INHIBITION OF P-GLYCOPROTEIN BY HIV PROTEASE INHIBITORS INCREASES INTRACELLULAR ACCUMULATION OF BERBERINE IN MURINE AND HUMAN MACROPHAGES.

Inhibition of P-glycoprotein by HIV protease inhibitors increases intracellular accumulation of berberine in murine and human macrophages.

BackgroundHIV protease inhibitor (PI)-induced inflammatory response in macrophages is 1188 a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases.We have previously reported that berberine (BBR), a traditional herbal medicine, prevents HIV PI-induced inflammatory response through inhibiting endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in macrophages.We also found th

Real-Time Weld Quality Prediction Using a Laser Vision Sensor in a Lap Fillet Joint during Gas Metal Arc Welding

Nondestructive test (NDT) technology is required in the gas metal arc (GMA) welding process to secure weld robustness and to monitor the welding quality in real-time.In this study, a laser vision sensor (LVS) is designed and fabricated, and an image processing algorithm is developed and implemented to extract precise laser lines on tested welds.A 1

Genome-Wide Scan for Runs of Homozygosity Identifies Candidate Genes Related to Economically Important Traits in Chinese Merino

In this study, we estimated the number, length, and frequency of runs of homozygosity (ROH) in 635 Chinese Merino and identified genomic regions with high ROH frequency using the OvineSNP50 whole-genome genotyping array.A total of 6039 ROH exceeding 1 Mb were detected in 634 animals.The average number of ROH in UITRA PROBIOTIC PLUS each animal was
