Biological H2S / COS Donation by Thiocarbamates

University of Oregon researchers are studying reactive sulfur species (RSS). Detection, Delivery, and Quantification of Biological H2S Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), commonly known for its unpleasant rotten-egg smell, is now accepted as an important enzymatically-produced biomolecule that plays important roles in living systems. Joining CO and NO in...

SpdE, a novel amino acid-sensing diguanylate cyclase

SpdE, a novel amino acid-sensing diguanylate cyclase Tech ID UO-19-33 Animals are colonized by dynamic communities of bacteria, largely acquired by transmission from the external environment and other hosts; however, the traits that promote a microbe’s ability to be host-associated (i.e. to colonize or otherwise exist within a host) are not...

Essential amino acid supplementation & geriatric surgery

Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is used to treat knee pain caused by osteoarthritis. In 2008 over 650,000 TKAs were performed in the US alone. The prevalence of TKA is projected to increase to 3.5 million U.S. patients annually at the current growth rates. Despite success as a treatment for osteoarthritis, TKA leaves patients with persistent muscle...
