Regulation of immune responses by the neonatal Fc receptor and its therapeutic implications

Frontiers in Immunology, 2015
As a single receptor, the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) is critically involved in regulating albumin and IgG serum concentrations by protecting these two ligands from degradation.

Identification of (20R)‐protopanaxadiol from Panax ginseng as a novel anti‐SARS‐CoV‐2 compound

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We established a noninfectious BAC‐based SARS‐CoV‐2 replicon that enables antiviral screening under BSL‐2 conditions. Using this platform, we screened 373 food‐derived compounds and identified (20R)‐protopanaxadiol from Panax ginseng as a novel inhibitor of SARS‐CoV‐2 RNA replication, highlighting the value of safe replicon systems for antiviral ...

Adenosine triphosphate as a modulator of protein interactions and stability

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
ATP is best known as the cell's energy currency, but it also shapes how proteins fold, interact, aggregate and form biomolecular condensates. This review explains the emerging physical principles behind these effects, including weak binding to charged protein regions, magnesium‐dependent behaviour and concentration‐dependent control of protein ...

Albumin conjugated with WQPDTAHHWATL and GRFLTGGTGRLLRIS peptide improves targeted docetaxel delivery for prostate cancer: an in-silico approach

Research in Pharmaceutical Sciences
Background and purpose: Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers in the world. Anti-prostate cancer drugs such as docetaxel, doxorubicin, and cabazitaxel have drawbacks resulting from their low solubility, non-targeted transfer, and many side ...

Purification and preparation of Marchantia polymorpha Auxin Response Factor 2 for phase separation studies

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We describe detailed protocols for the purification and preparation of Marchantia polymorpha Auxin Response Factor 2 (MpARF2). This protein is fused to an MBP solubility tag and an mNG fluorescent tag and is purified from Escherichia coli. The presented procedures make it possible to study MpARF2 assemblies, which could arise from phase separation ...

Association of Troponin, C-Reactive protein, Albumin and C-Reactive protein/Albumin Ratios with Mortality in Intensive Care Unit Patients with Community-acquired Pneumonia

Acta Medica Alanya
Aim: Parameters used to determine prognosis in community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) patients often have limited clinical value. This study aims to examine the efficacy of CRP, albumin, CRP/albumin ratio and troponin elevation in predicting 30-day mortality

Protocol for quantifying miRNA trafficking across the endosomal membrane

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
An in vitro protocol measures miRNA uptake into endosomes isolated from mammalian cell extracts, which are free of subcellular contaminants. Performed at 37 °C in the presence of ATP, it ensures the import of single‐stranded miRNA into the endosomal lumen.

The Influence of Diabetes Mellitus and Kidney Dysfunction on Oxidative Stress, a Reflection of the Multisystem Interactions in Aortic Stenosis

Antioxidants
Progression of aortic stenosis (AS) is aggravated by type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) and kidney dysfunction (KD). Oxidative stress is one of the main mechanisms that triggers AS and is also disturbed among subjects with T2DM and KD.

Risk Prediction Models for Recurrence After Curative Treatment of Early‐Stage or Locally Advanced Lung Cancer: A Systematic Review

Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.
This systematic review synthesizes prognostic models for survival and recurrence in resected non‐small cell lung cancer. While many models demonstrate moderate to good discrimination, few are externally validated and reporting quality is variable, limiting clinical applicability and highlighting the need for robust, transparent model development ...
