Protein Glutamylation: From Cytoskeleton to Signaling

Med Research, EarlyView.
Tubulin glutamylation, γ‐glutamylation, and nontubulin glutamylation are distinct yet interconnected post‐translational modifications that regulate diverse physiological and pathological processes, including cytoskeletal organization, cell cycle progression, immunity, metabolism, and disease development.

The Gut–Brain Axis in Parkinson's Disease: From Clinical Observation toward Mechanism‐Based Precision Medicine

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Gastrointestinal dysfunction is increasingly recognized as a core feature of Parkinson's disease (PD), affecting quality of life, nutrition, medication response, and potentially the earliest stages of pathogenesis. This perspective traces the evolution of the gut from a neglected source of non‐motor symptoms to a central component of ...

Artificial Intelligence‐Driven Natural Product Drug Discovery: From Computational Genome Mining to Clinical Translation

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Natural products (NPs) have historically yielded numerous therapeutic agents, yet their integration into modern drug discovery has been constrained by chemical complexity, low abundance, laborious dereplication, and limited target annotation.

Repurposing antimicrobial agents for neuroprotection: Mechanisms, clinical potential, and challenges

Neuroprotection, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial agents exert neuroprotective effects through modulation of interconnected pathways. Tetracyclines, macrolides, antimalarial agents, sulfones, and antiparasitic agents suppress neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis while preserving mitochondrial function and neurotransmission.

The Histidine 382 Residue Influences the Thermal Stability and Binding Propensity of the E2 Domain of Amyloid Precursor Protein

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The E2 domain of amyloid precursor protein (APP_E2) plays a central role in the protein's function. We reinvestigate how the missense mutation, ΔH382L, affects the domain's thermal stability and ligand binding propensity through differential scanning fluorometry.

Prediction of Prion Proteins in E. coli Based on Bimodal Sequence Characteristics

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Prions are infectious proteins that bear misfolded conformations capable of converting folded states into misfolded aggregates under physiologically relevant conditions. In mammals, prions cause deadly maladies including Creutzfeldt‐Jakob and chronic wasting disease. To date, several prion proteins have been identified in eukaryotes, primarily

Breaking Alzheimer's Disease Barrier: The Role of Xanthoceras sorbifolia Bunge Oil in Gut‐Brain Axis and TLR4/Myd88/MAPK Pathway Inhibition

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder associated with cognitive decline and neuroinflammation. Xanthoceras sorbifolia Bunge oil (XSBO), a woody plant oil rich in bioactive fatty acids, has shown potential health benefits.
