Comparative proteomics analysis of root and nodule mitochondria of soybean
Abstract Legumes perform symbiotic nitrogen fixation through rhizobial bacteroids housed in specialised root nodules. The biochemical process is energy‐intensive and consumes a huge carbon source to generate sufficient reducing power. To maintain the symbiosis, malate is supplied by legume nodules to bacteroids as their major carbon and energy source ...

Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1) is a cancer stem cell marker in several malignancies. We established a novel epithelial cell line from rectal adenocarcinoma with unique overexpression of this enzyme. Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 led to increased invasive capacity and metastatic potential, the inhibition of proliferation activity, and ultimately ...

Muscarinic receptor drug trihexyphenidyl can alter growth of mesenchymal glioblastoma in vivo
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most commonly occurring and most aggressive primary brain tumor. Transcriptomics-based tumor subtype classification has established the mesenchymal lineage of GBM (MES-GBM) as cancers with particular aggressive behavior and high

Domain Organization, Catalysis and Regulation of Eukaryotic Cystathionine Beta-Synthases
Cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS) is a key regulator of sulfur amino acid metabolism diverting homocysteine, a toxic intermediate of the methionine cycle, via the transsulfuration pathway to the biosynthesis of cysteine. Although the pathway itself is well conserved among eukaryotes, properties of eukaryotic CBS enzymes vary greatly.

Hydrogen Sulfide Signaling Axis as a Target for Prostate Cancer Therapeutics
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) was originally considered toxic at elevated levels; however just in the past decade H2S has been proposed to be an important gasotransmitter with various physiological and pathophysiological roles in the body.
