarbonyl coenzyme A (1-cyclohexenylcarbonyl-CoA) to cyclohexylcarbonyl-CoA, was purified to homogeneity from Streptomyces collinus. This enzyme, a dimer with subunits of identical M(r) (36,000), exhibits a Km of 1.5 +/- 0.3 microM

Interstitial Cystitis/Bladder Pain Syndrome (IC/BPS) is a chronic inflammatory disease without consistently effective treatment. We investigate the role of toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) on voiding dysfunction and inflammation in the cyclophosphamide (CYP)-induced mouse cystitis. Male C57BL/6 [wild-type, (WT)] and/or TLR4

A possible pathway for the anaerobic utilization of benzoic acid by a methanogenic consortium is suggested. Cyclohexane carboxylic acid and 1-cyclohexene-1-carboxylic acid have been identified as intermediates before ring rupture. Suprisingly, 3-cyclohexene-1-carboxylic acid interferes with utilization of other cyclic acids.

The metabolism of benzoate, cyclohex-1-ene carboxylate, and cyclohexane carboxylate by "Syntrophus aciditrophicus" in cocultures with hydrogen-using microorganisms was studied. Cyclohexane carboxylate, cyclohex-1-ene carboxylate, pimelate, and glutarate (or their coenzyme A [CoA] derivatives) transiently accumulated during growth with benzoate. Identification was
