Abstract Objectives Acute cerebral ischemia is characterized by several pathological processes evolving during time, which contribute to the final tissue damage. Secondary processes, such as prolonged inflammatory response, impaired mitochondrial function and oxidative stress, are responsible for the progression of brain injury to the peri‐infarct area,

Subnanometre enzyme mechanics probed by single-molecule force spectroscopy
Adenylate kinase catalyses the interconversion of adenosine phosphates, and plays a crucial role in maintaining cellular energy homeostasis. Here, the authors use single molecule optical tweezers to understand how the enzyme’s conformation dynamics ...

Identification and Expression Analysis of Adenylate Kinase Gene Family in Potato
Adenylate kinase (ADK) is a key enzyme that is widely distributed in animals and plants. It plays an important role in growth and stress response. However, ADK genes in potato (StADK) have been little reported. It is of great significance to identify ADK

The T2238C human atrial natriuretic peptide molecular variant and the risk of cardiovascular diseases [PDF]
Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is a cardiac hormone which plays important functions to maintain cardio-renal homeostasis. The peptide structure is highly conserved among species. However, a few gene variants are known to fall within the human ANP gene.

Molecular bases of circadian magnesium rhythms across eukaryotes
Circadian rhythms in intracellular [Mg2+] exist across eukaryotic kingdoms. Central roles for Mg2+ in metabolism suggest that Mg2+ rhythms could regulate daily cellular energy and metabolism. In this Perspective paper, we propose that ancestral prokaryotic transport proteins could be responsible for mediating Mg2+ rhythms and posit a feedback model ...

We have previously demonstrated that activation of serotonin 5-HT7 receptors (5-HT7R) reverses metabotropic glutamate receptor-mediated long term depression (mGluR-LTD) in the hippocampus of wild-type (WT) and Fmr1 Knockout (KO) mice, a model of Fragile ...

High and stable ATP levels prevent aberrant intracellular protein aggregation in yeast
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) at millimolar levels has recently been implicated in the solubilization of cellular proteins. However, the significance of this high ATP level under physiological conditions and the mechanisms that maintain ATP remain unclear.
