P-selectin mediates metastatic progression through binding to sulfatides on tumor cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Hematogenous carcinoma metastasis is associated with tumor cell emboli formation, which is now known to be facilitated by selectins. P-selectin-mediated interactions of platelets with cancer cells are based mostly on mucin- and glycosaminoglycan-type ...

The Potential of Secondary Metabolites in Medicinal Plants as Anti–Quorum Sensing in Biofilms: A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesJournal of Chemistry, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
The formation of biofilms occurs due to a group of bacteria gathering together. The increasing of cell density will stimulate chemical signals for bacteria to communicate through quorum sensing system. Quorum sensing plays a role for competition, virulence, resistance, and pathogenesis. Quorum sensing produces signaling response called as autoinducers.

Comparison of Five Peptide Vectors for Improved Brain Delivery of the Lysosomal Enzyme Arylsulfatase A

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2014
Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) is a treatment option for lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs) caused by deficiencies of soluble lysosomal enzymes. ERT depends on receptor-mediated transport of intravenously injected recombinant enzyme to lysosomes of ...

Mammalian sulfo-conjugate metabolism [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
Sulfoconjugates occur ubiquitously as sulfopolysaccharides, sulfolipids and sulfoproteins. A variety of sulfotransferases catalyze the sulfation process with 3'- phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphosulfate as the sulfate donor.

Enhancing the Steroid Sulfatase Activity of the Arylsulfatase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Steroidal sulfate esters play a central role in many physiological processes. They serve as the reservoir for endogenous sex hormones and form a significant fraction of the steroid metabolite pool.

Hair follicle sulfotransferase activity and effectiveness of oral minoxidil in androgenetic alopecia

open access: yesJournal of Cosmetic Dermatology, Volume 23, Issue 11, Page 3767-3773, November 2024.
Abstract Background Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is common. While topical minoxidil remains the only FDA‐approved therapeutic for AGA, its efficacy is limited in stimulating clinically significant hair regrowth over the longer term. Oral minoxidil, which is used off‐label, is a promising alternative; however, its effectiveness and underlying mechanisms ...

Transition-State Interactions in a Promiscuous Enzyme: Sulfate and Phosphate Monoester Hydrolysis by Pseudomonas aeruginosa Arylsulfatase. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Pseudomonas aeruginosa arylsulfatase (PAS) hydrolyzes sulfate and, promiscuously, phosphate monoesters. Enzyme-catalyzed sulfate transfer is crucial to a wide variety of biological processes, but detailed studies of the mechanistic contributions to its ...

KCNJ3 is a novel candidate gene for autosomal dominant pure hereditary spastic paraplegia identified using whole genome sequencing

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, Volume 195, Issue 7, October 2024.
Abstract Hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) is a group of familial diseases characterized by progressive corticospinal tract degeneration. Clinically, patients present with lower‐limb spasticity and weakness. To date, more than 80 genetic HSP types have been identified.

Chromogranins, widespread in endocrine and nervous tissue, bind Ca2+ [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
The proteinaceous components of the secretory vesicle contents isolated from bovine adrenal medulla bind Ca2+ (number of binding sites, 152 ± 52 nmol Ca2+ per mg protein; dissociation constant, 54 ± 8 μM (n = 5)).
