Occurrence and characterization of extended-spectrum cephalosporin-resistant Enterobacteriaceae in healthy household dogs in Greece
(2018)Extended-spectrum cephalosporin-and/or carbapenem-resistant (ESCR and/or CarbR) Enterobacteriaceae constitute a public health hazard because of limited treatment options and are endemic among humans in Greece. Recently, ... -
Poly(A)-specific ribonuclease and Nocturnin in squamous cell lung cancer: Prognostic value and impact on gene expression
(2015)Background: Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer mortality worldwide, mainly due to late diagnosis, poor prognosis and tumor heterogeneity. Thus, the need for biomarkers that will aid classification, treatment and ... -
Predominance of international clone 2 OXA-23-producing-Acinetobacter baumannii clinical isolates in Greece, 2015: results of a nationwide study
(2017)In a previous nationwide study in Greece, OXA-58 was the sole carbapenemase present among carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) isolated between 2000 and 2009. In this study, the antibiotic resistances, ... -
Probing the β-pocket of the active site of human liver glycogen phosphorylase with 3-(C-β-D-glucopyranosyl)-5-(4-substituted-phenyl)-1, 2, 4-triazole inhibitors
(2018)Human liver glycogen phosphorylase (hlGP), a key enzyme in glycogen metabolism, is a valid pharmaceutical target for the development of new anti-hyperglycaemic agents for type 2 diabetes. Inhibitor discovery studies have ... -
Pus1p-dependent tRNA Pseudouridinylation Becomes Essential When tRNA Biogenesis Is Compromised in Yeast
(2001)Yeast Pus1p catalyzes the formation of pseudouridine (ψ) at specific sites of several tRNAs, but its function is not essential for cell viability. We show here that Pus1p becomes essential when another tRNA: pseudouridine ... -
Repeatability of pleural adenosine deaminase measurements in diagnostic evaluation of pleural effusions
(2018)Background: A follow-up thoracentesis is proposed in suspected atypical tuberculosis cases. The study aimed to define the variability of pleural ADA values across repeated thoracenteses in different types of pleural effusions ... -
The role of histone deacetylase inhibitors in uveal melanoma: Current evidence
(2018)Uveal melanoma is the most common intraocular malignancy in adults, representing approximately 3% of all melanoma cases. Despite progress in chemotherapy, radiation and surgical treatment options, the prognosis and survival ... -
A serine carboxypeptidase-like acyltransferase is required for synthesis of antimicrobial compounds and disease resistance in oats
(2009)Serine carboxypeptidase-like (SCPL) proteins have recently emerged as a new group of plant acyltransferases. These enzymes share homology with peptidases but lack protease activity and instead are able to acylate natural ... -
Short communication: Bovine mastitis caused by a multidrug-resistant, mcr-1-positive (colistin-resistant), extended-spectrum β-lactamase–producing Escherichia coli clone on a Greek dairy farm
(2020)We performed a survey aimed at analyzing milk samples collected from cows with mastitis for the presence of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)–producing Escherichia coli. Single-quarter mastitic milk samples obtained ... -
SIAE Rare Variants in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis and Primary Antibody Deficiencies
(2017)Sialic acid acetylesterase (SIAE) deficiency was suggested to lower the levels of ligands for sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like receptors, decreasing the threshold for B-cell activation. In humans, studies of rare ... -
Six months exposure to a real life mixture of 13 chemicals' below individual NOAELs induced non monotonic sex-dependent biochemical and redox status changes in rats
(2018)This study assessed the potential adverse health effects of long-term low-dose exposure to chemical mixtures simulating complex real-life human exposures. Four groups of Sprague Dawley rats were administered mixtures ... -
Synthetic, enzyme kinetic, and protein crystallographic studies of C-β-D-glucopyranosyl pyrroles and imidazoles reveal and explain low nanomolar inhibition of human liver glycogen phosphorylase
(2016)C-β-D-Glucopyranosyl pyrrole derivatives were prepared in the reactions of pyrrole, 2-, and 3-aryl-pyrroles with O-peracetylated β-D-glucopyranosyl trichloroacetimidate, while 2-(β-D-glucopyranosyl) indole was obtained by ... -
van der Waals interactions govern C-β-D-glucopyranosyl triazoles’ nM inhibitory potency in human liver glycogen phosphorylase
(2017)3-(C-Glucopyranosyl)-5aryl-1,2,4-triazoles with an aryl moiety larger than phenyl have been shown to have strong inhibitory potency (Ki values in the range of upper nM) for human liver glycogen phosphorylase (hlGP), a ...
