Periodontitis and Rheumatoid Arthritis—Mechanistic Evidence

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis are linked via the two‐hit model whereby early periodontal inflammation can lead to autoantibody production capable of interacting with inflamed synovial tissues. Subsequent systemic inflammation can exacerbate the periodontal inflammatory response and bacterial dysbiosis leading to further autoantibody production

Citrullination in tumor immunity and therapy

Journal of Clinical Investigation
Peptidyl arginine deiminases (PADs) catalyze the conversion of arginine residues into peptidyl citrulline, a posttranslational modification known as protein citrullination (or arginine deimination). This process alters the charge of proteins from positive to neutral, thereby affecting their folding, stability, conformation, and function.

Chitosan-coated nanoliposomes as vehicles for l-citrulline: Preparation, characterization, antioxidant properties, and nanovesicles behavior

Carbohydrate Polymer Technologies and Applications
L-Citrulline is classified as a non-essential amino acid that plays a role in the nitric oxide system in humans. It offers potential antioxidant benefits and may aid in promoting vasodilation.

Novel Amino Acid Changes Increase Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxylase Output in planta

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Characterization of previously reported Arabidopsis mutants with increased aluminum (Al) resistance (alr) resulting from greater release of Al‐chelating malate identified three unique amino acid substitutions that each impacts PHOSPHOENOLPYRUVATE CARBOXYLASE 1, a key anaplerotic carbon fixation enzyme.

Efficacy of Teduglutide in Pediatric Short Bowel Syndrome: Association with Citrulline Levels and Anatomical Location of Remnant Small Intestine

Children
Background/Objectives: Short bowel syndrome (SBS) is the leading cause of pediatric intestinal failure. Plasma citrulline is considered a marker indicating an enterocyte volume and may help evaluate the response to teduglutide; however, this ...

Pinus‐derived membrane vesicles disrupt pathogenic metabolism in fungi

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Needle‐derived vesicles from pine trees impair fungal metabolism and growth, offering a sustainable strategy to control pine pitch canker disease. Abstract Much of what we know about the biological impacts of vesicles (MVs) is derived from Arabidopsis thaliana.

Periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis—Global efforts to untangle two complex diseases

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding the impact of oral health on rheumatoid arthritis (RA) will inform how best to manage patients with both periodontitis and RA. This review seeks to provide an update on interventional and mechanistic investigations, including a brief summary of European Research programs investigating the link between periodontitis and RA. Recent

Clinical, biochemical, and molecular profiles of three Sri Lankan neonates with pyruvate carboxylase deficiency

Advances in Laboratory Medicine
Pyruvate carboxylase, a mitochondrial enzyme, catalyses the conversion of glycolytic end-product pyruvate to tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediate, oxaloacetate. Rare pyruvate carboxylase deficiency manifests in three clinical and biochemical phenotypes:

Metabolic pattern across energy imbalance: An exploratory metabolomics study of female body weight extremes including anorexia nervosa and athletes

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract In anorexia nervosa (AN), prolonged metabolic adaptation to severe energy deficiency can impair treatment efficacy. Similarly, low energy availability poses a recognized risk to athletes, potentially compromising health and performance. This cross‐sectional study aimed to characterize the plasma metabolic pattern of females with varying ...

Plant‐protein supplementation improves thermoregulatory responses and ameliorates markers of intestinal damage during exercise in the heat

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exercise in the heat often causes gastrointestinal (GI) disturbances, which can impair performance. Single amino acid supplementation can attenuate gut damage and enhance exercise tolerance; however, the effectiveness of innate amino acid blends from plant‐based proteins remains underexplored.
