Identification of metabolites from peroxisomal beta-oxidation of prostaglandins.
We have recently shown that isolated rat liver peroxisomes can chain-shorten prostaglandin F2 alpha and prostaglandin E2 to tetranor-metabolites. In the present report dinor-metabolites of these two prostaglandins were also identified, suggesting that ...

Rethinking plastic waste: innovations in enzymatic breakdown of oil‐based polyesters and bioplastics
Plastic pollution remains a critical environmental challenge, and current mechanical and chemical recycling methods are insufficient to achieve a fully circular economy. This review highlights recent breakthroughs in the enzymatic depolymerization of both oil‐derived polyesters and bioplastics, including high‐throughput protein engineering, de novo ...

Mitochondrial metabolism of 12- and 15-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids.
We have previously demonstrated that peroxisomal-deficient human skin fibroblasts and mutant Chinese hamster ovary cells do not convert 12- and 15-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids (HETEs) to chain-shortened, polar metabolites, suggesting that peroxisomes ...

HSP70 governs permeability and mechanotransduction in primary human endothelial cells
HSP70 chemical inhibition reduces endothelial cell proliferation and increases permeability, the latter supported by normal interendothelial junctional protein distribution. HSP70 also plays a role in shear stress response, a hemodynamic force naturally present in blood vessels and correlated with vessel protection.

Overview of molecular signatures of senescence and associated resources: pros and cons
Cells can enter a stress response state termed cellular senescence that is involved in various diseases and aging. Detecting these cells is challenging due to the lack of universal biomarkers. This review presents the current state of senescence identification, from biomarkers to molecular signatures, compares tools and approaches, and highlights ...

Skin biopsies taken from a patient with an ultra‐rare disorder as well as controls were cultured for up to 473 days. The chunks of skin were serially transferred to a new culture plate when confluent with fibroblasts. Different generations of fibroblasts were analyzed for cell and molecular properties, proliferation, and competence for reprogramming to

[Mitochondrial beta-oxidation defects].
Mitochondrial beta-oxidation of fatty acids is an important source of energy for the cells, especially during fasting. Since 1973 several inherited defects in beta-oxidation have been described. Defects in mitochondrial beta-oxidation are one of the largest groups of inborn errors of metabolism.This review article is based on the experience of the ...

The relationship between anabolic and catabolic processes governing lung cancer cell growth is nuanced. We show that ATG4B, an autophagy regulator, is elevated in lung cancer and that high ATG4B is associated with worse patient outcomes. Targeting ATG4B in cells reduces growth, protein synthesis, and mTORC1 activity, demonstrating a new relationship ...
