Pseudokinase NRP1 facilitates endocytosis of transferrin in the African trypanosome

Scientific Reports, 2022
Trypanosoma brucei causes human African trypanosomiasis (HAT) and nagana in cattle. During infection of a vertebrate, endocytosis of host transferrin (Tf) is important for viability of the parasite.

Cytotoxicity and Antimicrobial Activity of GaMF1 Analogs

ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 4, 25 February 2026.
GaMF1 is a reported, highly potent inhibitor of mycobacterial ATP synthase. Structural modification of this scaffold significantly changes biological activity. We present GaMF1 analogues with strong antiparasitic effects, potential antiproliferative properties, and discuss the selectivity limitations of the parent compound and its analogues.

Integration Analysis of Metabolome and Transcriptome Reveals the Effect of Lipopolysaccharide on Ovary Response to Stimulation

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2025.
This study provided evidence of inflammation on damaging ovary response to controlled ovarian stimulation, linked to dysfunctions in lipid, carbohydrate, and amino acid metabolism. IL‐17 signal pathways may play a critical role in this process. ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to elucidate the underlying mechanisms by which lipopolysaccharide (LPS ...
