The sulfhydryl groups responsible for bilitranslocase transport activity respond to the interaction of the carrier with bilirubin and functional analogues.

TL;DR: Both inactivation of sulfobromophthalein transport in rat liver plasma membrane vesicles by sulfhydryl group reagents and subsequent reactivation by 2-mercaptoethanol are shown to be modulated by ligands to bilitranslocase.
Journal ArticleDOI

Capsicum annuum var. grossum (Bell Pepper) Inhibits β-Secretase Activity and β-Amyloid1–40 Aggregation

TL;DR: Investigation of the effects of polyphenol-rich extracts from bell pepper on amyloid production and aggregation in vitro revealed that phenolic extracts from pepper fruits could counteract the initial aggregation of Aβ1-40, as well as prevent further aggregation preformed fibrils.
Journal ArticleDOI

Expression of Kidney and Liver Bilitranslocase in Response to Acute Biliary Obstruction

TL;DR: The higher renal expression and function of bilitranslocase in renal basolateral membranes from rats with obstructive cholestasis might also contribute to the dramatic increase in BSP renal excretion observed in this experimental model.
Journal ArticleDOI

Opinion on the re-evaluation of ascorbyl palmitate (E 304i) as a food additive in foods for infants below 16 weeks of age and the follow-up of its re-evaluation as a food additive for uses in foods for all population groups

TL;DR: The Panel concluded that the intake of lecithins (E 322) as a food additive in infant formula belonging to FC 13.1.1 does not raise safety concerns up to the maximum permitted level (MPL), and it feasible to amend the EU specifications, in particular for the toxic elements arsenic, lead, mercury and introduce new specifications for cadmium and microbiological criteria.
