A Refractory Leg Skin Ulcer Associated With Multiple Myeloma Successfully Treated With Plasma Exchange, Lenalidomide, and Dexamethasone

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant plasma cell disorder that primarily presents with CRAB symptoms (calcium elevation, renal failure, anemia, and bone abnormalities). In rare cases, MM manifests with systemic complications like skin ulcers, which present management challenges. Here, we report a 78‐year‐old Japanese man with MM and refractory

Dysfunctional copper homeostasis in Caenorhabditis elegans affects genomic and neuronal stability

open access: yesRedox Biochemistry and Chemistry
While copper (Cu) is an essential trace element for biological systems due to its redox properties, excess levels may lead to adverse effects partly due to overproduction of reactive species. Thus, a tightly regulated Cu homeostasis is crucial for health.

Focal Targeting of the Bacterial Envelope by Antimicrobial Peptides

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2016
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are utilized by both eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms. AMPs such as the human beta defensins, human neutrophil peptides, human cathelicidin, and many bacterial bacteriocins are cationic and capable of binding to anionic ...

Uncovering the Complexity of Synucleinopathies: An Ongoing Tale Between Proteins and Lipids

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Neurodegenerative diseases are pathological states characterized by progressive alterations in brain homeostasis during aging. Synucleinopathies, including Parkinson's disease and dementia with Lewy bodies, are defined neuropathologically by the accumulation of inclusions known as Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites.

Cardiolipin‐dependent Carriers

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2021
The phospholipid, cardiolipin, has pleiotropic structural and functional roles that are collectively essential for mitochondrial biology. Yet, the molecular details of how this lipid supports the structure and function of proteins and protein complexes is poorly understood.

Enhancing Selective Brain Cancer Therapy: Integrating Nanomedicine and Molecular Dynamics to Target the Cancerous Lipid Composition

open access: yesNano Select, EarlyView.
Improving selectivity within therapeutic design is critical to ensure targeted delivery to brain tumors. Targeting the cellular membrane composition distinctive of the blood–brain barrier and brain cancer cells is explored in this review. Nanomedicine can be utilized for precise tumor recognition, and detailed mechanistic interactions of therapeutics ...

α-d-Glucopyranosyl-, d-alanyl- and l-lysylcardiolipin from gram-positive bacteria: analysis by fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1998
Cardiolipin species substituted on O2 of the middle glycerol moiety with α-d-glucopyranosyl, d-alanyl and l-lysyl residues were isolated from different gram-positive bacteria. There respective structures were elucidated by positive and negative mode fast
