Association of cyclophilins and cardiovascular risk factors in coronary artery disease
Cyclophilins are chaperone proteins that play important roles in signal transduction. Among them, cyclophilins A, B, C, and D were widely associated with inflammation and cardiovascular diseases. Cyclophilins A and C have been proposed as coronary artery

Cyclophilin‐B is an abundant protein whose conformation is similar to cyclophilin‐A [PDF]
Cyclophilin‐B (bCyP‐20) was isolated in a relatively high quantity from calf brain and spleen tissues consecutively applying weak cation exchange, chromatofocusing and strong cation exchange chromatographies. Edman degradation yielded the N‐terminal sequence NH2‐DEKKKGPKVTVK‐VYFDLRIGDEDIGRVVIGLFGKTVPKTVDNFVAL.

Extracellular cyclophilins A and C induce dysfunction of pancreatic microendothelial cells
Extracellular cyclophilins (eCyps) A and B are chemotactic mediators in several illnesses in which inflammation plays an important role such as diabetes and cardiovascular diseases.

Delineation of the calcineurin‐interacting region of cyclophilin B [PDF]
AbstractThe immunosuppressant drug cyclosporin A (CsA) inhibits T‐cell function by blocking the phosphatase activity of calcineurin. This effect is mediated by formation of a complex between the drug and cyclophilin (CyP), which creates a composite surface able to make high‐affinity contacts with calcineurin.

Overexpression, purification, and characterization of yeast cyclophilins A and B [PDF]
AbstractTwo isoforms of yeast cyclophilins, yCyPA and yCyPB, have been subcloned, expressed in Escherichia coli, and purified to homogeneity. The full‐length (163‐amino acid) yeast CyPA was easily expressed and purified; however, only a genetically truncated, 186‐residue form of yCyPB lacking a putative 20‐amino acid signal sequence could be purified ...

Genomic and proteomic analysis of Schizaphis graminum reveals cyclophilin proteins are involved in the transmission of cereal yellow dwarf virus. [PDF]
Yellow dwarf viruses cause the most economically important virus diseases of cereal crops worldwide and are transmitted by aphid vectors. The identification of aphid genes and proteins mediating virus transmission is critical to develop agriculturally ...

Inhibition of calcineurin by cyclosporin A‐cyclophilin requires calcineurin B [PDF]
The interaction of the immunosuppressive complex cyclosporin A‐cyclophilin (CsA‐CyP) with the Ca2+/calmodulin‐dependent protein phosphatase calcineurin is investigated using a recombinant form of the A subunit of calcineurin (rCNA). Only in the presence of purified calcineurin B (CNB) does rCNA show the response of native calcineurin, i.e.

The intranuclear prolactin/cyclophilin B complex as a transcriptional inducer [PDF]
The nuclear translocation of peptide hormones, such as the somatolactogenic hormone prolactin, after receptor internalization has been widely reported. Prolactin has been demonstrated to interact with cyclophilin B, a member of the immunophilin family of proteins.

Synapsin associates with cyclophilin B in an ATP‐ and cyclosporin A‐dependent manner [PDF]
AbstractImmunophilins are ubiquitous enzymes responsible for proline isomerisation during protein synthesis and for the chaperoning of several membrane proteins. These activities can be blocked by the immunosuppressants cyclosporin A, FK506 and rapamycin.
