Cyclosporin, Tacrolimus, Mycophenolic Acid, and Dexamethasone Suppress Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cell Proliferation and Inhibit Interferon-Gamma, IL-10 and IL-13 Production In Vitro

Turkish Journal of Immunology
Objective: The primary goals of immunosuppressive therapy are to prevent graft rejection and to improve graft and patient survival. Long-term maintenance therapy after kidney transplantation includes cyclosporine A (CsA), tacrolimus (FK506), mycophenolic

How much Child Sexual Abuse is below the surface, and can we help adults identify it early?

Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2013
Child sexual abuse (CSA) occurs frequently in society to children aged between 2 – 17. It is significantly more common in girls than boys, with the peak age for CSA occurring when girls are aged 13-17.

Nuclear Translocation of PFKFB3 Promotes Disuse‐Induced Muscle Atrophy via Scaffolding Nedd4‐Mediated JunB Ubiquitination

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Disuse‐induced muscle atrophy is driven by a non‐metabolic, nuclear function of the enzyme PFKFB3. Acting as a scaffold, PFKFB3 facilitates Nedd4‐mediated ubiquitination and degradation of the anti‐atrophy transcription factor JunB. Inhibiting this novel PFKFB3–Nedd4–JunB signaling axis stabilizes JunB and alleviates muscle wasting, revealing a highly ...

Zinc Fingers as Programmable Metalloprotein Scaffolds for Altering Pathogenic Biomolecular Phase Transitions

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Modular zinc finger (ZF) metalloproteins function as programmable biomolecular scaffolds that modulate pathogenic amyloid assembly. Through direct protein–protein interactions, ZF arrays alter amyloid phase behavior and redirect β‐sheet fibrillization toward nontoxic aggregates.

Viability and molecular authentication of Coccidioides immitis strains from culture collection of the Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Viabilidade e autenticação molecular de cepas de Coccidioides immitis da coleção de culturas do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, Rio de Janeiro, Brasil

Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2006
Twenty Coccidioides immitis strains were evaluated. Only 5 of the 20 strains kept under mineral oil maintained their viability while all 5 subcultures preserved in water remained viable and none of the 13 subcultures kept in soil were viable.

Developing Metal–Polyphenol Network‐Based Single‐Protein Particle Encapsulation System for Sustained Release of Whey Protein to Mitigate Sarcopenia

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Sarcopenia has emerged as a major health challenge in the aging population. Developing a sustained‐release system for whey protein may enhance its effectiveness in mitigating sarcopenia. Herein, a novel “single‐protein particle encapsulation” (SPPE) system is developed to protect whey protein and control its release.

A Spatiotemporal Single‐Cell Atlas Uncovers Dysregulated ECM Dynamics and Septal Remodeling Arrest in Human Ventricular Septal Defects

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Integrating single‐cell and spatial transcriptomics reveals human ventricular septal defect (VSD) as a disease of microenvironmental insufficiency and structural remodeling arrest. Attenuated endothelial‐fibroblast crosstalk, alongside downregulated THBS1/TGF‐β1 and MMP2 signaling networks, impairs the endothelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EndoMT) and

Mitochondrial Protection and Neural Repair via ROS‐Responsive Biomimetic Nanoparticles in Intracerebral Hemorrhage

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A ROS‐responsive biomimetic nanoparticle platform co‐delivers DIDS and Mdivi‐1 to protect mitochondria and promote neural repair after intracerebral hemorrhage. By targeting LPAR1/VDAC1‐related mitochondrial dysfunction, the nanotherapy reduces oxidative injury, neuronal apoptosis, and blood‐brain barrier disruption, improving neurological recovery and

Conformation‐Selective Binding Domains of Intramolecular Chemically Induced Protein Dimerisation Systems

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Intramolecular chemically induced dimerisation transforms FK506‐ and cyclosporine A‐responsive protein pairs into high‐affinity pseudo‐allosteric switches. Holo‐selective binders isolated by mRNA display convert these switches into gain‐of‐signal biosensors and ultrasensitive ELISAs, enabling direct quantification of both immunosuppressants in ...

Potential Synergy Activity of the Novel Ceragenin, CSA-13, against Carbapenem-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii Strains Isolated from Bacteremia Patients [PDF]

, 2020
Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii is an important cause of nosocomial infections, particularly in patients in the intensive care units. As chronic infections are difficult to treat, attempts have been made to discover new antimicrobials ...
