3D-Printed Protein Models as an Educational Tool in Biochemistry Outreach. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The abstract and complex nature of molecular biology often presents significant challenges for students at all levels of study. Traditional teaching methods, such as the use of 2D diagrams, may not fully convey the intricacies of these topics, leading to difficulties in comprehension and engagement. This study aimed to introduce 3D‐printed and

Role of cytoglobin, a novel radical scavenger, in stellate cell activation and hepatic fibrosis [PDF]
Cytoglobin (Cygb), a stellate cell-specific globin, has recently drawn attention due to its association with liver fibrosis. In the livers of both humans and rodents, Cygb is expressed only in stellate cells and can be utilized as a marker to distinguish

Funneled angle landscapes for helical proteins [PDF]
We use crystallographic data for four helical iron proteins (cytochrome c-b₅₆₂, cytochrome c′, sperm whale myoglobin, human cytoglobin) to calculate radial and angular signatures as each unfolds from the native state stepwise though four unfolded states.

Neuroglobin and Cytoglobin: Genes, Proteins and Evolution [PDF]
AbstractHemoglobin and myoglobin are oxygen transport and storage proteins of most vertebrates. Neuroglobin (Ngb) and cytoglobin (Cygb) ‐ two recent additions to the vertebrate globin superfamily ‐ have still disputed functions. Combining the data from all available resources, we investigate the evolution of these novel globins.

Phylogeny of Echinoderm Hemoglobins. [PDF]
Recent genomic information has revealed that neuroglobin and cytoglobin are the two principal lineages of vertebrate hemoglobins, with the latter encompassing the familiar myoglobin and α-globin/β-globin tetramer hemoglobin, and several minor groups.

Phytochemicals treat liver fibrosis in chemicals induced in‐vivo and in‐vitro liver fibrosis models. MMPs are potential drug targets by novel natural drugs for treating hepatic fibrosis. MMPs regulate ECM turnover, fibrolysis, and stellate cell activation through alternative mechanisms.

While the functions of the recently discovered cytoglobin, ubiquitously expressed in vertebrate tissues, remain uncertain, Antarctic fish provide unparalleled models to study novel protein traits that may arise from cold adaptation.

Despite recent advances in melanoma treatment, there are still patients that either do not respond or develop resistance. This unresponsiveness and/or acquired resistance to therapy could be explained by the fact that some melanoma cells reside in a ...

Cytoglobin at the Crossroads of Vascular Remodeling [PDF]
Since its discovery ≈15 years ago, cytoglobin has been studied extensively. Because it is found outside the red cell, cytoglobin is categorized as a nonerythroid globin, along with (in humans) proteins, such as myoglobin, neuroglobin, androglobin, and hemoglobin α.
