Structural Insights Into the Function of Leishmania major Adenylosuccinate Lyase

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT One of several intriguing aspects of kinetoplastid biochemistry is the complete dependence on host purines and purine recycling due to the lack of a de novo purine biosynthesis pathway. Adenylosuccinate lyase (ASL, EC 4.3.2.2) is a key enzyme in the purine synthesis pathway responsible for the conversion of adenylosuccinate into adenosine ...

Impact of barometric pressure on blood pressure during dialysis: Introducing intradialytic time‐averaged cumulative systolic blood pressure (TACsBP‐inD) as a new metric

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, Volume 29, Issue 3, Page 525-534, June 2025.
Abstract Background Blood pressure is a crucial risk factor for hemodialysis patients, but the specific impact of weather factors, particularly barometric pressure, on blood pressure remains unclear. This study aims to examine the relationship between barometric pressure and blood pressure in hemodialysis patients. Methods We conducted a single‐center,

Slit2/Robo Signaling Restores Diabetic Erectile Function via Neurovascular Remodeling

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Diabetes mellitus‐induced erectile dysfunction (DMED) is a common and debilitating vascular‐neurogenic complication of diabetes. The poor responsiveness of DMED patients to phosphodiesterase type‐5 inhibitors underscores the need for therapies capable of restoring both endothelial integrity and cavernous nerve function.

Renal‐vascular axis: unmasking its role in vascular endothelial growth factor‐inhibitor vascular toxicity in cancer patients

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Vascular toxicity is a growing concern in cancer patients receiving vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitor (VEGFi) therapy, posing a significant threat to patient prognosis. While the primary mechanism of VEGFi‐induced vascular toxicity is linked to redox‐sensitive reactions that disrupt vascular tone, leading to hypertension and ...

Biomimetic MCC950‐loaded cerium‐layered double hydroxide nanoparticles for targeted treatment of Type 1 diabetes in streptozotocin‐induced mice

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
The CLMBM nanoparticle (NP) system demonstrates strong and targeted anti‐ROS, antiapoptotic and anti‐inflammatory properties within the pancreas, thereby inhibiting the onset and progression of type 1 diabetes. Background and Purpose The destruction of β‐cells in type 1 diabetes is driven by signalling cascades that ultimately lead to cell apoptosis ...

Fn14 signalling participates in pristane‐induced murine lupus through exacerbating oxidative stress

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease characterized by oxidative stress and immune dysregulation. Fibroblast growth factor‐inducible 14 (Fn14) has been implicated in tissue injury, but its specific role in SLE pathogenesis remains unclear.
