Neutrophil Secretory Proteins Inhibit Calcium Oxalate Crystallisation and Crystal Growth, but Promote Crystal Aggregation

Immunology, Volume 179, Issue 1, Page 101-117, September 2026.
Calcium oxalate monohydrate (COM) crystals cause changes in the secretion of 29 proteins from neutrophil‐like cells, including those involved in neutrophil immune activation and intracellular metabolic adaptation. The neutrophil secreted proteins (secretome) also inhibit calcium oxalate crystallisation and crystal growth, but promote crystal ...

Piscirickettsiosis in Farmed Turbot, Scophthalmus maximus

Journal of Fish Diseases, Volume 49, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Piscirickettsia salmonis is a well‐established intracellular pathogen of farmed Atlantic salmon around the world. The bacterium has also been detected from a number of other hosts including lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus), seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax) and rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss).

Downstream Pathways of Dystrophin Deficiency in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy: Implications for Muscle Degeneration and Regeneration

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is the most common and severe form of muscular dystrophy, primarily affecting skeletal muscle and leading to premature death. Although the loss of dystrophin has long been recognised as the primary cause of the disease, no definitive cure is currently available. As a consequence, therapeutic efforts

SIRT Family: Biological Functions and Therapeutic Targets

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2026.
SIRT1–SIRT7 networks from transgenic mice to human‑relevant therapeutic targets. SIRT1–SIRT7 form an isoform‑, organ‑, and disease‑specific regulatory network. Transgenic Sirt1–7 mouse models define central regulatory SIRTs (SIRT1, SIRT3, SIRT6), context‑dependent modifiers (SIRT2, SIRT4, SIRT5, SIRT7), and their key mechanisms and target organs. These

Hepatitis C Virus NS5A Protein Is a Substrate for the Peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans Isomerase Activity of Cyclophilins A and B*

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2009
We report here a biochemical and structural characterization of domain 2 of the nonstructural 5A protein (NS5A) from the JFH1 Hepatitis C virus strain and its interactions with cyclophilins A and B (CypA and CypB). Gel filtration chromatography, circular

Cyclosporine inhibits a direct interaction between cyclophilins and hepatitis C NS5A.

PLoS ONE, 2010
BackgroundHepatitis C Virus (HCV) infection is a leading indication for liver transplantation. HCV infection reoccurs almost universally post transplant, decreasing both graft longevity and patient survival.

Peptidylprolyl Isomerases as In Vivo Carriers for Drugs That Target Various Intracellular Entities

Biomolecules, 2017
Analyses of sequences and structures of the cyclosporine A (CsA)-binding proteins (cyclophilins) and the immunosuppressive macrolide FK506-binding proteins (FKBPs) have revealed that they exhibit peculiar spatial distributions of charges, their overall ...

Pathogenesis of Tuberculosis: Interplay Between Host Antituberculosis Immunity and Immune Evasion Strategies of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2026.
Mycobacterium tuberculosis–host interactions and infection outcomes. Following initial infection, alveolar macrophages phagocytose the pathogen, prompting the recruitment of innate immune cells including neutrophils, NK cells, and interstitial macrophages.

Overexpression, purification and assessment of cyclosporin binding of a family of cyclophilins and cyclophilin-like proteins of the human malarial parasite Plasmodium falciparum.

Protein Expression and Purification, 2011
Malaria represents a global health, economic and social burden of enormous magnitude. Chemotherapy is at the moment a largely effective weapon against the disease, but the appearance of drug-resistant parasites is reducing the effectiveness of most drugs.
