De Melo VU, Saldanha RR, Dos Santos CR, De Campos Cruz J, Lira VA, Santana-Filho VJ, Michelini LC.
PMID: 27790154
Front Physiol. 2016 Oct 13;7:461. doi: 10.3389/fphys.2016.00461. eCollection 2016.

The prevalence of cardiovascular diseases including hypertension increases dramatically in women after menopause, however the mechanisms involved remain incompletely understood. Oxytocinergic (OTergic) neurons are largely present within the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVN). Several studies have shown that...

Protein-bound polyphenols create "ghost" band artifacts during chemiluminescence-based antigen detection.

F1000Research

Plundrich N, Lila MA, Foegeding E, Laster S.
PMID: 28721200
F1000Res. 2017 Mar 13;6:254. doi: 10.12688/f1000research.10622.1. eCollection 2017.

Antigen detection during Western blotting commonly utilizes a horseradish peroxidase-coupled secondary antibody and enhanced chemiluminescent substrate. We utilized this technique to examine the impact of green tea-derived polyphenols on the binding of egg white protein-specific IgE antibodies from allergic...

Legume-rhizobia signal exchange: promiscuity and environmental effects.

Frontiers in microbiology

Lira MA, Nascimento LR, Fracetto GG.

BACKGROUND: A significant proportion of patients admitted for acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) that undergo volume reduction therapy are discharged with unchanged or increased bodyweight suggesting that the endpoints for these therapies are not optimally defined. We aimed to...

Tomato UDP-Glucose Sterol Glycosyltransferases: A Family of Developmental and Stress Regulated Genes that Encode Cytosolic and Membrane-Associated Forms of the Enzyme.

Frontiers in plant science

Ramirez-Estrada K, Castillo N, Lara JA, Arró M, Boronat A, Ferrer A, Altabella T.
PMID: 28649260
Front Plant Sci. 2017 Jun 09;8:984. doi: 10.3389/fpls.2017.00984. eCollection 2017.

Sterol glycosyltransferases (SGTs) catalyze the glycosylation of the free hydroxyl group at C-3 position of sterols to produce sterol glycosides. Glycosylated sterols and free sterols are primarily located in cell membranes where in combination with other membrane-bound lipids play...

ADH5-mediated NO bioactivity maintains metabolic homeostasis in brown adipose tissue.

Cell reports

Sebag SC, Zhang Z, Qian Q, Li M, Zhu Z, Harata M, Li W, Zingman LV, Liu L, Lira VA, Potthoff MJ, Bartelt A, Yang L.
PMID: 34788615
Cell Rep. 2021 Nov 16;37(7):110003. doi: 10.1016/j.celrep.2021.110003.

Brown adipose tissue (BAT) thermogenic activity is tightly regulated by cellular redox status, but the underlying molecular mechanisms are incompletely understood. Protein S-nitrosylation, the nitric-oxide-mediated cysteine thiol protein modification, plays important roles in cellular redox regulation. Here we show...

Pea protein isolate characteristics modulate functional properties of pea protein-cranberry polyphenol particles.

Food science & nutrition

Strauch RC, Lila MA.

Food Sci Nutr. 2021 May 24;9(7):3740-3751. doi: 10.1002/fsn3.2335. eCollection 2021 Jul.

Plant polyphenols have a natural binding affinity for proteins, and their interaction can be exploited to form diverse aggregate particles. Protein-polyphenol particles utilized as food ingredients allow consumers to incorporate more health-benefiting plant bioactives into their diets. The functional...
