Spatial and temporal activation of spinal glial cells: Role of gliopathy in central neuropathic pain following spinal cord injury in rats

TL;DR: Time and regional dependence of glial activation and activation mechanisms in various SCI models in rats are described and demonstrated that dysfunctional glia, a condition called "gliopathy", is a key contributor in the underlying cellular mechanisms contributing to neuropathic pain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Study to find the best extraction solvent for use with guava leaves (Psidium guajava L.) for high antioxidant efficacy.

TL;DR: The antioxidant ability of guava leaf extracts has a strong relationship with phenolic compound content rather than flavonoid content, and hydroethanolic solvent was observed to be the most effective solvent showing high antioxidant ability.
Journal ArticleDOI

The enhancement of PCR amplification of a random sequence DNA library by DMSO and betaine: application to in vitro combinatorial selection of aptamers

TL;DR: A combination of 1 M betaine and 5% DMSO improves the PCR amplification by increasing the ratio of full-length products to shortened products, which are a consequence of nonuniform amplification due to stable secondary structures in the templates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Combinatorial selection of a single stranded DNA thioaptamer targeting TGF-β1 protein

TL;DR: The aptamer selection procedure was designed to modify the backbone of single-stranded DNA aptamers, where 5' of both A and C are phosphorothioates, since this provides enhanced nuclease resistance as well as higher affinity than that of a phosphate counterpart.
Journal ArticleDOI

The evidence that the DNC (SLC25A19) is not the mitochondrial deoxyribonucleotide carrier

TL;DR: Evidence from enzyme kinetics, homologous yeast protein alignments, gene knockout studies, and clinical samples from Amish Microcephaly patients consistently points to the conclusion that SLC25A19 is not the true mitochondrial DNC gene.
