Journal ArticleDOI
Anti-infection Peptidomics of Amphibian Skin
Jianxu Li,Xueqing Xu,Chunhua Xu,Weiping Zhou,Weiping Zhou,Keyun Zhang,Haining Yu,Ya-Ping Zhang,Yong-Tang Zheng,Huw H. Rees,Ren Lai,Ren Lai,Dong-Ming Yang,Jing Wu +13 more
TL;DR: The general opinion that 20–30 different antimicrobial peptides can protect an animal can be doubted and the strong capability of innate immunity and molecular genetics of amphibian ecological diversification is considered.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Staphylococcus aureus response to unsaturated long chain free fatty acids: survival mechanisms and virulence implications.
John Kenny,Deborah Ward,Elisabet Josefsson,Ing Marie Jonsson,Jason Hinds,Huw H. Rees,Jodi A. Lindsay,Andrej Tarkowski,Malcolm J. Horsburgh +8 more
TL;DR: Data indicate a common mode of action for long chain unsaturated fatty acids that involves disruption of the cell membrane, leading to interference with energy production within the bacterial cell.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure and significance of mandibular organ-inhibiting hormone in the crab, Cancer pagurus. Involvement in multihormonal regulation of growth and reproduction.
TL;DR: Comparison with previously sequenced crustacean neuropeptides shows that these MOIHs are members of the ever expanding crustACEan hyperglycemic hormone family, with significant sequence similarity to molt-inhibiting hormones (MIHs).
Journal ArticleDOI
Hypoxia-inducible myoglobin expression in nonmuscle tissues.
Jane Fraser,Luciane V. Mello,Deborah Ward,Huw H. Rees,Daryl R. Williams,Yongchang Fang,Andy Brass,Andrew Y. Gracey,Andrew R. Cossins +8 more
TL;DR: It is shown in a hypoxia-tolerant fish model, that Myg is also expressed in a range of other tissues, including liver, gill, and brain, and that expression of Myg transcript was substantially enhanced during chronic Hypoxia, the fold-change induction being far greater in liver than muscle.
Book ChapterDOI
Ecdysteroid Chemistry and Biochemistry
TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on the techniques used for ecdysteroid analysis and the biosynthesis and metabolism of these hormones, and the greatest diversity has been found in the eggs/embryos of Orthoptera and Lepidoptera.
