A Bioengineered Stable Protein 1-Hemin Complex with Enhanced Peroxidase-Like Catalytic Properties. [PDF]
Peroxidase is a heme‐containing enzyme that has been broadly used in medical diagnosis, environmental treatments, and chemical syntheses. Its main limitation is low expression yields and poor stability in harsh environments. Herein, the feasibility and the use of Stable protein 1, a thermo‐stable and stress‐responsive protein, conjugated with hemin as ...

Mitochondrial ATP concentration decreases immediately after glucose administration to glucose-deprived hepatocytes. [PDF]
Hepatocytes can switch their metabolic processes in response to nutrient availability. We visualized metabolite dynamics in primary cultured hepatocytes during recovery from glucose‐deprivation. Glucose administration to hepatocytes under glucose deprivation conditions can cause an immediate decrease in the mitochondrial ATP concentration. In contrast,

Reinforcer value moderates response magnitude and persistence during extinction: A randomized trial. [PDF]
Abstract Extinction bursts, or temporary increases in rates and intensities of behavior during extinction, can preclude the inclusion of extinction in intervention packages meant to suppress severe challenging behavior. To identify underlying behavioral mechanisms responsible for response persistence and bursting, 69 adults with developmental ...

Flavonoids as Promising Akt1 Inhibitors in Cancer Medicine: Insights From Molecular Docking, Dynamics, DFT Calculations, and In Vitro Validation. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background The PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway is commonly deregulated in different types of cancers, contributing to tumor proliferation, persistence, and resistance to treatment. Akt1, a crucial kinase within this pathway, plays a critical role in tumor progression and the occurrence of therapeutic resistance.

Peroxiredoxin 1 (Prx1) and glutaredoxin 3 (Grx3) are two major antioxidant proteins that play a critical role in maintaining redox homeostasis for tumor progression. Here, we identify the prototypical pyranonaphthoquinone natural product frenolicin B (FB)

Harnessing blue light photobiomodulation for cancer therapy: Evidence from a systematic review. [PDF]
Conventional treatments for various types of cancer are often associated with tumor recurrence and aggressiveness. Photobiomodulation with blue light (BL; 450–470 nm) emerges as a promising alternative with antitumor effects. This systematic review, with 37 in vitro and in vivo studies from 2002 to 2024, revealed that BL reduces cell viability ...

Prader–Willi Syndrome and Chromosome 15q11.2 BP1-BP2 Region: A Review
Prader–Willi syndrome (PWS) is a complex genetic disorder with three PWS molecular genetic classes and presents as severe hypotonia, failure to thrive, hypogonadism/hypogenitalism and developmental delay during infancy. Hyperphagia, obesity, learning and

SGCE promotes breast cancer stemness by promoting the transcription of FGF-BP1 by Sp1
Breast cancer stem cells are mainly responsible for poor prognosis, especially in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). In a previous study, we demonstrated that ε-Sarcoglycan (SGCE), a type Ⅰ single-transmembrane protein, is a potential oncogene that ...

The dynamic mechanism of 4E-BP1 recognition and phosphorylation by mTORC1.
The activation of cap-dependent translation in eukaryotes requires multisite, hierarchical phosphorylation of 4E-BP by the 1 MDa kinase mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). To resolve the mechanism of this hierarchical phosphorylation at the

4E-BP1 counteracts human mesenchymal stem cell senescence via maintaining mitochondrial homeostasis
Although the mTOR-4E-BP1 signaling pathway is implicated in aging and aging-related disorders, the role of 4E-BP1 in regulating human stem cell homeostasis remains largely unknown.
