SirT1 Regulation of Antioxidant Genes Is Dependent on the Formation of a FoxO3a/PGC-1α Complex

TL;DR: It is found that SirT1 regulates the expression of several antioxidant genes in bovine aortic endothelial cells, including Mn superoxide dismutase, catalase, peroxiredoxins 3 and 5, and can be localized in the regulatory regions of these genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Citrate Transport System of Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis biovar diacetylactis Is Induced by Acid Stress

TL;DR: This acid stress response seems to provide L. lactis biovar diacetylactis with a selective advantage resulting from cometabolism of glucose and citrate at low pHs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Activation of the Diacetyl/Acetoin Pathway in Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis bv. diacetylactis CRL264 by Acidic Growth

TL;DR: The results support that this biosynthetic pathway is induced at the transcriptional level by acidic growth conditions, presumably contributing to lactococcal pH homeostasis by synthesis of neutral compounds and by decreasing levels of pyruvate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Contribution of citrate metabolism to the growth of Lactococcus lactis CRL264 at low pH.

TL;DR: It was shown that the beneficial effect of citrate on growth under acid stress conditions is not primarily due to the concomitant alkalinization of the medium but stems from less expenditure of ATP, derived from glucose catabolism, to achieve pH homeostasis.

Citrate metabolism and aroma compound production in lactic acid bacteria
