Possible Involvement of Altered Arginase Activity, Arginase Type I and Type II Expressions, and Nitric Oxide Production in Occurrence of Intimal Hyperplasia in Premenopausal Human Uterine Arteries

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2008
In the present experiments, we tried to elucidate whether changes in arginase activity and protein expression of arginase I and II are involved in the occurrence of intimal hyperplasia in premenopausal human uterine arteries.

Cascading reaction of arginase and urease on a graphene-based FET for ultrasensitive, real-time detection of arginine [PDF]

, 2018
Herein, a biosensor based on a reduced graphene oxide field effect transistor (rGO-FET) functionalized with the cascading enzymes arginase and urease was developed for the detection of L-arginine.

Mesenchymal Stem Cell‐Derived Apoptotic Micro‐Vesicles Repaired Sciatic Nerve Defect by Regulating Early Inflammatory Microenvironment and Promoting Angiogenesis

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
HUCMSC‐Apo‐mvs enhance peripheral nerve repair by modulating the inflammatory microenvironment (IME), primarily through coordinated actions on three functional cells. They recruit macrophages and promote their polarization from pro‐inflammatory M1 to anti‐inflammatory M2 phenotypes, increasing secretion of IL‐10 and VEGF.

Treating Macrophages with Anti-inflammatory Nanoparticles as a Strategy to Improve Muscle Repair [PDF]

, 2019
The macrophage is an immune cell that is involved in host defense. More recent research, however, has revealed that they also play a central role in mediating the skeletal muscle regenerative process.

Erythrocytes as Carriers of Therapeutic Enzymes. [PDF]

, 2020
Therapeutic enzymes are administered for the treatment of a wide variety of diseases. They exert their effects through binding with a high affinity and specificity to disease-causing substrates to catalyze their conversion to a non-noxious product, to ...

Crystallization of Arginase [PDF]

Nature, 1946
ATTEMPTS to obtain arginase in a pure state were only partly successful and resulted in an approximately twenty-fold purification of the enzyme from liver extracts1,2,3.

Discovery and Pharmacokinetics of Sulfamides and Guanidines as Potent Human Arginase 1 Inhibitors.

ACS Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2020
We designed and synthesized a series of arginase inhibitors as derivatives of the well-known 2-(S)-amino-6-boronohexanoic acid (ABH) with basic and neutral side chains in the α-position relative to the amino acid group.

Serotonergic System‐Targeted Nucleic Acid Hydrogel Coordinates Excitability Restoration and Circuit Reconstruction for Spinal Cord Injury Therapy

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The study reports a DNA/RNA heteroduplex hydrogel (SeroPTEN‐CG) that undergoes DNase‐mediated hydrogel‐to‐nanogel transition for spinal cord injury therapy by targeting the serotonergic system, combining 5‐hydroxytryptamine (5‐HT)‐mediated excitability restoration to reactivate dormant interneurons with phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN)‐targeted ...

Arginase Pathway in Acute Retina and Brain Injury: Therapeutic Opportunities and Unexplored Avenues

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
Ischemic retinopathies represent a major cause of visual impairment and blindness. They include diabetic retinopathy (DR), acute glaucoma, retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), and central (or branch) retinal artery occlusion (CRAO).

CDK4/6 Inhibition Induces CD8+ T Cell Antitumor Immunity via MIF‐Induced Functional Orchestration of Tumor‐Associated Macrophages

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
CDK4/6 inhibition promotes CD8+ T cell expansion through tumor‐macrophage crosstalk by activating HIF‐1α and enhancing MIF‐CD44/CD74 signaling. This reprograms TAMs to boost MHC‐I antigen presentation, and CDK4/6 inhibitor‐trained M1 TAM supernatant therapy synergizes with low‐dose PD‐1 blockade to restore antitumor immunity.
