Pristimerin Attenuates Fibrogenesis and Inflammation Through TIPE1‐Regulated P2X7r Inflammatory Signaling Cascades in Hepatic Fibrosis

open access: yesPhytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pristimerin (Pris), a natural triterpenoid extracted from Celastrus orbiculatus Thunb. and Gymnosporia acuminata Hook. f., has various pharmacological activities, including anti‐inflammatory and anti‐tumor effects. Our study explored the influence of Pris on fibrogenesis and inflammatory modulation via the tumor necrosis factor‐alpha‐induced ...

A Cytoplasmic pH Sensor Redefines Gating in Bacterial Urea Channels and Acid Resistance

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Bacterial survival in acidic environments requires pH‐gated urea channels. Utilizing complementary approaches, we identify a conserved cytoplasmic glutamic acid residue as a pH sensor in UreI channels. Whereas Gram‐positive bacteria rely solely on this sensor, Gram‐negative bacteria employ a dual‐sensor mechanism with periplasmic residues, revealing a ...
