TSE pathogenesis in cattle and sheep [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Many studies have been undertaken in rodents to study the pathogenesis of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSE). Only a few studies have focused on the pathogenesis of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) and scrapie in their natural hosts ...

Pyridoxal Reprograms Peroxisomal Hydrogen Peroxide Metabolism to Induce Lethal Oxidative Stress in Ovarian Cancer

open access: yesiMetaMed, EarlyView.
Pyridoxal (PL) exhibits the strongest anti‐tumor activity within the vitamin B6 family, demonstrating significant ovarian cancer cell‐killing efficacy in vivo, in vitro, and in patient‐derived organoid (PDO) models. The anti‐tumor mechanism involves PL inducing a shift in peroxisome dynamics towards fission, promoting peroxisome proliferation, and ...

Molecular Model of Prion Transmission to Humans

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2009
To assess interspecies barriers to transmission of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies, we investigated the ability of disease-associated prion proteins (PrPd) to initiate conversion of the human normal cellular form of prion protein of the 3 major

Cellular Prion Protein Promotes Brucella Infection into Macrophages [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Experimental Medicine, 2003
The products of the Brucella abortus virB gene locus, which are highly similar to conjugative DNA transfer system, enable the bacterium to replicate within macrophage vacuoles. The replicative phagosome is thought to be established by the interaction of a substrate of the VirB complex with macrophages, although the substrate and its host cellular ...

A personal 360° view of applications of ‘biomimetic’ molecular recognition

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.
Abstract Molecular recognition between biological molecules has formed the basis for innumerable applications in biotechnology for the last seven decades or so. Techniques such as affinity chromatography, solid‐phase and aqueous two‐phase extraction, affinity precipitation, biomimetic catalytic systems, biosensors and molecular imprinting all exploit ...

Roles of prion proteins in mammalian development

open access: yesAnimal Cells and Systems
Prion protein (PrP) is highly conserved and is expressed in most tissues in a developmental stage-specific manner. Glycosylated cellular prion protein (PrPC) is found in most cells and subcellular areas as a physiological regulating molecule.

Oncogenic KRAS Rewires Stress Granule Dynamics: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Opportunities

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stress granules (SGs) are dynamic, membrane‐less structures that form in response to various cellular stresses, including metabolic, oxidative, and therapeutic challenges. They function as adaptive hubs and reorganize protein synthesis and signaling networks to help cells survive under stress. In cancer, these condensates are often hijacked to

Cellular Aspects of Prion Replication In Vitro

open access: yesViruses, 2013
Prion diseases or transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) are fatal neurodegenerative disorders in mammals that are caused by unconventional agents predominantly composed of aggregated misfolded prion protein (PrP).
