Partial characterization of the digestive proteases and α-amylase of the larvae of the red palm weevil, Rhynchophorus ferrugineus [PDF]
Arthropods, 2020 Activity of digestive enzymes (trypsin, chymotrypsin and α-amylase) in soluble protein extracted from the larval gut of Rhynchophorus ferrugineus was studied using specific substrates and enzyme inhibitors.

Males are worse mothers: Comparing care patterns in a facultatively caring beetle
Insect Science, EarlyView.Why should biparental care exist if offspring fare just as well when only one parent is present? In the facultatively dependent burying beetle, Nicrophorus vespilloides, manipulating environmental quality reveals that biparental care benefits offspring in form of lower personal immune requirement and parents in term of weight gain.

The Airway Transcriptome in Type 2 Cytokine Biomarker‐High and ‐Low Severe Asthma
Allergy, EarlyView.This study distinguishes severe asthma–related airway transcriptomic changes from the effects of high‐dose ICS. Most dysregulated genes in severe asthma show concordance with corticosteroid responses. Corticosteroid‐resistant T2‐high asthma featured T2‐high and epithelial barrier gene upregulation, while T2‐low asthma featured Th1/IL‐17 signatures. ASM,

Covalent drug discovery: Progress against key targets, emerging strategies and lessons learnt
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Abstract Covalent drug discovery is currently experiencing a boom in industrial and academic interest. To date, at least 75 covalent drugs have received regulatory approval, targeting both traditional target classes and more challenging proteins for which other approaches failed. In many cases, unique aspects of covalent targeting are essential for the

Heart failure medication to prevent cancer therapy–related cardiac dysfunction: A narrative review
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Advances in oncological therapies have improved cancer survival but also have increased the clinical incidence of cancer therapy–related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD), a spectrum of conditions ranging from subclinical biomarker or strain abnormalities to progressive heart failure and cardiogenic shock.

Stimulating proteasomal degradation in human proteinopathies
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.The proteasome mediates the degradation of a wide range of proteins. Boosting proteasomal degradation may be beneficial in several disease contexts and can be achieved either by modulating proteasome activity or by improving substrate delivery. Proteasome activity can be enhanced by increasing proteasome abundance, inducing constitutive gate opening ...

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background The bioactive molecules released from dentine are key to stem‐cell recruitment, proliferation and differentiation in regenerative endodontics. However, there is limited and conflicting information regarding current and potential agents for releasing dentine bioactive molecules for regenerative endodontic procedures.

Malaria mosquito antimicrobial defence requires immunity and detoxification gene regulation by Lola
Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.Malaria mosquito antimicrobial defence requires upregulation of lola. Attenuation of lola in the midgut of Anopheles albimanus mosquitoes inhibits the upregulation of immunity genes induced by challenge. Putative target genes of the Lola transcription factor were revealed by lola attenuation, including Cecropin‐C, Draper, PPAF2, Clip‐domain serine ...

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.Parasitoid wasps deploy maternal and embryonic factors to reprogramme host physiology. Venom, calyx fluid, polydnaviruses, teratocytes and larval secretions act in a coordinated, compartmentalised manner. Host‐regulation factors are promising sources of insecticidal, antimicrobial and bioinspired translational molecules.
