Analytical study of three cystatin C assays and their impact on cystatin C-based GFR-prediction equations. [PDF]

, 2008
peer reviewedBACKGROUND: Cystatin C-based equations are used to estimate GFR. However, three cystatin C immunoassays are on the market. Difference in cystatin C assays could have strong consequences on the accuracy and precision of cystatin C-based ...

The Anti-Angiogenic Activity of a Cystatin F Homologue from the Buccal Glands of Lampetra morii

Marine Drugs, 2018
Cystatins are a family of cysteine protease inhibitors which are associated with a variety of physiological and pathological processes in vivo. In the present study, the cDNA sequence of a cystatin F homologue called Lm-cystatin F was cloned from the ...

PEG400 regulates Falcipain 2 activity through an allosteric mechanism

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Falcipain‐2 can potentially be leveraged as a drug target due to its critical role as a haemoglobinase during the intra‐erythrocytic stage of Plasmodium falciparum. Here, we investigate the regulation of the proteolytic and haemoglobinase activity of falcipain‐2 in the presence of polyethylene glycol.

Real‐world clinical and laboratory changes after switching to two‐drug regimen in HIV‐suppressed individuals: 48 weeks and beyond

HIV Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Two‐drug regimens (2DRs) may reduce long‐term drug toxicities and drug‐drug interactions for people with HIV (PWH) on antiretroviral therapy (ART). This study evaluated clinical and laboratory outcomes in PWH who switched from standard ART to dolutegravir and lamivudine (DTG + 3TC) in real‐world settings.

From biology to biotechnology: Host‐regulation factors from parasitoid wasps are a source of bioactive molecules with translational potential

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Parasitoid wasps deploy maternal and embryonic factors to reprogramme host physiology. Venom, calyx fluid, polydnaviruses, teratocytes and larval secretions act in a coordinated, compartmentalised manner. Host‐regulation factors are promising sources of insecticidal, antimicrobial and bioinspired translational molecules.
