Mechanism of Cd-Induced Inhibition of Na-Glucose Cotransporter in Rabbit Proximal Tubule Cells: Roles of Luminal pH and Membrane-Bound Carbonic Anhydrase [PDF]
, 2008 Background/Aims: We have previously reported that a complex of cadmium-metallothionein (Cd-MT) directly affects the apical Na-glucose cotransporter on the luminal side in proximal tubules, suggesting that Cd-MT is more toxic than CdCl2 in causing ...

Therapeutic Applications of Stimuli‐Based Release and Engineering of Extracellular Vesicles
Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.This review summarizes the effects of endogenous and exogenous stimuli, their effects on the natural release of extracellular vesicles, as well as their uptake and release. It also gives an overview of stimuli‐responsive EVs and their therapeutic applications. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), nano‐ to microsized lipid bilayer membrane‐bound particles, are

Carbonic anhydrase activity of integral-functional complexes of thylakoid membranes of spinach chloroplasts [PDF]
The Ukrainian Biochemical Journal, 2015 Isolated thylakoid membranes were disrupted by treatment with nonionic detergents digitonin or dodecyl maltoside. Solubilized polypeptide complexes were separated by native gel charge shift electrophoresis.

Effects of low seawater pH on the marine polychaete Platynereis dumerilii [PDF]
, 2015 An important priority for any organism is to maintain internal cellular homeostasis including acidbase balance. Yet, the molecular level impacts of changing environmental conditions, such as low pH, remain uncharacterised.

Mechanistic Explanation of the Weak Carbonic Anhydrase’s Esterase Activity
Molecules, 2017 In order to elucidate the elementary mechanism of the promiscuous esterase activity of human carbonic anhydrase (h-CA), we present an accurate theoretical investigation on the hydrolysis of fully-acetylated d-glucose functionalized as sulfamate.
