Beyond Tradition: An Integrated Toxicological, Ecological, and Public Health Perspective on Aristolochic Acids

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 8, Page 2599-2622, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Aristolochia species have long been used in traditional medicine for their presumed anti‐inflammatory, analgesic and antimicrobial properties. However, extensive toxicological and epidemiological evidence now demonstrates that these plants contain aristolochic acids (AAs) I and II, highly potent nephrotoxic, genotoxic, and carcinogenic ...

De novo or Salvage? Nucleotide Availability as a Driver of Bacterial Adaptation and Virulence

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 4, August 2026.
Bacterial pathogens survive in different host environments by switching between making nucleotides by de novo synthesis and scavenging them from the host. This flexibility supports growth and virulence making nucleotide metabolism an attractive therapeutic target.

A unified mechanism of enzymatic synthesis of two calcium messengers: Cyclic ADP-ribose and NAADP

open access: yes, 1999
Cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR) and nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) mobilize Ca2+ from two different types of intracellular stores and through completely independent mechanisms.

Cyclic ADP-Ribose Modulates Intracellular Calcium Homeostasis and Anagen-Associated Signaling Pathways in Human Hair Follicle Dermal Papilla Cells

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Background: Hair loss (alopecia) is primarily driven by the premature transition of hair follicles from the anagen (growth) to the catagen (regression) phase.

The X‐Ray Crystal Structure of BorF, the Flavin Reductase Subunit of a Two‐Component Flavin‐Dependent Tryptophan Halogenase

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 94, Issue 8, Page 1529-1540, August 2026.
ABSTRACT BorF is a short‐chain flavin reductase from a desert soil bacterium that uses NADH to reduce FAD to FADH2, which is used by the tryptophan‐6‐halogenase BorH to chlorinate tryptophan in the biosynthetic pathway of borregomycin A. The X‐ray crystal structure of BorF bound to FAD was solved to 2.37 Å by molecular replacement.

Bradykinin activates ADP-ribosyl cyclase in neuroblastoma cells: Intracellular concentration decrease in NAD and increase in cyclic ADP-ribose

open access: yes, 2006
ADP-ribosyl cyclase activity in the crude membrane fraction of neuroblastoma×glioma NGPM1-27 hybrid cells was measured by monitoring [3H] cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR) formation from [3H] NAD+.

The metalloproteinase ADAM17 promotes acute lung inflammatory responses during pancreatitis

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 15, Page 4126-4144, August 2026.
Background and Purpose Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a multifactorial upper gastrointestinal inflammatory disorder that in severe cases (~20% of all AP) is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, the latter coincident with multiorgan dysfunction, particularly acute lung injury (ALI).

Flourescent analogs of cyclic ADP-ribose: Synthesis, spectral characterization, and use

open access: yes, 1996
Cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR) is a Ca2+-mobilizing cyclic nucleotide derived from NAD+. Accumulating evidence indicates that it is an endogenous modulator of the Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release mechanism in cells.

PARP inhibitors induce a senescence phenotype in non‐small cell lung carcinoma cell lines

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, Volume 16, Issue 7, Page 1370-1386, July 2026.
Talazoparib is the most potent inducer of senescence among different PARP1 inhibitors in human NSCLC cells. In the absence of PARP, no senescence phenotype was observed, demonstrating that PARP1 is necessary for the induction of senescence by this inhibitor.

Cyclic ADP-ribose does not affect cardiac or skeletal muscle ryanodine receptors

open access: yes, 1994
The cardiac muscle isoform of the ryanodine receptor/Ca2+ release channel (RYR) has been proposed to be an important target of cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR) action in mammalian cells. However, we now demonstrate that neither cADPR (0.1–5 μM), nor the related
