The SBT6.1 subtilase processes the GOLVEN1 peptide controlling cell elongation [PDF]
Maturation of GLV signaling peptides requires two SBT6 subtilases. SBT6 proteolytic activity is further regulated by the Serpin1 inhibitor, implying a complex network that controls cell elongation in Arabidopsis.The GOLVEN (GLV) gene family encode small ...

Debittering and Masking Soy Peptides for Oral Consumption and Immune‐Boosting Function
Soy peptides (SPs) have been extensively studied with an emphasis on their immune‐boosting effects and production‐associated bitterness. This associated bitterness affects SPs’ oral consumption despite their bioactivities. In this review, the immune‐boosting functions, factors affecting bitterness, and consumers’ perceptions of SPs are explored ...

Amyloid Beta in Alzheimer's Disease: Mechanisms, Biomarker Potential, and Therapeutic Targets
The limited clinical efficacy of anti‐Aβ antibodies has challenged the Aβ hypothesis, compelling the integration of key mechanisms—including neuroinflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and post‐translational modifications of Aβ—into a revised model of Alzheimer's disease.

Matrix and cell‐associated proteoglycans are important tissue‐stabilizing, weight‐bearing, and tension‐resisting proteins in the intervertebral disc. Their glycosaminoglycan components have growth factor binding and cell‐instructive properties that allow cells to regulate tissue composition and function.

Characterization of Cytokine Treatment on Human Pancreatic Islets by Top‐Down Proteomics
ABSTRACT Type 1 diabetes (T1D) results from autoimmune‐mediated destruction of insulin‐producing β cells in the pancreatic islet. This process is modulated by pro‐inflammatory cytokine signaling, which has been previously shown to alter protein expression in ex vivo islets.
