Sarcosine degradation pathway is involved in the epigenetics of prostate cells
(Mendel University in Brno, 2017-12-31)
It has been shown that sarcosine suplementation stimulates the proliferation of prostate cells and also their invassiveness. In present study we show that enzymes conected with sarcosine conversion to glycine (sarcosine ...
Effect of the selected phenolic and flavonoid compounds of black pepper and caraway seeds on prostate cells
(Mendel University in Brno, 2017-12-31)
In this study, the effect of selected phenolic and flavonoid compounds of black pepper and caraway seeds on prostate cells (PNT1A, 22RV1 and PC3) was observed. Synthetic standards of 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde and naringenin ...
Nanoparticles Suitable for BCAA Isolation Can Serve for Use in Magnetic Lipoplex-Based Delivery System for L, I, V, or R-rich Antimicrobial Peptides
(MDPI, 2016-04-01)
This paper investigates the synthesis of paramagnetic nanoparticles, which are able to bind branched chain amino acids (BCAAs)—leucine, valine, and isoleucine and, thus, serve as a tool for their isolation. Further, by ...
Influence of Long-Distance Bicycle Riding on Serum/Urinary Biomarkers of Prostate Cancer
(MDPI, 2016-03-17)
Herein, we present a study focused on the determination of the influence of long-distance
(53 km) bicycle riding on levels of chosen biochemical urinary and serum prostate cancer (PCa)
biomarkers total prostate-specific ...
The Isolation of DNA by Polycharged Magnetic Particles: An Analysis of the Interaction by Zeta Potential and Particle Size
(MDPI, 2016-04-20)
Magnetic isolation of biological targets is in major demand in the biotechnology industry today. This study considers the interaction of four surface-modified magnetic micro- and nanoparticles with selected DNA fragments. ...
Differences in Urinary Amino Acid Patterns in Individuals with Different Types of Urological Tumor Urinary Amino Acid Patterns as Markers of Urological Tumors
(The International Institute of Anticancer Research, 2018-04-01)
Background: Insufficient specificity and invasiveness of currently used diagnostic methods raises the need for new markers of urological tumors. The aim of this study was to find a link between the urinary excretion of ...
The effect of coffee supplementation on glutathione and total thiols levels
(Mendel University in Brno, 2017-12-31)
The effect of coffee supplementation on glutathione and total thiols levels
Antioxidants are very important substances that counteract the formation of free radicals. They are divided into exogenous, such as vitamin C which ...

The aim of the experiment was to determine the content of capsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin
in twelve varieties of chilli peppers (Brown Bhutlah II, Bhut Jolokia Yellow I, Pieto de Moca II,
Trinidad 7 POT II, 7 POT White II, ...
Determination of Histamine in Silages Using Nanomaghemite Core (-Fe2O3)-Titanium Dioxide Shell Nanoparticles Off-Line Coupled with Ion Exchange Chromatography
(MDPI, 2016-09-12)
The presence of biogenic amines is a hallmark of degraded food and its products.
Herein, we focused on the utilization of magnetic nanoparticles off-line coupled with ion exchange
chromatography with post-column ninhydrin ...
Comparison of biogenic amines and mycotoxins in alfalfa and red clover fodder depending on additives
(MDPI, 2017-04-30)
In the production of fermented feed, each crop can be contaminated with a variety of microorganisms that may produce natural pollutants. Biogenic amines, mycotoxins, and undesirable organic acids can decrease health feed ...
