Creatine kinase elevation and discontinuation of clozapine: fear-driven clinical practice in a forensic case with treatment-resistant schizophrenia and persistent violent behaviour

open access: yesBJPsych Open, 2021
In forensic settings, the most common indication for clozapine is treatment-resistant schizophrenia (TRS). Clozapine has also been shown to be effective in reducing hostility, aggression and violence in patients with schizophrenia and is of benefit in ...

Muscle inactivation of mTOR causes metabolic and dystrophin defects leading to severe myopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a key regulator of cell growth that associates with raptor and rictor to form the mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) and mTORC2, respectively.

Specific lid-base contacts in the 26s proteasome control the conformational switching required for substrate degradation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The 26S proteasome is essential for proteostasis and the regulation of vital processes through ATP-dependent degradation of ubiquitinated substrates. To accomplish the multi-step degradation process, the proteasomes regulatory particle, consisting of lid

Behavioural changes are a major contributing factor in the reduction of sarcopenia in calorie-restricted ageing mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: In rodent models, caloric restriction (CR) with maintenance of adequate micronutrient supply has been reported to increase lifespan and to reduce age-induced muscle loss (sarcopenia) during ageing.

Regulation of T cell development and activation by creatine kinase B.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
Creatine kinase catalyzes the reversible transfer of the N-phosphoryl group from phosphocreatine to ADP to generate ATP and plays a key role in highly energy-demanding processes such as muscle contraction and flagellar motility; however, its role in ...

Ckmt1 is Dispensable for Mitochondrial Bioenergetics Within White/Beige Adipose Tissue

open access: yesFunction, 2022
Within brown adipose tissue (BAT), the brain isoform of creatine kinase (CKB) has been proposed to regulate the regeneration of ADP and phosphocreatine in a futile creatine cycle (FCC) that stimulates energy expenditure. However, the presence of FCC, and
