KLK7 overexpression promotes an aggressive phenotype and facilitates peritoneal dissemination in colorectal cancer cells

FEBS Open Bio, Volume 16, Issue 5, Page 1000-1019, May 2026.
KLK7, a tissue kallikrein‐related peptidase, is elevated in advanced colorectal cancer and associated with shorter survival. High KLK7 levels in ascites correlate with peritoneal metastasis. In mice, KLK7 overexpression increases metastasis. In vitro, KLK7 enhances cancer cell proliferation, migration, adhesion, and spheroid formation, driving ...

Novel Insights Into the Association Between Parkinson's Disease and Constipation: Role of SHMT2 as a Promising Biomarker

CNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study integrated bioinformatics analysis, cellular models, and PD/constipation mouse models to identify SHMT2 as a key shared biomarker linking Parkinson's disease and constipation. SHMT2 upregulation was validated in dopaminergic neurons and the enteric nervous system, highlighting its potential role in gut–brain axis dysfunction.

Crystal Structure of Crataeva tapia Bark Protein (CrataBL) and Its Effect in Human Prostate Cancer Cell Lines

, 2013
A protein isolated from the bark of Crataeva tapia (CrataBL) is both a Kunitz-type plant protease inhibitor and a lectin. We have determined the amino acid sequence and three-dimensional structure of CrataBL, as well as characterized its selected ...

Flowering conditions affect flower longevity in Syringa vulgaris and cause changes in protein content, protease activity and expression of a KDEL-CysEP gene [PDF]

, 2016
Forcing is a method that is usually used to induce flowering in plants, independent of the natural blooming period. The temperatures required to start blooming in lilac in November are ca. 37°C causing degeneration of flowers.
