Molecular Vibration-Activity Relationship in the Agonism of Adenosine Receptors [PDF]

open access: yesGenomics & Informatics, 2013
The molecular vibration-activity relationship in the receptor-ligand interaction of adenosine receptors was investigated by structure similarity, molecular vibration, and hierarchical clustering in a dataset of 46 ligands of adenosine receptors.

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Adenosine negatively regulates duodenal motility in mice: role of A1 and A2a receptors . [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Adenosine is considered to be an important modulator of intestinal motility. This study was undertaken to investigate the role of adenosine in the modulation of contractility in the mouse duodenum and to characterize the adenosine

Emerging adenosine receptor agonists [PDF]

open access: yesExpert Opinion on Emerging Drugs, 2007
Adenosine receptors (ARs) are a four-member subfamily of G protein-coupled receptors and are major targets of caffeine and theophylline. There are four subtypes of ARs, designated as A1, A2A, A2B and A3. Selective agonists are now available for all four subtypes. Over a dozen of these selective agonists are now in clinical trials for various conditions,

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Discovery of benzothiazolylquinoline conjugates as novel human A3 receptor antagonists: biological evaluations and molecular docking studies [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2018
Adenosine is known as an endogenous purine nucleoside and it modulates a wide variety of physiological responses by interacting with adenosine receptors. Among the four adenosine receptor subtypes, the A3 receptor is of major interest in this study as it

Adenosine and P1 receptors: Key targets in the regulation of sleep, torpor, and hibernation

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Sleep, torpor, and hibernation are three distinct hypometabolic states. However, they have some similar physiological features, such as decreased core body temperature and slowing heart rate.
