4‐nitrobenzoate inhibits 4‐hydroxybenzoate polyprenyltransferase in malaria parasites and enhances atovaquone efficacy

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Atovaquone is an antimalarial requiring potentiation for sufficient efficacy. We pursued strategies to enhance its activity, showing that 4‐nitrobenzoate inhibits 4‐hydroxybenzoate polyprenyltransferase, decreasing ubiquinone biosynthesis. Since atovaquone competes with ubiquinol in mitochondria, 4‐nitrobenzoate facilitates its action, potentiating ...

Obscurin and KCTD6 regulate cullin-dependent small ankyrin-1 (sAnk1.5) protein turnover. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Protein turnover through cullin-3 is tightly regulated by posttranslational modifications, the COP9 signalosome, and BTB/POZ-domain proteins that link cullin-3 to specific substrates for ubiquitylation.

The importance of plasma protein for blood volume and blood pressure homeostasis

open access: yesKidney International, 1986
To evaluate the influence of plasma protein concentration and colloid osmotic pressure (COP) on blood volume and blood pressure, we studied 40 patients with the nephrotic syndrome (plasma protein 41.1 +/- 5.3 g/liter, COP 10.9 +/- 2.2 mm Hg) and 43 patients with chronic renal failure (plasma protein 65.0 +/- 5.8 g/liter, COP 22.4 +/- 3.0 mm Hg) at ...

Blood protein adsorption onto chitosan [PDF]

open access: yesBiomaterials, 2002
Chitosan was recently indicated to enhance osteogenesis, improve wound healing but to activate the coagulation and the complement systems. In the present study approximately 10 nm thick chitosan film were prepared on aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) coated silicon.

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Water and the Biology of Prions and Plaques [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
This is an attempt to account for the insolubility and/or aggregation of prions and plaques in terms of a model of water consisting of an equilibrium between high density and low density microdomains.

Merozoite surface proteins in red blood cell invasion, immunity and vaccines against malaria

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2016
Malaria accounts for an enormous burden of disease globally, with Plasmodium falciparum accounting for the majority of malaria, and P. vivax being a second important cause, especially in Asia, the Americas and the Pacific.

The role of fibroblast growth factors in cell and cancer metabolism

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling regulates crucial signaling cascades that promote cell proliferation, survival, and metabolism. Therefore, FGFs and their receptors are often dysregulated in human diseases, including cancer, to sustain proliferation and rewire metabolism.
