The interaction between Cyclophilin A and CD147 and its clinical significance in periodontal diseases

open access: yes口腔疾病防治, 2021
Cyclophilin A (CypA) is the first foldable enzyme in human cells that has peptidyl proliferase-trans isomerase activity and has a strong proinflammatory effect. CD147 can act as the signal receptor of CypA. The interaction of the two through cell-surface

Assisted evolution enables HIV-1 to overcome a high trim5α-imposed genetic barrier to rhesus macaque tropism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Diversification of antiretroviral factors during host evolution has erected formidable barriers to cross-species retrovirus transmission. This phenomenon likely protects humans from infection by many modern retroviruses, but it has also impaired the ...

Mitochondrial Thioredoxin System as a Modulator of Cyclophilin D Redox State [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The mitochondrial thioredoxin system (NADPH, thioredoxin reductase, thioredoxin) is a major redox regulator. Here we have investigated the redox correlation between this system and the mitochondrial enzyme cyclophilin D.

Peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerases (immunophilins) and their roles in parasite biochemistry, host-parasite interaction and antiparasitic drug action. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Immunophilin is the collective name given to the cyclophilin and FK506-binding protein (FKBP) families. As the name suggests, these include the major binding proteins of certain immunosuppressive drugs: cyclophilins for the cyclic peptide cyclosporin A ...

Cyclophilin A: a novel biomarker for cardiovascular disease in patients with type 2 diabetes

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Internal Medicine, 2019
Background and aims Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) is a strong independent risk factor for coronary heart disease. Cyclophilin A (CyPA) is a protein secreted from vascular smooth muscle cells in response to reactive oxygen species.
