Disease relevance of TDH

  • The TDH result was 41.6 +/- 31.7% (SD) in a group of chronic pancreatitis patients (n = 22) and 91.5 +/- 4.8% in the control group (n = 47) [1].
  • The results indicate that in normal subjects, but not in prolactinomas, NOM induces a moderate but significant reduction in TDH secretion [2].
  • Characterisation of a haemolysin related to Vp-TDH produced by a Kanagawa phenomenon-negative clinical isolate of Vibrio parahaemolyticus [3].
  • The Trace-Deletion Hypothesis (henceforth TDH; Grodzinsky 1986, 1995) states that syntactic traces are deleted in agrammatism and that whenever a trace is deleted, a default strategy is activated [4].
  • In this study, NoSo and NoS tau thresholds were measured in normal-hearing subjects and in subjects having hearing loss due to otosclerosis, using both standard TDH earphones encased in NAF-48490-1 circumaural cushions and deeply seated Etymotic 3A insert earphones [5].
 

High impact information on TDH

 

Biological context of TDH

  • RESULTS: The human TDH gene is located at 8p23-22 and has 8 exons spanning 10 kb that would have been expected to encode a 369 residue ORF [8].
  • The production level is optimal when the recombinant plasmid carries the TDH promoter, the complete 2mu and the leu2D selection marker [9].
  • Two ORFs were identified in the 5'-region of the TDH gene, a third one, coding for 176 amino acids overlaps the ACT gene in antisense direction completely [7].
  • 4-Dihydromethyltrisporate dehydrogenase (TDH) converts the (+) mating type sex pheromone 4-dihydromethyltrisporate into methyltrisporate [10].
  • In contrast to gene expression, TDH enzyme activity depends on the sexual status of the mycelium [10].
 

Anatomical context of TDH

  • The action of HlyA has been analyzed using protocols previously applied to TDH: lysis and flux experiments on human erythrocytes showed that HlyA similarly causes lysis after cell swelling (by colloid osmosis) due to an elevation of cation permeability [11].
  • Major difficulties in defining completely the exact effector mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of HP include the absence of a reliable in vitro correlate of antigen-specific effector T cells (the so called TDH cell) and the overwhelming versatility of the macrophage [12].
 

Associations of TDH with chemical compounds

 

Other interactions of TDH

  • Immunological similarities of Vp-TRH not only to Vp-TDH but also to hemolytic toxins produced by Vibrio hollisae and Vibrio cholerae non-O1, both of which are also enteropathogens closely related to V. parahaemolyticus, were demonstrated [15].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of TDH

  • Expression of the TDH encoding TSP1 gene was analyzed qualitatively using reverse-transcribed PCR [10].
  • The attenuation provided by TDH earphones in MX-41/AR and P/N 51 cushions, Audiocup earphone enclosures and ER-3A insert earphones with ER3-14 foam earplugs was determined for 30 normally hearing subjects using a real-ear attenuation at threshold paradigm [16].
  • Vp-TDH/II was purified by ammonium sulphate precipitation and successive filtrations on DEAE-cellulose, hydroxyapatite, Sepharose 4B and Mono Q columns [3].
