Rheumatoid arthritis and citrullination [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Rheumatology, 2018
Purpose of reviewDysregulated citrullination is a key element that drives the production and maintenance of antibodies to citrullinated proteins, a hallmark in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). This article reviews recent literature on the origin of citrullinated antigens in RA.Recent findingsThe study of synovial fluid from patients with RA has provided ...

l-Citrulline dilates rat retinal arterioles via nitric oxide- and prostaglandin-dependent pathways in vivo

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2015
l-Citrulline is an effective precursor of l-arginine produced by the l-citrulline/l-arginine cycle, and it exerts beneficial effects on the cardiovascular system by supporting enhanced nitric oxide (NO) production.

Chemoreactomic analysis of citrulline malate molecules

open access: yesНеврология, нейропсихиатрия, психосоматика, 2017
Citrulline malate that is essential for the biosynthesis of arginine promotes dehydration of ammonium endotoxins, by participating in the urea cycle. The indications for the use of citrulline malate are functional asthenia, asthenic syndrome, overfatigue,

Does canine inflammatory bowel disease influence gut microbial profile and host metabolism? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) refers to a diverse group of chronic gastrointestinal diseases, and gut microbial dysbiosis has been proposed as a modulating factor in its pathogenesis.

Estrogen stimulates dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase activity and the metabolism of asymmetric dimethylarginine. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Background— Experimental evidence suggests that estrogens stimulate the production of nitric oxide (NO) by vascular endothelial cells. This effect has been attributed to increased expression and enzymatic activity of both the constitutive and inducible ...

Citrullination and Autophagy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
During evolution, the eukaryotic cells develop different processes in order to adapt themselves to environmental changes, as well as to die or to survive. These processes include apoptosis, NETosis, and autophagy: citrullination is implicated in all of these physiological mechanisms.

Autophagy, citrullination and cancer [PDF]

open access: yesAutophagy, 2016
A cell needs to maintain a balance between biosynthesis and degradation of cellular components to maintain homeostasis. There are 2 pathways, the proteasome, which degrades short-lived proteins, and the autophagy/lysosomal pathway, which degrades long-lived proteins and organelles. Both of these pathways are also involved in antigen presentation or the

Increased plasma citrulline in mice marks diet-induced obesity and may predict the development of the metabolic syndrome. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
In humans, plasma amino acid concentrations of branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) and aromatic amino acids (AAA) increase in states of obesity, insulin resistance and diabetes.

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...
