Purification and Characterization of an Arene cis-Dihydrodiol Dehydrogenase Endowed with Broad Substrate Specificity toward Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Dihydrodiols [PDF]
Initial reactions involved in the bacterial degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) include a ring-dihydroxylation catalyzed by a dioxygenase and a subsequent oxidation of the dihydrodiol products by a dehydrogenase. In this study, the dihydrodiol dehydrogenase from the PAH-degrading Sphingomonas strain CHY-1 has been characterized.

An up‐To‐Date Review of Elesclomol and Its Nano‐Formulations in Cancer Therapy
ABSTRACT Background Elesclomol (ES) is a promising anticancer compound that exerts its effects through multiple mechanisms. It acts as a copper (Cu(II)) ionophore, forming an ES–Cu complex within cancer cells and inducing a novel form of cell death called cuproptosis.

Maple Syrup Urine Disease (MSUD) disease is a defect in the function of the Branched-chain 2-ketoacid dehydrogenase complex (BCKDH). It is caused by pathogenic biallelic variants in BCKDHA, BCKA decarboxylase, or dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase. The brain

This study explores the link between the gut microbiome, serum metabolome, and fatty replacement (FR) in chronic low back pain (LBP) patients. Findings reveal that dysbiosis in the gut microbiome and altered branched‐chain amino acid (BCAA) levels contribute to FR through the SIRT4 pathway, suggesting potential therapeutic strategies targeting gut ...

Pulmonary Hypertension: Molecular Mechanisms and Clinical Studies
The figure highlights the interplay of genetic and epigenetic mechanisms in pulmonary hypertension (PH) and their implications for therapeutic strategies. The genetic mechanism section features key genes implicated in PH pathogenesis. The epigenetic mechanism encompasses DNA methylation, RNA methylation, noncoding RNAs (miRNA, lncRNA), and histone ...
