D-Serine reflects kidney function and diseases [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
AbstractD-Amino acids, long-term undetected enantiomers of L-amino acids, are now emerging as potential biomarkers, especially for kidney diseases. Management of chronic kidney disease (CKD), a global problem with its high prevalence and poor prognosis, is currently unsatisfactory due to the difficulty in estimating kidney function and in early ...

Glycosyltransferase Inhibitors:  Synthesis of d-threo-PDMP, l-threo-PDMP, and Other Brain Glucosylceramide Synthase Inhibitors from d- or l-Serine

open access: yes, 2016
The synthesis of enantiomerically pure (1S,2S)-1-phenyl-2-decanoylamino-3-N-morpholino-1-propanol (l-threo-PDMP) (1a) from l-serine, and the enantiomer (1R,2R)-1-phenyl-2-decanoylamino-3-morpholino-1-propanol (d-threo-PDMP] (1b) from d-serine is reported.

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

An Overview of the Involvement of D-Serine in Cognitive Impairment in Normal Aging and Dementia

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2021
Dementia, of which Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form, is characterized by progressive cognitive deterioration, including profound memory loss, which affects functioning in many aspects of life.

Cellular distribution of d-serine, serine racemase and d-amino acid oxidase in the rat vestibular sensory epithelia

open access: yes, 2006
Glutamate is the main neurotransmitter at the synapses between sensory cells and primary afferents in the peripheral vestibular system. Evidence has recently been obtained demonstrating that the atypical amino acid d-serine is the main endogenous co ...

ABL kinase‐dependent phosphorylation of SH proteins promotes their direct interaction with CRK family SH2 domains

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
CT10 regulator of kinase (CRK) and CRK‐Like (CRKL) are signaling adaptors driving cell adhesion, motility, differentiation, and proliferation. SH2‐domain containing (SH) proteins are enriched in YXXP motifs which when phosphorylated create preferred binding sites for CRK family SH2 domains.

Serine Deficiency Exacerbates Inflammation and Oxidative Stress via Microbiota-Gut-Brain Axis in D-Galactose-Induced Aging Mice

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2020
Inflammation and oxidative stress play key roles in the process of aging and age-related diseases. Since serine availability plays important roles in the support of antioxidant and anti-inflammatory defense system, we explored whether serine deficiency ...

D-serine reduces memory impairment and neuronal damage induced by chronic lead exposure

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2021
Although exogenous D-serine has been applied as a neural regulatory intervention in many studies, the role played by D-serine in hippocampal injuries caused by lead exposure remains poorly understood.

D-Serine Signaling and NMDAR-Mediated Synaptic Plasticity Are Regulated by System A-Type of Glutamine/D-Serine Dual Transporters

open access: yes, 2020
International audienceD-serine is a physiologic coagonist of NMDA receptors (NMDARs) required for synaptic plasticity, but mechanisms that terminate D-serine signaling are unclear.

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...
