Mass Spectrometry Structural Proteomics Enabled by Limited Proteolysis and Cross‐Linking

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The exploration of protein structure and function stands at the forefront of life science and represents an ever‐expanding focus in the development of proteomics. As mass spectrometry (MS) offers readout of protein conformational changes at both the protein and peptide levels, MS‐based structural proteomics is making significant strides in the

Reduction in Synaptic Vesicle Protein Abundance but Increased Amounts of Nsg2 and Lpcat1 in Cerebral Cortices Without the Endosomal SNARE Proteins Vti1a and Vti1b

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Absence of the endosomal SNAREs vti1a and vti1b results in perinatal death and severe neuronal phenotypes in mice, while lack of one of these proteins results in minor phenotypes. Proteomic differences were investigated to obtain a deeper insight into processes in which vti1a and vti1b are involved.

Novel Therapeutics for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: From Empirical Bronchodilation to Precision Medicine

open access: yesRespirology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) remains the third leading cause of death worldwide, and conventional bronchodilator‐based therapies have limited efficacy in preventing exacerbations and disease progression. The 2024–2026 period represents a historic inflection point: three mechanistically distinct agents received Food and Drug ...

The delay effect of sulfur mustard gas on phenotype and plasma alpha-1-antitrypsin activity in war victim patients

open access: yesمجله دانشگاه علوم پزشکی گرگان, 2010
Background and Objective: Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency is recognized as a etiological base in lung injury. Therefore this study was performed to determine plasma level of alpha-1 antitrypsin in war victims exposed to sulfur mustard gas.

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

open access: yesAnnals 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.

The Alpha‐1 Pi*MZ Genotype Is an Independent Risk Factor for Hepatocellular Carcinoma Development in Patients With ACLD

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Alpha‐1 antitrypsin deficiency is a genetic disease that affects the lungs and the liver. The role of the heterozygous genetic defect in the development of liver cancer in patients with cirrhosis is unclear. Our study found that carrying the Pi*MZ genotype increases the risk of developing liver cancer.

Assessing Major Adverse Liver Outcomes With Baclofen Compared to Acamprosate in Compensated Alcohol‐Associated Cirrhosis

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
We conducted a nationwide, multicenter cohort study using a target trial emulation framework to compare baclofen and acamprosate in patients with compensated alcohol‐associated cirrhosis. After matching, baclofen initiation was associated with a higher 1‐year risk of major adverse liver outcomes, driven primarily by hepatic encephalopathy, particularly

Meta‐Analysis: Prevalence and Incidence of Gastroparesis Following Lung or Heart Transplantation

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Gastroparesis occurs in nearly one‐third of lung and heart‐lung transplant recipients (pooled prevalence 31.9%; incidence 25.7%), driven by surgical complexity, perioperative opioid exposure, and diagnostic criteria. Standardized gastric emptying assessment and multidisciplinary management, including opioid minimization, immunosuppressant optimization,
