A pro‐inflammatory cytokine signature characterises thrombotic antiphospholipid syndrome despite stable anticoagulation

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Primary antiphospholipid syndrome comprises distinct inflammatory subgroups defined by cytokine profiling. A shared pro‐inflammatory signature is present across all patients, whereas arterial thrombosis demonstrates enhanced inflammatory activation compared with venous thrombosis, suggesting divergent pathogenic mechanisms and opportunities for ...

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

Journal 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

A comprehensive review of cancer‐induced cardiac wasting

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cancer is frequently accompanied by cachexia, a systemic syndrome characterized by progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass, with or without loss of fat mass. Increasing evidence indicates that cancer can also induce cardiac muscle wasting, which is associated with structural cardiac remodelling, impaired contractile function and the development of ...

Metabolic remodelling in anthracycline cardiotoxicity: mechanisms and therapeutic insights

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cardiac metabolic remodelling in anthracycline‐induced cardiomyopathy and metabolically oriented cardioprotective strategies. Schematic representation of substrate utilization, mitochondrial bioenergetic function and metabolic flexibility in the healthy heart, in anthracycline‐induced cardiomyopathy and under potential cardioprotective interventions ...

TRIM59 Drives Bladder Cancer Progression Through E3 Ligase‐Dependent K48‐Linked Degradation of PTRF

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
Schematic model of TRIM59‐driven BLCA progression through K48‐linked ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of PTRF, leading to AKT activation and c‐Myc upregulation. ABSTRACT Tripartite motif‐containing 59 (TRIM59) is an E3 ubiquitin ligase implicated in multiple malignancies, but its role in bladder cancer (BLCA) remains incompletely understood ...

Insulin-induced lipid body accumulation is accompanied by lipid remodelling in model mast cells

Adipocyte, 2019
Mast cell lipid bodies are key to initiation, maintenance and resolution of inflammatory responses in tissue. Mast cell lines, primary bone marrow-derived mast cells and peripheral blood basophils present a ‘steatotic’ phenotype in response to chronic ...

Aptamer‐mediated outer membrane destabilization overcomes low permeability resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
DNA aptamers, Apt 60 and Apt 173, target the BamA protein to compromise outer membrane integrity in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, making it susceptible to Azithromycin, an antibiotic that is otherwise poorly effective due to the low‐permeability membrane.

Carvacrol alters the membrane phospholipids in erythromycin-resistant Streptococcus pyogenes

Phytomedicine Plus
Background: Phospholipids are significant constituents of bacterial membranes. Bacteria can alter their cytoplasmic membrane fatty acid composition in response to changing environmental stress conditions. Carvacrol, a mono-terpenoid phenol, has excellent

The cardiolipin analogues of Archaea

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 2009
The present article reviews studies of the structure and functional roles of the cardiolipin analogues of extremely halophilic prokaryotes belonging to the Archaea domain. Analogies and differences between the archaeal bisphosphatidylglycerol and the mitochondrial cardiolipin are presented. Furthermore the structure of archaeal glycophospholipid dimers

Toward understanding the catalytic mechanism for two classes of bacterial phospholipid N‐methyltransferases

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Phospholipid N‐methyltransferases (Pmts) synthesize phosphatidylcholine in many bacteria. In this study, we compared the catalytic mechanisms of two bacterial Pmt classes: the Rhodobacter (R‐) and the Sinorhizobium (S‐) type. Representative enzymes for each class were derived from Rubellimicrobium thermophilum and Agrobacterium tumefaciens ...
