Cyclophilins: Less Studied Proteins with Critical Roles in Pathogenesis
Cyclophilins (EC 5.2.1.8) belong to a subgroup of proteins known as immunophilins, which also include FK506-binding proteins and parvulins. Members of the immunophilins have two main characteristic properties: (i) peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase ...

Cyclophilin D in mitochondrial pathophysiology
Cyclophilins are a family of peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerases whose enzymatic activity can be inhibited by cyclosporin A. Sixteen cyclophilins have been identified in humans, and cyclophilin D is a unique isoform that is imported into the mitochondrial matrix.

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.

Caspofungin heteroresistance is prevalent in clinical Candida glabrata isolates and depends on calcineurin‐mediated stress adaptation. This transient phenotype serves as a reservoir for resistance evolution, enabling the emergence of stable resistant descendants under prolonged drug pressure.

Previous work in our laboratory (Montague, J., Gaido, M., Frye, C., and Cidlowski, J. (1994) J. Biol. Chem. 269, 18877-18880) has shown that human recombinant cyclophilins A, B, and C have sequence homology with the apoptotic nuclease NUC18 and that ...

This study integrates random matrix theory (RMT) and principal component analysis (PCA) to improve the identification of correlated regions in HIV protein sequences for vaccine design. PCA validation enhances the reliability of RMT‐derived correlations, particularly in small‐sample, high‐dimensional datasets, enabling more accurate detection of ...

Nuclear cyclophilins affect spliceosome assembly and function in vitro.
Cyclophilins are ubiquitously expressed proteins that bind to prolines and can catalyse cis/trans isomerization of proline residues. There are 17 annotated members of the cyclophilin family in humans, ubiquitously expressed and localized variously to the

Daily insulin administration in streptozotocin‐induced diabetic rats prevented cardiac damage associated with diabetic cardiomyopathy, including hypertrophy, fibrosis, and expression of cell death markers, at 12 weeks. However, cyclophilin D, a marker of mitochondrial permeability transition pore‐opening‐associated cell death (necrosis), was observed ...

Intracellularly induced cyclophilins play an important role in stress adaptation and virulence of brucella abortus [PDF]
Brucella is an intracellular bacterial pathogen that causes the worldwide zoonotic disease brucellosis. Brucella virulence relies on its ability to transition to an intracellular lifestyle within host cells.

Essential role of cyclophilin A for hepatitis C virus replication and virus production and possible link to polyprotein cleavage kinetics. [PDF]
Viruses are obligate intracellular parasites and therefore their replication completely depends on host cell factors. In case of the hepatitis C virus (HCV), a positive-strand RNA virus that in the majority of infections establishes persistence ...
