In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the genes HXK2 and REG1 are believed to play a central role in carbon catabolite repression, acting on multiple pathways in the central metab. The present study aimed at quantifying the effect of deletion of genes HXK2 or REG1, ...
Impairment of pulmonary function is a major prognostic indicator in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Forced vital capacity (FVC) and maximal voluntary ventilation (MVV) decline linearly and are commonly used to assess disease progression. The aim of th ...
Background: Airway bacterial colonization by potentially pathogenic microorganisms occurs in a proportion of patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). It increases airway inflammation and influences outcomes negatively. Yet, its diagnosis ...
Perfluorocarbon (PFC) compounds induce pulmonary hyperinflation and respiratory distress in some animals following intravenous administration. This study was designed to quantify the effects of two PFC emulsions on lung volumes and compliance and to identi ...
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the 5(th) most prevalent disease worldwide leading to severe morbidity and mortality in developed countries. The disease is strongly associated with smoking, and can be characterized by progressive and irreve ...
We evaluated a multicompartment analysis of forced expiration, based on modelling the lung as a set of twenty parallel compartments emptying exponentially with time constants ranging from 0.1-10s; the forced expired volume signal was represented ba a histo ...
The understanding of dynamic metabolic regulations is important for physiol. studies and strain characterization tasks. The present study combined transient expts. with online metabolic flux anal. (MFA) in order to quantify metabolic regulations, namely ca ...
Deletion mutants with either deletion of HXK2 and REG1 of the wild-type strain Saccharomyces cerevisiae CEN.PK113-7D were quant. analyzed for the impact on carbon catabolite repression and the short-term effect of the oxidative metab. Therefore, continuous ...
