Marine heatwaves repeatedly trigger summer mortality of the farmed Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas), forcing its haemocytes to reprogramme metabolism under thermal stress. The metabolic nodes governing this adaptation remain poorly defined. Integrating

Many human malignancies require extracellular arginine (Arg) for survival because the key enzyme for de novo Arg biosynthesis, argininosuccinate synthetase 1 (ASS1), is silenced. Recombinant arginine deiminase (ADI-PEG20), which digests extracellular Arg,

Amino Acid Metabolism in Health and Disease
This graphical abstract delineates the multifaceted role of amino acid metabolism in health and disease. It illustrates how amino acids sustain physiological homeostasis across the liver, kidney, brain, heart, intestine, muscle, skeleton, and immune system.

Assessing the therapeutic potential of PDE‐5 inhibitors in adults: Insights from a multi‐omics study
Abstract Phosphodiesterase‐5 inhibitors have beneficial pleiotropic effects and hold promise as adjuvant treatments for cancer, dementia, and other disorders. Sixteen men and women aged 50–60 were administered daily sildenafil/tadalafil for 1 month. We characterized molecular signatures of sildenafil/tadalafil treatment via analyses and multi‐omics ...

Supporting your practice: Compounding sodium benzoate oral liquid for urea cycle disorders
Urea cycle disorders (UCD) are rare inherited metabolic disorders with an incidence estimated to be 1: 35,000 births. UCDs are caused by the dysfunction of any of the six enzymes (namely, carbamoyl phosphate synthetase I, N-acetylglutamate synthetase ...

Targeting defects in metabolism is an underutilized strategy for the treatment of cancer. Arginine auxotrophy resulting from the silencing of argininosuccinate synthetase 1 (ASS1) is a common metabolic alteration reported in a broad range of aggressive ...

ASS1 Promotes Colorectal Cancer Immune Evasion Through CPT1A-Mediated S100A10 Succinylation
Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) progression is frequently driven by metabolic reprogramming and immune evasion. A crucial metabolic enzyme, argininosuccinate synthetase 1 (ASS1), is dysregulated in a number of malignancies; however,

Electroencephalography and transcranial Doppler ultrasonography in neonatal citrullinemia
The authors present a case of citrullinemia with a genotype of argininosuccinate synthetase (ASS1), c.380 G>A (p.R127Q)/c.380 G>A (p.R127Q), in two alleles. A 3-day-old female infant presented with status epilepticus and coma.

Decreased glutamine synthetase, increased citrulline–nitric oxide cycle activities, and oxidative stress in different regions of brain in epilepsy rat model [PDF]
To understand their role in epilepsy, the nitric oxide synthetase (NOS), argininosuccinate synthetase (AS), argininosuccinate lyase (AL), glutamine synthetase (GS), and arginase activities, along with the concentration of nitrate/nitrite (NOx ...

Comparison of two enzymes with similar substrate binding sites.
The proteins involved are Serine racemase from Schizosaccharomyces pombe (2zpu, left) and Argininosuccinate synthetase from Thermus thermophilus (1kor, right).
