According to the state of mitochondrial respiration, the respiratory chain generates superoxide anions converted into hydrogen peroxide. Two uncoupling proteins (UCP) able to modulate the coupling… (More)
The bradykinin B1-receptor is strongly upregulated under chronic inflammatory conditions. However, the mechanism and reason are not known. Because a better understanding of the mechanism of the… (More)
Human African trypanosomiasis is a lethal disease caused by the extracellular parasite Trypanosoma brucei. The proteins secreted by T. brucei inhibit the maturation of dendritic cells and their… (More)
Tau protein plays a major role in neurodegenerative disorders, appears to be a central biomarker of neuronal injury in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and is a promising target for Alzheimer's disease… (More)
Alpha-amylase is a major and well-characterized component of human saliva. Recent proteomic studies suggested that this protein could be observed in more than twenty spots on 2-D gels of salivary… (More)
Recent characterization of the whole saliva proteome led to contradictory pictures concerning the complexity of its proteome. In this work, 110 proteins were analysed by mass spectrometry allowing… (More)
BACKGROUND
Although the use of human saliva for diagnosing disease has been known to be of great clinical potential, few attempts have been made so far to develop its use. In this work, we developed… (More)
Prolonged enteral or parenteral nutrition in neonatal periods sometimes results in eating difficulties persisting for years, with reduced food intake through the oral route and thereby reduced… (More)
Thanks to proteomics investigations, our vision of the role of different protein isoforms in the pathophysiology of diseases has largely evolved. The idea that protein biomarkers like tau, amyloid… (More)
Proteomics studies typically aim to exhaustively detect peptides/proteins in a given biological sample. Over the past decade, the number of publications using proteomics methodologies has exploded.… (More)
