Pharmacokinetic Prediction and Cytotoxicity of New Quercetin Derivatives

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Quercetin (QUE) possesses various pharmacological properties; however, its low bioavailability and solubility hinder its beneficial effects. Enzymatic glycosylation has been explored to improve these aspects. In the present study, we used a sucrose phosphorylase variant to catalyze the regioselective transglucosylation of QUE, predicted the ...

Ethnomedicinal Uses, Phytochemistry, Pharmacological Activities, and Toxicology of the Subfamily Gomphrenoideae (Amaranthaceae): A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The subfamily Gomphrenoideae is composed of about 480 accepted species, many of which have been historically used as medicinal plants, reason why they have been studied in terms of chemical profile, biological activity, and safety. This review consolidates the advances in research on this subfamily over the past 47 years, emphasizing its ...

The hydrophobic effect characterises the thermodynamic signature of amyloid fibril growth [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Many proteins have the potential to aggregate into amyloid fibrils, which are associated with a wide range of human disorders including Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. In contrast to that of folded proteins, the thermodynamic stability of amyloid fibrils is not well understood: specifically the balance between entropic and enthalpic terms ...

Mammalian Tolerance to Amino Acid Heterochirality

open access: yesChemBioChem, Accepted Article.
Organisms use amino acids predominantly in l‐configuration. On the other hand, a series of studies show that a variety of d‐amino acids also occur in mammals and amino acid homochirality is not complete. Mammals de novo synthesize most amino acids with l‐configuration, but serine and aspartate are converted from l‐ to d‐configuration by endogenous ...

A guide to selecting high-performing antibodies for amyloid-beta precursor protein for use in Western Blot, immunoprecipitation and immunofluorescence [version 2; peer review: 2 approved, 1 approved with reservations]

open access: yesF1000Research
The amyloid-beta precursor protein is a transmembrane protein expressed in many tissues and highly concentrated in the brain. The protein is of significant interest due to its involvement in the generation of amyloidogenic β-amyloid peptides, prone to ...

Targeting Iron Responsive Elements (IREs) of APP mRNA into Novel Therapeutics to Control the Translation of Amyloid-β Precursor Protein in Alzheimer’s Disease

open access: yesPharmaceuticals
The hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the buildup of amyloid-β (Aβ), which is produced when the amyloid precursor protein (APP) misfolds and deposits as neurotoxic plaques in the brain.

Peptidomimetics Targeting the Amyloidogenicity of Nucleophosmin 1 Mutations in Acute Myeloid Leukemia

open access: yesChemBioChem, Accepted Article.
Nucleophosmin 1(NPM1) is an abundant human protein endowed with many functions whose dysregulation leads to various cancers and mutations are relevant in Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). In the wild type form, pentameric NPM1 resides mainly in the nucleolus even if it shuttles toward the cytosol exerting its chaperon function, conversely in AML‐mutated ...
