Peptide-Incorporated Biomaterials Promote Regeneration of Peripheral Nerve Injuries. [PDF]
Peptide‐incorporated biomaterials provide precise, tunable biological cues that mimic functional protein domains to regulate behaviors of neurons, Schwann cells, immune cells, and endothelial cells, thereby enhancing axon elongation, Schwann cell support, inflammatory microenvironment modulation, and vascularization, offering a promising alternative to

Isolation, Purification, Identification, and In Vitro ACE Inhibitory Activity of Tyrosine‐Arginine Dipeptide From Red Millet Huangjiu [PDF]
This study identified a novel ACE inhibitory dipeptide, Tyr‐Arg (YR), from red millet Huangjiu using multi‐step purification and ESI‐MS/MS. Tyr‐Arg exhibited effective inhibitory activity with an IC50 of 158.93 ± 0.39 μM. Molecular docking and 100‐ns molecular dynamics (MD) simulations revealed a non‐competitive inhibition mechanism, where Tyr‐Arg ...

Peptidomimetic inhibitors of N-myristoyltransferase from human malaria and leishmaniasis parasites [PDF]
N-Myristoyltransferase (NMT) has been shown to be essential in Leishmania and subsequently validated as a drug target in Plasmodium. Herein, we discuss the use of antifungal NMT inhibitors as a basis for inhibitor development resulting in the first sub ...

Earlier, in experiments in vitro and in vivo, it was shown that the TrkA receptor agonist compound GK-2, which was a low molecular weight NGF mimetic, had pronounced angiogenic and antiischemic activity. However, it remained unclear whether this activity

Sum frequency generation spectroscopy of the attachment disc of a spider [PDF]
The pyriform silk of the attachment disc of a spider was studied using infrared-visible vibrational sum frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy. The spider can attach dragline and radial lines to many kinds of substrates in nature (concrete, alloy, metal,

Trypsin inhibition by macrocyclic and open-chain variants of the squash inhibitor MCoTI-II [PDF]
MCoTl-I and MCoTl-II from the seeds of Momordica cochinchinensis are inhibitors of trypsin-like proteases and the only known members of the large family of squash inhibitors that are cyclic and contain an additional loop connecting the amino- and the ...
