Transgenic selection and underlying mechanisms in apicomplexan parasites
Transgenic selection markers have driven genetic engineering in apicomplexans, enabling precise, iterative experiments. This review discusses mechanistic details of drug selection markers, strategies for marker recycling, and practical considerations for several clinically relevant parasites.

Blocking protein quality control degradation by deleting the E3 ligases Ubr1 or San1 stabilizes many DHFR insertion and deletion variants that are otherwise partially unfolded. These hypomorphic variants regain folding at lower temperatures or upon methotrexate binding, revealing that PQC degradation can remove proteins that are still functionally ...

Vitamin‐Responsive Disorders: From Molecular Basis to Clinical Presentation and Therapy
ABSTRACT Vitamin‐dependent cofactors are essential for numerous metabolic reactions, and defects affecting their uptake, conversion, utilisation, or regeneration constitute a heterogeneous group of inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs). Although dietary vitamin intake is sufficient to sustain coenzyme synthesis in healthy individuals, it is insufficient

Inhibition of Dihydrofolate Reductase by Mofebutazon
Abstract Mofebutazon, Dihydrofolate Reductase, Non-Steroidal Antiinflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) Mofebutazon, in contrast to phenylbutazon, inhibits dihydrofolate reductase in a concentration-dependent manner. An apparent for mofebutazon and dihydrofolate reductase in the presence of NADPH as electron donor and dihydrofolate as electron ...

The selective nature through which coumarin compounds produced by different species of plants target PQS signalling in Pseudomonas aeruginosa and select for distinct phenotypic responses in key pathogenic organisms adds to the growing evidence of their utility as natural virulence suppressors. ABSTRACT Cell‐to‐cell communication in microbial systems is

Abstract Background and Purpose Noise pollution, particularly by aircraft, is a significant risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Aircraft noise activates stress response pathways in the brain, via the amygdala, the sympathetic nervous system and the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis.

NOX isoforms in the development of abdominal aortic aneurysm
Oxidative stress plays an important role in the formation of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), and we have recently established a causal role of uncoupled eNOS in this severe human disease.

Metabolism‐Based Biomarkers for Rapid Phenotypic Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing
Metabolic differences emerging after antibiotic exposure provide rapid phenotypic signals of susceptibility and resistance. This review summarizes metabolic biomarkers for rapid phenotypic AST, associated with nutrient uptake, respiratory activity, metabolic reprogramming, and enzymatic function. ABSTRACT The accelerating global crisis of antimicrobial
