Ubiquitination in cancer: mechanisms and therapeutic opportunities
Abstract Ubiquitination, a key post‐translational modification, plays an essential role in tumor biology by regulating fundamental cellular processes, such as metabolism and cell death. Additionally, it interacts with other post‐translational modifications, which are closely linked to tumorigenesis, tumor progression, the tumor microenvironment, and ...

5‐thiohistidine N‐acetyltransferase from Proteiniphilum saccharofermentans
Ovothiol A is a 5‐thiohistidine derivative biosynthesized by a broad range of prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. Its redox‐active mercaptoimidazole side chain is believed to protect cells from oxidative stress. The three enzymes that produce ovothiol A from histidine, cysteine, and S‐adenosyl methionine have been identified and characterized.

(E)‐N’‐benzylidenepyrazine‐2‐carbohydrazides with 2‐OH, 2,3‐diOH or 2,4‐diOH substitution exhibit good antimycobacterial or antiproliferative activity, and iron chelation similar to salicylaldehyde isonicotinoyl hydrazone (SIH). A series of 33 (E)‐N’‐benzylidenepyrazine‐2‐carbohydrazides and their derivatives were synthesized and tested for biological ...

Computational modelling of myocardial metabolism in patients with advanced heart failure
LV, left ventricular; LVAD, left ventricular assist device; LVEF, left ventricular ejection fraction. Abstract Aims Perturbations of myocardial metabolism and energy depletion are well‐established hallmarks of heart failure (HF), yet methods for their systematic assessment remain limited in humans.

Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches
Abstract Inherited metabolic epilepsies (IMEs) represent the inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) in which epilepsy is a prevailing component, often determining other neurodevelopmental outcomes associated with the disorder. The different metabolic pathways affected by individual IMEs are the basis of their rarity and heterogeneity.

Abstract Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a complex noncommunicable condition characterized by central obesity, insulin resistance, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and hyperglycemia. Epidemiological evidence shows that MetS affects a third of the global population; however, due to its complex pathogenesis and limited drug therapy options, the increasing ...

A microfluorometric method for the determination of free fatty acids in plasma
A rapid and precise microfluorometric method for the determination of free fatty acid concentrations in 2-5 microliters of plasma is described. The assay is performed directly on plasma, eliminating the need for extraction with organic solvents, and is ...

The Influence of Schwann Cell Metabolism and Dysfunction on Axon Maintenance
Sensory neurons depend on Schwann cells for survival. Schwann cells provide energy for axons during rapid firing or after injury. Dysregulated metabolism in Schwann cells can lead to the production of neurotoxic lipids and axon degeneration. ABSTRACT Schwann cells are the glial cells in the peripheral nervous system responsible for the production of ...
