A rare case of alpha 1-antitrypsin deficiency associated with hypogammaglobulinemia and recurrent pulmonary thrombosis

Annals of Thoracic Medicine, 2014
Alpha 1-antitrypsin (AAT) belongs to the family of serpins (serine protease inhibitors). Loop sheet polymerization is the pathology behind serpinopathies which encompasses AAT, anti-thrombin III and neuroserpin deficiency.

EvoMut: A computational framework for engineering oxidative stability in proteins

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Amino acid oxidation is a major cause of protein instability and loss of function in therapeutic and industrial settings. Although methionine, cysteine, tryptophan, tyrosine, histidine, lysine, and arginine residues are widely recognized as oxidation‐prone, only a subset of such residues is dominant functional hotspots, and not all are ...

Drug‐Induced Liver Injury During Treatment With Tocilizumab: A Case Report of an Atypical Pattern Lesion

Pharmacology Research &Perspectives, Volume 14, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Tocilizumab is an interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) receptor antagonist indicated for various rheumatologic conditions. While hepatotoxicity is a recognized adverse effect, it predominantly manifests as hepatocellular injury. We report a rare case of drug‐induced liver injury (DILI) presenting with a cholestatic pattern and cholangitis features in a 75 ...

Dapagliflozin Attenuates NKCC2 Protein Expression and Alleviates Diabetic Kidney Disease in Salt Loaded‐Hypertensive Diabetic Db/Db Mice

FASEB BioAdvances, Volume 8, Issue 10, October 2026.
In salt‐loaded, hypertensive diabetic db/db mice with diabetic kidney disease, dapagliflozin lowered blood pressure and reduced tubular and glomerular injury. Mechanistically, dapagliflozin increased cullin E3 ligase abundance, promoting degradation of NKCC2.

β‐Catenin‐Deficient Intervertebral Disc Cells Reduce Chemotactic Transcription and Myeloid Cell Recruitment to Injured Discs of Mice

Aging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 10, October 2026.
(Left) In young discs, Wnt signaling‐replete nucleus pulposus cells secrete ECM components and, upon disc injury, cytokines to recruit myeloid cells. (Right) Whereas, β‐catenin‐deficient disc cells, modeling age‐related absence of Wnt signaling, exhibit reduced anabolic activity and, upon disc injury, secrete fewer pro‐inflammatory cytokines and ...
